CATHOLIC EDUCATION
ENGLISH BILL HAS SOME UGLY
PHASES.

Now that the Man-Power bill has
been disposed of in England, Catho-
lies will have to watch out that the
Nonconformists and other sectarian
enemies of Catholic schools do not
steal march on them in the new
Education bill, which is going through.
Mr.. Fisher, the Minister of Education,
has already declared that he does not
regard secondary schools as having
any right to a grant, and that Catho-
lie continuation or secondary schools
are not technically continuation
schools at all. There is also an alb
noxious clause which creates the area
the unit, instead of the school, and
gives power to local authorities direct
ly over schools, by which the grant
may suddenly be withdrawn from a
Catholic school, the school closed
and the children drafted off into some
non Catholic school of the same area
This is the pressing danger.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
HERO AT DODGE.
Camp Dodge, Iowa.
April 80, 1918.

April 20, 1919.
To the Editor:
Camp Dodge has produced its first
hero in the person of Carl w. Atkln-
son, Catholic and a Knight of Co
lumbus and at that a, convert to the
Faith. Carl is a Sergeant in Co. M.
35Oth Infantry. He came from Ona-
wa, Iowa, and has been here since
last September. His folks live at
Blencoe, Iowa. Prior to his advent
here he was a teacher in the public
schools in western Iowa and eastern
Nebraska. He is a member of ST.
MichaePs Council, K. of c., Albion,
Neb. His daring action expressive Of
bravery and rare presence of mind is
the talk of the Camp. Thursday Of
last week at the Grenade school I'M
der the direction of Lieutenant
Pouchout of the French Mission, a
grenade ignited in a trench where
twenty men were located. The Lieu
tenant was preparing the grenade
which was loaded with blasting pow
der. The percussion cap was not
fitted tightly because of the absence
of the tin-foil wrapper which usually
accompanies the cap. Through some
unknown manner the grenade became
ignited and dropping from the hand
of the Lieutenant rolled behind him
toward the men in the trench. These
grenades are timed to explode in five
seconds. Sergeant Atkinson, realizing
the danger that the lives of twenty
men were at stake, rushed to the
grenade, knowing that he had but a
few seconds in which to act, grabbed
it and threw it from the trench. 1t
exploded in the air, hurting bits of
steel in all directions. 1t was an act
of true bravery and without doubt
will be officially recognized. Sergeant
Atkinson is naively modest about the
affair. On being complimented he
said, IF credit is due anyone it
should be given to the officers under
whom have been trained l did not
have time to be afraid but only
thought what had to be done if the
men in the trench were to be saved.
To my training, all credit, if any,
| should be given" That is the stuff
that heroes are made of. Without a
doubt when the 88th Division gets in
the front line trenches Sergeant
Atkinson will be again heard of.

A beautiful picture is given of our
Pre-Reformation lavishness where the
service of God was concerned by the
newly opened Chapel Royal at Hamp-
ton Court Palace, London. This edi
flee which, with its royal oratory or
praying closet has been thrown open
for the first to the public this week,
dates back to the times when the
knights Hospitallers of st. John had
a foundation at Hampton before Car
dinal Wolsey reared his magnificent
palace there.
1t is deeply interesting to Catho-
lies, for here Mary Tudor, with Philip
of Spain, came to hear Mass sung by
Cardinal Pole, Archbishop Of Canter-
bury, in the presence Of the Papal
Nuncio on the restoration of the faith
to England, and here alas, elizabeth
received, on the same occasion, COM
munion from the hands of Bishop Gar
| diner Here Henry was married to
Catherine Howard and here he was
praying when she escaped from her
guards on the morning of her execu-
ton and beat in vain on the panels
of the door behind him, imploring
mercy. Here later came the Protes
tants in varying degrees, Laud and the
Anglicans with Charles I, Presbyteri
ans with James /, and lastly the Puri
tans with Cromwell. These creatures
