Her Badge
Of Divinity

While we believe that the Catholic
Church will ultimately benefit by the
war, there is no doubt that she will be
harassed by many petty prosecutions.
The magnificent part taken by Catho.
lies in winning the war will arouse
the hatred of the enemies who do not
stop at any means in their attempt
to destroy her. Catholics should not
be disheartened, but, rather, encour-
aged by the prosecutions that the
Church suffers.
Persecution is the badge of her d.
vinity The Founder of the Church
warned His disciples that the world
would always hate them. IF the
world hate you, know you that it hath
hateth Me before you. If you had
been of the world, the world would
love it's own; but because you are not
of the world, therefore the world
hateth you Remember My word that
said to you, the servant is not great
er than his Master. If they have per-
secuted Me, they will also prosecute
you. Yea, the hour cometh that Who
soever killeth you, will think that he
doth service to God"
The Catholic Church will never be
a popular institution in the ordinary
meaning of that word. If the Church
would pander to the passions of men,
sanction divorce, condone impurity,
she might be popular. Had our Di-
vine Savior not confronted the
Scribes and Pharisees with their
hypocricy He would have been
popular man in Jerusalem. The Bap.
fist was not popular when he stood
before Herod and hurled at him the
injunction: ut is not lawful for YOU
to have your brothers wife," The
millions who shed their blood for the
faith of Christ were not popular.
It has been so with the Church in
every age of her history. She has not
been popular because she has boldly
proclaimed the truth. She has had
the same laws for rich and poor, for
those of high and low degree. Her
doctrine and her discipline run count
er to human passion. The world will
always hate the Church just as the
world hated her Divine Founder. The
Church is not popular institution
and the Church never will be popular
with the world. Her unpopularity is
the glorious badge of her divinity.

Serves Notice on Democratic Party.
-Thunderous applause greeted the
declaration of Father w. j. McNamee,
pastor of st. Patricks Church, at the
Irish Fellowship Club meeting, Chi
cago, that he had least his last vote
for the Democratic party in the event
of President Wilson and his associ-
ates on the peace commission failing
to insist upon self-determination for
Ireland"
The applause was renewed when
the speaker pointed out that the main
proportion of the Presidents political
party in the northern states, at least,
is composed of citizens of Irish an
cestry, who have always stood for lib
erty and democracy, and that they
have right to expect that the Demo-
cratic chieftains will insist upon the
right of Ireland to equal treatment
with the other small nationalities Of
Europe.

Belgium Attempts to Smile THROUGH
its Tears and Disaster, but the Gore
Sodden Soil Shows Marks of the
Invader,

DR.. r. K. Dillin in the London Times
describes Belgium as he found it after
the war:
with the invasion of Belgium
when the war began, it's ami
hilation as State was at once a
condition and consequence of Ger
many's military success. It's recon-
stitution will be the first step toward
the resettlement of the world and at
the same time a fair indication of
the basis on which that settlement is
conceived by the intrepid architects
OF the new political fabric.
For these reasons 1 felt drawn to
that country as soon after the arm
istice as one could reach it. I had
quilted it's shores in August, 1914,
when the war cloud from the east
was bursting over Liege and Lou
vain, and the Kaiser was testing the
force of his thunderbolts of fright
fulness. And then, at the end of
tlfty-tWo months, I crossed from Folke-
stone to Boulogne, and motoring via
Dunkirk through West Flanders
toward Louvain-a land blasted by
intermittent earthquakes, floods of
destructive metal and death-spread-
ing fogs of poisonous gas-I was en-
abled to acquire some notion of the
intensity of the change that had
come. over that once happy land.
AS I departed from the gore
sodden soil on the Belgian front, where
youth, old age, innocence and vice
f1ourished promiscously, l was struck
with the contrast it offered to the
country behind the German lines. The
transition was supplied by trenches of

THE aftermath OF THE WAR

on the panorama of the outer world.

compartments of wide wasting of

was astonished to find nearly all
of them looking so hale, ruddy and
happy, amusing themselves so heart
lily. They at any rate, had managed
to thrive under adverse condi-
lions. Little girls, enveloped in be-
coming dark blue cloaks, with their
blonde hair falling down over their
pretty hoods, glided forward as
deftly in their wooden shoes-none
had any other footwear-as though
their feet were encased in supple
leather dancing shoes. Boys were
tramping, chatting noisily with ex-
uberant cheer, eagerly in sport, now
running, now wrestling, cheering,
whistling and uttering all manner of
articulate and inarticulate sounds.
Most 'of them carried their lunch in
their hands. 1t consisted of white
turnips, tender little carrots, which
they would MUNICH every now and
again at intervals in their play.
This tranquilizing spectacle started
within me healing thoughts, solac-
ing hopes, which drew strength
from scenes of rural toll softened
by the tender charities of family
life, which unfolded themselves more
and more frequently as I moved
farther away from the traces of wars

AS we drew near Bruges the road
was literally crowded with ex.refu-
gees returning to their homes or in
quest of missing members of their
families. AS trains are not yet nor
mally running and there are no mo-
tors, cabs nor kindred modes of To-
comotion, each traveller trudges
along on foot carrying his or her bag
gage, hating on the way. Long pro-
cessions of ramshackle bicycles roll
ed onward, many breaking down
here and there. At Bruges my mo-
tor was stopped by a lady, her hus.
band and son, who pesought us to
take them into our car and let them
crush themselves into a space al
ready overcrowded. BY degrees as
we descended for lunch throng of
eager candidates for a "lift" sur

O'Riordan, were congratulated by Car

Though only twenty North Americans

The United Press declares that Will

the president will not abandon a

"The sea code must be binding to

The seas never will be free until all
sailing upon them have voice in

1t is barely possible that the above paper

and does not split hairs on what it wants
to say. How much effect such articles have
on the body polite of this country is more
than we can conjecture, but certain it is
they can do no harm from our view point.
From time to time we ourselves indulge in
similar philipics and if they have ever done
any good it's more than we know, but bread
east upon the waters will return after many
days, and so it is the duty Of every man,
who loves his felowman, to continue to con-
