REFUSES PURSE
ARCHBISHOP MANNIX OF AUS
TRALlA REJECTS GIFTS OF
O,O0O-DESlRES TO DIE POOR.

At public meeting in Cathedral
hall, in Melbourne, Australia, it was
decided to present the Most Rev.
Archbishop ManniX with gift of
$3.50, 900, as a testimonial of the .es-
TEEN in which he is held in Australia.
Archbishop ManniX will leave on the
steamer Ventura for San Francisco on
May 10, en- route to Rome for his ad
limina visit to the Pope, and it was
proposed to present him with the
check before sailing
But DR.. ManniX's friends had recil
oned without his permission and he
courteously but firmly refused the
gift At a meeting of the Hibe.nians
on the following day, DR.. Man1ix said
that if those moving in the matter
had come to him beforehand they
would have learned that in no circum
stances would he be prepared to take
any monetary presentation. 1t might
appear that he was churlish, but he
had made it a principle of his life
never to accept a monetary presenta
ton. He was provided for by the
generosity of the Australian people
and he knew that he would be pro
vided for in every reasonable need in
the future. When he died as Arch
bishop of Melbourne he hoped he would
not have one penny in his personal
account.

KING AIDS CHILDREN
RULER OF SPAIN OPENS PALACE
TO SOME OF THE FIVE MILLION
ROPE.

The Save the Children Fund which
is working in direct accord with the
Holy See for the relief of the starv-
ing children of Central Europe, states
that the King of Spain has offered the
Royal Palace of the Prado to the Fund,
for the purpose of housing 500 suffer
ing children from Vienna.
The interest the king and queen
have shown on behalf of the five mil
lion starving children in the famine
areas of Europe, will have valuable re-
suits in stirring up the whole of Spain
to take part in this benevolent work.
The British government has given
its approval to the plan which will
place large numbers of the suffering
children in private homes in Great
Britain for year. AS soon as the
necessary medical examinations have
been carried out, the first patches of
children will be sent in the care of
guardians to the United Kingdom,

HOLY NAME FACTS
LARGE PARADE TO MARK PROG
RESS OF THE DEVoTlCN-ORI-
GIN OF GREAT SOCIETY,".

The pretentious plans now being
| made for the public procession OF
more than seven thousand members
Of the Holy Name Society from Vir
ginia. Maryland and Washington, D.
c., to be held on Sunday. May 8, in
Alexandria, Va, are serving to create
new interest in the splendid progress
which this society. with history
reaching back to the middle ages, has
achieved in America in the past few
years
According to the Rev. Ignatius
Smith, O. p, national director of the
organization, the membership of the
Holy Name Society in the United
States is now 100000 with new mem
bers rapidly pouring in. More than
100000 Holy Name men served in the
war, according to Father Smith
The spread Of public devotion to the
Holy Name of Jesus had its origin in
the Council of Lyons in 1874, which
prescribed that the faithful every
where should foster it in order to
make PREPARATION for the insults of the
Albigenses and other blasphemers.
Pope Gregory X selected the Domin-
leans to preach the devotion. Among
the early preachers who were famed
for their elOQuence and for the saint
Illness Of their lives were st. Peter
Martyr, Blessed Ambrose of Siena
and Blessed Henry Susa.
The first public procession recorded
in honor Of the Holy Name was the
one at Lisbon, Portugal, on January ],
1873, held by the people of that city
in Thanksgiving for their deliVerance
from q plague, which deliVerancc was
attributed to the preaching Of the de
votion to the Holy Name by Andrea
DiaZ, retired Dominican bishop.
The society has grown with leaps
and bounds since its Introduction into
the United States. 1t boasts many
notable branches. The New York 20
lice department branch has a member
ship of more than 5000 and they pre-
scented an inspiring spectacle on the
occasion Of their annual Communion
Mass in st. Patrick's Cathedral. More,
than $500 men marched in uniform to
the church and Archbishop Hayes, us
sisted by MOnSi%nOr LaVellc and
seven other priests, gave them Holy
Communion. All during the Mass,
rows Of men were approaching the
Holy Table.
Plans are now being made to estab-
1iSh branches Of tho COcioty, in nroc
tically every foreign-language speak
ing colony Of Catholics in the United
States. The Slovenian Catholic
League of America has taken the in
itiative in this movement, and it is eX-
pected that soon a branch of the so
ciety will be brought into existence in
every Slovenian colony in the country.

GREAT CONVENTION WAS HELD

France has no nationwide organi-

fostering Christian life in their mem

around them in every form of zeal
and apostolate, have a total member
ship of 100000.
Another organization was formed
about the same time and devOtes its
efforts to the civic and political edu-
cation of French women to prepare
them to make the best use of woman
suffrage, which is looked for in
France in the nOt-diStant future. This
society, called the Action SOciale de
la Femme, held in Paris on April
23-25 great convention destined to
elicit the French WOman'S conventions
OF family life, of industrial problems
and Of patriotism.
The program received the Holy Fa-
theirs approval and was discussed be-

from France and from several other
countries. 1t is the ambition of the
leaders of this movement, who form
the very elite of French society. to
bring into closer union and coOpera-

II is said that the action of the
school board in raising the salary of
one of the teachers, and not of the
others, has caused number of Rutland
high school teachers to get in touch
with teachers agencies in various
places relative to seeking places else
where. Inference from teachers who
have been questioned about the matter
tends to show that such is the case.
