opportunity of the Catholic press.
They ought to realize how thoroughly
such press should be equipped, If 1t
is to do the work, which both the
church and the world will demand OF
it. 1t should have, in the first place,
news service that would command
immediate information from every por-
tion of the globe; that would by detin-
ite information correct misunderstand.
ing or Misrepresentation regarding the
announcements and the actions of the
Holy See. Its news service upon all
matters, that even touch Catholic In
terests, should be so complete and re.
liable that any inquirer might resort
to it with confidence.
To state the problems which the
world is graphing with today, prob
lens very basic and very fundamentals;
to expound their solution is the work
of the Catholic press. But it would be
idle to think that this work can be
done by other than trained or skilled
writer's. 1t requires the master hand,
the literary craftsman who knows his
subject matter intimately and thor
oughly.
A literature is created because of
the enthusiasm of the followers of the
cause which it represents. Our Cath
olic literature and our Catholic press
will grow more perfect as the interest
and enthusiasm of our Catholic peo-
pie in Catholic work and the whole
Catholic cause increases. One feeds
the other. The desire to know of the
extent of our Catholic mission work,
it's manifold departments, will not only
help the Catholic press, it will help the
missions also. How is the church go
ing to meet and answer the intellec-
tual problems of the day, to make
known the findings of it's own "uni-
versity" of ideas, save through the
Catholic press. And can any Catholic
who reviews the fact that it is scholars
and teachers who have been called to
lead and govern the nations of today
remain Indifferent to the fate of Cath
olic scholarship?
Social work today, covering such a
vast field, and exacting such extended
service, is but another word for the

x. OF c. FUNDS.

AS contributor to the United War
Drive Fund you are interested in what
happened to your money. On another
page of this issue, the Knights of
Columbus render an account of their
stewardship. The summary printed
below reveals a work stupendous,
faithfully and honestly and efficiently
performed. The figures are important
enough to stand without comment, but
we would emphasize the fact that not
a penny of funds received was used
in the collection, care, distribution or
administration of the funds.
During the twelve months ended
June 80, 1919, the X. of c. have spent
on War Relief Work $l6.794 ,552.41.
For work in the United States the
X. of c. spent 6S,O6O.79.
For work overseas the X. of C. spent
$9,550,0
On free creature comforts the X. of
G. spent $7,0OO,0O0.OO. More than all
other organization participating in
United War Fund combined.
For administrative purposes, collec-
tion, care and distribution of funds the
K. of c. spent $166,616.76, which sum
was more than derived from cash dis
counts for prompt payment of mer-
chandise bills.

THE UPBUlLDlNG OF THE CATHOLIC PRESS

With there dangers threatening,
slight though they be. it is apparent
that we must hold fast to the tradi-
tions of the past Confidence in the
effectiveness of our system of govern
ment should be manifest by respect for
authority wherever lawfully exercised.
There should be no leniency for those
who would substitute the bomb for the
ballot, the only political weapon Of
American citizens. We should treat
as alien enemies, whatever be their
nativity, those who introduce divisions
foreign to the genius of America. The
punishment prescribed for traitors
should be meted out to those who
would attempt to introduce changes
by methods other than those that are
in accord with our constitution and
laws.
The Irish standard., 1919-09-27

work, which the church has done
through the ages. Our Catholic laity
must know that it is primarily their
work. They must not only know the
problems; they must know how they
can actively serve in meeting the prob
lens. Their hearts long to know this.
Who shall let them know the vast
fields open to them? Only the Cath
olic press can be such an organ of pub
licity and of leadership. 1t is but
leaving the matter in the air if we con-
stantly repeat that our laity should be
active and yet never lay down the def
mite lines on which they may act. To
know these lines, to read also of what
our fellow Catholics are doing-not
only in our own country-but through
out the world, is an incentive and a
guide to them and an evidence that
the Catholic press is fulfilling its mis-
sion.
Plus X declared emphatically that
we would build our schools in vain if
we have not stable, intelligent Cath
olic press. Every Catholic today, cler-
ical and lay, should put his mind and
his hand to this task, the upbuilding
of the entire Catholic press and Cath
olic literature of America.
The Irish standard., 1919-09-27
CONTEMPT OF AUTHORITY.

Thoughtful Americans who love our
institutions and desire their perpetu-
alton recognize that these are days
of danger. 1t is recognized that there
is growing disrespect and lack of
confidence in our institutions of gov
ernment. Complaints are heard not
merely against the Administration or
the party in power but against the
form of government and the funda-
mental principles that underlie it.
Words that were never heard in politi-
cal discussions before are being used
by agitators. New terms are being in
troduced that have no place in our
system of representative democracy,
with it's division of state and federal
powers. Such terms as ''proletariat," J"
"class consciousness" Soviet" are
meaningless in America Bolshevism,
Socialism or anarchy should be un-
thinkable.

The great human family is con-
stantly being drawn closer together.
Mechanical inventions have made the
world much smaller. The nations of
the earth, and the people of the ma
tions are much closer to one another
than ever before; and the problems of
the one quickly become the problems
of all. Such community of life may not
be acceptable to some; but, whether
we like it or not, it is here to stay and
to increase.
AS this fact Games home to us, we
will see more clearly the need OF COM

regard to conduct, that will guide the
whole world and beget justice to all;

ing and charity. Into clearer light

kind, is thrown the position the right
and the authority of the Catholic
church. In all the world she is the
sole church that even claims to be
able to fulfill this present need of the
world. In presenting solution to the
fundamental problems of unity in truth
and in conduct, she gives the light that
will ultimately solve every problem.
Now her light should not be hidden
nor obscured Her voice should not be
like that of the gentle zephyrs, but
rather as the sound of a mighty wind
that fills all the world.
The only power that can today ade-
quately carry her voice is the Catholic
press-the printed word that has mil
lions for audience.
So conspicuous is she in the world
of today that knowledge of her posi-
tion on any living question is sought
by every man. The conduct of her
children becomes readily the gossip of
the world. What works she proposes
to launch; how her institutions labor;
how she affects governments, and how
in turn governments affect her-all
these, and the list might be extended
indefinitely, are news of an inviting
kind to all the world.

At the Illinois.

One Of the biggest phOtoplay pro
auctions of the age, THE Birth of
a Race" will be presented here
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, at
the Illinois theatre, coming direct
from an exceptionally successful
and lengthy engagement in Chica-
COS most exclusive theatres, the
Blackstone and the Playhouse.
Over one million dollars Ias spent
to stage this very out-of-Ne-ordin-
airy picture play and its spectacle
features Guido anything heretofore
seen in any photoplay production.
With its romance, its smiles and
tears and thrills this exceptional
picture play carries one back to
the creation, thence to Noah and
the flood, to Moses, to the crucifx=
ion, to Columbus, to the declara-
ton of independence, to Lincoln,
and into the great world war and
out into the sunshine of peace, with
a better understaIding and a closer
brotherhood between all races and
nationalities. The Birth of a
Race" comes in its original form
in every respect, in no sense a No
. or duplicate production, but in
tact as seen in Chicago at the
Blackstone theatre and the famous
Playhouse on Michigan avenue,
where many of the most elaborate
and pretentious picture plays are
seen. Joseph Breil, composer of
the music for 1.-The Birth of a Ma
ton" and Intolerance" is respon-
sfble for the musical score. a
symphony orchestra of especially
selected musicians will also BE-

to Wallace Reid in his latest Para
mount photoplay, believe Me, Kan

the Black Hawk theatre tomorrow.
In the role of sheriff's daughter.
Miss Little's talents are admirably
displayed. She is a charming,
courageous, quick-witted girl, who
can handle a gun and ride horse
like man, but for all these quail
ties her feminity is her chief
charm. In Believe Me, Xantippe,"
she gives a delightful interpreted
ton of the part of Dolly Kamman,
who, while hunting one day, after
having bagged a deer, is confronted
by a stranger. She asks him if he
is hungry, and he replies Believe
Me, Xantippe, I am" This remark
reminds her of a police circular

a young girl who was supposed to
have been kidnapped while an in

She is supported by cast of nota-

plays the part of Jack DENLY. 9th
ers of the company are Clarence
Burton, Claire Mcdowell, Frank

BREAKS FLYING
START RECORD
Ralph DePalma Again Proves Eff
cheney of Aviation Motor at
DaytOna Beach.

Daytona, Fla, Feb. II. - Ralph
DePalma broke every flying start
worlds records for distance up to
twenty miles, in a specially con-
structed automobile. Most of the
marks against which DePalma rode
were held by foreign cars, and many
of them were of long standing, so
the intrepid Italian took particular
joy in supplanting them with PAGES
made by car thoroughly Ameri-
can in design and construction.
DePalma began adding to the lau-
rels he won on Wednesday when
he set a new mark for the mile
with a record for two miles, which
he Travelled in 1854, as against the
established mark of SIPS, set by
Wild Bob Burman in German
Bitten Benz eight years ago.
A new three-mile record was es-
tabltshed in 1:54 :04, and that was
followed Immediately by a four mile
achievement of 1:39:77.
Then the Ddrracq record for five
miles, 2:34, made by Hemery thir-
teen years ago, went by the board
as the Packard covered the course
faster than the French cars time.
AS DePalma heightened his
course to longer and longer dis
tances, the superiority of his avia-
ton motOred car became more and
more evident. The ten miles was
covered in 4:09:31, more than a
minute faster than the record of
0:14:40 set nine years ago by Bruce
Brown, driving a German Blitzen
Benz.
The twenty mile was the great
est victory of all. DePalma made
it in 9:21:41, as against Burman's
Buick Bug mark of 13:11:92, made
at Jacksonville, Fla, eight years
ago.
In getting the new twenty-miie
record DePalma had to swing out
1872 yards behind the finish line of
the ten mile straightaway, in doub-
ling back on his course. All trials
were observed and all the figures
certified by Richard KennerdeIl,
chairman of the contest board of
the A. a. A. Fred Wagner, veteran
starter, tagged the runs and Capt.
r. A. Leavel of the United States
army motor transport corps oper-
ated the electrical timing device.
The ten and twenty mile speeds
were checked with stop watches
held by Kennerdell, Wagner, and
J. H. Donnelly, the international
harness horse driver.
The car with which DePalma won
yesterdays victories is the same as
that which established the new mile
record last Wednesday, a Packard
