After a lapse of more than one thou

with German memories, has been turn

special arrangement of the Pope, who
has given to the SalvatOrian vista
tors respective authority.
Built in chariemagne's Time.
The origin of the Church of Saints
Michael and Magnus dates back to the
time of Charlemagne, who during his
visit to Rome secured extensive
grounds with the intention of erecting
a German institute which would be
supported from the revenues of the
properties.
The .Frisians, who had populous
colony in Rome as early as 799, as
proved by the fact that in that year,
in company with the Franks, Saxons
and Langobards. they greeted Pope

CATHOLIC WOMAN MADE PEACE
JUSTICE IN ESSEX, ENGLAND.

CBy N. c. w. C. News Service.)
Among the women who have been
appointed to the Bench, since the law
came into effect in England which
qualities women for certain offices on
an equality with men, is Lady Caroline
Petre, of Ingatestone Hall, who has
been sworn in as Justice of the
Peace for the county of Essex.
The Petres are one of the old Catho-
lie families of England. The fourth
Baron Petre died in the Tower of Lon
don in 1858, where he had been in
carcerated as one of the victims of the
Infamous Titus Oates Plot. The thir-
teenth Baron was a priest and a
domestic prelate to Pope Leo XIII.
The present head of the family is
the young Lord Petre, born in 1914,
whose father, the 10th Baron, was kill
ed in action in France when the pres
ent peer was only one year old. One
of the young Lord Petre's great-aunts
is Superior of the Sisters of Charity at
Westminster, and another is member
of the Good Shepherd community at

SEVENTH CENTENARY OF "A.
NOUS ORDERS ESTABLISH.
MENT IN BRITAIN.

The seven hundredth anniversary of
the landing of the first representa-
tives of the Franciscan Order in Eng
land is among the centenaries which
fall within the present year. The an
niversary is that of an Order which
was famous in England in the old
days.
The coming to England OF the Fran
ciscans was one of the import ant
moves in the early history of the ia
nous Order founded by st. Francis
of Assist. The first Corners were mes
sengers sent by the Saint in 1919.
They were Angelo OF Pisa and eight
others, and they landed at Dover in
1920.
The newcomers established their
first convent at Canterbury Very
soon after this another was formed
at Northampton. From the seed sown
the Order grew on English soil until
it became historic part of the re-
ligious. life in England.
The present year also marks an
other anniversary in Franciscan his
tory. One of the memorable events
in the life of st. Francis was his
toric visit which he paid to the Holy
Land. 1t was In the year 1920 that
he presented himself before the Sui
tan of Egypt, and tried to convert
him.

of the Basilica of St. Peter by the
Saracens who were finally driven off
by the Emperor's army. The Chris
tian troops slain were buried in a
crypt in the old Neronian Villa and
this spot, with the consent of the En-
peror, was chosen for the erection of
the church. The church is the parish
church of the Vatican chapter and the
parish-priest is the vicar-curate of ST.
Peters.
German Nuns Given Historic House.
The venerable German national in
stitution, the Camp Santo Teutonico,
which for many centuries has resisted
calamities, is near by. The priests
house, St.Michael at Lungo Tevere
Farnesiana, which is situated near the
Tiber, in the neighborhood of the ia
nous Farnesiana, and which contains
immortal masterpieces of Raphael and
Giulio Romano, has been given to the
German Franciscan Tertiary Nuns of
Waldbreitbach Kreis, Neuweid am
Rheim.
The house is joined to the nearby
church of the Franciscan Conventuals
by special sacristy. Plans are being
made to quarter there such Catholics
as the buildings can accommodate. AS
there is an increasing demand for Ger
man nurses and maid servants in
Rome it promises to be crowded to
capacity. The pilgrims who have re-
turned to Germany comment OH the
friendliness and hospitality of the
Romans and Italians, but complain of
the depression of their currency which
necessitates practicing the strictcst
economy.
The German Benedictines, who re-
quested the return of the Dormitio
Mariae in Jerusalem, have had that
edifice restored to them and the Bel
gian Benedictines have already left
the abbey.

Westminster is the heart of the
British Empire, and in the heart of
Westminster lies the still uncorrupt
body of the last of the Saxon Kings,
Saint Edward the Confessor, founder
of the historic Abbey of Westminster.
1t is said that some years ago the tomb
of the Confessor was opened, and
within was seen the body of the Saint

centuries ago, it was laid to rest be-

On the festival of st. Edward, which

Olics to visit the shrine to offer their
prayers. Westminster Abbey is now a
Protestant place of worship, and on
that account there is no organized act
of Catholic worship. But all day long
crowds of the faithful, priests and
nuns, men and women are kneeling all
around the shrine, their rosaries in
their hands.

TERENCE MacSWINEY
written for The Catholic Bulletin by
Mary A. Bishop.)

Cease your chatter, hold your breath,
We are in the hall of death
Whence, but late, Soul hath fled;
Lo! the body lieth-dead.
This was he, who yesterday
Dared to hold sweet life away;
Dared to enter, unafraid,
Through the portal death hath made
Dared it-rather than lay down,
At the beck of England's crown,
Honor, country, home and life,
Just to save one human life.
Lest life, SO saved, were lost .
Did MacSwiney count the cost?
Aye, and held it low, if he
So might pay for liberty!
Young and brave, with life-blood red
Thrilling through his veins; his head,
Proudly poised, his eyes quick fire
Eager for his hearts desire
All! to see him lying low,
White and wasted! Is it so
Ireland's freedom must be won.
And her old place in the SUM-"
Who will answer; there may be
Other paths to victory;
But for Irish feet the road
Seemeth marked by tears and blood.
Short the time to question how,
Ireland must be saved-and now.
Give as he gave, your all, heart
whole,
God will stand beside your soul.

in that city on October 26, with Car

Caution in Buying Seeds

The Wisconsin Farmer says: Ex-
IRENE caution is advisable by Wiscon-
sin farmers when they consider the
purchase of field seed from firms resi-
dent outside the state, unless said firms
are absolutely reliable and endorsed by
the state seed inspection service, state
department of agriculture. Farmers
are cautioned against buying ''unsight
and unseen from out-of-state firms
that offer tempting prices on clover and
grass seed to be sown in 1920. Knock
down prices usually bear inspection.
They are suspicious. 1t costs money to
carefully grade and inspect field seeds
according to legal standards, and only
those firms which spend money to put
their seeds out in worthy manner
should receive patronage. The reason
we especially mention the nonresident
firms is because such houses are not
bound closely to the regulations of the
state seed inspection law as are the
Wisconsin seed houses and growers.
Interstate shipments require federal
supervision and cannot be dealt with so
effectively by Wisconsin authorities.

The COLLINS VIII Get You

Little Jack is five and his sister is
two years older. Their mother is a
nervous woman who wastes a great
deal of energy on society and various
clubs. She has but little patience with
her children, and little appreciation
that the training of child should be-
gin shortly after birth.
This nervous mother has found that
the easiest way to control her children
is to brighten them. She tells little
Jack and Mary that the doctor will
come and cut off their ears; that the
grizzley bear will catch them after dark
and carry them away; that the DOGGY
man will come out of the closet and
get them if they don't go TO sleep.
Then, when little Jack or Mary is
taken sick the doctor has a most diff
cult task to make thorough examina-
ton of the frightened, screaming
child. He attempts to look into the
child's throat and the youngster fights
and struggles until he is almost ex-
hausted. The fear of the doctor will
stay with the child for a number of
years, and in later life he will carry
the effects oIathis horrible fear.
The deepempressions being made
on the tender nervous system of these
youngsters are the impressions of fear.
The greatest suffering these children
undergo is not from physical punish
ment, because the mother does not be-
lieve that children should be punished
Their suffering is real mental anguish
more harmful and more lasting than
physical punishment.
1t would be we'll if, in some way, pros
pective mothers could attend school
where they might receive proper in
struction regarding the care and train
ing of the child, because education for
motherhood and homemaking is no less
important than reading, writing and
arithmetic.

versity extension division offers a cor
