The following report of the Catholic
Branch of War Camp Community
Service, from July, 1918, to January
q, 1919, has been submitted by the
secretary, Mrs. William Logue:
In brief, the history of the st. Paul
Catholic branch of the w. G. C. S. is
as follows: The w. C. G. S. requested
the Guild of Catholic Women to or
ganize some entertainment for the
soldiers and sailors in our city. The
Guild found that it was impossible to
handle the proposition alone, so the
President, Mrs. R. A. Walsh, brought
the request up to the Knights of Co
lumbus. The officers of <. of c. then
appointed a committee to act with the
Guild committee. A meeting of this
joint committee was held on July g.
1918. Mrs. P. Gallagher represented
the Guild and Mr. John Burns the K
of C.

CLEMENCEAU IN PULPIT
SAID TO BE FIRST APPEARANCE
OF THE "OLD TIGER" IN ANY
CHURCH.

The "Gaulois" is responsible for the
statement that at a thanksgiving sery-
ice held in Lille, after it's restoration
to freedom, the French Premier, M.
Clemenceau made an appearance in a
Catholic church. On the previous day
the Premier had personally thanked
the priest of the town for his heroic
conduct, and the latter had sought,
as his "only reward that the Premier
should attend the "Te Deum" OF
thanksgiving. M. Clemenceau appar-
emily not only did this, but at the end
of the TIE Deum he mounted the pull
pit and addressed a few words to the
congregation, who startled themselves
and their cure by breaking out into
cheers.
M. Clemenceau asked the congrega-
| ton to transfer their tribute to that
great citizen (Marshal Foch) who had
never lost faith in the country" which
the London Universe thinks he might
have amplified by adding NOR in his
| God" The French Premier continued
his short discourse by saying: i know
/ it is not customary for a member OF
the congregation to speak in church
and have never done so before, but
" could not restrain my emotion"

stationed in ST. Paul and vicinity dur
ing their leisure time.
"All Catholics in Ramsey County
shall be eligible to membership. All
necessary powers were voted to the
Executive Committee"
The voluntary subscriptions of the
members were secured through the
financial committee.
The Executive Board consisted of
the following persons: President, Mrs.
P. Gallagher; Treasurer, Mr.. A. Roth;
Secretary, Miss Rose Walsh; Miss
Helen Mcbride, Mr.. Hartigan.
With few changes this committee
successfully financed, planned and car
ried out eight. excursions and house
parties at White Bear Lake. Dr. Nc
Keen entertained fifty soldiers at his
residence at Bass Lake. Three hun
dred and fifty-four soldiers were en-
tertained at a total expenditure of
$529.45.
Two magazine subscriptions were
sent to the Soldiers and Sailors
Club
Outdoor entertainments were sus-
pended on September Is, 1918.
On October 10 four boxes of fruit
were sent to the hospital at Fort
Smelling and to the Aviation school.
On November II six boxes of apples
were sent to Fort Smelling Hospital.
This contribution was much appre
ciated by the sick soldiers. The COM
mittee furnished one hundred tickets
to the soldiers for Christmas play
given by the Guild of Catholic Women.
The Executive Board met nineteen
times in regular sessions, with an
average attendance of nine members.
About 266 persons attended both
general and regular meetings. The
visitors to the Board meetings brought
words of encouragement at all times.
Father Byrne, Father Burns, chap
lain at the Fort, Messrs. Rogers and
Brown, Directors of the w. c. c. S.,
and Mrs. Noble of the w. c. c. S. and
Mines. Friend, Moran and McFadden
were among those who enjoyed the
hospitality of the Board. The pleas
ant and harmonious intercourse Of the
Board members will long be remem-
bered.
1t is to be fervently hoped by all
that the money expended, the time and
energy spent have helped to make a
happy memory of Saint Paul for many
soldier boys who sojourned in our
midst.

HEADS OF STATES
APOSTOLIC LEAGUE ADDRESSES
THEM ON BEHALF OF PAPAL
INDEPENDENCE LETTER TO
CHIEF EXECUTIVE.

An important letter from the Apos-
tolic League for the Return of the
Nations to Social Order and to Jesus
Christ has been addressed to the heads
of the various States, including King
George of England, the King of Spain,
King Albert of Belgium, the Queen of
Holland, Mons. Poincare, Mr.. Wilson,
Mons. Ador, the Swiss President, also
| to the principal cabinet ministers, in
Guiding Mon. Clemenceau, Marechal
Foch, Minister Media of Italy, and Mr..
| Lloyd George. The letter runs as fol-
| lows:
Sire or observation-disclosures the con-
| siderations which, in the present con-
| fict, have been most often emphasized,
| is the appeal to the propriety of CIV
| ing to each people an administration
and a government responding to it's
| aspirations. Poland, dead for GEN.
turtles, is about to live again; and
other little nations are to enjoy their
independence. The desire to realize
all things in strict justice in conform
ity with previous conditions, seems to
guide the wishes of the belligerents.
Thus there exists situation alto
gether unique, upon which we ask you
to fix your benevolent attention.
I'm 1870 the secular domain of the
Sovereign Pontiff of the Universal
Church was violently wrested from him
"a domain which was providentially
given to him to assure the full indie
pendence of his apostolic ministry. We
do not wish to enter into considera
lions, which regard only the head OF
the Church, but we beg you to remem
Der that millions of Catholics, spread
through the entire world, claim thai
the independence and liberty of theil
common father should be assured by
all the nations, in which Catholics are
to be found. The Peace Conference
will be a unique occasion for propos
ing this act of justice. If Poland, Bo
hemia, ETC., are to be reconstructed
because the aspirations of these PEG
pie claim the reconstruction of thei
countries, why should they not lister
to the demand of the Catholics of thu
universe, asking from each countr.
and government the necessary condi
lions for the liberty of the Sovereign
Pontiff?
"The Pope, whose sons are spreat
everywhere, should be admitted, il
spite of all pacts, to the debates Oh
great questions of moral order an
! the peace of the world. 1t is to b.
: feared, if the Prince of Peace, Jesu
| Christ, and His Vicar are not to b
found at the base of the grave negc
tiations, which are about to take place
all the human calculations will onl
| | end in bitter deception.
i "Can not the governments take az
count of the thoughts and aspiration
of millions of Catholics in the treatie
they are about to conclude? We az
dress our appeals to princes, king
and governments; to all, who enjo
authority in this world, in fact. Rel
der to Christ and the Church thei
place in society, and you will hay
the true peace, the only durable peac'
! the only peace which can satisf
humanity"
The appeal concludes with respec
: full sentiments.

IN ALSACE-LORRA|NE
CONDITIONS IN RE-CONQUERED
PROVINCES ARE STILL CRIT
ICAL.
(From Our Paris Correspondent

Jdludly ~, 1o1o.
Not unnaturally, the abnormal sit
uation Of the Catholic Church in AL
sace-Lorraine is pre-occupying the
minds of French Catholics in general
and especially those of the Church dig
nitaries and the leaders of the Cath
Ollie party in Parliament. 1t had been
hoped the return to France of the
provinces annexed to Germany in
1871 would have led the Republican
Government to enter into negotiations
with the Vatican for the settlement of
the various important questions arts
ing out of the transfer of sovereign
rights over Alsace-Lorraine. But the
reply which the French Foreign Min
lister made to the question put to him
in the Chamber by the Catholic Dep
uty, Cornudet, concerning the patrio-
tic as we'll as the religious advantages
to be derived from the resumption of
diplomatic relations between the Re
public and the Holy See, leaves no
doubt of the determination of both NJ
Pichon, and his chief, NJ. Clemenceau
icy Indeed, M. Pichon declared that
Gin the opinion of the Government
there can be no question of such a
thing" (the resumption of diplomatic
relations between the French Govern
ment and the Vatican).
During the forty-eight years of Ger
man dominion in Alsace-Lorraine the
Catholic Church of those two provinces
continued to enjoy the advantages oil
the Concordat The Bishops anC
priests received their stipends from
the State, ETC., and the Religious Or
ders are, at the present time, all the
more numerous there because many o.
the religious Congregations of mer
and women migrated to Alsace-Lor
raine when they were expelled from
| France What will become of them
| and how are the Bishops and priest:
to be provided for?

HANDSOME AND COSTLY
CHALICE.

A number of friends of Rev.
Charles E. Baden, chaplain of the
Fenwick Club in Cincinnati, have do
mated old gold and jewels toward
what is. no doubt, the handsomest
and costliest chalice in that city. This
chalice contains nineteen pearls, val

pearls and diamonds, valued at $4,000;
opals, moonstones and amethysts,
nine in all, ornament the chalice's
stem. The whole, including paten and
gold pail, is worth no less than $1,000,
according to opinions of experts.
