WITH THE CzECHS
SUCCEEDING IN SEC
ULARIZING SCHOOLS.

(By N. C. w. C.. News Service.)
At numerous gatherings of Social
lists and freethinkers in the various
cities of Czecho- Slovakia resolutions
demanding the separation of Church
and State and the secularizing of the
schools are being carried by large
majorities. This campaign is in
furtherance of the program of Presi-
dent Masaryk and his associates, who
hope to secularize the schools even be-
fore the relations between the State
and the Church shall have been fixed
and determined.
Before the opening of the schools
for the year-on August 1-prepara-
lions were made by the Socialists and
freethinkers to accomplish their de-
sign of secularization. AS the children
take their entrance examinations for
the schools, during the latter part of
August, their parents were inter
rogated as to whether they desire
their little ones to have religious in
structions. In many cases the parents
are previously primed to answer mega
lively, and thus the e-Christianizing
of the schools is being effected with
out reference to the ultimate decision
of the people.

(By N. G.. w. &. News SerVice.)
In a communication received lately
at New York, mention is made of four
Chinese women, all fervent Catholics,
and daughters Of a remarkable mother,
who have been recently decorated by
Pope Benedict XIV.
The mother, Mrs. Sophie Song, was
known for a charity inspired wholly
by the love of God. Her bounty was
felt especially by Missioners and re-
ligious communities. One of. her
daughters, Cecilia, was a Carmelite,
and Mrs. Song died at the Carmelite
Monastery. Her four daughters, who
remained in the world, Miss Lucy
Song, Mrs. Martha Tao, Mrs. Cath
crime Tsu and Miss Sophie Song, have
followed in the footsteps of their
mother and their piety made it pos
sible for Bishop Reynaud of Cheh-
Kiang, to build his preparatory semi
nary, where there are now more than
one hundred Students In his report,
Bishop Reynaud points out the wis
dom of encouraging the initiative of
fervent and influential Christians in a
country where, as rule, the people
expect the Missioners to supply all
needs.

Catholic people in this rich parish
have lamented the fact that while they
have splendid church and pastors
residence the most essential thing, a
Catholic school, was absent. That
long felt want is now filed, and it is
to be hoped that the people will real
ize both the sacrafce the sisters have
made and the need of Catholic train
ing for the children.
The reports from parochfal schools
and academies would indicate that the
registration is larger this year than in
other years 1t is certainly consoling
to know that so many Catholics are
ready to make sacrifices to send their
children where they will acquire not
only the technical knowledge that
makes for success here, but also an
of their duties towards
man and towards God.
