GETTING UNDER BORA1I $
SKIN.

Dir. Henry Van Dyke, preach.
ing on March 9th for the League
of Nations, called on his hearers
to follow Roosevelt, Taft and
Wilson, rather than ga Pagan
pessimist such as Borah Of Ida
no."
He quoted Borah's remark III
the Senate, that if "the Savior
Of mankind came back and adj
vocated the League Of Nations,
he would still oppose it.
No doubt; but if 10 Smith, the
Mormon prophet, came back and
advocated it, what would he do !?
1t seems mean to the Pagans
to call Borah q Pagan pcssimist.
The great god Pan was full of
charm, and lots of the Pagans
were nice, and some of them were
admirable. Borah gets his in
SEPARATIONS from a much less
pleasing source. A large proper
ton Of his hackers in Idaho are
Mormons. They are a strong
power in his state, and he can
not spare them. That associa-
ton and influence undoubtedly
has weight with him, and is there
anything more sordid and back
ward looking than Mormondom
Its social and religious system is
surprisingly like that of Prussia.
1t is not militaristic, but it uses
a very dubious religion to fur
ther the ends Of paternalistic
church which diligently com
bines business with false doc
trine. And in propaganda work
Prussia has nothing on it.
Why should Mormons want
League of Nations? What do
they care for anyhow but Nor
mons? What have they ever
wanted except a safe seclusion
N which to practice eunmolested
heir peculiar tenets?
Dig around Borah, and you
find nothing sweet. He repre-
'e'ts partly, the most sordid
society in the United States, and
lie seems to have caught it's spir-
t .=Iife.

The Bishop of Blois celebrated the

from the text. after all that has come
upon us because of our detestable
works and our great crime, the Lord
hath delivered us from the conse-

brought us salvation"
The Bishop outlined the detestable
work as Egotism, Anarchy and So
cialism, and the great crime as Re-
ligious War and the Divorce of State
from Church in France He then de-
clared that God would again save them
by the intercession of the Virgin of

Act of Conservation of the whole
country was read in firm clear voice
by the young king, standing high
above the wonderfully picturesque
groups whilst at the same hour it
was read in every church in Spain
Then the procession wended it's way
from the open air altar to the foot of
the statue, which rises, with back
ground of snow-capped mountains, the
Guadarama, to look down over the
plain of La Marche to the capital of
Spain.
Only one dissentient voice has been
raised on this occasion. The Minister
who was not present has
protested against the action of the
King as contrary to his sentiments
and those of the Socialist atheists,
who are naturally in a large minority
in Spain.

VILLA FOR SISTERS
BISHOP GLASS OF SALT LAKE
HAS BOUGHT A SUMNER HOME
FOR THE SISTERS OF THE Do
CESE.

Pinecrest Inn, one OF the most
beautiful mountain resort hotels in
the West, situated about IA miles from
Salt Lake, was acquired the first week
in July by the Right Rev. Joseph S.
Glass, Bishop of Salt Lake, Utah, for
use as a summer home for the nuns of
the diocese. The hostelry was pur-
chased from the A. Fred Wey Hotel
Company and will hereafter be known
as Pinecrest Villa.
The furniture was acquired with the
property and after the making of
few minor repairs and alterations it
will be ready for occupancy
The villa itself is a gem of Swiss
architecture and it's accommodations
are palatial. The hotel has sixty
sleeping rooms, one-half of which are
provided with private baths. The
great porch overlooking the mountains
is Is by 100 feet in area and there is
also a commodious sun parlor as well
as an open air dining room.
Entering the villa one finds himself
in an enormous paneled lobby into
which descends the impressive stair
way that leads to the sleeping rooms.
A great stone fireplace is a feature Of
the lobby furnishings. There is also
a beautiful fireplace in the large in
side dining room.
The inn contained two large dance
floors which can easily be made to
serve as chapels or assembly halls.
The entire building is commodious in
every way and fully ample for the
purpose to which it is to be put. 1t
was built seven years ago at cost of
100000 and for the past five years has
been operated by Mr.. Wey.
No railroad now traverses the can
yon and the nuns will thus be assured
privacy which could be found in
few other desirable spots close to the
city. The place will be easy of access
by auto, however, since a new boule-
ward has been projected up the can
yon, upon which construction work is
scheduled to commence at once.

A SLAV BISHOP
BISHOP CALLS CARDlN AL
BOURNE JUGo-SLAV AID
WILSON AND FIUME.

The Bishop of Spalato, Monsignor
Carlo, is said to be very we'll pleased
with his stay in Paris and Rome and
with the results of his representations
to the Peace Conference. Of his in
terviews with the Holy Father and
Cardinal Gasparri, he says that the
Holy See is ready to enter into diplo-
matte relations with the new Jugo-
Slav state when other international
questions are regulated. He believes
the Jugo-Slav cause has been greatly
helped by Cardinal Bourne's audi
ence at the Vatican.
In Paris the Bishop, acting in con-
cert with the Jugo-Slav delegation, in
terviewed several members of the
Peace Conference and spoke with Bal
four, Pichon and House. He was re-
ceived by President Wilson and gave
his impression of the great American
as an idealist, not wanting in energy.
President Wilson said to him: II am
convinced, and l shall adopt with all
energy this just cause"
| Possibly here was the seed of the
present Fiume trouble. The Bishop
believes 1t is through the firm atti-
tude of the President of the United
States of America that the cause of
his people is advanced
In Italy the Bishop did not get on
so well, and he considers both public
land journals are against him,

SOLDIERS GIVE MEMORIAL
3O9TH INF PANTRY PRES EMIT
STAINED GLASS WINDOW TO
LITTLE FRENCH CHURCH..

The little town of Orges in France
would be difficult to find on the map
of that country. There are about 700
inhabitants, and they are good, sim
pie people 1t is very near the hearts
of the men of the 30Sth Infantry, Sew
entryseventh Division, of our army.
They were billeted there and crowded
every house and barn. Every Sunday
they crowded the little church, when
they went to hear Mass, and they de-
lighted the heart of the good Cure,
who will never cease to speak of the
splendid example given to his parish
toner's by their practical and manly
Christian lives.
An event took place on Sunday, May
IS, 1919, which will go down in his
tory. Under the direction of Father
Halligan, their beloved chaplain, the
men decided to erect a memorial in
Orges They noticed that the Church
needed some stained glass windows,
and they determined to present one,
and chose as the subject of their win
dow, St. Rose of Lima, Americas first
flower on the altar of God. The call
to return home came before the win
dow arrived, but they had the salts
faction of knowing that it would find
it's place in the little church they had
| learned to love so we'll.
It was to bless this window that
Monsignor James N. Connolly, Vicar
General of the Catholic Bishop Chap
lain of the United States Army and
Navy, came to Orges with his assist
ant, Chaplain Ernest Marsh, on the
evening of May II.
On the following day, Sunday, May
lis, the joyous bells in the belfry rang
out, announcing the Solemn Mass
which began at II o'clock. 1t was
celebrated by Monsignor Connolly, and
| the good Cure preached the sermon
| He did not need to tell his people
what the 3OSth had done. They al
ready knew it, but he repeated his
heartfelt thanks to the men.
In the afternoon the Vesper service
ltook place, and the Vicar General O.
the Diocese of Langres preached thu
lsermon. This was followed by shor
Idiscourses by Monsignor Connolly ant
Father Marsh, after which the cere
monies were concluded with Benedic
Ition of the Blessed Sacrament. TIL
mayor of the town was present as tn
representative of the civil power Q
the little commune, and after the serv
ices he accompanied the priests to tn
presbytery and read the account
the events of the day which he ha
written in the big book of the Marie
!. and then asked the two Wears Ger
, | eral and Father Marsh and the Cur
to afix their signatures to it.

permanent sleeping accommodations
for more than four hundred, and in an
emergency the auditorium is used to
provide additional sleeping quarters
for one hundred and twenty more of

otherwise dull hours are passed there
pleasantly by the uniformed guests.
Ample facilities for writing that letter

|cants is ably handled by a skilled
force of clerks and each days scores
are placed in good positions.

THE CHURCH IN JAPAN
ACCOUNT GIVEN
BY RETURNED MISSIONARY.

Rev. Ferdinand Spenner, S. NJ, who
laboring in the mission fields of Japan,
is visiting ST. Mary's College, Dayton,
Ohio. During his stay in the island
kingdom he was located at st. Jo-
seph's College, Yokohama, where he
was actively engaged in teaching and
in works of the sacred ministry
among the English-speaking people of
that city. Because of i'll health Fa-
Their Spenner is returning to his ma
tive France, where he expects to en-
joy a much needed rest. After some
months, if his health permits, he will
return to his beloved missions in the
Land of the Rising Sun.
Father Spencer gave an interesting
account of the work of his co-laborers,
the Brothers of Mary, in Japan. The
Brothers conduct five large colleges
in Japan, and as educators they enjoy
the greatest confidence of the people
and the highest respect of the govern
ment The colleges of Tokyo and
Osaka have, respectively, a thousand
and nine hundred young men. Of
these large numbers, however, the
great majority are pagans. Neither
school has more than seventy-fve
Catholic converts on it's register of
students. Nevertheless, on Sundays
many of the pagan children attend
the catechism instructions given by
the Brothers and the priests. The
work of conversion is rather slow, and
every year. There are many causes
for this want of success following the
work of the missionary; but one of
the most pernicious is the baneful
home influence eXerted on the chill
dren by pagan parents.
AS to the precarious condition of
the schools of the religious orders in
Japan, Father Spencer says there are
no causes for serious alarm from the
Japanese government. The govern
ment's object in enforcing the religion
of Shintoism on the schools is to Gre
schools and to preserve some sem
| blance of exterior morality among the
children of the secondary schools. In
order that all children may take part
| in the ceremonies of this form of wor
| ship without detriment to their faith
| the services are divided into two
parts, religious and governmental
rites The Japanese think the Chris
tians may freely take part in the gov
ernmental part of the services with
out acknowledging their profession ir
the Shinto faith; but this is impossi
BILE, as the governmental form retains
some pagan rites and ceremonies
| The teachers of the religious orders
are highly respected by the govern
! ment, and it is unlikely that they viii
suffer any difficulties on account O.
their faith Rev. Alphonse Heinrich
S. NJ, provincial of the Brothers o
Mary in Japan, is frequently invited
to attend the sessions of the Imperia
Ministry of Education in Tokyo
Father Heinrich is regarded with dis
tinct honor by the members of thu
ministry, and his advice is sought OF
educational subjects.
