Catholic Church

Rr. Rev. Bishop Wehrle has issued
pastoral letter to his churches, re-
ferring to some duties regarding our
Catholic soldiers, to-wit:
The Catholics of the U. s. must do
all they can to protect and strengthen
the Catholic faith of the soldiers who
for the protection of their country
must leave their homes and will be ex-
posed to very many dangers of soul
and body. They need all the spiritua
help and strength that comes from the
Sacramento and from proper PASTORAL
work.
The United States Government had
ordered that all Catholic action in this
line be done under the supervision of
Catholic Military Chaplains and of the
Catholic National War Council with
officials of the Knights of Columbus
as representatives of the Catholic
body before the United States War
Department.
The National Catholic War Council
desires that in every diocese local
Catholic War Council be organized.
l have ordered that local Catholic War
Councils be established at Bismarck
for the counties of Burleigh, Emmons
and Mclean; at Mandan for the coun-
ties of Morton, Grant, Sioux, Oliver
and Mercer; at Dickinson for the coun-
ties of Stark, Dunn, Billings, Hettin-
ger, Adams, Bowman, Slope and Col
den; at Minot for the counties of
Ward, Renville, Burke and Mountrail;
at Williston for the counties of Will
liams, Mckenzie and Divide.
In the training stations within the
diocese, provisions should be made to
bring the Catholic soldiers closer to-
gether, to encourage them to attend
Mass and receive the Sacramento and
to give them the necessary opporturE-
ties for it; to give them healthy recre-
alton and sound reading matter.
Catholic societies of men and ladies
can do much in this line.
In the large training camps where
many thousands of soldiers will be con-
centrated, provision must be made by
the National Catholic War Council for
Catholic chapels and club rooms, etc;
for sufficient morally sound and inter-
esting reading matter; and principally
that sufficiently large number of
priests attend to their religious and
spiritual needs; every Catholic SOL
iier must have an opportunity to
hear Mass and receive the Sacra-
ments.
