Almost Fatal Mistake

Mistaking bottle of carbolic
acid for a bottle of paragoric
almost cost the life of the little
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Homer
Posey the first Of the week.
The mistake was discovered
Just in time which saved the
child's life.
The Posey baby had been
fussing during the evening and
the mother had gone to the
family medicine chest to get
some paragoric. Seventeen
drops of the liquid was poured
into a spoon, but Mrs. Posey
having a cold could not tell the
difference in smell. and when
it was given to the baby he
closed his mouth and the liquid
run down his lips, burning
them quite badly.
1t is the superstition that the
car bolic acid was placed in the
paragoric bottle by a teamster
a year or so ago and in some
manner got into the family
medicine chest where it was
not discovered until this week
when the mistake was made.

A NEW COLLEGE
IN CENTRAL AMERICA DIRECTED
BY JESUITS OF THE UNITED
STATES.

With due solemnity the cornerstone
of the large new st. Johns College,
at Belize, British Honduras, which the
Jesuit Fathers direct in Central Amer
lea, was recently blessed and laid.
High officials of Church and State
lent dignity to the occasion and took
part in the ceremony. Rt. Rev. Fred
erick c. Hopkins, S. j., Bishop of
Athribis, with Mgr. Ruiz, Bishop of
Chiapas, Mexico, escorted by two
Knights of ST. Gregory, assisting in
the ceremony, represented the spirit
ual authority. Sir Wilfred Collet, K
c. M. G., governor of British Hondu,
ras, fianked by the chief justice and
colonial secretary, stood for the civil
power. The stone was blessed by Rt
Rev. Bishop Hopkins, welded into
place by five college boys, natives of
as many different republics of Central
America, and set by the Governor.
The old college of st. Johns, which
has been in existence twenty years,
now numbers on it's roll more than
140 boys, from all the neighboring re-
publics The old buildings, however
are no longer suitable and could not
accommodate the ever increasing
number of applicants for admission.
The new college will cost approx.
mately $4,000.

Australian Bishop Dead
THE LATE RIGHT REVEREND
DOCTOR dunno.

Right Reverend Dr. Dunno, Bishop
OF Wllcannia, whose death at his resi-
dence, Broken Hill, n. S. W., has been
announced, was a native of Rhode.
Kings County, Ireland. He was born
in 1916, and pursued his studies in
Carlow College for the diocese of Sgd
ney. On his ordination he was, at
the request of his relative, Very Rev.
DIR. Dunno, V. G., Goulburn, allowed
to devote himself to the mission in
that diocese, where for 16 years he
labored with great zeal.
He was remarkable in his church
building work. He achieved a great
success as President of the Diocesan
College. In the Albury district a con-
vent, hall, and orphanage stand as
monuments of his energy.
In 1887 he was consecrated Bishop
of the new diocese of Wilcannia,
which comprises an area of about
100000 square miles.
When DR.. Dunno took charge the
diocese contained seven parishes with
eight priests to look after the welfare
of it's 1000 people, and with 20 Sis
ters to teach and guide the no
scholars attending it's five schools. In
% years the diocese had grown to
twelve parishes, with II priests and
146 Sisters, to whom was entrusted
the welfare of 20,141 people. In addi-
ton, there were 26 schools, attended
by 1850 scholars.

more fully into that heritage which is
peculiarly yours. Thus there de-
wolves upon you grave responsible
ity to maintain the Order of the
Visitation in all the fervor and de-
tachment in which ST. Francis left it.
The Church, the Foundress of All
Orders.
The observation is this. Spiritual
children are prone to believe that
they are somebody, merely because
their spiritual father was somebody;
they are prone even to look down
upon other congregations because OF
the more Respondent glory of their
own founder. Such distorted views
have received utterance at least in
the past. This is a great misconcep-
ton. The high foundress of all re-
ligious orders and congregations is
the Church and with the Church none
can compare st. Jerome was the
greatest doctor of Scripture but the
Church acknowledges more Scripture
than he acknowledged. ST. Augustine
was the greatest exponent of Dogma
but the Church in dogma advanced
far beyond St Augustine. st.
Thomas was the Angel of the Schools
but the Church cleared up his
thoughts which on few points were
hazy to say the least. st. Francis de
Sales was a master in leniency but
the Church is more lenient in teach
ing frequent communion than st.
sea so all these doctors poured their
streams of wisdom into the bosom OF
the Church. She clarified them all.
Whoever, therefore, has the Church
for his guide has more learned,
more profound, more enlightened
teacher than any one of the great
saints of God. st. Francis de Sales
knew this and therefore he willed
that the Order of the Visitation would
be under the immediate supervision
of the Bishop, the official representa-
tive of the Church. When we have
the Church for our GUIDE we nave
that universal mother who blesses all
holy endeavors of religious and secu-
lar, clustered and n-cloistered, con-
templative and active, that all may
run together in the building up of the
body of Christ. One state is truly
more perfect than another. But one
Christian is more perfect than an
other not on account of the state pro-
fessed but on account of the work
accomplished. Without contention or
pride, therefore, but with holy emula-
ton and edificatiOn let all in the diff
ferent walks of life live sOberly, just
ly and godly in their several ways
pursuing good works, giving glory to
God, and rejecting the model of all
models Our Saviour Jesus Christ.
