EVERY STATE IN UNION
Contest Soon to Be Held for 100 Aqri-
cultural Scholarships In Notre
Dame University.

Announcement is made this week
of the establishment of over 100 free
scholarships in the new school of ag-
riculture at Notre Dame University.
Ninetysix Of the scholarships are do
mated by the Oliver Pillow Works and
the Studebaker corporation Of South
Bend, Ind, and the others by certain
bankers, whose names are not yet
made public as the list is still incom-
plete. The Oliver and the Studebaker
companies have given 48 scholarships
each, one for every state in the Union.
The scholarships are for the full
course of four years which leads to a
degree in Agriculture. They cover
tuition, but not board. With them,
however, goes promise of a position
with these great manufacturing firms
after creditable graduation.
These scholarships will be award
ed by competition, and will go to the
two young men in every state writing
the best articles on certain subjects
pertaining to agriculture. A list of
these subjects, from which candidates
may choose one, may be had by appli-
cation to Notre Dame University. The
competition is now open. 1t will close
on August Is. Two subjects already
announced are: Food Production"
and "War Savings"

which he might have made in the
novel position of witness, and was
treated with scant courtesy by the
judge, who, while giving him the back
handed compliment of saying the
more people who came to hear Father
Vaughan in the pulpit next day the
better he would think of the public;
told the priest he must not preach in
the witness box, and that if he had
read the laws of evidence instead of
"Salome" he would not have made so
many mistakes.

The appearance of Rev. Father Ber-

court, as witness in the extraordi-
nary case whereby it has been sought
to suppress an atrocious play, and,
incidentally, all sorts of political and
potriotic issues have been raised at
the same time, was recent sensation
Father Vaughan declared he could not
trust himself to speak as priest of
the things which "Salome," as written
by Oscar Wilde, stood, but as a man
speaking in the public interest, despite
the judges disallowance of all public
motives, he protested against this
constructive treason towards God"

ming Mail, the learned English Domin.
lean, the Rev. Vincent McNabb, re-
Gently emphasized athe necessity of
combining the Catholic condemnation
of Socialism to that form of the move
ment which attacks the inviolability
of private property. He puts his sug-
gestions into these paragraphs:
ut is not true to say that Pope Leo
Kills encyclical condemned Social
ism.' The exact truth is that Pope
Leo XIII, having in view, as he says,
those Socialists who are striving to
do away with private property con-
demned, not indeed Socialism, but, to
quote his words, that tenet of Social
ism, community of goods He thus
asserts the inviolability of private
property
&c. That Pope Leo condemned, not
all forms of Socialism, but that one
form of Socialism which denies pri-
vate property, is proved not only by
examining the text itself Of the en-
cyclical, but by the announcements of
responsible prelates. His Grace Arch
bishop Whiteside of Liverpool, at the
National Catholic Congress of 1913,
said: I have just been reading Philip
Snowden's book on Socialism and
Syndicalism." Mr.. Snowden
advocates a new Socialism, and, If
that is going to prevail, then, instead

be IN position to remain neutral In
fact. l think we might almost grasp
hands with them 1t is evident that
His Grace does not think that this
form of Socialism is condemned by
Pipe Leo NH.
y. Again, His Lordship, Bishop
Cohalen of Cork, who was twenty
eight years professor of dogmatic
theology at Maynooth, recently said:
The Pope condemned a form of So
cialism, but not every form of eco
nomic doctrine that passes under the
name of Socialism. 1t is important,
then, to define that form of Socialist
doctrine which was condemned by the
Pope as opposed to Christian and
natural moral principles, and to sep
arate it from those other economic
theories which, though sometimes
called Socialistic, may be left to the
free consideration of political eco
nomists.'
"a. Lastly, tho Catholic Social
Guild (of England, lately commend
ed by Cardinal Bourne in his Lenten
pastoral, has published a textbook,
The Church and the Worker by Vir-
ginia NJ. Crawford. On page 81 we
read: Since the name of Socialism is
used to cover so many theories, the
student following Pope Leo's exam
pie, should always make evident the
particular theory to which he is OBJ
jecting. The Pope has chiefly in view
that form of Socialism which abol-
ishes private property and looks on
the individual, not the family, as the
unit of State membership

London, June S-Another of those
grave mistakes which increases Irish
| hostility to England has been COM
| mitted by the George government. Sir
lgnatius O'Brien, an eminent Catholic
jurist, has been retired from the Lord
Chancellorship of Ireland, and a noto-
| rious Protestant firebrand, Sir James
Campbell, who organized armed resist
ance to Home Rule in Ulster, has been
appointed in his place. Yet another
affair calculated to irritate the Irish.
has been exposed by the cultured and
patriotic Sim Fein leader, who is a.
devout Catholic-Professor De Valera.
| He has let the Irish know that the in
termed Sim Feiners at Lincoln, Eng
| land, have been left for several weeks
without any opportunity of hearing
Mass on Sunday. Bishop O'Donnell of
Raphoe, in a long and closely reasoned
| argument on the situation in a letter
sent to the editor of the Cape Times"
explains the position and attitude of
| the Irish Bishops. He says their ac-
! ton was not a political move, much
less something purely temporal and
political" They have adopted meas
ures in the past to cope with shortage
of food, wholesale emigration, Ii bad
land system, the evils of coercion and
| the want of a university They con-
slider conscription the life blood of
militarism, which leads to tyranny
He emphasizes the point that if mill
tary service were universally applied
to Ireland the percentage OF her popu-
lation left to her after emigration is
so small that it would almost mean
the doom Of the Irish race at home.
Since the arrest of the Sim Fein
leaders there has been no change in
the Irish situation. 1t is reported,
however, that a voluntary recruiting
system for Ireland is to be established.
Recruiting stations will be cstab-
lished all over the country, and reg-
ments, headed by bands, will be much
in evidence in the streets of every con-
siderable town. The Dublin CORE
spondent of the Daily Express reports
that there will be completed reversion
of the war office attitude that has
prevailed hitherto, and which has
given great olfense in Ireland. 1t is
expected that a plan will be formu
lated for the raising of Irish brigades
and that an Irish army will be formed
as distinct from the English army as
are the armies of the overseas dOmin-
ions. The raising of an all-lrish army
has been asked for by lrshmen who
have been willing to enlist, and il the
plan is carried through it is expected
that the men of Ireland will flock to
the colors in considerable numbers.
Certainly such a plan is confidently
expected to give a tremendous stimu-
lus to recruiting in Ireland.

was, and will remain, mans duty to
promote legislation which will compel
men to respect and protect their
homes and to punish the fathers and
husbands who do not; that the men
ought to legfslate against divorces and
against those who marry divorced
people; that wife-beaters and children
deserters should be under the control
of courts, and through those courts
protection and support ordered from
them for wives and children. That
after these things have been accom-
plished l would have no objection to

IMPORTANT DECISION BY
THE OXFORD UNIVERSITY
Priests Are Licensed as Masters of
Two New Halls of
Institution.

The Convocation of the University
OF Oxford has made a most important
decision to the effect that the two
halls-Parker's Hall, O. S. 3D., and Pla-
ter's Hall, S. j., ONlord-are to be
admitted to the full benefit of the new
statute, which allows a private hall,
under certain conditions, to become a
permanent institution, with it's own
governing body and bearing a promi-
nent name. Therefore, in future Par
ker's Hall will be St Benets Hall, and
Platers Hall, Campion Hall, and the
Rev. Ansem Parker, O. S. b., and the
Rev. Charles Platter, S. j., are to be
licensed as masters of the two new
halls, respectively. This decision is to
Catholics a most remarkable one. be-
cause it signifies that the University
or Oxford has arrived at a definite I'M
derstanding with the two religious or
ders named. Thus the name Of St.
Benedict is restored to Oxford bv the
name OF st. Benet.

cHAPLAlNS RETURN FROM
FRANCE ON WAR MISSION
Chaplain Doherty Brings Back Word
of General Pershing on Religious
Situation of ChapIains'

S'oP'a'h DoI'St ~ 0'uiSS E'aSh Woiu
of General Pershing on Religious
Situation of chapIains'
Headquarters.
Washington, D. c., July S-Chap-
lain Francis B. Doherty, U. S. A., and
Chaplain Lyman Rollins, U. S. A., who
have just returned from France on a
military mission to the United Sttaes,
were the guests of the Paulist Fathers
at st. Paul's College last week, Chap
lain Doherty being member of that
Community.
Chaplain Doherty is attached to
General Headquarters in France, be-
ing associated with Bishop Charles II.
Brent, Episcopalian, and Chaplain
Paul Dwight Moody (son of the we'll
known evangelist of that name) in
the General Headquarters Chaplains'
office. The function of this Office is
the direction and distribution of chap
lains' activities in France to the end
of the attainment of the best and spe-
cial interests of all concerned under
General Pershing. This work carries
with it considerable travel and gives
an intimate knowledge of the situa-
ton from religious and moral point
Of view. From this broad knowledge
Chaplain Doherty says: Everywhere
we find the same situation, hear the
same story; the condition and the
spirit of the men are excellent" When
leaving France on his present mission
the Chaplain asked General Pershing:
MAY we not tell our people in Amer
lea that the moral and religious stu
alton here is eminently high and very
satisfactory" The reply was: Eyes,
and you may say furthermore that it
is going to be kept up to that"
Chaplain Lyman Rollins, who is as
ISOLATED with Chaplain Doherty on his
mission, is chaplain of the 1O1st In
fantry, formerly the 5th and 9th Mas
sachusetts National Guard, the first
National Guard outfit to arrive in
France. He was formerly rector of
st. Michael's Episcopal Church, Mar
blehead, Mass. Chaplain Rollins was
the recipient of the Croix de Guerre.
He says of his regiment: There are
religious ministrations to every man
in the organization, Catholic, Protes-
tant and Jewish. All are regular in
their attendance at services, and their
moral conduct is of the very highest.
The military authorities are doing
everything possible to safeguard the
men, and these respond readily and
eagerly"
Both Chaplain Doherty and Chap
lain Rollins spoke enthusiastically of
the altogether admirable spirit of fra
ternity existing between those who are
ministering to our soldiers. The Cath
Ollie chaplains, they say, are not mere
ly looking to the, good of the Catholic
boys, nor the Protestant to that of the
Protestant boys. Each is working for
the best interest of every man.
Accompanying the chaplains is Pri-
vate Adalbert Bresnehan, who cap
tured the first German prisoner and
who was rewarded with the Croix de
Guerre. They have left Washington
to visit some of the largest cities. On
the completion of their mission they
will return to the front.
