sition. To call on the people OF
the United States even by implica-
ton to go to counting their beads
and saying Hail Mary's' comes
within the realms of freak legisla-
ton which it seems incredible that
sane men would engage in" The
fact that the "Angelus" minute
prayer is observed in the District
of Columbia, which is under direct
jurisdiction of Congress and the
President, does not seem to have
any weight; the Menace distorts the
meaning of the proposed law and
ridicules the custom already estab-
lished in the District of Columbia
and other sections of the country
Similarly the Menace opposes the
"Angelus" bill because the word
"Angelus" is used in the preamble,
and because the bill designates as
the moment for prayer that moment
at which the church-bells call the
faithful to prayer in honor of the
Virgin.
The Christian Science Monitor
has also devoted much space to the
"Angelus" bill, as we have indi-
Gated. 1t is gratifying to note that
this publication at least indicates
the classes or groups among whom
1t has found the most ardent sup
port of its opposition to the meas
ure. In a Special to the Christian
Science Monitor from its Eastern
Bureau" we read: william S.
Farmer, Most Worshipful Grand
Master of the New York Grand
Lodge, A. F.. and A. M, told a
representative of this bureau on
Monday that he was personally OPP
posed to the Senate resolution
which has come to be known as the
Roman Catholic Angelus affair.
Emphasis is laid on the fact that
this is Farmers personal opinion,
and was not given to this bureau as
the official view of the leader of
the Masonic fraternity in this State.
He did, however. give permission to
this bureau to say that personally
he was opposed to the resolution.
Protests against the resolution con-
tinue to go forward 10 Washington
from this city and vicinity, and
clergymen and laymen are becoming
more alert to the real danger lying
and others continue to declare their
surprise that the Senate should
countenance any such sectarianism
as is evident in the resolution.
Samuel Wilson, Assistant State SUI
Derintendent of the Anti-Saloon
League of New Jersey, made
gesture of emphatic protest when
informed of the affair. and his re-

NEXT FIGHTING LOAN.

AS the campaign for the Fourth
Liberty loan approaches the Ameri-
can army in France moves on to-
ward Berlin. Under our own lead
ers the great American army has
won a notable victory. The fourth
loan must be a great success. The
fourth Liberty loan is a fighting
loan. When our soldiers on the
battle front are Drawing death, each
one Offering to make the supreme
sacrifice for his country and the
great cause, we who remain safely
at home surely should give them
every support, should make every
sacrifice to strengthen them. If
we can not fight ourselves we can
make our dollars fight. II is a
great cause for which America is
engaged in this war; it is a great
struggle in which the very hope of
the world is bound up that is being
waged in Europe and on the high
seas. 1t is an honor to have a part
In it and all Americans, all of their
lives, will be proud of the part
they had in it or ashamed of their
failure to do their part. The fourth
loan is fighting loan. Every sub
scriber to the loan strikes a blow
for liberty, for victory.

ply, which is a type of others, was
League official, that organization
being undenominational. have
nothing to say; but as a Presby-
terrain 1 have very strong opinion
on the subject, and that is that the
ritual of no denomination ought to
have recognition in any branch of
the Federal Government, and the
Angelus being, as l understand,
prayer addressed to the Virgin
Mary, and not to God, is decidedly
out of place in this connection.
Many similar expressions have
been used to create additional OPP
position against the Angelus bill.
The fight seems to be entirely too
petty to deserve serious considera-
ton. The reference to the Angelus
In the bill is contained only in the
preamble. and there the phrase
reads: Whereas, What is called
the Angelus. the practice of prayer
for one minute at noon each day
for the success of our country in
the existing war, is being observed
in the District of Columbia and
some other parts of the United
States" Besides there is no ref
erence to the Catholic Angelus. The
purport of the proposed act is
evidently non-sectarian, because
Catholics observe the morning and
evening Angelus as well as the
MONDAY call to prayer, while the
bill refers only to MONDAY prayer.
Moreover in the city of Washington
itself a siren, mounted on a lofty
building, is used to announce the
minute" of PRAYER while the
church bells toll their wonted call.
Consequently in the sense of the
law the universally agreed moment
for prayer Is simply the stroke OF
IL, and this moment is always in
dicated by the bells of Catholic
churches. If any community de-
sires to adopt a different signal no
one will prevent such action.
Neither the Christian Science
Monitor nor the Menace have adj
duced proof that the bill to which
they object is fostered by Catholics
IN an organized manner. In fact
careful perusal of the Catholic
press has failed to show any
marked enthusiasm over the bill, or
any special efforts directed toward
securing its adoption on the part
Of Catholics. c. B. of C. v.

ALONE AT NIGHT.

A woman who had lost her hus-
band did not complain of the wear
ing work she was compelled to do
for the support of her little family
she did not repine at the poor
clothing, wretched lodgings and
sparse food to which they all had
been reduced, but "Oh!" she said.
lit is so lonesome to have no one
to come home at night!"
Would we but stop and reflect
for a moment on the words of this
faithful wife mourning for her
honest, Woodworking husband, we
could not withhold our pity. How
long and lonely were her days as
they succeeded one another in
dreary monotony ever accompanied
by the hopeless remembrance that
there was no one to come home at
night. During the four years OF
this heartless war we have pitied
the wounded soldiers and the starv-
Ing orphans, but we have thought
too little of the brave woman who
suffered constantly the dull heavy
pain of having no one to come
home at night.-The Liguorian.

OUR BOYS.
These are my jewels"-a Spartan
mother.

mother.
! Our boys are going over,
Yea, teaming millions more
! To swell our mighty armies
Encamped on foreign shore.
They go in youthful manhood,
Impatient for the fray,
To deal the foe his fatal blow
And sheathe the sword for aye.
Go, valiant hordes and legions,
Crusaders one and all,
And fight for human freedom
Till fiends enthroned shall fall;
Strike hard and give no quarter
Till mad ambitions lust
Vile vultuIe prey shall fall away
To nothingness and dust.
They go with high ideals,
To loose the CALLING chains,
To break the yoke of bondage.
Nor think of selfish gains.
They go for us-to shield us
From "Kultur's" baneful dream,
Nor think to make for honor's sake
The sacrifice supreme.
Brave laddies, gallant, splendid,
Our thoughts are still with you
Tho ships that bridge the ocean
Transport you from our view.
Our hands will deftly fashion
Each comfort love can hint,
Till war is done and victory won
Wen serve you without stint.
The Lord of Hosts is with US,
Dear mother nature knows
And from her horns of plenty
Abundance substance flows;
From mine and mill and furnace,
From orchard. garden. field,
With lavish hand she fills our land
With all that earth can yield.
What. then, are paltry dollars
That we should dare withhold
From soldiers, sailors, allies,
Our millions manifold?
With them the boys are smashing
Won Hindenburg's dread line.
While Boches beat quick retreat
With faces toward the Rhine.
o, give. and give rejoicing,
Twill hasten that glad hour
When hatred must surrender
To live its Wanted power,
With nations reunited,
Forgetful of their wrongs,
From pain untold there shall unfold
The worlds great renaissance.

in an address to pre-medic students.
Nearly all medical students are
undecided IA to what they should do
at this time" DR.. Myers stated.
Many feel that they should drop
their work In school and Join the
colors. while others are anxious TO
continue their medical work. This
country should be guided by the ex-
periences OF the allies"
DR.. Myers then pointed out that
when the war started England.
France and Italy sent all their medl-
cal students to the front. However.
they soon realized their mistake
Now those same governments have
ordered many medical students to go
back to school and continue their
work, Just as they would order a
man to go into active service.
