+. C. SCHNOBRICH.

To the meat eating races the world
owes its greatest progress, not with
standing the fact that there are fad
dists and cultists from time to time
who preach otherwise, but meat, to
fulfill its real mission, must be clean,
fresh and wholesome, and such meats
can only be secured from dealers
where particular attention is paid to
the handling of the stock. Mr.. F.. c.
Schnobrich at S. Minnesota Street is
a butcher who knows how to handle
meats. His stock of fresh and cured
meats is of the highest quality and is
sold at remarkably low prices, con
sidering the quality of the stock and
the care with which is it handled.

1t is always gratifying to learn OF
the progress made by the Catholic
Church among the colored race OF
our own country. Their conversion
is sought by several orders of men
and women, among the latter being
the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament
The field of these nuns has been
greatly increased during the past
year. These Sisters assumed charge
of Negro Catholic schools at Beau.
mont, Texas, at Montgomery, Ala.
bama, at Biloxi, Mississippi, and at
the parish of Corpus Christi, in New
Orleans. The same success that has
always accompanied these devoted
Sisters will doubtless rest on the new
schools.

NO ALTAR WINE FOR THE
PRIESTS.

A strange request comes from
Bishop Gabriel Grison, M. S. H., Vicar
Apostolic of Stanley Falls, Belgian
Congo. He asks that we do not send
any offerings for Mass intentions TN
til we hear further from him, as it is
very difficult at present to get altar
wine, and consequently impossible to
fulfil Mass obligations. Europe can
send almost no wine out of the coun
try, and the Bishop is going to try
Cape Town, to see if possibly he can
secure a supply there. What q sad
situation is this, for, as the Bishop
says, Mass intentions are the great
support of the mission materially, and
to be deprived of the consolation OF
the Divine Presence would be a still
greater calamity. ..

Messrs. R. M. Pfaender and Geo.

OPINION OF SOME MINISTERS ON
CATHOLIC CHURCH.

''Nebulous-minded people make the
claim that an unsettled state of con-
viction is a symptom of intellectual
breadth. On the contrary, it denotes
a condition of vacuity, which has no
dimensions, neither breadth, length
nor thickness, and as such prevents
one from being a producer.
Were we to apply the principle
we are urging to matters of religion
we should have to acknowledge that
the Roman Catholic Church shows
much sounder sense than do very
many of our Protestants. 1t give its
children something definite to believe
and the belief accomplished in them
by faith fits the child to grow up q
Catholic consciousness.
Men who are unsettled can never
help to settle anything"

The latest issue of The ColOred Har-

THE problem of converting the
Negro to CathOliCity is not simply
equivalent to a course of instruction,
baptism, and the Sacraments. The
ideal colored mission, besides con-
trolling the religious life of it's mem
berS, should be in a position to foster
and protect the social activities of
Negroes, to better their economic
condition, and even to afford or in
spire more suitable houses. Only
those familiar with the South can
grasp this suggestion. That SO much
good work is done in spite of social
and economic obstacles is due 10 the
mercy of God and the inner strength
of Catholicity. 1t is unfortunate that
the ideal is SO stringently conditioned

'It is the old mother Church. Let
me emphasize that our churches are
all the offspring of that Church. A
few ultra Protestants will try to claim
that they trace their genealogy
through some stray erratic move
ments back to the Apostles, without
touching the Church of Rome, but
this is largely imaginary.
For more than a thousand years
Rome preserved the integrity and
transmitted the vitality of the Chris

Protestant secession was dreamed Of;
and when the Protestant movement
came it was made possible as a
branch is made possible on the vine;
