which will be deeply felt, and hardly
s,ippied, in later life. Such conduct,
son the part of parents, would seem
to indicate that their sole aim in
begetting and rearing children is that
these children should work and gain
for them, and that as soon as pos
slble. They seem to demand an early
return or repayment for what they
have done. They do receive return,
trifiing as it usually is, but are they
not endangering the rich, eternal re-
ward of which they seldom or never
think?
It is quite true, and for these we
make due allowance, that there are
cases where widow is forced to send
the older children out to work as soon
as they are of working age. Again,
children should not be kept at school,
beyond the working-age, when they
show but little capacity for learning.
or when, through Indifference, or dis
taste, or bad influence, they are simply
wasting their time and putting an
unjust burden on the parents. Aside
from such cases, parents should be
willing to make great sacrifices that
their children should have every adj
vantage in education. What a noble,
inspiring example of this magnani-
nous spirit is had in those poor
parents who make sacrifices beyond
measure that their boy may be edu-
Gated for the priesthood or their girl
for the convent! Is it not true that
the majority of the parents OF priests
and nuns are of the poor, hard-Work-
ing type? The only reward they look
for is to see the son or daughter es-
Etablished in Gods service and to re-
ceive blessing, prayer, remem'
brance from them.

MUST PROVIDE SUIT
ABLE SECULAR EDUCATION.

The duties which parents owe to
their children partly regard their
bodies-in other words, their life and
well-being here below; and partly re-
late to their souls-that is, to that
eternal life for which God has created
them. For the children's temporal
welfare, there is the obligation OF
providing for their future by sending
them to such schools as will furnish
them with an education suitable for
their station in life, observes the
Brooklyn Tablet.
Religious training is, indeed, OF
prime Importance and is the gravest
obligation that rests ON parents. But
this does not mean that theretis little
or no obligation to provide secular
education for the children. In fact, a
good secular education should prove
an important adjunct to the moral
development of the young.
The direct object of secular educa-
ton is, of course, to provide for the
future temporal welfare of children.
A good education is undoubtedly the
best legacy that parents can bequeath
them. We are living in what is
termed an 'age of enlightenment .
that is of temporal enlightenment.
We may well say that our country is
rife with educational opportunities.
Never were SO many avenues of learn
ing open to the youth of the land.
The result is that the percentage OF
illiterates is very small, the great ma
jority possess a good general educa-
ton, while many have been benefited
by high school and college training
Under such conditions, to compete
successfully in the various trades and
professions and forms of business
good education is almost essential
AS notable example, observe how
eagerly and avidly the Jews seize
every opportunity of education. Thell
racial shrewdness tells them that in
education they have the stepping
stone to temporal gain, to worldly
welfare, the goal of their ambitions
Many are the sacrifices of Jewish
parents and strong are their exhorta
tions to keep their children at school
What is the result? You will fine

Recommended to the charity of the

'Grimard, P. r. NJ, who wishes to en-

it is just on account of the war that

MISSION NOTES.

The Rt. Rev. A. Hermel, S. H., Pic,
Vicar Apostolic of Tahiti, has come
TO San Francisco to supervise the
printing of a prayer book in the Tahi-
tian language. 1t will cost consider
able amount OF money, but is a nee
essary expense if the people of Tahiti
are to become grounded in the Faith.
Once printed the book will be a per-
manent aid to apostles of that district
and will make their work much
easier.
Bishop Hermel asks contributions

There had been some sort of hitch in
the matter of price, and Bob, being a
good real estate man, and so Judge
OF property values, had held out for his

money and time, Bob was an ideal hus-
