COMING LATE TO MASS.

Why is it, asks an exchange, that
some people come into church just
at the last moment, and even a few
minutes late? Let us leave aside the
consideration of the fault committed
by missing any part of Mass OF
obligation. Let us regard it from the
devout and reverence and the courte-
Gus and businesslike side of the ques-
ton. If we knew we, had to catch a
train for our daily work, we would
do tive would plan our time in a
businesslike way in order to do it.
Yet we trifie with Gods time on the
one day He has asked us to give to
Him exclusiVely. If we were invited
to dine with a friend, we would not
rush in, huriedly and out of breath,
at the last moment. That were dis

how differently we act toward Him!
We delight in long conversations with
those we love; but we hurry into

left the altar, as if we were fairly

WHY PRAYERS ARE NOT
ANSWERED.

President Wilson appointed Sun
day, October %, as day on which
to unite in beseeching the Almighty
to incline the hearts of men to
peace, that the slaughter overseas
may cease Faith that He has the
power to do so, coupled with submis-
sion to the Divine Will. are essential
concomitants of such prayers.
''The question comes, are we giving
real allegiance to the Deity whose
aid we implore? Have we prepared,
or are we preparing, the way for the
realization of present or future petit
tions? If we have faith in the efficacy
of prayer, should we not bring up our
children in the same belief?
we have to acknowledge that the
religious and ethical education of
youth is sadly neglected. More time
is given to geography than to ethics
or religion. An hour a week in Sun
day school, possibly thirty hours a
year suffice. Many have not even this.
An investigation recently made in a
Massachusetts community discovered
that the average Protestant child re-
ceives twenty-four hours of religious
instruction yearly, as against $50 for
Jewish children and $50 for Catholic
This calls to mind the school principal
who, feeling something had been
overlooked in the curriculum, ordered
the teachers of the several grades to
take five minutes each week for in
struction in ethics!
Granting the advantages of the
so-called university system of Sun
day school teaching now in vogue,
these are not supplemented at home
by any of the religious observances
! once a part of family life There
seems to be neither adequate time nor
inclination for them. The lack of. rev
| erence for things a former generation
held sacred is discouraging. Children
are versed in the Nibelungenlied and
familiar with Scandinavian sagas, but
have scant knowledge Of the Bible, the
least frequently opened volume in the
house.
Children learn by repetition and
by example; they take their moral
tone from the atmosphere about them
The modern home is worldly; parents
are Indifferent. How can youth be
otherwise in such surroundings With
no ingrained or acquired standards 81
moral conduct, no religious ideals, We
reap the results in jails and reforrna

call. He was astonished to find a
princely carriage awaiting him at the
entrance of the poor Monastery. Sew
eral men hurried him into the car
riage. and, with an apology, bandaged
his eyes, assuring him that no harm
would befall him.
After a long drive the carriage
stopped and the Father was led
through an extensive courtyard, over
number of stairways and through
series of corridors. Finally his eyes
were freed and he found himself in a
splendid apartment.
Then he was told that a sick person
required his assistance in an adjoin-
| ing room. Then he found himself face
| to face with an elderly woman who
showed traces of a former beauty.
She stretched out her hands towards
him with joy saying, 80 Father, how
happy am I to see you! Please hear
my confession and give me the last
Sacramento, because l have only q
short while to live" The Father pre-.
pared her for death and then gave her
a last farewell in this world. After
| leaving her he was again biindfolded
and brought back in the same myster
| ious way in which he had come He
learned afterward that the dying pen
itent was the mother of the Sultan
who had granted her this last consola
ton.

A RIPRoARING PATRIOT.

This war has forced literature to
place the priest and monk upon a
higher plane, and public and private
correspondence from all parts of Eu-
rope have been lavish in praise of the
bravery and courage of the hitherto
often misunderstood priest, says r. G.
Cleaner in the Columbian. Here are
some words from private letter to
his parents from an Ohio lad in the
midst of the war. He is a member of
the American Ambulance Corps and
says:
THE brancardiers stretcher-bear-
ers,. are unsung heroes. There are
many priests among them, and our
best friend, kerbrat, is one of them.
He speaks English quite well, but it
is not that alone which brings him
so close in our affections. He was a
missionary before the, war, having
spent eight years in Ceylon before he
came to France to enter the army as
matter of conscience.
"a little man he is, Of about 35
years, with full beard and big gentle
brown eyes. He seems to be the kind
of which saints are made. |, at least,
have never seen such a lovely charac-
ter as this little brancardier with the
courage of Hercules and the gentle
ness of a woman, and his manner
with the wounded. He is a priest, not

fatherly way. We are always mes

a lower plane of humility. But when
he is around we are not permitted to
leave the abs while the car is being
loaded. 1t is no use to risk yourself
unnecessarily, Y lie says. If we ask why
he should so expose himself while he

LITTLE NORA SULLIVAN.

Little Norry Sullivan, she's gone to
join the nuns;
Amt it strange, the convent often
gets the widest ones?
Maxim fun an frolic, you'll see thin
here today;
Look around tomorrow an, bedad,
they're gone away!
Gone away from all the fun,
Gone away to be nun;
Faith, it's quare an strange it is,
achorra, as l say.
That's the kind that Norry was; a
ivelier never slept;
Do you mind how fast she ran, how
crlessly she lept?
Everything her brothers did, twas she
could do the same;
CAS- for quiet Kelvin, sure she put the
lad to shame).
Out she'd be from morn till night,
Playin' ball WIS her delight,
Norrys side was sure to win whin she
was. in the game.
Man alive, but twas herself was just
the merriest lass,
Hardly could keep still while Father
Toole was sayin' Mass;
Thryin' hard to hold her eyes upon
her little book,
But the open window oft would lure
her longin'- look.
Then you knew her mind has slipt
From her prayerbook an had skipt
Out among the meadows in the
softly-growing grass.
Sure, it seems like yesterday saw
her up an down,
Runnin like redshank through the
streets o. Carrick town;
Double-knockin' peoples doors an
pullin' peoples bells,
Maxim people nervous with hel
screeches and her yells.

sure, it's hard to know.
This you may be certain, no one
wanted her to go.
Neither of the parents like the steI
she took at all,
An there was one boy that felt as il
he'd like to bawl.
But twas Norry didn't mind:
All their words were only wind;
Said she had it in her heart an mus
obey the call!
Little Norry Sullivan, God mark YOU
soul to grace!
Take my blessin' on your heart, an OF
your happy face!
Take my blessin' on your work, an OF

your hand to do.
An whatever be His will,
May your heart be merry still

A VILLAGE ON THE ROOF OF ST.
PETERS.


One of the strangest villages in the
world is built upon the roof of one
of the most famous edifces-the
great basilica of st. Peters at Rome.
1t is SO completely isolated from the
city below that it may claim to have
an independent existence.
1t has no name, but its inhabitants
are known as the San Pietrini, the
folk of st. Peters They are all at
tached in one way or another to the
service of the Church on whose roof
they live. Some of them have been
horn there, pass their lives there and
die there. The village is nearly four
hundred years old There are sew
cral rows of houses, cottages, with
sometimes a second story, and in
many cases attic rooms in their roofs.
There. are shops, and little open
spaces. with fountains, and gardens
that supply vegetables and flowers

On a church roof, unseen from be.

cornices and baI,istrades of the IA

SERIOUS THOUGHTS.

The following little gems are culled
from the sermon of the Rev. DR.. John
Cavanaugh, C. S. c., president of No
ire Dame University, delivered at the
formal opening of the institution:
Cherish ideals of perfection and
labor upwards towards them.
1T is a religious duty to take rea
sonable care of your health"
Nothing great or noble can ever
be expected from physical coward
ice"
ITO study energetically every day
is for you moral duty"
IF youNdo not study faithfully you
are immoral
Accuracy in thinking lies at the
foundation of all great performances
THE most powerful detriment OF
your life will be your poor spiritual
quality
The moral power of the American
people must be in the end the meas
ure of its triumph over its enemies
in war;
Faith is the most priceless posses
sion you will ever own
CAS- treason is the supreme disloy
atty against government SO apostasJ
is the supreme disloyalty agains

In the long run there is not sc
much difference between saint anC

HEROES,


If so it be we are forbid by fate
To do the deeds that make a hero
great.
Let's do our duty each one as he
should,
And, lacking greatness, let's at least
be good.
Oh, there are seeds of kindness to be
sown
In hearts that never have such kind
ness known;
And words of gent1eness and actions
true
Are always possible for me and you.
IT'S true these seem of little worth
because
They do not win for us the worlds
applause.
But noble actions are not judged by
size,
The great intent the action magnifes
And though our names the world may
never fill,
The ear of God may find them sweetel
still.
