A SPLENDID SHOWING
DESTITUTE CATHOLIC CHILDREN
OF BUFFALO WELL PROVIDED
FoR-INTEREsTING REPORT OF
LARGE INSTITUTION,

At the annual meeting of the So
Catholic Children of Buffalo, n. Y,
Right Rev. Bishop Turner presiding,
Mgr Nelson A. Baker, the superin-
tendent, reported that during the year
the society had cared for GAS children
at st. John Protectory, 24S at st. Jo-
seph's Orphanage, SAG in Our Lady Of
Victory Infant Hame, and IS in the
Working Boys Home, total of ,534
The cash expenditures at these institu-
tons amounted to more than $1S7 600.
In order to have sufficient milk for
the infants and small children, there
are 125 cattle, large and small, all of
the Holstein breed, which gives the
most milk. The COWS produced 141,-
GIG quarts of milk and 33,342 pounds
of butter were made. Forty-three
thousand two hundred and thirty-nine
pounds of beef were raised, 1878
pounds of pork, lard, ham, ETC., giving
meat at minimum cost. AS the meat
bill for the past year was $16,441,
twenty-five per cent of what could
have been furnished at wholesale
rates was saved.
Realizing that goats milk, being the
nearest to human milk, is best for in
fants, "a goat farm" was started, there
being already on hand AZ goats, which
are keeping the very small infants in
milk, and the society is trying to in
crease the number.
There were raised 200 tons of fod-
der corn, 100 tons of mangles, % tons
of straw, 900 bushels of oats, 500
bushels of potatoes, 500 bushels of to-
matoes, 2,715 bushels of apples, 34,63S
heads of cabbage, 1880 bushels OF
beets and onions, which have saved
over $4,000.
Choice breeds of hens and ducks
produced last year 1882 hen eggs
and 5,274 duck eggs.
Light truck and vegetable garden
| ing and several acres of the best land
have been set aside to raise garden
vegetables, which gives the boys ar
opportunity of becoming familiar with
| light farm work.
| A new maternity hospital, being
erected by the society, is nearing com
pletion and, when finished, will have
cost about S260,000.
The children cared for by the SO
ciety have become almost exclusively
daily communicates and the Sisters
who prepare the altar breads have
used about 100000 particles during
| the past year, which is evidence OF
youthful piety and gives great promise
| for the future.

CHURCH'S EFFORT TO CARE FOR
HER STUDENTS IN STATE
SCHOOLS.

The Catholic students of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin organized for
social and religious purposes in 1888.
The Melvin Club, so named after a
family at whose home the meetings
were held for many years, was merged
into the Catholic Students Associa-
ton in 1904, writes Rev. H. C. Hengell
of Madison, Wis Weekly classes in
religion were conducted as early as
that for university students by Father
H. c.. Hengell, then assistant priest
at a Madison parish church. This
work, meeting with increased success,
suggested to him the idea of a per-
manent Catholic mission at the Uni
versity Of Wisconsin. At first the idea
met with much opposition. 1t was
feared that such missions would draw
Catholic students to state universities
in competition with Catholic colleges
and universities.
A careful estimate, based upon fig
ures requested and obtained from the
leading secular universities of the
country, disclosed the fact that in
1905-06 there were at least twelve
thousand Catholic students in them
Opposition to Catholic missions at
secular universities could not prevail
in the face of a fact so impressive
Precedent in Europe favored such
missions. Plus TX formally com,
manded the Bishops to establish them
In September, 1906, Archbishop Mess
mer of Milwaukee formally appointed
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1919-09-20

Father Hengell chaplain to the Cath
Ollie students of the University of Wis
consin" To them he was to devote
his full time and energy. He was en-
powered by all the Bishops of Wis
consin to raise funds for site and
buildings. He was the first chaplain
so appointed in the United States.
The Chaplain at the University of
California was, however, a close sec
ond. Several other priests have been
assigned to this work since then. The
movement is growing. Bishops are
realizing their responsibilities in the
matter. Chaplaincies at secular uni
versities do not and cannot supply the
atmosphere of a. good Catholic uni
versity, but they afford sorely-needed
correctives to the social and academic
life of Catholic students at the secular
universities.
In addition to his work among the
Catholic students at the University of
Wisconsin in 1906 and 1907 Father
Hengell personally solicited the funds,
obtained in small subscriptions from
Catholic individuals and societies, to
purchase the site and buildings. The
site was purchased in November, 1906.
The latest building on it, the chapel
| proper, a beautiful Tudor-Gothic
structure in Bedford stone, was COM
pleted in 1909. After this Father
Hengell combined with his work the
chaplaincy of a nearby Sisters Acad-
envy, but he was later compensated
| for this by the appointment of a priest
to assist him in his work among the
Catholic students at the University.
He is very much in love with his work.

THE FELLOW WHO THINKS HE
CAN.

If you think you're beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't;
If you'd like to win, but you think you
can't
It's almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost;
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellows will;
It's all in the state of mind.
Full many a race is lost
Ere ever step is run,
And many coward fails
Ere even his works begun.
Think big and your deeds will grow,
Think small and you'll fall behind,
Think you can, and you Will; ..
It's all in the state of mind
If you think you're outclassed, you
are;
You've got to think high to rise;
You've got to be sure of yourself be-
fore
You ever can win the prize.
Lies battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the fellow who thinks he can.

TIME FOR .POLITENESS.

There is nothing chivalrous about
the young man who steps aside to al
low woman to enter car before
him and then, in his haste, steps on
her heels or on her dress. There is
nothing very generous or kindly in the
favor of business man who gives
someone an interview, at the same
time making the interviewer feel that
he is encroaching on the time of a
man who earns several dollars an
hour. There is no virtue in the hur-
ried handshake that is not accompan-
led by welcome light in the eye; no
affection in the kiss that is given
from force of habit or from custom
Every personal touch that does not
bear the stamp Of genuine courtesy
lis akin to an insult.

will be presented to the Senate on
Monday. The conferees have practi-

amendments to the Ball measure, and
have strengthened it. they believe
1t Will apply to business properties
as well as to RESIDENTIAL properties as

1t Is wise to prevent profiteering in
rent business property. They feel
that exorbitant rents charged for
stores by property owners are passed
along to the customers who must buy
food and clothing.
The conferees have consulted with
members of the Senate and House
District committee. and it is believed
that they will be able to get an agree
ment on the anti-rent profiteering
amendment with comparatively little

CRUEL TREATMENT

Representative Royal Johnson De-

Conditions in the prison camps in
France and the treatment of military
prisoners was as bad as we have been
told on this side and as bad as any
one could imagine" said Representa-

subcommittee of the special House
committee investigating war expendi-
lures on his return to Washington to-
day.
Representative Johnson led a COM
pany of American soldiers in the Ar
gonne and has received medals of
honor for distinguished service. In
company with Representative Bland
and Representative Flood of Virginia
he has been in France for some time
making an investigation for the con-

Bland gave a statement to the news
papers and Representative Flood of
Virginia, the minority member, prom
ised to issue a statement this after
noon. Representative Johnson, the
chairman, said today:
Our committee can make no report
until the records are all in and check
ed. This will occupy several weeks. as
there is mass of testimony and of
exhibits.
Until all the testimony is in-and
there is much to be taken on every
point from men in the United States,
whose names We secured in France
we cannot make report nor can we
form a reliable conclusion.
''While the treatment of prisoners
was such as to arouse indignation,
this phase Of our investigation was
a minor matter. The big part of our
investigation was regarding expendl-
lures and the sale of American goods
to the French and other governments,
and to French and other people.

tion that will amaze the American
