Allocution of the HolyFather

to censure books and other writings
which had no small influence in the
establishment, or rather the restora-
ton, OF the fusion of the two congre-
gations-for, indeed, originally they
were one and the same, only in the
course of time it seemed advisable to
separate them.
Nevertheless, as there were several
reasons why they should not be Joined
again Immediately, it pleased our pred
eceSsOr to postpone the matter for a
time, to carry out then what was pos
sible, to leave the rest of the matters,
which he had proposed, to be carried
out by his successors, if they so wish
ed, when the times should permit.
Now, therefore, the obstacles being
removed, we, in clear agreement with
out predecessor, having called into
counsel those same distinguished men
who helped him in carrying out this
work, before the new code is promul-
gated and in order that in it nothing
may be left to be desired on our part,
too, have decreed that the charge of
condemning evil writings belong to
the Sacred Congregation of the Holy
Office, that to it may be proper and
peculiar what belonged up to now to
the Sacred Congregation Of the Index,
which by this shall now cease to be.
But in order that by this extra
charge the Holy Office may not be
overloaded with affairs, we ordain that
everything which appertains to indul-
gences shall henceforth be given to
the charge of the Apostolic Peniten-
tiary, whose regular custom it shall
be to adiudicate on all things which
concern the use and concessions of
indulgences, saving the right of the
Holy Office to see to those which touch
dogmatic teaching about new pray
ers and devotions" indeed is
counseled by the affinity of the things
with which the Apostolic Penitentiary
is concerned as proper to it.
BY these changes it seems that we
make the ordination of the Roman
Curia as perfect as is humanity pos
sible, and at the same time we carry
into full effect the noble intention of
our predecessor.

Our flag was still there


The British attack on Baltimore
had failed! Where was chat band
who so vauntingly swore" and "a
home and country they'd leave us no
more?' Their blood had washed
out their foul footsteps pollution; no
refuge could save the hirelfng and
slave from the terror Of fight, or the
gloom of the grave"
Amid the excitement and suspense
of that night, Mr.. Key had jotted
down verses on an envelope which he
had in his pocket; other verses he had
composed in his mind. While he and
his party, after having been released,
were on their way shore, Mr.. Key put
his poem on paper, relying partly on
his notes and partly on his memory.
On shore, where the party was greet
ed with enthusiasm, Mr.. Key handed
the verses to a scholarly friend. The
latter had the poem set in type and
printed on handbills. In an hour,
hundreds Of copies were in circulation
and that same day all Baltimore was
jubilantly reciting the verses. Thus

National Union of
Catholic Young Men
INITIAL STEP TAKEN AT MEET
ING IN CHIcAGo-ORJECT is TO
UNITE ALL ORGANIZATION OF
CATHOLIC YOUNG MEN.

The initial step towards the fOrma-
ton of a great National Union OF all
the Catholic Young Mems Societies in
this country was taken, when the
representatives of the Young Mems
Institute, and the Catholic Young
Mems National Union, the Gonzaga
Union of the Central Verein and the
Young Mems Sodalities met at the
Loyola Law School, Chicago, a few
days ago.
discussion of the aims and objects
of these associations brought out the
fact that in nearly every case the same
ideals were fostered and could be ac-
complished by combination of forces,
and at the same time, by united effort,
provide for our Catholic young men
the same material advantages which
are offered by organizations outside
the Church to attract young men Of all
faiths.
Civic centres in all large cities,
where, besides the advantages of ath-
letic exercise, reading rooms and night
schools will be established, and home
for those who must live in boarding
houses will also be part of the institu-
ton. 1t will also provide for the
stranger who comes to the city for the
first time and enable him to be sur
rounded with Catholic influences.
The merging of the various unions
into one national body is the first step
in the realization of this great project
All the representatives present stated
| it to be their belief that this could be
accomplished without any great diff
Guilty. Meetings of the various organi-
cations will be held shortly to take
definite action.
With this merger accomplished, the
next step will be the Harvesting OF
the various forces in the cities, with
a view of forming compact organiza
ton to carry out the civic centre idea

parish club; on the contrary, every
thing will be done to strengthen it

Conscripting Priests
in New Zealand
THE MILITARY SERVICE ACT MAY
BE INTERPRETED MORE BROAD
LY-BlSHOP WILL BE PERMIT
TED TO APPLY FOR EXEMPTION
OF PRIESTS DRAWN BY BALLOT.

1t is not strange that the Catholics
of New Zealand were shocked when
they learned that a large number Of
priests were amongst the men who
received notice that their names had
been drawn in the first ballot under
the compulsory clauses of the Military
Service Act. The recognition OF the
sacred character of ministers of
religion, and of the undesirableness
of subjecting them to military service
as combatants, is one Of the things
in connection with the war for which
the British Government is entitled to
credit. The action Of the Govern
ment Of New Zealand was a new de-
parture from the general custom of
the Empire and threatened to create
a good deal of trouble. Fortunately,
the Ministers appear to have agreed
to a compromise. A deputation
representing the Catholic hierarchy
waited on the Minister of Defence, and
it was, it is understood, arranged that
if the ecclesiastical authorities-that
is the Bishops-appeal for the eXemp-
ton of priests whose names have been
drawn in the ballot of the first divi-
sion, Mr.. Myers, the Minister respon-
sible, will recommend to the Military
Service Board that they be exempted.
1t cannot be said that the arrange
ment is quite satisfactory, and it is
hoped that the Catholics of New
Zealand will agitate until the COM
plete exemption which is granted to
clergymen elsewhere throughout the
Empire is granted to their clergy.
The Catholics in the British
dominions have done and are doing
their part for the Allies in the war,
but the idea of their priests having
to shed blood as combatants is in
supportable to them.

THE GOLDEN ROSE
1T WAS BLESSED ON LAETARE
SUNDAY-CUSTOM DATES
FROM 937.

After his Mass on 'Laetare Sunday"
as it is called, the Holy Father per-
formed the beautiful ceremony of
blessing the Golden Rose, according to
time-honored custom. This Pope Bene-
dict XIV will later on send to a mem
Der Of some royal family or to some
parsonage who merits we'll of the
Church as his predecessors have done
for over a thousand years. Who the
favored one may be his Holiness
alone knows. Henry VI, king of
England, received the Golden Rose in
1444 from Pope Eugene ", James II,
King of Scotland, received it from
Pope Innocent VIII. Martin V sent it
to the republic of Florence in 141S;
and, to show his gratitude for the
magnificent reception given to him on
the occasion of a visit there, he raised
the Florentine bishopric to the dignity
of an archbishopric. Henry VIII Of
England 'Fidei Defensor,' was the
happy recipient of the Golden Rose no
less than three times. Julius III sent
it to Mary, Queen of England in
1853. And to skip over a few hundred
years Centuries are of small matter
in the history Of the Eternal City,,
Pope Plus TX sent the rose in 1S47 to
Princess Maria Adelaide, Consort of
Victor Emanuel II of Savoy.
To many of the great ones of the
world has the Pope sent this mark of
benevolence ever since the year 937,
when Leo VIII introduced the custom

A Remarkable Campaign
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE, MAKES
A NEW HIGH RECORD IN
RAISING FUNDS.

Under the direction of Mr.. Charles
J. Sheffield, who is we'll known for his
work in the Northwest, a most unusual
campaign was brought to a close last
week in Wilmington, Delaware. An
organized effort was made by more
than one hundred workers in behalf of
the parish Of st. Thomas, of which
Rev. John Connolly is pastor. The OBJ
ject of the campaign was to raise
100000 in ten days. Nothing like the
result has been seen in the history Of
Catholic churches in America for, on
behalf Of a single parish containing
two hundred and seventy-fve families,
located in city of one hundred thou
sand, the huge sum Of Sill 1926 was
raised. When the result was an
nounced on the closing night many
prominent men of the city and state
were present, including Governor John
G. Townsend, and the Right Reverend
j. j. Monaghan, Bishop of Wilmington.

PRESENT-DAY BAGDAD
CITY LIES IN HEART OF ANCIENT
BIBLE LAND-IT HAS A LONG
AND CHECKERED HISTORY.

Bagdad, recently captured by an
English army, lies on both banks of
the Tigris River, in the very heart of
the ancient Bible land of Mesopotamia
It's streets are narrow, crooked and
dirty. The buildings, the most of yell
loWish brick, the monotony of their
hue being relieved by beautiful colored
thing, especially in the courts and in
teriors. Many groves of date trees
and other palms give the city a pic
turesque appearance, to which the nu-
merous mosques add greatly. There
are many enclosed gardens; indeed,
the whole vilayet (of which the city is
the capitaD, is famous for its orchards
and splendid gardens. A very large
section outside the city itself, however,
is desert, due to the neglect of the IT.
rigation canals. In recent years these
canals have been repaired, and it may
yet come to pass, that, with modern
methods of cultivation, the former at
fractions of Bagdad may be revived,
and it may again merit the distinction
which won it the name of Getty of
Orchards"
Bagdad has had a place in history
for several thousand years. Within it's
environs are pointed out the tombs of
Joshua, Ezra, Ezekiel and the well of
Daniel. An antiquity is claimed for
it reaching back beyond the times of
Nebuchadnezzar, of Babylon. Upon
the present site stood far older city,
which had a splendor and influence
that have immortalized it in song and
story.
In 763 A. D., the old city, then in
decay, was rebuilt with stones from
the ruins of Ctesiphon, also known as
Madam, famous Assyrian capital,
some distance southeast. Bagdad was
afterward enlarged and beautified by
Harun al Raschid, tho ruler whose eX-
ploits have been immortalized in the
Arabian Nights. 1t has many times
been a center of Warlike struggle:
Jenghiz Khan sacked it in 1858, and

Petty Industries of France
SMALL FARMERS FOLLOW SIDE
LlNES-MANY USEFUL ARTI.
Giles IN WOOD ARE PRODUCT
OF THEIR LATHES-A CONSID-
ERABLE INDUSTRY is THAT OF
MATCHMAKING

There is nothing which illustrates
France to greater extent than the
use to which the peasants put the ma
tive woods, as we learn from the Lon
don Catholic Times. Great quantities
of fans, paper-knives, brushes, spoons,
salt-boXes, scales, flutes, spindles, fun
nels, and boxes are turned out by the
peasant workers in such places as
Fresnaye, near Alencon. Wood is OBJ
tanned from adjacent forests, each
peasant having his own lathe, which
he works when not engaged in culti-
waiting his garden or his field. Carvers
and makers of furniture and souvenirs
are to be found in the rural districts
all over France-other articles which
are made are bellows, tapestry, pot
terry, metal work, telescopes, watches,
etc.
In the case of watches, which is one
of the most important small industries,
particularly around Lyons, it is inter
esting to find that, although these are
largely made in the homes of the peo-
pie, yet hardly any single man can
turn out complete notwithstanding
that even in-these small industries the
advantage of the division of labor is
recognized. At Cluse electric power is
transmitted to the homes of the watch
makers from power station adjoin-
ing the river-and the yield of indus
try in this district alone is 100000
francs annually. Schools for training
Watchmakers have been established at
Besancon, which is the great watch
making center of France. There is no
machinery used, but labor is we'll or
ganized and sub-divided. About 5000
workers in Besancon produce from
400 900 to 100000 watches every year.
These industries are all carried on
in conjunction with farming, and it is
this that has helped to give France her
strength of manhood, her intelligent
citizenship and her enormous wealth.
The present war has revealed to many
how great France really is; it is no
new-found strength, but the product of
a combination of intelligent applica-
ton to skilled industry and healthy
life in the open country. As much as
$3.50 per acre per annum is made from

earliest disputes in the Church. Some
who had personally met disciples of
the Apostles took part in it. Provin-
cial councils were held in all parts
of the Christian world Pope Victor
called to consider this question the
first Roman synod. After giving the
matter fullest consideration he decid-
ed the case as it now stands. 1t is
not at all probable that the question
will ever again be opened. We have
heard of no such proposed eXamina-
ton.
