does appear, greater blessing as it
will be, when we shall ken a trust
worthy text from the doctrinal view
points, and at the same time one peda-
gogically sound, all of our problems
will not have been solved. The new
Catechism itself will have to be
taught. 1t will not work automatically.
The success of the method depends
for the most part upon the efficiency
Of the teachers. Here it should be
remarked that in our program for
Improvement in teaching religion, the
first consideration should be the sta
tuS of the teacher. Our Catholic
teachers must be trained to teach re-
ligion. They should have a special
method for teaching this subject and
should be well-grounded in the prin-
ciples on which this special method
rests.
All improvements in methods are
conditioned by improvements in teach
er training. Pope BenediCt'S Cate
chism itself will not succeed unless
teachers are trained properly to use
it,"
DR.. McCormick's paper treated of
the principles of method rather than
of the various methods in use for
teaching religion. The catechetical
method was apparently kept in mind
by the speaker as the one most COM
monty used and most Of his examples
and illusions were in reference to it.
For successful use," he said, the
catechetical method must have it's
auXiliaries. In itself it does not fur
nish even the bare necessaries or
essentials in method Without the
supplementary methods it results in
verbal memorizing and the appear
ance rather than the reality of learn
ing.
Happily for us our subject lends
itself to. the highest and noblest form
of expression. 1t sees its final issue
in life itself. Not in knowing, but
in living, does it terminate.
Religion is not an affair of the
intellect alone, but Of the whole man.
1t demands knowing, willing, feeling
living. And expression in this sense
is conduct, life itself"

MANY ENEMIES IN THE FIELD.

False prophets are coming to be
more of a menace to the spread of the
Faith than the false gods and fetishes
Of the ignorant heathens. These the
missionaries can combat with a GER
tain amount of success, for the native
mind is not slow to see the useless
ness of the superstitions that cloud
his mind.
But the false prophets have sub
tier hold. Mohammed, even now, is
winning such host of followers in
Africa that he threatens to rule the
continent with the exception of Ugan-
da, which is largely Christian.
In India, both Catholic priests and
Protestant ministers complain bitterly
of the sway of theosophy, which owns
Madame Blavatsky and Annie Besant
as its prophets and has enshrined
them. in it's temples. Theosophy is
claiming millions of midas people,
who seem to find it an easy step from
Hinduism. The English government,

story runs. But the battle is not al

FROM THE BISHOP OF MANGA
LORE.

The Jesuits are i'll charge of the
Mangalore Diocese, British India, and
Mgr Paul Perrin writes from there:
Il have just returned from an ex-
tensive pastoral tour which included
the missionary stations of Varol and
Arva, where there is great move
ment of conversion among the Parias
or depressed classes of the district

115 Paria converts. Those received

give better organization to the work
by providing larger number of cate

in the more distant villages and by

and social condition of the depressed

forth conspicuously the splendid deyo-
ton of the sons of our Catholic
schools. Thirty-five per cent at least
of the Army and Navy are Catholics.
The blood of our Catholic boys has
already generously believed the fields
of heroic France, and millions more
stand ready and eager to take their
place under the Stars and Stripes, and
if need be, in it's honor and defense
to lay down their lives.
In our schools is found also all that
makes for the strength and the per-
petuity of the republic. The strength
and safety of the republic are not in
wealth and material prosperity, but
in the virtue of it's people; and unless
that virtue is inculcated in the youth
of our country, unless a remedy can
be found for the evils which show the
decay of that virtue, the kne1l of our
country's destiny has sounded. The
state system of education, excellent as
it is in other respects, has banished
Christ and His teachings from it's
door, and secular instruction is power
less to provide a solid foundation and
a sufficient sanction for morality.
There is no morality without religion.
The only remedy therefore is in the
adamantine rock of religion And this
remedy is found in our Catholic
schools. They stand bulwark
against the tide of evils that threaten
to overwhelm us. In them is found
the living fountain whose saving
waters are for the healing of the
nation.
What incentive more powerful could
move the heart of Catholic and patriot
to renewed energy in the cause of
our Catholic schools? Liberty of
education" is our watchWord in the
face of the present tendency of the
national government to encroach upon
the rights of the states; in the face
of the still more alarming tendency
to place all education in the hands
of the government. 1t is against the
dearest and most fundamental prin-
ciples of our republic for the govern
ment to take away from parents the
God-given right to the education of
their children, or to use an educa-
tional system as a means of directing
or controlling the cultural and indus
trial life of the nation. Let this Edu-
cational Association be true to it's
trust; let us. cover the land with our
Catholic schools, both for the welfare
of the Church and the liberties and
glory of our country.

A PROPHETIC GLANCE OVER THE
YEAR 1918.

Let us take firm resolution not
only to remain faithful to our duty
towards the missions, but even to dou-
BILE our efforts in this regard. And
why? Before long, we hope, the world
will enjoy peace again. Then much
will have to be done in the missions:
Stations which were destroyed during
the war will have to be rebuilt. But
there also will be great opportunity
for making conversions. Those be-
longing to other confessions are then
sure to seize the opportunity We
Catholics must do our part; we must
help our missions to ensure their sue
cess. For this purpose large pecuniary
means will be required and money will
be much more scarce after the war
than now. Who can help in this mat
ter? Only great and generous love for
the missions. And who can enl1indle
this apostolic love? A work of pfopa-
ganda like the Sodality, with it's nu-
merous periodicals and leaflets, will
be able to solve this problem. Let
every friend of the missions, there
fore, support the Sodality as best he
can. This is the petition | should like
to put before our dear promoters: let
every promoter, before the end of the
year, gain at. least one new promoter
and one or more associates and SUBJ
scribers. Let them make known the
Sodality and especially its religious
institute by distributing and circulat-
ing appropriate leaflets. Thanks be to
God, the number of auxiliary mission
aries has now remarkably increased;
Switzerland especially has lately sent
us hopeful members. May the num-
Der of auxiliary missionaries keep on
increasing. Let our priest promoters
make it their first and most important
duty to get us new members. A good
many have already done SO; beg
earnestly of others to give their atten-
ton to this kind of work for the Sodal-
ity. They will be doing a work doubly
and trebly good, by directing soul,
who loves tie missions and wishes to
become a religious. to the Sodality
they will send bricl9 for the spiritual
edifice Of the Sodality, and will help
the missions In a most etticacious way.

mission and the stress of the times, l
addressed an appeal to the Catholics
of the Vicariate, and their aims form
ed a sum which, though small, pro-
foundry touched the representatives

Zone of the most influential and
generous of the representatives came
to Ning-po to thank me- When he
depicted for me the black misery of
the five millions of victims that re-
main to be aided until the next har-
vest, with scarcely any more money

no money, I gave him an overcoat
lined with fur, which was worth about
twelve or fifteen gold dollars. 1t was
a souvenir of my Eposcipal jubilee.
This act, so simple that | scarcely
dared attempt it, affected profoundly
M. Scum, and, with him, the pagan
press of the great ports and of the
interior. Articles appear every day in
the newspapers giving to my simple
act praise which it does not merit.

thanked me by telegram, which makes
me all the more confused. a.
Evidently what touched those infu-
entail pagans was not the value of the
gift, but the sentiments which accom-
panied it. They are even more than
touched, for beneath the shadow of
this new flag they are organizing a
campaign of charity. IT, say their
newspapers, a foreign Catholic Bishop
goes so far as to deprive himself of
his clothes for our poor, we, Chinese,
their compatriots, should we not blush
at doing so little for them? Thus the

ON TEACHING RELIGION.

Rev. p Mccormick read a paper on
the Methods of Teaching Religion"
After referring to the article in the
Ecclesiastical Review, for March, by
Rev. Roderick MacEachen on The
Unifcation of Catechetical Instruc-
tion," as bringing a most significant
message to Catholic teachers through
out the World,, DIR. Mccormick said in
part: s@ t@
Pope Benedict XIV is about to re-
sumo the work of the Vatican Council
in behalf of universal catechism
The preliminary work has in fact al
ready begun. The proposed doctrinaI
unification will be a kind of a codi-
fication. 1t is expected that the new
Catechism will do for Christian Doc
trine what the new code has done for
canon law. T2"5@ :s~ e..
ct is clear, of course, that such a
comprehensive work can only be fore
casted at present in very general
way. 1t will require years to bring
the project to completion, and in that
time many important notifications
may be made. Meanwhile Christian
Doctrine must be taught and with the
best means at hand.
THE prospect Of the new and Off
cial Catechism is encouraging, but. it
does not offer any present solution of
our many difficulties. Even when it

rare distinction which is reserved for
those who have distinguished them
selves in social and philanthropic
work for the benefit of the masses.
Father Corti is the second Jesuit mis-
sionary of this mission to receive this
distinction. The first was the late

lea, the founder and organizer of the

on March 20 and continue for FIVE
days was ordered to-day by Provost
Marshal General Crowder. The order
calls troops from every State in the
Union with the exception of Iowa and

FOOD MORE NEEDED
THAN men, SAYS PAPER
Daily Telegraph in Editorial
Comments on Peril of Sea
Transport.

London, March Is (by A. P.)--Thc
leading editorial in the Daily Tcle-
graph to-day is captioned. THE Peril
of Sea Transport" II characterizes
the formation of an Entente Allied
Maritime Transport Council as new
link between the associated nations
and says:
1--WE are approaching the supreme
test of the issue which depends On
merchantmen. 1t may be matter
for serious consideration by the
United States Government whether II
may not give more essential aid at
this moment by holding back tempo
rarily further re-enforcements for
their army with a consequent in
crease in the quantity of ocean
borne supplies"
The paper asserts that If American
soldiers continue to come over at the
present rate tonnage which might be
devoted to food will be utilized for
military instead OF economic pur-
poses, and while both soldiers and
food are required, the latter is tho
more urgent need.
The telegraph declares the enemy's
sea offensive cannot be treated as
matter of less Importance than his
much-advertised movement on the
west front, and adds
Radical changes in organization,
in method and in atmosphere are es-
sential if masters and men are to
save us
II declares in conclusion that So !
