SICK CALLS.

The following article, taken from
The Catholic Record Uondon, Cam =,
should be perused attentively and it's
injunctions needed:
Every Catholic will, at some time in
his life, be called upon to care for a
sick friend or relative 1t is there
fore of great Importance that every
one know just what to do when the
emergency arrives. Aside from the
duty of obtaining the best possible
medical service and nursing, it is of
paramount Importance that the priest
be called in time, so that the spiritual
welfare of the patient be guarded
When should we send for the priest?
Generally speaking, whenever it be-
comes apparent that there is danger
of death. Such diseases as typhoid
fever, diphtheria, pneumonia are to be
considered as dangerous; and the
priest should be notified. Frequently
the patients recover. But, in many
cases, the malignant nature of the all
ment does not manifest itself until the
fever has risen so high that the pa
tient becomes delirious. And then it
will be impossible for the priest to
obtain a confession.
Many people do not send for the
priest until the hour of the death
agony has set in. This is most un-
just to the sick person. For it is
very difficult for one expiring to pray
deyOutly or to receive the sacraments
with as much devotion as he or she
would WISH Besides the priest may
be detained, or may be engaged in
work which he can not leave, and
his arrival at the sick bed may be
too late.
Sometimes it is advisable to notify
the priest even though there is no ap-
parent danger Of DEATH Thus for in
stance, if we know the sick person to
have been careless in religious mat
ters, and probably to be in the state
Of mortal sin, the priest should be ac-
QUainted with the conditions, and will
be able to decide whether or not
visit from him would be advisable.
But perhaps there is a Catholic in
your home, whom you know to be dan
gerOusly sick, but refuses to have the
priest come until he expressly sends
for him. In such cases be it remem-
bered that the sick very seldom know
and they refuse to believe that there
is POSSIBILITY Of an early demise.
Send for the priest even against the
wishes of the patient. Or at least.
inform the pastor of the nature of
your patients illness and his unwill-
ingness to have spiritual ministration.
But what shall we do in cases of
accidental deaths, or deaths due to
heart failure, electrocution, drown
ing, etc.? Notify the priest as soon as
possible. Medical science has estab-
lished the fact that in instances of
with the last breath, but may be Ia
tent for hours. No matter what the
appearance Of the supposed corpse, no
matter if everything seems to indicate
call priest. If the vic
tim had only a moment to make an
dCL Vi Imperfect COllIlIIOl, Iue dlOlul-
ing or the absolution will save his
soul. The Sacraments are for all peo-
pie and for that reason should not
be denied them if there is the least
hope of life existing. That hope is
present in cases of sudden deaths; for
we have the testimony of medical men
the world over to prove the existence
of latent life after apparent death.

 Surprisingly cool is the expression of the many who are still dancing at the American. Although the pretty dance hall, whose popularity has long been established, is located right on a busy down town street, it's wide open spaces along the roof and it's many fans keep cool breezes ever in motion. King Brady, Ralph Scott, Lyall Stock ton and the other talented musicians who are on duty there nightly are al- ways ready to give that brand of music which has joy in it's every note. Their melodies are just as surely filled with life and dance inspiration as they were during the winter months and Phoenix people are gladly availing themselves of the opportunity to let dancing con tinue their favorite diversion.
