EDUCATIONAL OUTLOOK IN
CHINA.

The missioners sent out by Mary
Seminary, report some very interest
ing data on the educational outlook in
China. This young society is located
in the province of kwangtung on the
southern coast, with diocesan head
quarters at Canton. In Canton is also
the site of the Canton Christian col
lege, a Presbyterian foundation later
placed on an undenomnational basis.
A bulletin prepared by this College
reports in China 5000 Protestant mis-
siOnaries, of whom 1890 are Amer
leans. Of these Americans 800 are
under Protestant auspices. The schools
number 115 kindergartens, 5,276 high
schools, % colleges, 1856 normal
schools, 81 theological schools, 40 in
dustrial schools, and 40 orphanages. a
total of 6,493 institutions. These
schools show a total enrolment of
17O,659 students distributed as fol-
lows: 1886 kindergarten, 1858 high
school, 1.499 college, 1.4O9 industrial,
9S5 theological, and 1,544 orphans.
There is no attempt in this bulletin
to summarize the Catholic work done
for Education in China. Admission is
made of the existence of Catholic edu-
cational activity and it is acknowl-
edged that some of the best scienti-
fc work ever done in China, in both
former and recent years, has been
under French Catholic auspices
Of course, the American Catholic
contribution is as yet negligible. A
few individual Americans may be
found scattered over China in connec,
ton with French, German, or Belgian
institutions; but till 1918, when Mary
knoll-in- China was founded, there was
no distinctively American Catholic So
ciety in China. The plans of the
American Catholic Society are to start
educational establishments in every
mission, and progress depends in
great measure upon the cooperation
of American Catholics in this repre-
sentative work.

CASES OF POSSESSION OR CD.
SESSION.

Spiritsm, or communication with the
departed, is greatly before the public
Just now, and while Catholics are not
concerned with it, as their religion
strictly fOrbids such practices, side
issue is of interest as it touches on
diabOlical possession, in which the
Church does believe.
Frequently, in mission publications,
appear strictly authentic experiences
penned by missionaries, dealing with
most extraordinary manifestations OF
possession. Names, dates, localities
are carefully given, also the spiritual
means by which the evil spirits are
eXorciZed.
1t is curious to see how identical
are opinions of that well-known psy-
biologist, Professor James, a Protes-
tant, on the subject. The English
Messenger of the Sacred Heart prints
an extract from one of his lectures
which perhaps some of the mission
aries will be glad to read. The symp-
toms spoken of are exactly those de-
scrbed by missionaries.
i
iacal possession on historic grounds
as definite type of affliction, very
widespread in place and time, and
characterized by definite symptoms,
the chief of which are these: The
subject is attacked at intervals for
short periods, a few hours at most
and between whites is perfectly sane
and we'll. During the attack, the
character voice and consciousness are
changed, the subject assuming a new
name and speaking of his natural self
in the third person. The new name
may, in Christian countries, be that
of a demon or spirit elsewhere it may
be that of a god, and the action and
speech are frequently blasphemous or
absurd. When the attack passes Off
the subject usually remembers moth
ing of it, He may manifest during it
a tendency to fOrtell the future, to
reveal facts at distance, profess to
understand foreign languages, some
times speak them, and prescribe for
diseases. The affection may be de-
veloped by the example of others SIM
ilarly possessed. In all these respects
it resembles the mediumship which is
so common at the present day

facilitating 'demoniacal possession

of the tom-tits, their blue quilts all
filled with blood, were covered with
down. Fourteen little ones, squalling,
tottering on their soft little feet, with
their beaks wide open right up to their
eyes, from morning till night never
ceased to await a beakful, to digest
it and then demand another. 1t was
during that first short period when the
little ones have no sense. But soon
there were disputes in the nest, which
began to give way under the efforts
of wings. The birds began to fall
over the edge, then make long eXcur-
sions along the walls of the box, and
halts near the entrance of the opening
in the side. by which air was adj
mitted. Then, finally, they ventured
outside.
The Cure of st. Philemon from a
neighboring field, assisted with great
pleasure at this garden-party. On
seeing the little ones appear under the
little board of the letter-boX, in twos
and threas, taking to wing, returning,
starting out again, like bees from a
hive, he said to himself, 'Childhood is
ended, and a good work accomplished; ;
they are all hatched.'
The next day, during that hour of
leisure, which followed dinner, he ap-
preached the box, with the key in his
hand, He raped at the box. No
reply. Il thought So he muttered
He opened the box, and, mixed with
the debris of the nest, the letter fell
into his hand.

ing the writing, "a letter from the

is very anxious to get English speaking
subjects, as there is such a demand
for them in China.
In connection with strictly mission
airy congregations available to women
in the United States the principal ones
are:
Foreign Mission Sisters of st. Dom.
inic, OSsining, N. Y.
Servants of the Holy Ghost, Techny
Illinois.
Mission Sisters of Our Lady of
Africa, Lewis, Quebec, Can.
Sisters of the Immaculate Concep-
ton, Montreal, Can.
Mission Sisters for China, Almonte,
Ontario, Can.
To enter the converts at Montreal
and Quebec, a knowledge of French
would probably be necessary.

They thought his eyesight was fail
ing, and did not write.
The Cure of st. Philemon was glad.
For three weeks he did not pass the
encasement once, without thinking of
the rosy, speckled eggs which lay
there, so near, and when the twenty
second day had come, he bent down,
listened at the opening, and said,
radiantly, There is chirping, PhilO-
meme, there is chirping; there must
be life, and l am far from regrett:ng
what | have done
Old as he was, there were still
corners in his heart which held feel
ings that would always be young.
About the same time, in the green
room of the Bishops Palace, the
Bishop was celebrating upon the
nominations to be made, with his
councillors, his two vicars-general, the
dean of the Cathedral, the general
secretary, and the director of the
Grand Seminary. After providing for
several posts of curates and parish
priests, he expressed himself thus

Philemon. He will not accept it.
doubtless, and his modesty, no less
than his age, will be the cause But
we shall have rendered homage, which
is certainly due from us, to his
virtue"
The five councillors were unanimous
in their approval, and that evening a
letter left the Bishops palace, signed
/ by the Bishop and carrying post
script: ANSWER Immediately, my dear
Father, or else come and see me, be-
cause l am obliged to make my pro
posal within three days to the admins
tration."
The letter reached ST. Philemon the
very day of the Matching of the tom
tits: with great difficulty on the part
of the postman, it was slipped into the
opening of the post box, disappeared
and remained at the bottom of the
nest, like white pavement on the
floor of dark room.

and we have struggle to maintain it.
When the Cure had helped to unhar-
ness Robin, and had given him some
oats, and had then changed his own
soutane and emptied his valise, in
which he had brought back numerous
parcels from the city, it was just the
hour when the birds are rehearsing
the days events in the tree-tops.
There had been a rain-storm, drops
still fell from the leaves as they were
stirred by birds seeking a place for
the night.
On recognizing their master and
friend coming down the gravel path,
they flew down and fluttered about
him with unusual noise, and the tom
tits of the nest, the fourteen, still
poorly fledged attempted their first
spirals around the pear-trees, and their
first open-air concert.
The Cure of st. Philemon looked
at them with a paternal eye, but also
with a melancholy tenderness, as one
regards those who have cost them
dear.
MY little Ones" said he, without
me you would not be here, and with
out you l should have been Cure of
Canton. But l regret nothing; no, do
not insist, your gratitude is very
noisy"
He clapped his hands impatiently.
TO be sure, he had never been am
bilious; even at that very moment he
was truthful. Yet the next day, after
sleepless night talking with Philo-
meme, he said:
Next year, Philomene, if the TOM
tit returns, you warn me. 1t is GER
tainly annoying"
But the tom-tit never returned, and
neither did the big letter, stamped
with the coat of arms of the Bishop.
