but we have never come across recrim
nations of that character in a Flemish
| journal. Many time we have lis
tened to discussions by simple villag
| ers on the sound of the bells as they
sat listening to them on a peaceful
summer evening. And they knew eX
actly which were the sacTistans in the
country who were skillful in ringing
the bells and which were not. Sound
ing the bells was an art.

refugee camp at Uden, behind this

which comes over from our country
and then see Flanders before me and

BELLS
Yes, Immediately ne introduced the
bells into his story, and l felt and IN
derstood his doing it, because it
seemed so natural.
When the bell tower of Mannekens-
we're fell to pieces under the violence
of the war, the villagers carried off the
fragments of the bell with them in
their flight, as if they were relics.
And how often the bells crop up IN
the language of the people,
That will take you to the last
bell,' says the West Flanders woman
when somebody makes life unbearable
for her. The last bell is the one that
sounds at the end and announces to
the village that a soul has departed.
"'Quick, into the house with you,
boys; the dinner bell is ringing, they
say to boys who are fooling around
and are in danger of making them
selves late for dinner.
This comes from the dinner bell
(noeneklokke), which, in many vii
lagos, even now rings at the noon hour.
"On Good Friday the bells are 81
lent; they have gone, it is said, to
Rome TO get Easter eggs for the chill
dren; and so on Holy Saturday the
children of the people come out to lis
ten and watch, and stand at the foot
of the bell towers waiting for the first
sound of the bronze voices.
For, after the day of mourning, the
bells begin again on the eve of Easter.
And at the first note the boys and
girls run away to their homes to hunt
for eggs.
THE bells ring to usher in holt,
day or for the procession and
the pilgrimage. They ring on Christ
mas eve and Christmas day and Eas-
ter, Pentecost, or All Saints day; they
mark the division of the old year from
the new.
And now, the powerful state which,
by its war, has violated Belgium, takes
away the BELLS. But, after all
why not2 We may expect everything
from those who, on August 4, 1914,
invaded our territory and marked their
route by fire, ruins, tears and blood.

WHAT SOCIALISM MEANS IL rs
AIMs-IT is OPPOSED TO VEL
FARE OF UNTRY-RESoLU-
TIoNs OF SOCIALIST CoNVEN-
TION.

Speaking at Rochester, Mimi. on
Memorial day Daniel w. Lawler said
in part:
What do we mean by Socialism?
The political theory of Socialism is
the theory that the state or the gov
ernment should own and control all
instrumentalities of production and
distribution. The word Socialism is
opposed to Individualism. Socialism
means that the collective government
must take over all wealth and ali
human activity now owned or con-
trolled by individuals. 1t means with
regard to land owners that there must
be no private ownership in land, but
that the government must own it and
that the government alone shall give
individuals the right to use it as the
government shall determine. Social
ism teaches that laborers shall be
dependent entirely on the state for
their employment and that their wages
and conditions of employment shall be
fixed by the state. Socialist writer's
and publicists who are logical teach
that as there can be no private owner
shin even in personal property, the
tools and the instrumentalities with
which the laborer works shall not be
long to him but to the state.
If the principles of Socialism were
applied to Minnesota today not a sin
ole farmer in Minnesota would OWL
foot Of land and not a single me
chanic would own even the tools witt
which he works, The price OF labol
as we'll as the price of farm products
would be fixed by the government
IT is plain that legitimate ambition
temperance and industry would b'
crushed by such a system, and tha
men would become the creatures AM
victims of the state. So far for tn
meaning of Socialism in its industrial
or economic application.
This is the sense in which it is mos
often discussed, and the common be
lief is that Socialism, after all, mean
simply the taking over by the stat
Of certain functions now performed b.
nriyate individuals, such as railroads
telegraphs, elevators, warehouses an
slaughter houses. This taking ovel
however, is a very small part Of S.
ciaiism and is not distinctive Of sc

A Fleming, moved to sorrow by the
cupants of Belgian territory, has an
article in a great Dutch paper, the
most characteristic passages of which
are translated below:
What world of poetry it (the
German decision.-Ed) awakens sud
denly in ones mind. 1t makes me
think of the bells of Flanders, of all
our belfries and our bell towers,
which in times of peace sounded SO
divinely.
I'VE have some celebrated bells,
such as Melchoir, the bell of victory,
in the tower of the market place of
Bruges, which adds a deep note to the
sound of the forty-eight bells of the
chimes, one of the most sonorous in
Europe. We still seem to hear Carolus,
in the lace tower at Antwerp, joyously
ringing on holidays or tolling lugu-
briously on solemn and sad occasions,
like the day when We accompanied
that unforgettable burgomaster, Jan
van Rijswijk, to the grave. We were
at the tower of st. Rombout of Ma
lines, near to Salvador, and Rumoldus,
and Carolus, and Maria, and Lubertus,
and Magdalena when JET Denim Sc
skillfully and musically managed his
keys We think of the belfry of Alost,
which was the very first, according to
tradition, for Coecke, the inventor of
chimes, lived in this little city in the
eleventh century.
And how many of the villages Of
Flanders, unknown outside of their
own country, possess a veritable treas
ure in bells. We still vividly recall
our surprise when, on visit to the
bell tower of little Lisseweghe, we
found ourselves suddenly ir the pres
ence of six great ancient bells. At the
town hall of Dam'ne, the ruined, near
Bruges, is the oldest bell of Flanders.
Since 1893 this bell has been sound,
ing from the little tower shot out
from the ancient and now defunct city
of Jacob van Maerlant.
"But where shall we stop if we once
begin to speak of the bells of Flan-
ders? "A
"The brutal ordinance of Won Fal-
kenhausen has struck our people deep
within their soul, for the bell is bound
up with Flemish life. The bells are be-
loved in Flanders more than they are
in other countries. Abroad we have
sometimes read paragraph in news
paper voicing complaints on the sub
iect of the ringing of too many bells,
which especially in the early morning
disturbed the slumber of the citizens;

a Red Cross meeting of 5000 Poles in
New York on Monday.

Jesuit Honored in Japan

A recent number of America con-
tains news of the appointment of the
Rev. Mark ]. McNeal, Sd, graduate
of Georgetown University, Washing
ton, as lecturer in English literature
in the Imperial University at Tokyo.
He is the first American SO honored
by the Japanese. Father McNeal is
thus offered an excellent opportunity
of constant association with the pro-
fessors of the University and of close
familiarity with its students. He will
doubtless be able incidentally to re-
move many false notions regarding
Christianity now existing in Japan.

About two years ago, Mr.. Charles A.
Lindbergh, then member of Con-
gress, introduced a startling resolu-
ton in the House of Representatives.
A comment on this document will be
found on our editorial page The pur-
port OF the resolution was to inVesti-
gate the Catholic Church, in capite ct
membris, from the Pope down to the
humblest layman. In view of the fact
that Mr. Lindbergh now seeks to guide
the destinies of this State, in which
| there are more than one-half million
Catholics out Of population of more
than two millions, it may be enlighten-
ing to read, even today, the astounding
charges once sponsored by the present
candidate for Governor.
In the Congressional Record of
August p, 1916, the following resolu-
tion was presented in speech by Mr..
Lindbergh in the House of Representa-
tives:

encies in the unshaped and undeVelop-
ed common law of England.
Since the Reformation part of the
general policy of Protestant historians
has been to deny as far as possible
the debt the common law of England
owes to Canon Law and Roman law,
because these were supposed to
smack of Popery. But scholars have
been slowly compelled to admit that
debt, though not always to its full ex-
| tent.
In the year 115S, the Emperor Fred
erick | took under his protection the
scholars who resorted to the schools
of Italy, and decreed that they should
travel without hindrance or molesta-
ton, and that when any one COM
planned of them they should have the
option of defending themselves before
their professors or before the bishop.
| This action of the emperor served
as basis on which many privileges
were subsequently granted to Bologna
and to other schools. The first known
grant Of similar privileges to the in
| stitution in Paris was made by Philip
| Augustus in 1900, but it is likely that
lit enjoyed such, privileges and i'm
munities much earlier than that,
! Before either Paris or Bologna could

In Paris three schools were especi-
1 ally prominent, ST. Victor's, St. Gene

THE TERRIBLE DARK AGES
UNIVERSITIES ARE THE PROD.
UCT OF THAT MOST ABUSED
Observation-Disclosures OF THE
POPE.

Universities are the product of the
much abused Middle Ages. says the
Casket The beginning of the earliest
are obscure; but much information is
available concerning the origin of
those that were chartered in the thir-
teenth century. During the eleventh
and twelfth centuries a revival of stu
dies took place in Italy; in medicine in
Salerno; in law in Bologna; in theol-
ogy in Paris.
The medical school in Salerno was
the oldest and the most famous of its
kind in the Middle Ages. Previous to
the twelfth century Bologna had been
famous as school of arts, while in
regard to legal science it was far sur
passed by other cities; for instance
Rome, Pavia and Ravenna.
1t was due mainly to Inerius and tC
Gratian that it became within a com
lparatively short time the chief centei
of teaching of law, not only in Italy
but in all Europe. Inerius introduced
the study of the whole body of civi
| law.
In consequence, Bologna, long before
| it became university, attracted large
numbers of students from all parts %
Europe; and it's teachers, as they be
came more numerous, attained unriy
aled prestige.
