TO THE EDITOR
OVERSEAS CHAPLAIN WRITES ON
RECENT INCIDENT.
To the Editor.

To the Editor:
Father Mennis' experience at Aber-
deem on Armistice day, as mentioned
in the Catholic, Bulletin last week, is
regrettable. He was prepared and
undoubtedly would have done honor
to the occasion. But I am certain
that the affront was from Commander
Veil and not from the American Le-
gion.
The American Legion neither in it's
constitution or as body is antago-
nistic to Catholics or the Church. I
know that the state chaplains of Min
nesota, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin and
Missouri are Catholic priests; many
of the commanders and other officers
are Catholics, and the first command
er of the Minnesota department of
the Ladies' Auxiliary of the American
Legion is Catholic.
I know, furthermore, that the Amer
lean Legion does not tolerate bigotry.
One of the candidates for national
| commander at the national convention
held at Cleveland September 81, not
withstanding that he was supported
| by the largest state delegation at the
convention, quit the race after ar
irving at Cleveland, after he was in
| formed that he could not be elected
| because of bigoted remarks made by
him after the Minneapolis convention.
know there are bigots in the Amer
lean Legion, but it is unjust to con-
denim the American Legion because of
a few pinheads.
| suggest that Father Mennis quit
pining over the incident, and that he
plan for the election of a successor
to Mr.. Veil. Also I suggest the adop
ton of Legion policy of aggressive
ness when rights are trampled on. For
a year men of the Legion were long
suffering and they felt their chances
politically were slim; but watchful
waiting convinced them that they re
ceived nothing but contempt; so al
last they demanded their rights, es
pecially for their disabled buddies
and at last they are listened to. The!

odds to enter the political arena anc
they have been rather successful
they have only begun the good work
Forget this little incident, Father
and help along the boys. They art
your best friends, and always depend
upon them as a body to be square. TIL
hope of democracy in America is tn
Legion. They ask no favors but tn
square deal for every American.
am sorry, Father, but l assure yo
the feeling toward you on Armistic
Day was local.

DIOCESE OF FARGO

Grand Forks: On Thursday even
ing, December 9, the people of St.
Michael's parish, capitalized by Father
Dougherty, assistant pastor, brought
one of the most successful bazaars in
the history of the parish to an end,
The bazaar was backed by every par
ish organization from the altar boys to
the Altar society. Each organization
did it's best to make the affair a sue
cess. The net proceeds amounted to
$4,000. Rt. Rev. Monsignor Lemiuex
is very we'll pleased with the outcome
of the bazaar, which was arranged for
the purpose of meeting the payments
on the funded Indebtedness of the
school. The bazaar covered a period
of three nights. On each evening a
supper was served which was prepared
by the male members of the parish
and served by the women. Much cred
it for the success of the bazaar is to
be given to Father Dougherty, who
was appointed general manager of the
affair by Monsignor Lemiuex.
Many social events are being plan
ned by the members of the University
of North Dakota Students Catholic
Association, according to an announce
ment made by Francis J. Webb, presi-
| dent of the society. Plans are being
made to give big booster banquet
| shortly after school reconvenes for
the post holiday period. 1t is felt by
the members that the social work of
| the society can best be accomplished
| by frequent events which help to keep
the interest stimulated in the work.
Efforts are being made by members
to arrange for holding meetings in
the K. of G. club rooms.
At an informal meeting held in the
Council rooms Monday evening, De-
cember Is, the members of Grand

L0OT|NG OF CORK
BISHOP SHAHAN ExCORIATES
BRITISH GOVERNMENT FOR
FOUL MURDER AND ANARCHY
IN IRELAND.
(By N. C.. w. G.. News Service)

(By N. C. w. G. News Service).
The Right Rev. Thomas J. shahan,
rector of the Catholic University, has
issued the following statement on the
burning Of the town of Cork.
Bishop Shahan says in part:
The burning of Cork surpasses in
grim horror and fierce injustice the
crime of Louvain. The little academic
city of the Belgians was given over to
arson and pillage in the name of the
German Empire, and under direction
of the German military forces, where
upon England reused the entire world
with her passionate denunciation of
the crime of the ages Now she has
herself committed super-crime, not
in the name of any authorized govern
ment agency, but in the name, spirit
and principle of anarchy. Maliciously
the English Parliament squints at it's
own agents, clothed by itrwith omnipo-
tence and irresponsibility, and en-
courages Bolshevist practices that to,
morrow will come home to London
with sanguinary interest, in as far as
the loot of London surpasses that of
Cork, and the red-eyed rage of it's
dumb masses can work out in deeds
of horror that will make the ashes of
Cork look like playground
If this be the liberty that the Eng.
fish government would force upon Ire
land, who can blame the immense ma
jority of the Irish people for reject
ing it, backs to the wall. Better a
thousand times to die by the bullets
of English anarchy in defense of true
liberty than to yield a poltroon, abject
compliance with the dictates of a
drunken English police, gathered in
the scums of London, petted like hired
gladiators, and turned, loose upon a
great religious and peaceful nation tc
which for over: thousand years al
western mankind is debtor beyond
calculation or payment, and whose af
fectionate children are scattered the
world over, wherever English accents
are heard. -.
Let all America arise as one man tt
denounce this unspeakable crime
which is directly aimed at ourselves
for if anarchy can reign supreme ir
Ireland, by what logic can we repres:
| anarchy in New York or in Seattle?

DIOCESE OF DULUTH

Duluth: The Right Reverend Bish-
OPP is most anxious that copy of the
following appeal be placed in the
hands of every Catholic in the diocese.
My Christmas Gift to the Holy Father.
81 did not think of a Christmas Gift
for the Holy Father until last year.
I am planning now to give my best
Christmas present to the Pope. This
brings me little nearer to the Vicar
of Christ. 1t has given me a personal
love and devotion for the Holy Father
that l did not know was possible for
me, simple child of the Church"
(These lines were written to Bishop
McNicholas.)
May every Catholic of Duluth Dio.
cese express these sentiments. May
all who have money to spend for
Christmac presents be as generous as
their means will permit, and may the
Lord, the Giver of all good things,
bless their generosity. May He re-
compense a hundred fold those who
make any sacrifice for Christ's Vicar
on earth.
The Holy Fathers personal needs
are so simple and few as to be almost
incredible to us Americans. He has
hundreds of thousands of children, yes
millions, crying out to him for help.
One of the greatest consultations the
Holy Father has. is to extend help by
the means that we put into his hands.
Let your best Christmas gift be for
the Holy Father. Pray for Him and
offer Holy Communions for the inten-
tons of His Holiness.
Try to interest others.
Rev. Father Thuente, O. P, was a
guest of the Right Reverend Bishop
last week.
A very we'll defined paper on
the Mental Test" and it's dag
nostic value in the school was read by
Sister Katharine before Duluth Coun-
Gil of Catholic Women at their regl-
lar monthly meeting. Doctor Homan
of the department of psychology, Du-
luth Normal School, and Miss Ander-
son, Duluth supervisor of classes for
subnormal children, also addressed the
meeting. A committee, Mrs. Cross.
man as chairman, was appointed to
help carry forward the survey of the
Catholic schools of Duluth which is
now being made under the direction
of Sister Katharine.

December 6, 1920.
To the Editor:
The Catholic Bulletin of December 4
carries a stirring appeal made by
Bishop Drumm of Des Moines, Iowa.
The entire Catholic press should copy
it. The coming year should be devot-
ed to crusade for the Catholic press.
If Catholics in general knew the strug.
giles of Catholic editors their hearts
would melt. The priests have been
remiss in this line. Get Catholics to
read Catholic papers, and the public
press telling of crimes will become in.

zled about your Christmas donations.

lie. You will never regret it..
