CHRISTMAS IN WEIRLAND
written for The Catholic Bulletin by
Or. James Henderson,

The Christmas bells were ringing
With sonorous sound and clear,
Down the shadowy lanes of silence
In the mystical land of Weir;
And out from the brazen throttles
With a cadence known to all
Who dwelt in that gyved old city,
To soften again their thrall.
The ghostly forms of the wee ones
Who left in so long ago,
Came with their well filled stock.
ings,-
The Lord had been kind we know;
They were just the same sweet
darlings,
And the same glad smile they wore
Ere they paled in the earthly shadows
When we cuddled them long ago.
The rhythmic rune of the joy-bells
And the tidings they bore afar,
Yelling to nethermost heaven,
Wakend the depth of each star,
Till ISRAELI CARRIED in his radiance,
With lutte caught the sybilant song
Whilst it's swell walked Astarte's
slumbers,
In the rose-tinted realms Of Dawn
And all visions were merged and
melted,
All cadences sweet as dreams,
All days of the joy-bells ringing
Where space but intervenes
Trembled like glinting star-dust,
Palpitant, fumed in song,
With IsrafePs lutte in the chorus
And great suns sweeping to Dawn

Americas Present Duty
cATHoLICITY AND THE NEW IN
TERNATIONALISM DISCUSSED
BY CARDINAL GIBBONS.

To make the world safe for democ-
racy, to establish peace. in the world
upon the tested foundations of po-
litical liberty, to champion the rights
of manhood-such, in. the words of
President Wilson, is the task to which
the American people have dedicated
their lives, their fortunes and their
sacred honor, says Cardinal Gibbons.
To accomplish this, the American
republic has had to sacrifice prin-
ciple upon which it's policies have al
most always been based. that of
Splendid Isolation"
The president has told us that the
chief obstacle at the beginning of the
war was to overcome this traditional
aloofness in world affairs. ''The world
is no longer" he has said, divided
into little circles of interest. The world
no longer consists of neighborhoods.
The world is linked in common life
and interest, such as humanity never
saw before. War disturbS
the life of the whole world, and it is
our duty to lend the full force of this
nation. moral and physical, to a league
of nations which shall see to it that
nobody disturbs the peace of the world
without submitting his case first to
the opinion of mankind"
In the world today the strongest re-
spouse to this new internationalism
must come from the Church of the
Ages. The Catholic Church cannot re-
main an isolated factor in the nation.
The Catholic Church possesses spirit
ual and moral resources which are at
the command Of the nation in every
cies in carrying the work to success.
ton 10 forget local boundaries and
provincialism is a message likewise
to the Catholic Church. Parochial
diocesan and provincial limits must he
forgotten in the face of the greater
tasks which burden our collective re-
ligious resources.
Today as never before the Catholic
Church in the United States has an
opportunity for doing nationwide
work. No one honestly doubts Cath
Ollie loyalty to the principles of the
American nation. And from the HER
archy to the clergy, from the clergy to
the people, the government expects an
impulse towards a perfect and eff,
cient cooperation with all it's agen,
cies in carrying the work to success.

Will Not Be Forgotten
GRAVES OF AMERICAN SOLDIERS
IN FRANCE HAVE BEEN ADOPT
ED BY GRATEFUL FRENCH.

The mothers of America have little
need of preparation to provide a befit-
ting welcome for their boys, as they
return from the battlefield. Their re-
ception will be all that the victorious
warriors can hope for. That much is
sure. For those mothers who are to
be deprived of this long-looked-for
privilege, comes the assurance that
their boys are not to be forgotten in
the far-off land where they died. The
bodies may be returned to America,
but in the meantime Frances graft
tude is asserting itself in the honoring
of their memory.
Almost every American grave in one
of the large cemeteries outside Paris
has been adopted" by some French
family, we are informed, and these
foster-parents of our heroes not only
care for the graves as if their own
dead lay buried there, but they are
striving to keep in touch with the rel
atives on this side of the Atlantic, and
maintain the bond of unity and friend
ship which the wars casualties have
established. Many families, it is said,
have adopted from three to five of the
little mounds, and one prominent
French professional man of Paris has
assumed the care of fifteen and insists
upon tending them with his own
hands. Such delicate attention will be
appreciated. 1t will do much to re.
lieve the sorrow of those who have
paid the the heaviest toll in the wag
ing of war; by giving to their country s
cause what they held most priceless
on earth--their own flesh and blood.

The following communication has
been sent us from the Catholic Fed
Grafton:
Mr.. S. Kruse, President and Manager
of Hotel Radisson,
Minneapolis. MINI.
Dear Sir:
The "Hotel World published in
Chicago brings an article in it's De-
cember issue by S. Kruse, presi-
dent and manager of Hotel Radisson
Co., owners and operators of Hotel
Radisson, Minneapolis, Mimi, in which
appears the following: at just oc-
ours to me that when magazine edi-
tor calls on his subscribers, it is SIM
liar to the Pope calling upon his
slaves; they must obey, or suffer the
penalty. It is paradoxicaI how an or
eanization Of apparently rational hu-
man beings will elect and establish a
Pope and then kneeI before him and
permit him to WELD arbitrary power,
often unjust"
Do you realize, dear sir, that by this
statement you are insulting, not only
the Catholic patrons of your hotel,
but also the eighteen million Catho-
| lies of the United States and the three
hundred million Catholics of the
| world? 1t is amazing that ''any ra-
tional human being (using your own
words) could publicly express such
gross Misrepresentation about the
Pope. These statements are either
made through ignorance of the mis-
sion of the Catholic Church or through
deliberate malice, with intent to in
suit Catholics and their spiritual lead
| er.
| We trust that it was ignorance
which prompted the above statement
Such being the case, you are advised
that the Pope has no slaves, nor does
he "wield arbitrary power, often I'M
| just"
The undersigned has been a Roman
Catholic for over half century, and
has come in contact with millions OF
Catholics here and abroad. and he
challenges anyone to show him where
Catholics have been treated as slaves
or where their rights have been as
sailed by the Pope.
Every student of present day events
could not have failed to notice the
civil allegiance of Catholics in all the
countries at war. One hundred ant

When all the world, excepting a few
dupes and bigots, admire the Pope S
justice and fairmindedness, it is to be
deplared that the manager of the Ho-
tel Radisson of Minneapolis should
make such an uncalled for statement
as published in the December Z is

If the statement was not made ma
liciously, an apology to your Catholic

reach the heart through the intellect.

ferences preached by the author in
the Cathedral at Besancon. The pres

has been spread throughout the
world. The various marks of the true
Church form the basis for some of the
most prolonged conferences in the
whole book. The author takes us

Church, her sufferings, trials and
many triumphs. Altogether, this work

Pontifical Property Ruined

The greatest indignation has been
aroused in Rome by the news that the
Germans before leaving Belgium ut
terly destroyed the magnificent pom
tifical printing establishments. The
machinery and everything else OF
value was carried off. Whatever re.
manned was burned.
The Holy Father had personally in.
tervened to save these establishments
as being pontif1cal institutions. He
had been assured that no harm would
be done.

Mary, tell thy little Son
That the world war is done,
That the cannon mouth is cold
And away the smoke is rolled,
That the torn meadows lie
Peaceful meath the wintry sky.
And that millions weary men
Turn their faces home again,
While the white snow covers all
The battle fury as pail.
Mary, pray thy little Son,
Now that the red fight is done,
That He lift His holy Hands
Over all the stricken lands
That His kindly love may fall
Ger the aching hearts of all.
