EST TO DATE-sHoWING OF

Catholic organization from March l

To most men in our country the
cause of classical education seems
a lost one. They appreciate the inn
portance of the high school and the
professional cause; but regard the
college with sinister eye, writes
Rev John AZ McClorey, S. j. Many
professional educators have been at
tempting to squeeze it into narrow
limits to make room for studies which
precede and follow it. They consider
the college a luxury a purposeless
consumer of valuable time They
favor vocational schools in which
youths are placed Immediately in di-
rect preparation for their vocation in
life. And they have been heard to
ask with a touch of impatience in
their tone what plea can be set forth
for a general course Of classics,
science and philosophy?
1t may surprise some to be told
that the promoters of humane studies
base their first and best claim to rec
Nognition not on utility, but rather on
the humanizing influence. of their
course. They think that even if no
ulterior purpose were served by clas.
steal pursuits. still these ought I'd
be. allowed to maintain their present
position Of Importance on their own

POETRY
A sHIP AT SEA.

 Soft the signal whistles bloT. Swift the wnirring engines go .s.st And q ship. has gone to4 sea sst'f She has passed the harbor bar.s Crossed the horizon line afaf.
 She has gone from you ands me. What's the course. on which she fares? Whats the cargo that she bears?
 Only just d troop of men;s And she seeks the bloody field Which the true hearts will not yield Will she come again? Only just a troop of boys. Armed with guns instead of toys So perhaps they seem; But no Crusader of old Ever faced a task more bold,
 Or dreamed nobler dream. They will drive the Hun-like beast, Gorged with his unholy feast.
 They will drive him to his lair: They will tear from out his hand Captured spoil and captured land
 But o. the babes and maidens fair! God go with you. gallant men. And bring you safe home again When your task is done; May He have you in His keeping. And there be no mother weeping, Weeping for her son! -Ninette M. Lowatex.
