mere experimental station for
bizarre theories.
Our parish schools keep up with
any genuine advance in education but
our eyes are not strained for the fads
and fancies.
Among the new ideas creeping
into the schools of the land lis the
notion that children can learn with
out studying. An educational benevol-
ence which lengthens holidays and
locks books up in the schoolroom has
taken hold of us.
The parish schools are controlled
by men who realize that it is not fair
to the pupil or parent to curtail school
days. ....
The parish school advocates home
study. The royal road to learning lies
through the moving picture show. The
craze for amusement, especially
among the young in our country has
sapped discipline and disorganized the
home. 1t is led by the hoplessness of
getting any home study that the public
public schools have, in many locali
ties, abolish all home study. The limit
of educational effort is four hours a
day. The millennium is at hand;
American children are to learn with
out study. We are the most educated
at people in the world; the delightful
externalism of our educational system
is producing the era of shallow think
ing so prevalent. We are forgetting
how to think. The branch of science
in which we excel we learn after we
have left school. There is a biting
quality in the word Commencement"
1t is the desire of the parish school
to develop home study among the
children. To this end the Church ap-
standpoint, educational and moral,
of the home is the custom of home
; study for the children. From every
standpoint, educational and moral,
home study is desirable and the parish
school insists on home study.
The discipline of a school is a
mighty help in obtaining educational
results. The discipline in the parish
school rests not merely on the desire
for learning but on moral and religi-

welfare of our soldiers and sailors
in the camps in this country and over
seas. One great nationwide drive
would strengthen that cordially and
bring better financial results with
less strain on the people of the coun-
try, who are asked to contribute gen.
erously to the great cause. 1t is q
pity in these days of stress to draw
a manner that is unquestionably un-
fair to the Knights of Columbus, the
Jewish Welfare Board, and the Saliva
ton Army. For with Liberty Loan
drive in October, the Y. M. c. A. drive
in November, followed by campaign
for Red Cross membership in Deem
Der, there is little but the leavings
assigned to the organizations that will
make their appeal in January, If the
arrangements for separate drives are
adhered to. The Knights are already
in nearly 400 war-chests throughout
the country, managed by business
men who have assigned the quotas
to- the different organizations with
resultant harmony and satisfaction.
Boards of Trade throughout the
country are almost unanimously in IA
vor of one joint war-chest for all &C.
tivities, excepting the Red Cross,
which is quite different than the
others, and which should stand alone
in its appeal for it's special and sacred
apostolate. United effort by all other
agencies, strengthened and secured
by united drive for funds, is what is
needed. The separate drive as now
proposed is both un-American and un-
just"

Board of Directors of the X. of c. call

herty to consider the matter of a pro-
test to the President against the pro-
posed dual drive for war funds was

A GRAVE 0FFENSE.
The fragrant Dishonesty of Some So
Called Catholics

1T is remarkable what dislike many
people have to paying their just
Debts" observes brother editor,
possibly after running over a delin-
quent subscribers list. This dislike
| of dischargeing obligations, deliberate.
ly incurred, is responsible for much
scandal giving. 1t is quite possible
that Professionals are kept from seek
ing the truth about the Church be.
cause of the fragrant dishonesty of
some so-called Catholics who contract
unnecessary debts and are entirely
Indifferent as regards payment.
They look upon a bill as a joke or
an insult, if they are very sensitive;
but as remainder of Indebtedness
it has no beneficial effect. The
creditor might as we'll save his stamp
and stationery.
There are Catholics speeding around
in high-powered cars, living in luxur-
ious homes, reaching out after every
fad in society, and yet up to their
ears in debt. Indeed, it has been
whispered of more than one such So
cial climber, that his daughters bills
at the convent school are unpaid,
though his sons fees at secular col
lege are RENTED promptly. ....
The mean-spirted Catholic does not
scruple to take advantage in such
matters. He knows that Mother
Superior will not proclaim his failure
to pay; but the head of the secular
college will have no conjunction in
turning away from his classic halls
the youth, whose father ignores the
quarterly bills.
The grocer, butcher, baker, milk
man, ETC., have tales of woe to tell
about the dishonest heads of families
who order lavishly and pay not at all
if they can escape payment.
The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1918-09-07

We Catholics, with the fixed COM
mandments of God to regulate our
lives, should set ourselves to dis
countenance dishonesty in any form
and to train our young people to hold
an honest name in high esteem, as
we ourselves were trained in our
youth.
A long step forward in life is taken
when the habit of integrity is formed,
beyond the power of temptation to
change it, says the Pittsburg Catholic.

Bedford Springs is known nationally
for its wonderful mineral waters. These
waters are second only to the famous
mineral springs of Continental Europe,
now made invaluable by the war. Pill

But Bedford Springs possesses more
attractions than the magnesia baths and
mineral waters alone. High up in the

the Bedford Springs Hotel rests. Al
Turing bride paths entice the rider 10

invigorating air quickly bring back the
blush of health which the city has re-
moved.
All in all there is no place more pic

capture SO Germans in the midst of
Tuesday nights fierce battle at
Belleau wood. He had just arrived
with his prisoners, breathless with
pride.
"You see, / got caught between

chine gun staring straight at me

"The gunner did not shoot, so l
waited a while and then put up my
hands, hiding my head. Still he
did not shoot, so slowly raised my
head and there stood the GUNNER
with his hands up. He motioned
for me to come up and took me to
the captain, who conveyed me to his
dugout. He gave me something to
drink and some cigarettes and ask
ed if he wasn't surrounded. 1 as
