Grand Forks citizens moved their
clocks forward n hour Sunday
morning in compliance with the Day
light Saving law, and the change was
accomplished with little friction and
few ''miXups."
1t should be borne in mind that this
change in time does not apply to
Canada, and travellers to Winnipeg,
and other Canadian points should
govern themselves accordingly.
The change which vent into effect
Sunday of course affected to some ex-
tent the schedules of the railway
trains which were caught in transit
by the change but this matter is auto
matically adjusting itself, and the last
difficulty on this score is being obviat-
ed today.
Incidentally the change supplied an
excellent alibi to those citizens who
were late to church.

Intention for January: Devotion
to the Holy Family. This is a
most appropriate subject for medi-
tation by Catholics at the present
day.
The family. forms the nucleus
of activity in the Christian devel-
opment of the faithful. 1t stands
as the basis Of society, the social
unit. Not that the individual
should be submerged in this proc
ess of development, but that he
forms an integral part of the
family unit, and partakes OF its
life, spirit and progress. He brings
to bear upon it the influence OF
his personality: in return, he IS
influenced by the varied activities
that go to make up its round OF
existence. For better or for worse
the individual usually is reflex
of the conditions that obtain in the

OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE Do
CESE OF DULUTH.

In this issue we publish an Off
cial letter from the Right Rever-
end Bishop Of Duluth. Bishop
McNicholas has been known for
some time both here and abroad
as the ardent champion Of all that
tends towards the uplift of re-
ligion. His ability in this direc-
ton was displayed in the wonder
full work of the Holy Name So
ciety which, under his leadership,
arose to membership of one and
one-half million members. This
work was also continued and aug
mented through the Holy Name
Journal which he conducted.
Realizing the potent value of
the Catholic press as an agency
for the defense and spread OF the
faith, Bishop McNicholas has de-
cided to make The Catholic Bull
letin the official organ Of his do
cese, and the medium Of all his
communications Of a public nature
to clergy and people under his
jurisdiction.
In order to foster a love for
things Catholic, the Bishop has
suggested that this paper be intro
duced into the schools Of his do
cese, and that it be made a subject
of study, in a certain sense, by
the pupils. In this way not only
a knowledge Of but also love
for the Catholic press will be en-
gendered in the youthful minds OF
the children. This cannot but
bring forth fruit in abundance in
the years to come, with advantage
to the individual as well as to the
Church.
We wish to assure the Right
Reverend Bishop that we appre
ciate the honor which he has con
ferred upon The Catholic Bulletin
and we trust that his efforts along
this line will prove a powerful
factor in promoting the work Of
the Catholic press, and in ,advanc
ing the cause of religion both IL
his own diocese and elsewhere.

ness of ideas or weakness OF mo-
tive or execution on his part.
Especially did his courage show
forth when his darts were aimed
at great malefactors the howl
that invariably resulted was al
ways accompanied by wincing
and a writing that showed but
too plainly that the shaft had
pierced a sore spot. Persons near
the top claimed privileges of ex-
emption, legislative bodies cried
treason, and moneyed kings al
legged persecution. When all the
smoke Of battle passed there was
the same immovable figure, point
ing the finger Of condemnation at
the quailing form of the hypo-
critic, whether writer or senator,
corporation or trust, bigot, food
poisoner, or the heartless murder
err Of the unborn fruit of wedlock.
When the clouds Of war lowered
upon the nation, Theodore Roose-
welt was one Of the first to offer
himself to the country. Unable to
60 to the front, he beheld his four
sons eagerly enter the fray with
the old Roosevelt verve and vim,
while his daughters served their
country in Red Cross work. AS
for himself, the old Roman, the
noblest of them all, he stirred the
nation with pen and voice to the
heights Of enthusiastic support Of
our cause. His vigorous language
not seldom aroused adverse criti-
cism: no one, however, for a mo-
ment doubted that Theodore
Roosevelt was the true embodi-
ment Of the American spirit. His
last utterance, read in New York
few hours before his death,
breathes the purest and Hottest
principles of Americanism.
It will take time, at least a gen.
Grafton Or two, to appreciate Theo-
dore Roosevelt at his true stature.
AS his name and deeds appear
respondent and luminous in the
background of the history of our
age, then only will he take his
rightful place in the permanent
record of human achievements.

"The Catholic Convert the
bright three-year-old quarterly
which has been striving nobly for
1.-THE movement back to Holy
Mother Church," has decided to
withdraw from the field. The
work is not altogether abandoned,
but necessity demands the tenn
porary retirement OF the journal.
The cost of publication has in
creased. The volunteer contrib
utors were called away from their
labors of love by the exigencies of
the times, while new ones were not
forthcoming. We are sorry to
learn that this laudable enterprise
has not been duly supported. The
Quarterly was always full of in
teresting articles and they were
read by thousands who were not
converts. We hope that our con-
temporary will appear again, and
that meanwhile it's promoters will
find both patrons and patronage,
Of such sort that it will never
again experience the vicissitudes
of poverty.

CECIL CHESTERTON.

The editor Of The New Witness,
Private Cecil Chesterton, has died
at Boulogne, France, from illness
contracted in the trenches. Nearly
two years ago he joined the High
land Light Infantry. He was
fighting on the front lines when
the war closed. He died in the
way his choice lay.
He had been a brave fighter all
his days, and he fought always
valiantly for right as he saw it,
comments the New World. He
had fought his way up to the
Catholic Church, and once in her
fold she had no more vvalorous de-
fender. He had welded one Of
the most powerful pens in Eng
land. The war did not blunt it,
but the urge Of patriotism caused
him to lay it aside for what he
thought was a more insistent call.
Externally there was little Of the
soldier about him. But as he had
not shirked in peace, neither would
he in war. What Randicaps were
his he surmounted, and his in
domitable will brought him into
the thick Of the fight, a place
where he wanted to be So passed
brave soldier of truth.
The England that looks forward
to democracy and decency could
i'll spare him. The noble list Of
his enemies, traitors, traffickers
and profteers, has a new lease Of
license. The New Witness, the
most fearless publication in the
English tongue, and Of which he
was the founder, can hardly ex-
pect to replace him. Not even the
brilliancy Of his brother, the
famous G. K, can quite make up
the loss. It is a queer trick OF
fate that as Cecil Chesterton is
passing away the motley crowd OF
politicians against whom he had
hit laundering blows with his
mighty hammer, is just coming
into greater power. They are the
mouthers of democracy, gaining
in wealth and prestige by its ad.
vocacy. He was it's real cham
pion and he staked his life on his
creed.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1919-01-11

, ticular likes and dislikes that dis
tinguish the other members Of the
household. He imbibes the prin-
ciples that guide the various mem
bers in their relations to one an
other as well as towards the outer
world. His view of life is not
only colored but vitalized by those
principles. Through the telescope
Of the family he beholds the world
and all it's variety. The scene is
scared into his soul, and his sub
sequent life and actions usually
are patterned after the view which
is thus impaired.
In the family there come into
play all those virtues which Chris
tianity reveals as essential to right
living. There mutual love and
forbearance terminate; purity Of
conduct and speech begets the
chaste young man and the modest
maiden; affection between hus-
band and wife lays the foundation
for conjugal fidelity in the hearts
Of the young when they, too, are
called upon later in life to assume
the burdens and responsibilities of
the marital state; deep religious
sense will flower with the years in
the minds Of the children when
they may be called to the religious
or the priestly state. The family,
in a word, is the seminary whence
issue the candidates for true Chris
tan living and conduct.
Woe betide those parents whose
reprehensible conduct serves to
ALLEVIATE the affection Of their chill
dren, to inspire them with indif-
ference towards religion and vir-
tue, to lower the standard of
purity and uprightness to which
those children have an abso-
lutte right. Obedience is never pro-
noted by nagging; virtue is not
instilled through the medium Of
bad example in speech Or conduct !;
a love Of temperate living is not
begotten through overindulgence
or excess in any way. The filial
devotion of man or woman never
is assured towards aged parents
when those same parents have
stood forth as living examples Of
evil, Indifference, or impiety.
The Holy Family Of Nazareth
speaks to the world in words of
efficacy and power. There God
Himself became the humblest
member Of the little household,
obedient and loving. Mary show
cred affection upon her spouse and
her Divine Son. Joseph, with law
full pride and a spirit of true de-
tachment, guided the fortunes of
the humble family through the
dangers from enemies as well as
the sting Of poverty. This little
unit in far off, Nazareth is the
model upon which every Christian
family must endeavor to mold it.

are to survive in the heart Of the
rising generation.

SUICIDE IN WET AND DRY
CITIES.

The Spectator, of New York, has re-
Gently analysed suicide statistics in
100 American cities covering the pc
riod 1902 to 1917.
The study shows in general what
has been noticed in particular cities
that enactment of prohibition has
most favorable tendency on the sui
eide rate. The lowest rate in the Spec
tator's hundred is in the dry city of
Nashville, Tennessee, with a rate of
3.4 in 1917, and the highest in San
Diego of 1872 in 1917 The suicide
rate decreased in rs of the cities, the
comparison being between 1926,
and 1917, but while the average de-
crease for 100 cities was only 3.4,
Portland, Oregon, showed a decrease
of 10.2; Tacoma, Washington. of 15.2;
Savannah, Georgia, of 7.3; Atlanta,
Georgia, of 3d. Seattle, Washington,
of III. These decreases were net and
the percentages in many cases were
extraordinarily high. For instance, in
Nashville, Tennessee, the decrease
was S1.4qo of the initial rate.
The decline was most pronounced in
the Southern cities with the Pacific
coast cities second. Both the South
and Pacific coast are, of coarse. pro-
hibition territory. In the Eastern
cities the actual decline was "a; in
the central cities 81: in the Southern
cities 4.6; in the Rocky Mountain
cities 81; and in the cities of the Pa
cific coast &c.
