The Church has consistently op-
posed modern sociological uplifters
who seek to foist upon the home ''re-
forms" and systems" that spell do
nestle infelicity and national ruin.
Through her children she places a
wall of adamant before the onrush of
hostile schemers. Her women may
we'll glory in their steadfast faith and
whole-souled courage born of living
faith, in staying the hand that would
crush the family and do away with
the laws of God.
Our women realize that it was not
wars that brought to destruction the
great Roman empire. Conquest did
not spread the areas of that mighty
nation so far that the Mistress of
Nations was incapable of protecting
herself. Rome was safe, history
tells us, until the womanhood of an
cient Rome had fallen. Woman was
regarded as a chattel. Native mod
esty was absent Ruin, desolation and
destruction wept over the ashes of a
glorious empire when it's morals be-
came corrupted, and it's womanhood
had become degraded.
The Church entered to reclaim
womanhood. She raised her to the
dignity of queen of the home. She
gave into her keeping the standards
of morality, and placed her upon an
equal standing with man as child
of God and an heir to eternal happi-
ness.
Conscious of their dignity today,
womanhood and motherhood are an
honor to the civilized world. They
frown upon those who would rob them
of their inheritance. They see
through the heavily yelled machini-
tons of the present day "uplifter'
visionary. They have torn off the
mask of hypocrisy that shields con-
traceptionalism, and exposed to public
ridicule and everlasting shame those
persons who would enter the home
for the purpose of destroying domes-
tic happiness and marital relations
and robbing the family of that faith
that has given them true 'independ-
enCe, and pledges to them life eternal.
No civilization rises higher than
the morality of it's womanhood. Cath
Ollie womanhood must lead and set
the example. Our past has been glo-
rious, our future must be triumphant.

THE IMMEDIATE DUTY.

The plain duty is the near duty,
says Charles Wagner. A very com.
mon weakness keeps many people
from finding what is near them in,
teresting; they see that only on it's
paltry side. The distance, on the con.
trary, draws and fascinates them. In
this way fabulous amount of good
will is wasted. People burn with ar:
dor for humanity, for the public good
for righting distant wrongs; they
walk through life, their eyes fixed on
marvellous sights along the horizon
treading meanwhile on the foot OF
passers-by, or jostling them without
being aware of their existence
Strange infirmity, that keeps us from
seeing our fellows at our very doors

WEIGHT OF AN INCH OF WATER

Do you know what an Inch of
rain means to farmers? When the
weather bureau reports that an inch
| of rain has fallen, it means that the
amount Of water that descended from
| the sky : in that particular shower
would have. covered the surrounding
| territory to depth of one inch, If
none of it had run Off or soaked into
| the ground.
1t means that on one acre of ground
water to fill more than 600 barrels
| of 45 gallons each has fallen. That
quantity of water weighs more than
| ITO tons. If the rainstorm covered
1000 acres, which would be very
small shower indeed, $4,000 tons of
water would fall from the clouds.
Rainstorms frequently cover whole
counties, and often two or three or
five inches of water fall in one
storm. In that case the weight OF
water that falls to the earth is sim
Iply enormous. A single widespread
land heavy storm might result, it has
Ibeen estimated, in 1O0, 1000, 100000 tons
of rain.

pains. There are certain oils in tur-
nips and parsnips that have aperient
and diuretic properties. There is
solanin in the potato, and spinach
contains iron. Cabbage is highly re-
garded as preventive and corrective
of scurvy and scrofula. The compost
ton of the tomato is chemically SO
subtle that it is not yet fully under
stood, although several active princi-
pies have been isolated and names
have been given to them. Thus the
man who eats freely of vegetables is
taking medicine without paying for a
prescription and without being both
cred by the high cost of drugs. In
the normal individual the instructive
appetite automatically regulates the
size of the dose"

A CHlLD'S VALUE.

A learned professor recently set
the worth of newborn baby at the
exact sum total of siXty-nine dollars
and forty-three cents; bargain
counter value, which, as a contempt
rary remarks, is an insult to every
baby We have been styled a dollar
nation and the sordid calculation of
the child's value would go far to con-
| firm the impression. Literature, edu-
cation and even the personal worth of
men and women are most frequently
rated at a mere money value. Why
then should we not apply the same
standard to babies, says The Echo.
For those who have cast aside re-
vealed truth the value. of child is
a matter of sentiment only, with per-
haps the expectation of future finan-
! cial return. From a national point of
view the worth of a child, aside from
| it's possible civic or military value, is
rated by the surplus of what it may
be able to produce for the country
after deducting the cost of it's rear
ing and schooling. Should it die be-
fore reaching maturity it would be a
mere financial loss. An average value
only can therefore be assigned to a
baby, and hence the various estimates
down to the ridiculous sum here
quoted.
Need we marvel, then, that child
life is rated SO cheap? In the eyes
of pagan society it is the least de-
sirable of all commodities. AS supply
and demand affect the market, so the
pressure of a great war may give it,
for the moment, an enhanced value;
but experience has shown that even
patriotism itself cannot prevent the
crying evils of birth-control and race
suicide. Why should woman before
all others, the un-Christian mother
Indignantly demands to know, be
called upon to bear the burden of the
nation?
BY turning now to the Gospel teach
ing, what, in truth, is a baby worth
What, to be more definite, is the
worth of child laid anew, fresh from
the baptismal font, into it's happy
mothers arms? More, we answer,
than all the wealth contained in the
treasure stores on earth. It's value
is not to be measured in term of SEN
timent or dollars, but by the price of
the Blood of the Lamb, spiritual SON
ship as a child of God, by the glory
Of the imperishable inheritance laid
up for it with Christ in the Kingdom
of the Father. This is baby's worth
in the eyes of the Catholic mother.

THE GARDEN A MEDICINE CHEST

Every man who has a kitchen gar
den has a medicine chest in his back
yard, although he probably has not
seriously looked upon it as such. In
the onion, for example, he has a sui
phur oil which gives the onion its
reputation as a remedy for insomnia
and which some physicians hold is a
valuable anodyne for ''rheumatic'

STAND FOR AMERrCANIsM.

II is time that all American citizens
knew that ours is a government Of
law and order that is sought TO be
overthrown by advocates Of what Is
termed Direct Action, Mass Action,
Syndicalism, Souvietism, Bolshevism
and Radicalism in all its various
forms.
Many scof at idea Of Russian Boil
sheyism being transplanted to our
country, but they overlook the fact
that a national organization that is
based on Direct Action and, with all
its accessories of a political party is
seeking with unlimited propaganda
and dragnet methods 10 unite all
forms Of radical thought under one
movement.
Industrially IL is known as the One
Big Union, and politically as the So
cialist Labor party. lndustrially il
aims at the so-called characterization
Of industries, that is by mass action
taking over the big industries and
owning and operating them by the
workers Politically Il seeks TO unite
every element of discomfort.
Iiie people must be educated to
stand as a solid wall against the ag-
gressiOns of the whole Bolshevistic
movement, for IL IL gets strong enough
n any state or even in any large city
IL is not going 10 stop at violence and
revolutionary and red flag methods 10
accomplish its ends. Destructivisnl is
inscribed on its banners.
The four million men who enlisted
or were drafted into the service Of
the nation in the great European war
were animated by principles of pa
triatism and can be counted to stand
by American institutions and for law
and order. But even their ranks are
invaded by the apostles of discomfort.
The nation faces a crisis that we can
not ignore.
The police force of Boston going on
a strike, were unized and directed
by union leaders, brings up serious
fact for consideration. The President
called the police strike crime. But
the same movement TO unionize the
police, firemcn, public school teach
crs, public officials and finally the
army and navy itself, shows the bold
design Of Bolshevism.
To extend labor organizations TO
the public service to persons not la
borers, to those who under law and
oath are sworn servants of all the
people, means that a rulcrship for
selfish class interests is to be set up
inside Of government itself, a dicta-
torship TO these outside the organiza-
ton for the purpose of exploiting and
robbing in the guise of government
hose who are not in the ranks of the
unions.
II is our duty If we are Americans
standing on the ideals and founda.
tions of free institutions for all the
people, hating special privileges anc
lass rule with the inborn hatred ol
our revolutionary forefathers, to re.
'ist this program of the domination
0y the One Big Union of our govern
ment and institutions, and stand foi
Americanism.

ONE soCTALTsTIC EXPERIMENT

Government control of railroads has
failed from whatever viewpoint II Is
regarded.
II has lowered the standard of serv-
ice to the public.
II has increased rates beyond even
the demands Of the railroad opera
tors before the government took con-
troll.
II has destroyed the morale of the
business organization of transporta-
ton lines.
II has failed to maintain the needed
Improvements in railroad operation,
and is now asking 200 millions for
the item of impaired rolling stock
alone.
II has increased wages with a
lavish hand, but it has failed to sat
isfy the railroad employees and now
faces what promises to be the great
est strike in years.
Finally, and worse than all else, il
has failed in business management.
In addition to all that it has cost the
public in loss of service, it has cost
more than one and quarter billion
dollars in deficits in revenues, not
counting the 272 millions of shortage
during the first five months of the
present year.
Against all this tremendous cost not
one benefit has accrued to the people
Of the country from government oper-
alton.
The plan offered by the railroad
brotherhoods offers no relief from
present conditions. II only plunges
the country deeper into an impossible
condition. The constantly growing
financial burden would still be saddled
upon the public, while conflicting in
terests, bad politics and mismanage-
ment continued to run riot in railroad
control.
