Helen Hughes Hielscher.)

"There will be no going back, it is
better for the peoples sake that these
men should die.'-Bonar Law, Nova
Scotian by birth.
In the days when the Lord and Master
Walked this weary earth
He was harried by priests and rulers
And put to cruel death;
And one of the high priests, Caiphas,
In council learned and high,
Proclaimed that for the people
1t was better that one should die.
He was led like sheep to the
slaughter,
Driven with goad and rod;
But the power Of passive resistance
Was proved by the Son of God.
For dead on the cross they feared
Him,
And lance through His side they
drave.
And they begged from the Roman
tribune
Soldiers to guard His grave.
A follower in His footsteps
Gives his life that men may live;
Not indeed the gift of the Master
But all that he has to give
And modern Caiphas speaketh
And proclaims from the council
high
That for the sake Of the people
1t is better that one should die.
Thus God in His infinite wisdom
| Makes false lips speak the truth,
While the world repeats in it's dotage
| The foolishness Of its youth.
| Now the people that passed unheedine
| Have stopped with curious eyes,
And ask, What crime was proven
Against this man who dies?"
Broken and chained and plundered
He had but one gift to give,
And he flung it on Freedoms altar
That his helpless land might live;
Love for the land that bore him
4 IS not crime or shame:
II turns a British prison
/ no an Irish hall Of fame.''

ST. VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY
1 HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING IN
NATIONAL CAPITAL.

The annual meeting of the Society
of ST. Vincent de Paul was held at the
Catholic University, Washington, D. c.,
September II to 16, in conjunction
with the sixth biennial session of the
National Conference of Catholic
Charities.
The session began with the celebra-
ton of Mass by His Excellency, Arch
bishop John. Bonzano, D. D., Apostolic
Delegate, and a sermon by Rt. Rev.
Thomas J. Shahan, D. D., President
of the Catholic University. Bishop
Shahan made an earnest appeal to all
Catholics to encourage and assist in
the training of young men and women
in social work and suggested the Of
fering of scholarships in social work
in our Catholic universities and col
leges, as a means to this end.
Great enthusiasm was displayed
throughout the convention which was
attended by about one hundred and
fifty delegates from all parts of the
country. The reports submitted by
the various Particular Councils of the
Society indicated that vast amount
of relief work was being accomplished
and that the society was extending its
activities to include practically. al
branches of charitable work. Particu
lar emphasis was laid on the spiritual
side of Catholic charity as distin
guished from public philanthropy.
Papers were read on getting young
| men into the society; legal aid to the
poor; relations of the Society of st
Vincent de Paul with Central Bureaus
| of Catholic Charities; Vincentian in
terest in the spiritual welfare of thu
poor, and other subjects.

More than 100000 copies of the
Bishops pamphlet on Social Re

new requests are being received

highly praised by scholars and is
being used in many non-Catholic

therein and the sane and construc-

an ideal instrument for sociologi-

"The government s course in

than is this masterpiece which

The story is simple.
Stripped of it's charm of setting,
and the subtle delicacy of its treat
ment, we have a tale presenting
few characters, and with no very
extended scope for action. 1t is in
it's emotional quality that its power
lies; and this emotion centers about
the moral conflict of the heroine,
and her transition from a creature
seeking mere happiness to woman
of alert conscience and aroused
soul.
The scene of the novel is the
same small Pennsylvania town in
which Mrs. Deland has placed two
previous books: odd Chester Tales
and Doctor Lavendar," and it is
