in intimate relationship for several
years as member of the Sacred Con-
gregation of Propaganda and as Rec

gratified with the splendid progress
of Maryknoll in which the authorities

Holy Father now looks to America to
come to the rescue of the Catholic
missions which, are so seriously af

CATHOLIC FIGHTER FROM

Bugler Harold A. Probst, of 314th
Infantry, now on the fighting line, has
a good opportunity to see what man
ner of men our soldiers are proving
themselves to be. And in letter to
his home folks, he asserts that the
Sisters to whom he owes his education
as we'll as religious training, likewise
made man of him. Writes this brave
soldier of the Republic: 5a
II go to Mass regularly and am
glad that | have a faith which is sc
helpful during such trials as we have
l find a great comfort in visiting the
church and praying. 1t carries me
back to those sweet days with Sister
Bennett and Sister Nathaniel at the
Immaculate Conception School. Their
training, which showed us how to re
spect and love our God, is the training
that has made us men who can go for

FOOD SAVING PLAN
NEW RULES TO BE SENT OUT IN
CONSERVATION WEEK, BE-
GINNING OCTOBER 27.

Food Administrator Hoover has
called upon the American people to
set aside October 81 as Conservation
Sunday. During that week there will
be distributed to each home in the
United States a new home card, indi-
eating the 191S-1919 program for food
conservation. In order that the i'm
portant features of this vital program
be presented, Mr.. Hoover has prepared
message to be read during Con-
servation week.
When the interallied food council
was held last summer, the needs of
the Allies were computed and the re
sources from which they could be
met were reckoned. Corrected as the
returns from TIE harvest were, ascer.
tanned and the shipping possibilities
were developed, the schedules show
that America must this coming year
send for our armed forces and the
Allies half as much again of food sup
plies as last year. In place of eleven
and three-quarters million tons the
shipments this year will be seventeen
ard one half million tons. We are
pledged to send fifty per cent more
food and from substantially the same
stocks as last year there must be in
| creased conservation to accomplish
ths result. The inteTallied council
was told that whatever the war food
program OF the Allies requires we will
endeavor to meet. This is an obliga.
ton measured in the terms of human
life that rests on every American.

A PROPHETIC PASSAGE
WORDS ONCE UTTERED BY. LATE
ARCHBISHOP AT AN EPisco-
PAL CONSIDERATION.

At the conservation of Bishop Leni-
han of Great Falls, Mont, Archbishop
Ireland preached on "The Priesthood .
Among other things he said: 1T is a
great and glorious age, and l honor
it; but it has great misfortune; it
forgets God. Onward it goes, without
God, taking no heed of Him, at times
even telling Him to depart from His
own creation. We shudder at the
consequences. For, God forgotten
what is left? Passion is let loose,
men become as animals.
What is to stand at the threshold
of the home and say that marriage
must be respected, that woman must
be queen of the home, and that the
child must be honored-if God is for.
gotten? What is left to hold back the
great armies of anarchy to shake the
pillars of the social fabric? Oh! great
century, that art hurrying on unto de-
struction, unless thou knowest how to
bring Christ to men and make the
twentieth century one of faith. -.. -
Free America. no hindrance here

ST. PAUL COURTS AT UNITED
MEETING ADOPT RESOLUTIONS
OF SYMPATHY ON DEATH OF
LATE ARCHBISHOP IRELAND.

At their booster meeting Sunday
evening, October 10, the st. Paul
courts of the Catholic Order of For
esters adopted the following resolu-
ton:
Resolution.
The Catholic Order of Foresters
meets tonight under the shadow of a
heavy bereavement. The Church of
it's faith has been darkened by the
withdrawal of one of its lights of the
first magnitude; the busy world of
action has been called to lamentation
over the removal of a mighty con-
structive and unfolding spirit; all
agencies for good have been deprived
of the aid of superlatively strong
and helpful personality and influence.
In the presence of such loss as has
been occasioned by the death of His
Grace, Archbishop Ireland, the
speech of the human tongue falters,
the feelings of the human heart fail
to find adequate expression and the
voice of eulogy is overwhelmed by
the magnitude of the task it would
gladly perform.
One consolation, however, comes to
all in the knowledge that the light
which has gone out on earth is shin,
| ing brightly on other spheres; that
! the genial radiance it has shed upon
| the world will continue to illumine the
paths of men even though its source
| is no longer among them, and that
the fructifying spirit and personality
will still exert their power through
| the achievements they have wrought
the high example they have given ant
| the forces for accomplishment they
have set in motion in many channels
! of productive usefulness.
The Catholic Order of Foresters
| shares in the esteem felt for Arch
bishop Ireland by all classes of 'peo
! pie in all civilized countries 1t know:
of his devotion to the Church, his emf
| nent ability, his high character, hi:
| pure life, his sterling Americanisn
and his splendid record of great deeds
| It reverences him in full measure fol
all these, but it's members feel mos
keenly the personal loss suffered D!
each in his death. For he was alwaT'
cheering and comforting in his inter
course with them, present help il
every time of need, a spiritual guide
of unfailing truth and steadfastness
and an inspiring companion in all SO
/ cial relations. His memory amonI
them will be kept freshened by thu
proud tears of admiring affection, ant
to them it will always be fragrant witt
the odors of heaven.
ITO live in hearts we leave behint
is not to die"

Association and the Salvation Army.
DR.. John R. Mott director general of
the united war; work campaign, said
recently:
Victory Boys will be the name
of the boys Earn and Give Division
of the campaign. These million boys
behind a million fighters will help to
provide recreation, =" entertainment,
home comforts and opportunities
for study and religious activities to
those who are fighting our battles and
will render valuable service to the
country by their work at time when
there is greater need for workers than
ever before.
THE maximum age limit for enroll
ment will be twenty yeas, while the
minimum may be determined locally.
Generally boys under twelve years
will not cbe sought. Each boy will de-
eide the amount of his pledge. 1t
costs approximately SIS to provide the
privileges of the seven war work
agencies for one American soldier or
sailor for five weeks"
Bishop Muldoon, chairman National
Catholic War Council, says:
Iheartily commend the effort to en-
roll "A million boys behind a million
fighters" as Victory Boys" and an
adequate number of Victory Girls"
| to accept the same challenge in the
E"Earn and Give Division of. the
United War Work Campaign.
"A boy or girl by 1enlisting in the
"Earn and Give" Division can have
l,as direct personal part in the Great
World War. Each of them can thus
fight and help win.
What an inspiration it will be to
| each of our fighters to know that
one boy or one girl has earned and
given $500 for his comfort and cheer.
We cannot furnish an enlisted man
better proof of the solid backing of
a closely united nation, nor can we
find better way of doubly reassuring
him in his great trials, of the sincere
personal interest we have in him than
by enlisting one million or more of
| our young people to make personal
| sacrifices for him.

make use of the accumulation of lost
prayer books and rosaries that are
left uncalled for in the rear of the
