CARDINAL BOURNE ON IMPOR
TANT PHASE OF EDUCATION.

With the cause of public education
in the foreground of discussion in
many quarters, and with the future of
our Catholic schools involved in the
present controversy, an address re-
Gently delivered by Cardinal Bourne,
Archbishop of Westminster, at Liver
pool, gains special significance. The
Cardinal devoted part of his address
to eAerNneed of religious teaching in
early. Eo y - the teaching Of
religion IN I trr SSli1oo. While his re-
marks apply specifically to England
they contain much that is valuable to
American Catholics also. The Tablet
Uondon) gives the following sum-
mary of this part of the Cardinals S
address:
few weeks ago he was opening a
recreation hut at a camp in the north
of England. distinguished general
asked him, What has' been the effect
of the war on the religious disposition
of the nation?" He (the CardinaD
replied that, as far as he could under
stand from the reports made to him
by chaplains, there had been a real
awakening of religious feeling, and
many men had returned to the practice
of religion who had given it up.
My experience is absolutely the
other way. | believe there is nothing
of the Sort said the general.
When he thought the matter out he
came to the conclusion that the only
adequate explanation of that contra
dictory information was this: Every
man-there might be few exceptions
who as soldier was in the presence
of death found awakening within him
a sense of God, dependence on God,
which perhaps he had never felt at
any other time. If that soldier had
received any instruction in his youth
enabling him to translate that innate
and instructive turning towards God
to some definite action he did get
nearer TO God and religion than ever
before. If, ON the other hand, he had
been taught little or nothing about Goo
or religion, he stretched forth his
hands instinctively and looked up tC
God for q moment, and then, not know
ing whittier to turn or in what words
or action to express the outpourings OF
his heart, he sank back into himself
hopeless and contradicted-back into
the old indifference out of which fol
the moment he had been aroused. He
felt that there and there alone was tt
be found an explanation for the differ
ence of experience to which he hat
referred.
Other examples of this lack o
definite principles were to be seen IL
the Limitation of the birth-rate, oil
yorce and the attack (as in Londol
recently on the inviolability OF hu
man life. On all those points ther'
was a definite Christian tradition en-
forcing the voice of conscience ant

dition went contrary to what had beel
publicly advocated by important an
no doubt conscientious persons accoro

25, 900 CHEER THE PRESIDENT OF
THE IRISH REPUBLIC IN CHI
CAGO-DE VALERA AWED BY
RECEPTION-SPO IN GAELIC
AND ENGLISH-THE Widest
ENTHUSIASM PREVAILED.

The reception which the Irish peo
pie OF Chicago rendered Eammon de
Valera, President of the Irish Repub
lie, at the Cubs Baseball park last
Sunday afternoon was one of the
greatest demonstrations in the his
tory of Hibernianism in that city
twenty-five thousand people of Irish
birth or descent bade him welcome
with a rousing cheer that lasted
thirty-one minutes. During the dem
onstration people surged around the
grandstand on which De Valera stood
and above which waved the green
white and orange banner of the Irish
Republic.
Judge Scanlan presided as Chairman
of the immense gathering and ad-
dresses were delivered by Mayor
Thompson and the envoys of the Irish
race in America who had recently re.
turned from Europe-former Governor
Dunno and Frank P. Walsh.
When De Valera arose to address
the audience the widest enthusiasm
prevailed. Many who had been born
in Ireland and others who had never
seen it's green hills and bright sky
wept as the Irish leader pleaded fol-
a free Erin De Valera yielded to
the inspiration of the moment and
digressed from his prepared speech
He spoke first in Gaelic which de-
lighted those who had learned the
tongue in that spot so far away
and then turned to English in order
that all might hear and understand
He said in part:

NEED OF RELIGIOUS TRAINING

from the schools and having to face
these problems which affected the
family life of the country and finding
remedy? They had in this country
two schools of educational thought.
One of these asserted that nothing
dogmatic must be taught in, the
schools. He wished to speak with
every respect of that school, for it
embraced a very large number of per-
sons whose views were worthy of
every consideration. Their policy had
been that anything definite in the way
of religious teaching must be supplied
either by the home or by the Sunday
School or by some religious organ
ization external to the school itself.
The other school of educational
thought had always maintained and
had made many sacrifices to maintain
that the religious and moral influence
must be carried into the school, where
it had to be deepened if it were to
have a lasting effect. He was bound
to point out that since 1870 most of the
privileges and favors had been given
to the first school of thought. What
had to be done in the future? He was
not speaking from purely religious
standpoint-his own convictions in
| this matter were well known-but he
would speak from the point of view
| that it was necessary to impress on
| the heart and mind of the growing
generation definite principles of moral
conduct.
He frankly admitted that it was i'm
possible to get unity of feeling in this
matter. The disruption of the six
teenth century would not have become
so deep, so terrific, and, apparently
so irremediable were it not for the
terrible German influence that inter.
vened at that period. If We as Eng
lishmen had been left alone, we might
| have arranged in our national spirit
of mutual understanding some way OF
healing the disruption of that century
He appealed most earnestly, not in the
interests of any particular religion
but in the interests of the nation and
empire for fair play and equal priv
ileges for both schools of educational
| thought. With our national charac
teristic of legitimate compromise, and
with that fair give and take that ulti
mately prevailed amongst us, and Of
which Liverpool had given conspicu
Gus example, this ought not to be diff
ficult The welfare of our nation anG
the future of the whole empire de
pended very largely, indeed, upon the
true understanding of this most i'm
portant and far-reaching and really
weighty question.
This summary of the Cardinals re
marks emphasizes two points; tn,
need of early religious training ant
the desirability of fair play and al
agreeable understanding in the entire
school question. The remarks con
tain wholesome suggestions for III
also, not the least of which is tha
of fair play for the parochial schools
of America. Catholics who maintain
their own schools and thus bear
double burden, should not be expecte'
to make still greater sacrifices, sucl
: as the Smith and Towner bills woul
demand of them. And with Catholics
, all citizens should be spared the bun
dens which these bills would impos
on them. These bills do not denote
spirit of fair play.

DUBUQUE COLLEGE
WILL OPEN A COLLEGE DEPART
MENT FOR SISTERS IN
SEPTEMBER.

Announcement is made that with the
beginning of the scholastic year Of
1919-1920 Dubuque College, Dubuque,
Iowa, will widen the sphere of it's edu-
cational activities. A college depart
ment for the members of religious
communities of women has been Or
ganized, and will be in full swing the
coming year. For years Dubuque Col
lege has conducted summer sessions
in college and in normal courses with
an ever-increasing enrolment, and the
new department is but the natural out
growth of the work begun in the sum-
mer school. The present summer ses-
sion shows total enrolment of three
hundred students, one hundred and
fifty of whom are members of religious
communities, eighteen different orders
being represented. There is demand
on the part of these religious COM
munities for college work covering the
entire scholastic year, and the new
department has been created to meet
this demand
The work of the new department
will be in charge of the members of
the faculty of Dubuque College, and
a regular four years college course
will be given leading to the A. B.
degree College courses will be offered
in English, History, Civics, Mathe-
matics, Languages, Natural Science,
Education, Psychology and Philosophy.
Special attention will be given to the
courses in the department of Educa-
tion and the work offered will meet
all the requirements for state GER
tificate. The work of the summer
school will be so ordered as to become
an integral part of the new college
department.
Glasses in the new department will
be conducted in the Science Hall, and
portion of that building has been
reserved for class and recitation
rooms The large number of converts
in Dubuque makes a central college
for religious communities of women
most desirable, and at the same time
increases greatly the residence and
study facilities for the teaching Sis
terhoods of other localities as well as
for those of Dubuque.

new GREEK DIOCESE
POPE ESTABLISHED THE FIRST
IN ITALY AT LANGRO.

AS Langro, which Benedict XIV re-
Gently erected into diocese, is the
first Greek diocese ever erected in
Italy, it continues to attract a good
deal of interest.
The Diocese of Langro lies on the
south coast Of Italy, having a Cath
olic population of 10000 in Calabria
and $4,000 in Sicily. The institution
of Greek diocese is due to the Sa-
cred Congregation for the Oriental
Churches, which the reigning Pontiff
brought into being last year. The ap-
pointment of a Greek Bishop is due
to the petition of the clergy and the
faithful of this part of the country. 1t
puts an end to situation that was
not always the most pleasant in the
world. The Catholics are mostly AL
banians and the descendants OF
Greeks who settled on the Italian
coast.

Priests Eucharistic Congress

brought to close with a solemn pro-
cession on Thursday afternoon, Au-
gust Z, followed by Benediction of the
Blessed Sacrament and the TIE Deum.
Bishop Schrembs, in the course of
his letter to Father Letellier, S. S. S.,
of New York. suggesting that the next
Eucharistic convention be held at
Notre Dame University in August.
Says:
The good Master who has called us
in our common vocation to His Holy
priesthood will surely be pleased to
see us unite for the greater glory and
love of His most precious gift to us,
the Blessed Eucharist.
Is it not from the Eucharist, as our
late glorious Pontiff, the gentle Plus
X, so beautifully expressed it in his
message of love to the Westminster
Eucharistic Congress, "as from it's
source, that the spirit of the super
natural life is diffused over the whole
body of the Church. Here we have
bond whereby the members of the
same body are closely brought to-
gether. In this august Sacrament our
sweet Saviour is really present; and
truly living, although mystically hid
den from us, will dwell till the end of
time. Here then, especially, is the
fame of divine charity enkindled with
in us; here lies the foundation of our
hope. And whereas we regard this
Sacrament as the center of our Faith.
one and the same for all, so likewise
the order of it's conservation, one and
the same for the whole Catholic
priesthood through SO many different
rites, denotes our unity of discipline
and government.
The Eucharist and priest are insep-
arabic. "Dominus pars haereditatis
meae ct calicis mel" If it was said of
the Levites of the Old Law: "Levitae
per gyrum tabernaculi figent tentoria:
| ct eXcubabunt in custodiis tabernaculi
testimonii' (Num. l, 53), then, sure
ly, it is not too much to expect from
the priests of the New Law the closest
companionship with the Holy Euchar-
ist. Isl quis mihi ministrat, me se-
quatur: ct ubi sum ego, illic ct min
lister meus crit" est. John, XII, 26).
Let me ask you in conclusion, dear
Reverend Father and all the members
| of the League, to bear in holy patience
with my inexperience, and to give me
the aid of your prayers that | may be
less unworthy of the responsible posi-
ton you have insisted in placing on
J my shoulders.
