THE LIE,

1t should be pointed out to children
with continual earnestness that the
essence of lying is in deception, not
in words, says Ruskin. A lie may be
told by silence, by equivocation, by
the accent on syllable, by a glance
of the eye attaching a peculiar signifi-
canoe to sentence And all these
kinds of lies are worse and baser by
many degrees than lie plainly word
ed; so that no form of blinded con-
science is so far sunk as that which
comforts itself for having deceived be-
cause the deception was by gesture
or silence instead of utterance; and
finally, according to Tennyson's deep
and trenchant line, "a lie which is
half truth is ever the worst of lies."

port avenue, Chicago When the United
States entered the war he sought serv-
ice as an army chaplain, but there
were no vacancies at the time and his
application was not acted upon.
Knowing that hundreds Of men in
the Czecho-Slovak legion are Ameri-
cans by birth-ih fact, many are from
his former parishes in Chicago and
Duluth-Father Biskup arranged with
the knights of Columbus to send him
overseas in their service so that he
could be assigned to the Czechs here
Joins as "Buck Private"
On his arrival in France he learned
that the men he wanted to serve were
brigaded with the French armies and
that no arrangements had been made
to assign knights of Columbus chap
lains to units of the French army. De-
termined to get with the men of his
own blood-for Father Biskups par
ents are Czechs-he obtained permits
sion from the knights of Columbus to
enlist with the legion and Immediately
joined up as "buck private"
The Tribune correspondent met the
fighting priest today in Paris, where
he had come to purchase some sup
plies for the men of his regiment.
Clad in the uniform of a French Poilu,
with the distinctive cap and badge
which the French have provided for
the Czechs, it was difficult to recog-
nize the priest of a few months ago.
81 wouldn't trade my job as a pri-
vate in this legion for the finest parish
in America" he said There are hun
dreds of young Czechs in the unit of
which l am member and have met
a number of northern Minnesota and
Chicago men who enlisted to fight
with their brethren against the Prus-
SLAMS"
Father Biskup told of the JOY and
patriotic fervor that swept through
| the ranks of the Czecho-Slovaks when
they learned that their independence
had been officially recognized by the
United tSates government.
Most of the men with whom I am
serving will return to the United
States after the war better citizens
than they have ever been," he said.
| ''They have shown by their spirit in
volunteering to serve overseas that
they fully appreciate the value of lib
erty. l have been with them in battle
and they have shown there, too, that
they can fight as free men should"
About his own work Father Biskup
had little to say 1t was learned, how
| ever, that he has been assigned to
stretcher bearing duty and that he
had been cited for attending to the
wounded under heavy shell fire. His
new role gives him opportunity to
give both material and spiritual COM
fort to the men in the legion.

SUPPORT THE CATHOLIC PAPER.

"They will buy the cheap secular
stuff by the bale," said one of our
teaching Sisters not long ago, land
even the incest Catholic families seem
not to mind having on their library
tables whole heaps of gaudy story
magazines. But when one asks them
to subscribe for Catholic paper they
consider it like a request to give for
charity. Indeed, it is actually easier
to get some of our good people to give

THE WORLD WAR.
Archbishop Hanna Defines Nature Of
the Struggle.

The struggle which today involves
the nations of the earth has many
phases. 1t is the pagan ideal opposing
the ideal that has come into the world
with Christ. 1t is the supernatural
that lifts unto Heaven, struggling
against the natural that seeks only
the things of earth. 1t is the gospel
of national selfishness making strife
against that generosity which could
give to every defined group it's Unborn
right to freedom, it is the last stand
of imperial autOcracy against the
rights of the people to rule themselves,
and to develop their own powers unto
fullness. 1t is a battle against men
who would bring the world under the
domination of their cold, cynical, in
human philosophy. We have espoused
the cause of freedom, the cause of
democracy, and we must transmit our
inheritance of liberty unto the chill
dren of the next generation; and with
liberty, we must hand down the in
heritance of Christian culture which
has come to us across the ages. Nor
de we believe that we can pass on to
posterity our cherished hopes, our
hoasted liberties unless we ourselves
feel in ourselves all that is good and
true in our freedom, all that is great
in our culture. Nor is such feeling
| possible unless in us are developed
those ideals which spring from Christ.
For in the development of a democ-
racy such as we have in mind, religion
has been, and will be, supreme.
Democracy means government by
the people, and government by the
people implies faith in our fellow-men
But faith in our fellow-men and con-
| tidence in their power to realize great
| ideals, are based on mans Unborn dig
nifty.
Going back over the history of the
struggle of men for freedom, of the
| struggle for the right to rule them
selves, it is clear that the great dem
ocrats, since the time of Christ, be.
lieved in mans high place in creation.
But where have the ages learned mans
great estate, his place in the world
| around him? Where, save in that
revelation that teaches us that man
was made in Gods image, and the
power, the beauty, and the love of the
I Most High? Where, save in that same
revelation, have they learned that what
is great and noble in man, must in
| the end triumph, in spite of the Unborn
weakness and tendency to evil?
Where, save in the clear light that
has come from God, through Christ,
have men learned to trust men,
conscious that they will grow by
being placed in position of re-
sponsibility? Where, save in the
light beyond reason, have men
been able to recognize that the
voice within, which told them of their
dignity, and of their right, was but
the far-off echo of the voice of God
Himself?

ALLOTMENT UNTITLED.

AllOT MENT UNfIIlEO.
A Dublin correspondent writes that
Ireland soon may become patch
work quilt" Of CONSUMPTION districts
and nonconscription districts, accord
ing to members of the Irish Recruit
ing Council, whose allotted time for
raising $4,000 volunteers as an alter
native to CONSUMPTION is drawing to
close, with the allotment as yet I'M
filled. The council, which is CON-
posed of five Irishmen, representing
all parties, has divided the country
into ten districts, with a quota for
each, and has arranged with the Gov
eminent that in districts which fill
their quotas CONSUMPTION will not be
applied, even though the total of vol
unteers falls below the required 3d.
900 men. 1t is generally predicted
that some of the districts will fall
far short of their quotas. And there
CONSUMPTION is expected to be inaug-
urated, even at the cost of resistance.
The objection of many young Irishmen
to entering the army and the tradition
al Irish hostility to the War Office is
being met by recruiting agents by
pointing out the special attractions of
the Royal air force. This service is
not under control of the War Office,
and it has the added advantage of
having many nonfighting positions.
Political feeling runs high, however,
and the class of young men who make
the best soldiers, the missile troops"
are not volunteering in large numbers.
Two or three members of the Irish
Parliamentary party have identified
themselves with the recruiting cam
paign, but the party as whole has
held aloof. Side by side with the
operations of the Recruiting Council,
Col. Lynch member of Parliament, is
conducting a crusade of his own, with
the view or organizing brigade which
he hopes to command. Col Lynch
fought on the side of the Beers against
Great Britain but his feelings toward
the present war have led him to lay
aside all racial feeling and come out
on the side of the Allies.

A very small amount of criticism has been heard for the party of citi- xcns who few nights ago escorted a seditious negro to the outskirts of town and gave him flogging. On tl,e other hand endorsement of the program has been unanimous.

who would say what he thinks about you and yours, when the only recourse left open to you would be the taking of the matter into your own hands for the protection of your honor.
 It is plain Ellis was not in accord with the United States government nor our war program, and he at tempted to influence others to his way of looking at the matter. In this manner he placed himself in posi- tion to receive the just treatment that was given him.
 Probably these men have sons or brothers on the firing line at this minute. If they have, there is no wonder their blood was made to boil, and those who have criticised them for their act could better understand the situation if this war were in their own household.
 The fact that Ellis is negro did not quicken the mems temper. Had he been a white man no clcmency would would have been shown.
 We are glad to know that Ellis had no influence upon our negro popula- tion. whose loyalty to the flag is a source of qualification to every pa triotic citizen of the country.
 If we had any criticism to offer our government it would be directed at the lax manner in which it uses disloyal citizens and enemy spies. Instead of interning a lot of these fellows, we believe the firing squad could deliver a better and more de- served punishment.

Associated Press Dispatch.


 Hague, Netherlands, Feb. 16.- Germans who "did what they could to make the war inevitable" are de- nounced by the Frankfurter Zeitung and are warned that ther hour of reckoning is coming, in an article published in that newspaper. The article is reply to criticism by the Pan German writer, Herr Eigenbrodt, who accused the newspaper of enter taining an anti-militarist spirit" Retorting to the critic, the Frank furter Zeitung asked "what has hap pened in this war;" and answered the question by saying:
 "The army which enlisted at the beginning of the war has failed by a long way in numbers. Masses of. men have had to be added to it and train ed within time far shorter than that which even we contemplated.
 "The conception that England de- sired to seek a decision by arms in any circumstances was the basis of the Pan-German policy. They cher ished the idea of the imminence of this world because they longed for it.. Tn the first number of the Pan-Ger- man News, at that time the chief or gan of Pan-Germans, these words were written, the hour we have long, ed for at last has struck; the holy war y
 Ut is impossible to say that the war was desired abroad but it is not difficult to see what one is straining every nerve to bring about. Any body who did not go about with his eyes shut knew that Germany, ex- cept for small group, did not wish for war, but what that small group, just these Pan- n-Germans, could con- tribute towards making it inevitable, that they did.
 If we along with others have any reproach to make to ourselves it is that we did not more carefully watch the doings of such people. They were takers whom one thought nuisance
