PRIEST AND DOCTOR.

No two professions so often come
together and work so tremendously as
the doctor and the priest. The bed
side of the afflicted is their meeting
place. One works for the uplift of
the body; the other for the benefit of
the soul. "Send for the priest" is the
doctors advice, when he preceiyes
danger. Have you sent for the doc
tori" is the question from the priest,
when he notes the seriousness of his
case. Together they are the benefac-
tors of the stricken. Each is helped
by the other. The doctor gives the
real condition of the patient to the
priest, who is guided thus in his ac-
ton. The patient, after Confession
and Holy Communion, is calm and
quiet, and is in a better condition to
fight off the disease. The doctor
knows that his help is limited; that,
in spite of his utmost, the soul will
take its departure, and, graciously, he
turns over his patient to the priest,
saying: Il have done my best; do
yours, for the soul which is about to
start on its journey to eternity

The first step required is to estab-
Hlish minimum wage boards, which, in
some countries are becoming common
Under state control these boards fix
the just minimum of remuneration ac-
cording to time and place. Such legis-

The ultimate object must not be to
keep the workers in permanent de-
,pendence upon the capitalist class. The
aim that every Christian man and
woman ought to keep steadily in view
is to enable the workers themselves
to share as far as possible, in the
ownership of the land which they till

NEW ZEALAND PRELATE
FAvoRs MINIMUM WAGE.


What is the minimum comfort re-
quired for a family that it may live in
accordance with it's Christian dignity !?
asks Archbishop Redwood of New Zea-
land.
In answer Ito be. practical) single
detail may suffice. A suitable home
requires at the very least three sleep
ing-rooms-one for the parents and
one each for the boys and girls of
the family. besides two additional
rooms for all other purposes. Food,
clothing, furniture, and opportunities
for recreation ought also to come up
to this standard of decency and self
respect
Surely, this is moderate demand
for any family wishing to lead a true
Christian life. Yet the realization of
even this result would necessitate the
regulations by the state of the hous-
ing problem. Because the whole bur
den of expense should not in justice
fall upon the employee and the con-
sumner, while the landlord is left free
to raise his rents whenever the need
is greatest, since workers are obliged
to accept his terms.
The radical destruction of the abus-
es, cropping up from the unearned in,
crement may involve the necessity OF
offering compensation To present own
ers.
There are objections to- the mini
mum wage, but they have been sui
fiefently disproved by experience
Women, generally, have not been
through the minimum wage paid to
men, thrown out of employment;
wages have not been depressed to the
level of the legal minimum; and prices
have not risen to appreciable heights
as a result of such legislation wher
ever it has been tried. The Academia
hardships that fell upon some PEG
pie are far outweighed by the good re
suits.
In the case of workers who are un
able, for one reason or another, tt
earn even the minimum wage, the,
can have special permits allowing
them to work for less. Similarly

mum wage is impossible for q time il

SYMPATHY FOR THE AGED.

There is no place at which we may
sit and learn the principles and poll
eies that enable us to make the most
of life as at the feet of the aged Other
things being equal, they are our wisest
folk. The heads whose gray hairs are
crowns of Righteousness, who have been
adding grace to grace and strength
to strength, while many a year has
come and gone, whose inward man has
grown into beauty and power while
the outward man has declined, should
attract us for what they know, appeal
to our sympathy and command our
reverence. Turning aside to commune
with these old ones lovingly and ten
derby, We may learn, too, as from no
other, how to live to be happiest as
we'll as most useful, and catch the
aroma of that mellowness and sweet
ness that so enriches the possible joys
of this earthly pilgrimage, and is SO
distinguished an element of the meek
ness of those who are now almost ma
ture for the garner on high. Lack of
appreciation or positive neglect of
these old ones in our homes and social
circles is a prodigious wrong and a
type of heather heartlessness. For
my own part, old age is most attract
i've, and when l see the sflver-white
hair lying on a. serious and weather
worn face like moonlight on stately
old tower, have a strong tendency,
whether l know the person or not to
lift my hat in token of my affectionate
esteem and reverence.

the Catholic press takes against the

struggle; it is engaged in an Intending

dumb and suffering her organ of
speech. He will endow the Catholic
press with tongues of fire!
The future of the Catholic press, in
steadfastly giving the public what it
needs, rather than what it wants,
thrills me. The Catholic literature
has more potential opportunities for
training the nascent mind in this and
the coming age than at any time in
history.
This is an oppoFtune moment for
the Catholic Church. Saturated with
blood and tears, faint with spiritual
despair, the harried world cries out
for help. What shall we do? arises
from the /yearning heart of the pas.
sion torn human race. Nothing is
secure, the ground trembles beneath
our feet. Where, in this day OF risk,
is our help? lg u bail a1..
n This upheaval is the attendant of q
Imew influx of the Divinity into the

new dispensation. The Catholic
Church is alone secure; it is the only
safeguard, the only refuge. The world
| of atheism, OF agnosticism, Of Prot
estantism, of natural theism. is learn

hands are raised, seeking help.

and good works; let us fling wide oui
