SPAIN AND U.S..
NOTED SPANISH WRITER MAKING
TRUTH ABOUT THIS COUNTRY
KNOWN.

All Spain is being stirred by a
series of articles dealing with the
magnitude of American effort in the
war appearing in "a. B. c." the
strongly pro-German newspaper, &C
cording to a cable received lately by
the Committee on Public Informa ton
from it's representative in Madrid.
The articles are contributed by Joe
Martinez RIM, novelist and literary
critic, who is the first Spanish writer
to visit the American front. Only his
pre-eminent literary position has in
fiuenced the paper to publish the ar
ticles, says the dispatch, and the
writer is being violently attacked by
other prO-German papers.
RIM, who uses the pen name ''Azo-
rim has declared, according to the
dispatch, that he will use the full
strength of his pen to make his coun-
try know the truth about the United
States He added:
In 1898 we suffered a disastrous
disillusionment because of our own
ignorance 1t shall not occur again
if | can prevent it. The future of
Spain is bound up with the future of
America, and this truth must be rec
ognized."

LETTER. TO THE EDITOR
MORALS IN CAMP.

Camp Dodge, Iowa, August II, Is.
To the Editor:
Our verdict in reference to the
morals of Camp life, especially our
statement that the boys are leading
cleaner and better lives, has been
substantiated by Bishop Hayes, Bis
hop-Chaplain of the Army and Navy.
Prior to his contemplated trip over
seas Bishop Hayes has visited a num-
Der of the camps and in recent inter
view stated among other things:
With reference to the care of our
men | came to the firm conclusion
that no army Of men, especially ON
such stupendous scale, has ever
been better provided for in regard to
creature comforts. Our boys are well
housed, we'll fed and we'll clothed.
Recreatioal necessities have not been
overlooked by the government Every
thing of legitimate nature that might
appeal to the boys has been provided.
The knights of Columbus, the Y. M.
G. A., the Jewish Welfare board, as
we'll as other agencies, all combine to
give the soldiers and sailors those
lighter moments that throw the bal
ance safely from the extreme tension
of military life to the normal life,
which is home and which the boys are
not allowed to forget
The exodus Of the SSth still con-
tinuos. The magnitude of Transports
ton may be estimated from the fact
that it requires about sixty trains to
move the division. Handling this
movement without hampering the or
binary traffic of the railroads proves
the excellent system under which our
government is working. All last week
farewells were the order of the day.
Our buildings were the places where
the last hours were spent. Though
tickled to be on their way over there"
the boys seemed loath to part with
Camp Dodge and K. of c. service,
which, they said, would never be for
gotten. They added that they woul1
have been lost in sense were it not
for K. of C. hospitality-the material
and spiritual interest taken in them.
All week crowds have been receiV-
ing the Sacraments. The Catholics in
one Company were led ''over the top
in spiritual assault by two Catho-
lie Lieutenants. The example Of an
other crowd brought an Episcopalian
who asked to receive Holy Com
munion. We regretted much to refuse
him but did not send him away ELI
tirely hungry as we had him kneel
down and gave him a blessing.
Rev. August Preusser, Assistant at
the Pro-Cathedral, st. Cloud, Mimi,
arrived Sunday with orders to report
to the commanding general of the
8Sth for assignment in his command.
1t is probable that FIR. Preusser will
go direct across with the division.
Sunday nine Masses we're celebrated
in the presence of good crowds. The
number of Communions, including
these during the week, reached six
hundred.
Fraternally yours in Christ,
PATRICK N. McDERMOTT,
K of C. Chaplain.

resa, Winona, Minnesota, has just

course was submitted to the assem-
bled teachers Of the diocese.

CATHOLICS In HOLLAND
RECENT ELECTIONS GIVE CATHo-
Lies MAJORITY.

The Catholics have been the prin-
cipal victors at the Dutch General
Elections, having secured the repre-
sentation of thirty seats instead of
twenty-five. The progress of the
Church in Holland is one of the most
encouraging signs of the fruits of
Catholic activity on the Continent. At
peared to be utterly crushed in the
country. After the abolition of Span
ish authority in 1913 the Dutch Cath
olics suffered under the most cruel
persecution. William of Orange pub
Iished edicts suspending Catholic WOr-
ship. The Dutch Calvinists were
fiercely hostile. Two of Williams
officers, Sonoy and Van der MarCk,
put to death all the priests and re-
'ligious on whom they could lay hands.
The soldiers initiated the officers.
Even in the Dutch colonies the Cath
olics were prosecuted. The life of the
Catholics in Holland was much the
same as that of their co-religiOnists in
Great Britain and Ireland during the
penal days.
But wonderful change has taken
place amongst the Dutch. All denom-
nations are free, and the Catholics in
their advance have outstripped the
others. For a considerable number of
years they have been a power in the
State. To a large extent their repre-
sentatives in the legislature have CO.
operated with the Protestants for the
attainment of Christian ideals in So
cial movements.

Crookston: The reception of three
young ladies into the Sisterhood of
st. Joseph took place in the Academy
chapel last week. This touching ccre-
mOny, the first ever witnessed in Crook
ston, will have lasting and beneficial
impression. The Community entered
the chapel followed by the priests and
the Bishop. The Veni Creator sung,
the Bishop addressed the aspirants,
who afterwards responded to the
questions put them. Having vested
them with the blessed habit, the Bis
hop announced their names in relig-
ion: Miss Eva Lanctot CT GENTLY,

Thief River Falls: The Bishop con-
firmed a large class last Sunday, as
sisted by Fathers Noesen and Du-
fault. The parish is one of the most
prosperous in Northern Minnesota.
Father Adolph Dingmann, O. S. B.,
now pastor of GAINESVILLE, erected the
imposing church and modern presby-
terry Father Noesen, the present pas
tor, is doing excellent work in beau
tifying the property and liquidating
the debt, in order to secure a par
ochial school in the near future. The
parish is increasing in number, espe-
cially by an influx of farmers who are
eager to settle down on the fertile
soil.
