IRON FOUNDRY IN WAR AREA
How Women of France Are "Doing
Their Bit" to Keep the Wheels
of Industry Moving.

An interesting narration OF opera
ton under unique and difficult condi-
lions of an iron foundry In the war
area is given by the correspondent OF
a British paper writing from the firing
line In France. He relates: One does
not see much foundry work out here'
but few weeks ago was billeted IN
a town near by, and actually saw
cupola in full blast. / at once got per-
mission to have look around, ana
was greatly surprised at what / saw.
The foundry was very primitive al
fair-just little jobbing shop-and
was mostly run by French women ana
girls, superintendent by a few men.
These women were making work up to
three or four hundred pounds In
weight, and in a little side shop some
half dozen women were making COM
ponent parts of machinery by the
simple method of bedding-in. / after
ward saw some of the finished work,
and it would put to shame the work
done by many of our so-called molders
at home. The women work in ordi-
nary dress, and work very clean ana
exact in both iron and brass, and also
under shell fire and air raids. In the
shop was a great hole where Ger
man had dropped bomb the night De
fore, but the women still worked on

THISTLE IN SCOTCH HISTORY
various Traditions Concerning liz
Adoption by the Highland Clans
as Their Emblem.

"The thistle of Scotland is said 10
be the oldest national flower and ira
dition traces its adoption TO the reign
of Alexander III and the battle of
Larga" (when an attacking Dane
stepped upon a thistle and inv0lun-
tarily gave the alarm. whereupon the
Scots drove the invaders out).
Another account Of its adoption is
Of q very different character" writes
katherine N. Beals in Flower Lore and
Legend. about the middle Of the
fifteenth century a company OF stern
faced men met in the council cham
bcr of Edinburgh. and the occasion OF
that meeting was TO discuss the adj
visibility of substituting the thistle
for the figure of St. Andrew on the
national banner. The proceedings of
the council were secret, but soon after
the thistle appeared upon every Scot
fish banner. The national motto might
have been adopted with appropriate
ness on either of these occasions:
Memo me iInpune lacessit' The polite
reading of this is, No man attacks
me without being punished but the
more simple translationAof earlier days
WIS, Touch me who daresv while the
original is supposed TO have been. 'NVha
dare NEEDLE wi me?' Another inscrip-
ton which sometimes accompanies the
Scottish emblem reads: 'Ce que D!eu
Garde, est bien garde;' That which
God guards is well guarded
"1he thistle appeared officially for
the first time during the rei@n of
James II, who had it placed on the
coinage of the kingdom and adopted
IL as his own badge. 1t also appeared
r1on the coins in the reisns Of James
", Mary Stuart, James V and James
VI. The thistle merke was n silver
shilling. The thistle dollar was a dou-
Bile merke. Each took its name from
the emblem ON it,"

Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of
Baltimore, Primate of the Roman
Catholic Church in the United States
takes an lnalterable position with ref
erence to divorce
Divorce today is the one great
black spot upon American civiliza-
ton" he said 1T is terrible, un-
speakable, outrageous. The number
of divorces in the United States i'll
proportion to the population is the
greatest in the world. Think of that
stain on our escutcheon!
THE salvation of society depends
upon the family. The salvation of the
family depends upon the preservation
of the marriage bond for all time. Dis
solve the marriage bond and you vir-
'tually dissolve society.
Marriage is a woman's destiny. 1t
is the aim of her life. Her work
should be for her husband, her chill
dren and her home. Anything that in
terferes with her in this, her true
sphere. is wrong and divorce does
this
divorce is one of the crying evils

ly interested. Our stand is unassail-
able There should be no divorce at

"The one great black spot" of
which Cardinal Gibbons complains

MAY AND MARY.
A Month Dedicated To The
Queen Of Heaven.

The month dedicated to the Queen
of Heaven has never been lovelier
than this year. Day after day of
beauteous weather. More gracious
sunshine never streamed from bluer
skies, never has the green earth been
more profuse with flowers, nor the
birds more joyous; every hour of the
day and night their ecstasy rings in
the woodland dales. Soft, sweeping
airs, bearing the intermingled odors
of a thousand blooms, thrills the veins
heart wonders that nature can go
smiling on while there are fields dyed
with the blood of human beings. But
Justice is the Law, and the last
farthing must be paid. There is no
greater love than the sacrifice young
lives are making now, and Christ is
the Reward, the Resurrection and the
Life. The earth bursts into bloom and
the birds come back and sing, so can
we go rejoicing about Gods Will, for
we have His promise; we know that
time soon passes and is forgotten,
while there is no death or separation
in eternity, no war or hatred, no
anguish or loss for those who have
entered therein by the true Way. For
us Christ was crucified, for us He
laid down His life Shall we hesitate
to make return? Oh mothers who
mourn, you have a Comfortress in
affection. Mary, the Mother of God,
who from her high place in the Heart
of Christ, unites her prayers with
yours; she well knows every grief that
tears your hearts, for she stood at the
foot of the Cross and watched them
cruelty her Divine Son and Saviour;
she saw His most perfect body strip
ped and broken, His kingly head
crowned with shameful thorns, His
Sacred Heart, that Vessel of Infinite
Love, pierced with the cruel sword;
she felt to the depths of her pure soul
the anguish that shook Him as He
paid the awful price of redemption for
an ungrateful and undeserving world.
What does she not know about a
mothers heart? Mary, the Queen OF
Heaven, the Mother of God, no suf-
fering mother goes to her in vain for
sympathy and intercession, for her
heart, as Simeon phophesied, was
pierced by sword.
Devotion to Mary, not that false, I'M
real, distorted worship accredited the
Church by uniformed non-Catholics,
but the real true. unexaggerated devo-
ton practised by Catholics and those
non-Catholics whose hearts and minds
are right with God and reason is most
pleasing to God and meritorious to the
soul.
Son, behold thy Mother" Mother,
behold thy son." said our dear Lord on
the Cross when He gave His Virgin
Mother TO His beloved disciple, by
that act making her the mother of all
generations as He is the Saviour. How
well the beloved disciple of the Lord
realizes this, Who should be afraid
of loving Christ's Mother? Love OF
her but leads the more tenderly to
| Christ, while love of Him naturally
causes sweet affection for His Mother
for He that is mighty has magnified
her. therefore all generations do call
her blessed. Very appropriately the
annual May procession at st. Mary s
in honor of the Blessed Mother was
held this year on Mothers Day, the
same day on which the mothers OF
men were honored by their children.
