CATHOLICS IN SWITZERLAND
OLD cALvINIsTIc FEELING Is
DISAPPEARING - CATHOLICS
REPRESENTED IN. ALL HIGH Pc.
SlTIoNS OF STATE.

In the course of an interview with
a representative of the N. G. w. G..
News Service DR.. Ming declared that
indifferentism among the formerly
Protestant population of Switzerland
has for the present, at least, rebound.
ed to the advantage of the Catholics
"The old, tenacious. aggressive Cal.
tinism is fast disappearing, and in its
place is coming a spirit of indifference
regarding religion" said DR.. Ming
This situation is not perhaps good for
the future of the country, but at the
moment it is tending toward a liberal.
ization of laws and practices which
have for a long time hampered the
Catholic Church and wrought injustice
to Catholic citizens of the Swiss Con
federation.
Zone evidence of this change of view
toward the Church is the Swiss gov
ernment's authorization for a Papal
Nuncio ip Berne.
Another proof of the new attitude
of Professionalism better say, non
Catholicism Switzerland, is the agi
tation for the repeal of the Constitu
tional prohibition against the admis
sion of Jesuits to the country. AS a
matter of fact, there are many Jesuits
in Switzerland and they are enjoying
the same rights and protection that
are accorded to other clergy or lay.
men. The non-Catholic people have
convinced themselves that there is
nothing to be feared from Jesuits, but
on the contrary that they are very
loyal and useful citizens.
Catholics are taking a large and
productive part in social and indus
trial movements in Switzerland. They
have organized Catholic workmen's
syndicates, have co-operated with the
Christian Socialists in opposing ex
IRENE Socialists and Radicals, and are
furthering a program that only a
decade ago would have been regarded
as very advanced. They have been
brought into fine solidarity and in
consequence are making their infu
ence felt in social, economic and pc
litical affairs as never before.
1.-TWO of the seven members of the
Federal Council, which corresponds to
the American Presidents Cabinet, are
practical Catholics. A large number OF
Catholics are in the membership OF
the Federal Assembly. They are rep.
resented too in the executive branches
of the government and in the diplo
matte service"

MORE MAssAcREs
400 ARMENlANs coRALLED IN
CHURCH AND BURNED TO
DEATH.

tBy NJ. q. w. CT News Service.)
The massacre of Christians in Asia
Minor, by the rebels under the Turk
ish so-calIed Nationalist Mustapha Ke-
NAL, gives every sign Of reaching great
er and more grave proportions. Racial
distinctions appear to have nothing
Watever to do with the massacres, but
1T is striking that by far the greater
part of the Christians put to death are
Armenians.
The latest massacre, of which re-
liable reports have come in, Is stated
to have taken place at the village Of
Boil, In northwest Anatolia. Some
1000 Kurds, under the leadership Of
Mustapha Kemal's officers, made a
raid on the village and rounded up the
men and women The men were shot,
but the women and children were
driven into the village church which
was set on IRE, and all those inside
burned to death. The total number Of
those put to death IN this village Is
said to have been at least 400, though
the numbeg may have been !, m q Y high.

HOLLAND AND VATICAN
PROPOSAL FOR DELEGATION Te
ROME.

Proposals that Holland maintain
legation at the Vatican were made
by Jonkheer Van Karnebeek, foreign
minister, in presenting estimates of
his, department before parliament on
September %. He said reasons which
led to the establishment of a tenn
porary mission in Rome in 1915 were
no longer applicable, now that peace
has been restored. Abolition OF
Dutch representation at the Holy See
would, he declared, be undesirable in
the nations interest because the Vati-
can is becoming a more important
center for diplomatic communications
and information.

DON'T WHINE IN SICK ROOM
Remember to Carry Cheer, Not Sym pathy to Those Who Are Tenn
 porarily "Shut h."

Every one is called upon now and then to visit the sick room. Condi- tions surrounding the bedside visita- tions present wide variation. There is one rule that holds good under all conditions, and that is to carry cheer and sunshine-not long face, but a smile. If the patients are able talk to them of what is going on outside. Help them to forget themselves. A man who for over twenty years had been paralyZed, was visited by a friend who was profuse in expressing his sympathy and regret at the sick mans helplessness. As he was about to leave, the afflicted man said, Come again, won't you, but when you do please forget to tell me that you are sorry for me as every one tells me that. I've heard it every day for twenty years. Help me to forget it. Bring me a breath of the outside world"
 Flowers are always a gracious help fin making the sickroom a place of cheer. A book or a magazine also helps.-Thrift Magazine.
