THE SOCIAL SENSE.

Social sense has been defined as a
consciousness of the needs of society
an obligation on the part of
the Individual to contribute in what
ever way he can to the well-being of
society. GA. P. Mooney, M. c. So
cial science treats of the. intercourse
of man with man, as a member of
the domestic, Industrial, commercial
and other groups, his material, intel
lectual and religious well-being as it
affects the Individual. group and soei-

and it did him more good than if he
had heard sermon upon sermon.
He speaks only once, but the wis
dom of his faith shines out through
the bluffness of the soldier No such
difficulties and cavils came to him
as to the Pharisees.

Christ could come, but they had not
pondered on the subject, they had not
meditated nor drawn practical con-
clusion.

The New World,

In the meantime Providence opened
up new world beyond the Atlantic
which became the haven of the down
trodden and prosecuted peoples of
Europe. These in time established
real democracy where authority and
liberty are equally balanced. The
people under God are the source of all
political power. This they transmit
to their rulers. But lest these should
become deSpotic, a constitution de-
fines the limits of their authority, and
in case of dispute court OF final aD-
peal interprets the constitution. Lib
erty and authority are thus perma-
nently safeguarded. Free from the
age-long struggles of liberty against
despotism and of authority against
anarchy, the Church, has enjoyed the
peace necessary to work out her des.
tiny Is it any wonder that in less
than $50 years she has made more
progress in America than in any pre-
vious equal period of her history in
any other country of the world?
Now, if the democracy Of America
is going to be spread to all the peo-
pies of the world, the Catholic Church
may reasonably expect to duplicate in
the world at large what she has ac-
complished in America. She has,
therefore, nothing to fear from the
new world-democracy She welcomes
it with radiant brow and heart full
of confidence.
Ill But what kind of democracies
lie in travail? That is the question
which is filling with misgivings the
members of the Peace Conference and
statesmen and Churchmen the world
over In countries where the old order
has disappeared license and anarchy
are showing their head BolsheVism
has overTun Russia, entered Poland
and Germany and is appearing here
and there even in America. What is
the remedy for this alarming condi-
tion Of the new society? Some say
food for the starving and the unem-
ployed.' Some say "the strong hand
of government for the rebellious.

forces, the study of which intensif1es
that mental outlook which is known
as social sense.
AS Catholics, we are proud of the
glorious history of our Church. Since
the great st. Paul preached justice and
charity two thousand years ago, it
has been preached and practiced by
the Church down to our day. Though,
we are taught, the primary object of
founding the Church was the saliva
ton of souls rather than the regen-
GRAFTON of society, still the Church
for the weak and lowly. We read
in the Didache of the Apostles in the
first century, referring to the stranger
coming to the local church: IF he
has no craft, according to your wis
dom provide how he shall live as a
Christian amongst us, but not in idle
ness. If he will not do this he is traf-
ticking in Christ. Beware of such
men," To further illustrate the social
work of the early Church the follow
ing quotation from THE History of
European Morals (Lecky) is given:
"A vast organization of charity, pre-
sided over by bishops and actively
directed by deacons, soon ramified
over Christendom, till the. bond of
charity became the bond of unity,
and the most distant sections of the
Church correspondent by the inter
change of mercy"
The Trades Guilds.
In the so=called dark ages from
the thirteenth to the fifteenth century
the Trade Guilds fourished under the
auspices of the Church We see how
they made provision for the sick, or
phans, widows, disabled and the old.
AS is well said in western Civiliza-
ton" Cunningham, "The ethical
standpoint which they took is we'll
worth examination and the practical
measures which they recommended
appear to have been highly beneficial
in the circumstances with which they
had to deal"
WHICH t1lC DIGelCulIlS VI LutuCI vi
justification by Faith became so
popular in the sixteenth century, the
whole system of social service was
overturned and the social sense seems
to have been lost for the time being.
At that time we see the Church de-
spoiled and impoverished, the poor
neglected and oppressed; the policy of
individualism and the desire for self
ish gain to have taken possession of
the multitude. Moreover, SO strong
is the power of evil and the influence
of environment that even Catholics
seem to have imbibed in some meas
ure the contagion of individualisnl.
1t is, perhaps, more to Bishop Won
ketteler of Mainz than to any other
we owe the restoration, of Christian
ideals and the reawakening of the So
cial sense. .-,. .r r: .~.,.

Protestant Social Service.

In our day we see a great revival
Of social service among the different
sects, who impudently claim to be
the originators of social work, even
while frankly basing their charity
organization system on the teach,
ings of st. Vincent de Paul While
repudiating their claims to be the
originators of social service we must
admire their methods, which have
made them successful in a field by
right of tradition entirely Catholic.

J Catholic Organizations.

In our country we see many Cath
Ollie endeavors Unfortunately we
cannot say they are all actuated by
the highest Christian ideals. While
truth is sometimes distasteful land
those who publish it unpopular) we
must admit there are many organiza-
lions whose ostensible purpose is to
do social work, but whose executives
place petty ambitions or social ad-
vancement in the first and social en-
deavor in the second place. The only
excuse for such action is ignorance
(if culpable ignorance is an excused
At any rate, on that ground we will
hold them excused. But what of
those who stand on higher plane
and use charity as a stepping-stone
for personal ambition?
Let us then in all humility study
the social needs we see around us,
investigate the cause, and apply what
remedies are in our power. In doing
this we need not go far afield. There
is always someone in our own imme-
date circle in need of advice, SYM
pathy, encouragement, if not material
aid. TO quote the words of Thomas
Carlyle: Let us strive to make this
little spot of earth brighter, holier
and better place to live"
To conclude with the words of Pope
Leo XIII ("Condition of the Work
ing Classes P. 42-50): Every one
should put his hand to the work that
falls to his share, and that at once
and straightway, lest the evil which
is already SO great become through
delay absolutely beyond remedy.
Those who rule the state should avail
themselves Of the laws and institu-
tiOns of the country; masters and
wealthy owners must be mindful of
their duty; the poor, whose interests
are at stake, should make every law
full and proper effort, and since re-
ligiona alone can avail to destroy the
evil at it's root, all men should rest
persuaded that the main thing need
full is to return to real Christianity
apart from which all the plans and
devices of the wisest will prove of
little avail. Never cease to urge upon
men of every class, upon the high
placed as well as the lowly, the Cos.
pei doctrines of Christian life

organization to execute plans for
the erection of a half million dollar
memorial building to be dedicated to
the Leflore soldiers in the recent war
and to the heroes who are daily re-
turning to their homes in this county,
was perfected Tuesday morning at the
chamber Of commerce when so repre-
sentative citizens met to make plans
for an appropriate welcome for the
returning boys. The campaign for this
fund will be launched on the day that
the celebration is held for Leflore's
soldiers. who are daily returning from
the war zone,
o.. F. Bledsoe was chosen president:
John Petty, vice-president; F. Herr,
secretary; c. E., Wright, treasurer. 1t
was the consensus of opinion of those
present, who represented the various
churches, clubs and fraternal organiza-
tons OF the city and county, that in
order to erect a fitting memorial the
building contemplated should be erected
for the use of the people Of the county.
This fact was emphasized and 1t was
pointed out that no organization would
have the right or power to monopolize
the contemplated building. The plans
outlined call for a public building which
will cost approximately $500. 900. 1t is to
be an everyday utility building. 1t
was suggested that the structure be
three stories high, the lower floor to
people from the outlying districts will
be made welcome when they are within
the city; on the second floor will be
located the memorial hall, in which the
name of each soldier who gave his life
in the great struggle will be tabulated
and the names of Battery c will also
be included in an appropriate roster.
According to the plan the building will
also contain swimming pools, gym
nasium, rooms to be used by the Red
Cross, U. d, c., Boy Scouts, Camp Fire
Girls and Legion of Veterans. One fea-
ture of the structure will be an audi
forum which will seat about 5000. 1t
was suggested that the memorial build
ing be located in the center of the
park.
This is the largest amount of money
that has ever been raised in the county
and the matter az to whether subscrip-
tons to the fund could be made an
nually and extended over a period Of
from three to five years was discussed.
No definite action, however, was taken
in the matter. Addresses were made
by w. T. Fountain, DR.. l.. w. Rose,

Petty, A. Bernstein, o. F. Bledsoe, w.

and Supt. c. e. Saunders. Plans were
then made and discussed for the en-
tertainment of the Leflore county SOL
der boys when all have returned to
their homes. 1t was agreed that in
order to give the soldiers fitting well
