DISABILITIES UNDER WHICH
CATHOLICS LABOR IN ENGLAND

Mr.. Justice Ewes recent decision in
England against the validity of a be.
quest for Masses-a decision for which
he declared the law and previous
judgments left him no option-serves
to emphasize the disabilities under
which Catholics in England still labor,
and certain anomalies in their Incl
dence within tho United Kingdom.
The king is no longer compelled at
his accession to denounce our worship
as "superstitious and idolatrous," yet
the law still holds the Mass to be
superstitious purpose for which money
may not be bequeathed; though a
bequest for Masses which is thus void
in Great Britain, is valid charitable
gift in Ireland AS Lord Halsbury
puts 1t in his Laws of England: "The
relieving acts, however, do not render
valid trusts which are superstitious
and at the same time not charitable
The result is that requests for Masses
Or prayers for the repose Of souls,
whether Of the testator or of others,
are void for superstition. :. For the
same reason, a bequest for maintain
ing lamp in a CHURCH or for incul-
eating the doctrine of the supremacy
Of the Pope is void. In Ireland, how
ever, requests for Masses generally,
or in commemoration Of named dead,
in Ind nj nd fn
are valid, charitable gifts. The
Roman Catholic Relief Act, 1929, was
aimed, inter ALA, at the suppression
and prohibition Of religious and monas-
tic orders within the United Kingdom,
and accordingly gifts for the use of
a Franciscan convent, for the educa-
ton and maintenance of priests of
the Order of St. Dominic in Ireland,
to establish community Of Christian
Brothers for teaching purposes, and to
Franciscan Order to provide for the
celebration of Masses, have been held
void as contrary to the policy of that
statute"
And the odd thing is that large
section of the British public devoutly
believes that Great Britain is pre-
eminently the land of religious liberty.
Thus Mr. Hugh Stuffed, in the cur
rent number Of the National Review"
says: "Ours is beyond all others the
land of federation" 1t sounds impress
sive-but is it true? The Catholic
Union has set out some of the penal
disabilities to which Catholics are
subject; but there are others. Thus
If the king were to become Catholic
he would instantly forfeit his throne.
In other words, he is refused that
elementary liberty of conscience which
he would not willingly deny to the
humblest of his subjects. Recently
the Westminster Gazette" thought it
worth while to quote the gossip of a
Belgian paper which connected the
name of the Prince of Wales with that
of a princess of the House of Savoy.
Then came the inevitable comment
explaining why such an alliance would
be impossible. But the strangest ex-
hibition of religious intolerance is the
law which insists that no man. how
ever high and rare his qualifications
for the post, shall be lord-lieutenant
Of Ireland If he happens to belong to
the religion which is professed by the
vast majority of its people. And yet
Mr.. Stuffed can exclaim with honest
convictions: "Ours is beyond all others
the land of liberation"

A CRUClFX ON THE BATTLE
FIELD

The Washington Post has printed
cable message from George R. Brown,
it's special correspondent with the
American army in France, which
makes this remarkable statement:
"On the broad highway that leads
straight into the German lines at
Montdidier is famous and beautiful
shrine. On the lofty crucifix the white
figure of the Savior is almost life size.
1t stands at crossroads, and the
French signboard on post at the turn
of the road informs the passer-by that
Montdidier is distant ten kilometers.
That road has been shell swept for
weeks, for over it troops, and munition
trains, and supplies for the men direct
ly at the front, are taken every day.
Christ has been under German shell
fire here since the offensive began on
May 4th, but although bombs and
shrapnel have fallen all around that
NS"NIN oGNO OIs
What is it, above all other things,
that makes a woman beautiful? That
helps to make her wise, kind, gracious
and helpful to those around her? Pa
thence. Patience-always and for
ever.
Patience is of two sorts. First, it
indicates the ability to preserve your
equilibrium under eXasperating cir
cumstances. 1t is, therefore, closely
allied to self-control for without self
control you cannot be patient.
Then there is another kind of pa
thence. 1t refers to the manner in
which you bear the ills of life, the
spirit in which you endure hardship
and struggle in any of it's ten thou
sand shapes.
When you suffer quietly-that is,
with a placid and still trustful soul
patience develops and becomes forti-
tude.

Catholic Chronicles
LORDS PRAYER IN 1888.

The Lords Prayer was different in
1883 as printed by CaXton, the first
English printer. This is how he gives
it.:
Father our that art in heavens, hal
lowed be Thy name: Thy kingdom
come to us; Thy will be done in earth
as is in Heaven; our every day bread
give us to day; and forgive us cure
trespasses, as we forgive them that
trespass against us; and lead us not
in to temptation, but deliver us from
all evil sin, amen.

is YOUR NAME HELEN?

Then you will like the story of a
man who met little girl whose name
was Helen and said to her: "Of
course, l know that your name is
Helen, for it is right on your face"
"How's that?" asked the child.
"Well,' he replied, "H stands for
your hair; e for your eyes; l. for
your lips; E-now there is another
E-what can that mean? Why, yes,
that stands for your ears; and N
stands for your nose. So you see that
your name is right on your face. Any
one meeting you in the street would
know, by just looking at you, that
Helen must be your name"

WORDS OF PRAISE.
How is it that words Of praise are
so ,grudgingly spoken, and so few per
sons are found in the reail trade of
that desirable commodity?
Faultfinders are everywhere. You
run against them at each street cor
ner. They are as plentiful as thorns
on rose-bush; and quite as disagree
able to come in contact with. Blood
letting and leaving a scar seems to
be their chief vocation in life; and
their greatest joy is found in pointing
out the typographical error in the
paper, or in directing the attention Of
the audience to the false note in the
song, or the ungrammatical expression
in the speakers language.
An editor was warmly praising a
contributor for an article written for
the paper, when mutual friend stand
ing by, said:
BE careful what you say. You may
make him vain"
There is no fear Of that" replied
the other; cts the true way to get
the best from him."
There is deal of sound philosophy
in the remark. An ounce of praise
will produce better results than a
pound of blame. Many boy who
would have become brilliant success
in life had a word of praise been given
at the proper time, has become utterly
discouraged and eventually quite care
less in the performance of his duties
simply because his best efforts have
been adversely criticized.
CATHOLICS DO NOT BELIEVE
That indulgences permit them to
commit sin.
That indulgences remit their sins
committed.
That indulgences can be bought.
That the mere confessing of their
sins to a priest merits forgiveness.
That they can have their sins for.
given without resolving to commit
them no more.
That all sins are equally heinous in
the sight of God.
That the slightest sin will damn a
soul.
That they can pay for Mass.
That they can buy the ransom of a
soul from Purgatory.
That sermons should be preached
in Latin to Englih-speaking congre-
cations.
That Mary's Immaculate Concep-
ton means that she had no natural
father.
That they are prohibited from pray
ing directly to God.

RECOGNIZED ONLY ONE.

The conversation in tho lobby of q
Washington hotel turned to the sub
ject of signs when the following story
was contributed by Representative Ed
ward IT. Watson of New Hampshire
says the Philadelphia Evening Tele
graph:
An esteemed party named Pat es
tablished Il livery stable in a rural
New England town, and wishing ar
appropriate sign, he had one painted
that pictured man riding mule
Just after the sign was put up, Pats
friend, Mike, rambled along.
"Oi see" pleasantly remarked Mike
gazing at the new creation, "thot We;
have put up foine soign.'
"Yes," responded Pat, with some
show Of pride. 'Phat do yez think a\
it,"
"Sure, an Oh loike it," replied
Mike, with an expansive smile, "but
