NEWSPAPERS
FEATURE D R
OF u. S. PRESIDENT

Paris, July 5.-President Wilson'S
Independence Day address at Mount
Vernon is printed with great promin-
ence by all the newspapers. Some of
them single out special phrases to
display as. slogans in the heaviest
type at the tops Of the front page.
The amount of space devoted to re-
cording the celebrations in France,
England and America, averaging ten
to twelve columns, obliges most of
the editorial writer's to postpone un-
til tomorrow, comment on the speech.
In its comment the Petit Parisien
says:
I'm soulful phrases. President Will
son portrays the deepest meaning of
the anniversary which France cele-
brated yesterday with all the Allies
noble spirit who guides the destinies
of the mighty transatlantic repub-
lie disregards details. He dominates
as from a height in every situation,
sometimes even h most obscure and
most tragic and sees only the broad
aspect which comfort and calm"
OF the other newspapers that COM
ment upon the address, L'Oeuvre lays
stress upon the presidents reference
to Russia, which nation, it declared,
the entente will not forsake. In
Humanite, Marcel sembot praises the
speech highly as an appeal 20 de-
mocracy and a declaration that the
peace Of the world must no longer be
left at the mercy of arbitrary powers.
The Libre Parole remarks that Presi-
dent Wilson replied "to the insolent
p~rovocation Of the kaiser in language
which will move all generous souls
Yesterdays Fourth Of July celebra-
ton likewise finds an echo in the
press. The Petit Parisien asked sew
eral noted personages for their inn
pressions of the event and today
prints their replies.
"A wonderful day for both coun-
tries" was Ambassador Sharp's COM
ment. 1T will have q wide reper-
cussion in the United States"
Marshal Jofre declared that July
Fourth would hereafter 'ebe an un-
forgettable date, opening q new era
in history"
Rene viviani, former minister Of

NOTE SENT TO
HOLLAND BY THE
ALLIED NATIONS

The Hague, July 5.-Washington
and the other entente allied govern
ments have sent a note to Holland TO,
the purpose of controverting state
ments in the Dutch press that the as
ISOLATED governments contemplate
making concessions regarding transit
over the Limburg railroad.
! The note says this would be con-
trary to the agreement made with the
Dutch government last April which,
while releasing the Netherlands gov
eminent from certain engagements
regarding the transit of gravel and
sand to Germany, did not contemplate
any concession regarding the transit
of military supplies.

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR
CATHOLIC ENTERPRISE
Travelling Libraries May Be Used
With Excellent Results-Efforts of
the Central Bureau of c. v. in This
Field.

! Attention is called to rather neg.
lected field of Catholic endeavor by the
recent ninetieth anniversary of the
Seamen's Friend Society of New York.
This society, in addition to it's other
branches of welfare work for seamen,
has, for many years past, been en-
gagged in sending out travelling librar-
les with ships at sea. During the past
year 10 new libraries were loaned to
ships. There are now 1860 libraries
of the society at sea, and these have
been accessible by first shipment and
reshipment to almost half million
men. There are also 1000 libraries
| in the United States naval vessels and
the United States hospitals. which
| iduals.
1t is this travelling library feature
that should appeal to Catholic organ
izations as desirable field for whole
some educational work. Many public
libraries have long ago introduced de-
partments for sending out books in
travel-cases, but, as far as we know,
| specifically Catholic efforts in this di-
rection have not been very prominent
The Central Bureau of the Central
Verein, some four years ago, began to
send out such libraries for the pur-
| pose of promoting the study of the
social question. The lilbaries, each
consisting of a neat substantial case,
containing some 80 books and pam
, phlets, have been sent to priests and
laymen on request, to societies inter-
ested in social study, and to study
clubs, a small sum being charged for
three months period. The value of
the enterprise has been proven; in
every case the renters gained substan-
tial benefit from the reading matter
sent them. This is all the more read
lily understood when it is realized that
the libraries are graded, some being
adapted to the needs of beginners in
social study, while others are arranged
with the view of supplying material
for those more advanced.
At present the Central Bureau of the
G. V. has undertaken a new enter
prise, the sending out of libraries to
chaplains in the camps. These lib
raries contain each some thirty vol
umes of good, attractive Catholic read
ing. Two libraries have been sent to
a chaplain at the U. S. Marine Bar
racks, Paris Island, S. c., and the
work will be extended as the demand
may arise. Mission Libraries are be-
ing prepared also for the winter
months. These cases are to be sent
to priests in isolated places through
out the country, who may derive bene-

not know itself, could not express in
Irish. For the which let all men bless
the brave old tongue and pray that it
may never fall silent by the hills and
streams of old Ireland-never until
long after the great nineteenth cen
tury of centuries with it's "enlighten-
ment' and it's 'paupers" shall be class

Opportunities for extension of this
work and the participation in it of
Catholic agencies are manifold. Much
good could undoubtedly be done by
sending out light reading to young
mems and young ladies' sodalities in
remote country parishes. Charitable
institutions especially, and penal or
reformatory institutions also, offer op.
portunties for activity in this field.
