In the place of these expelled pre-

FAMlSHED BATTALION SAVED BY

UNIQUE RANSPORTATION SYS-

MENT UNTIL RELIEVED.

How WheelbarroWS were cOmman-
deered from ruined barns in the she'll
riddled town of Xammes to bring food
to a famished battalion holding the
lines on the ST. Mihiel sector has been
recounted by Edward j. Mention of
Boone, Ia, who resorted to the unique
method of fetching ''chow" to the SOL
diers during the engagement on Sep
tember Is, 1918. Mr.. Mention, who
was with the Knights of Columbus
and attached to the Thirty-seventh Di-
vision (Ohio National Guard troops),
divulged the war story, which is
somewhat analogous to the plight Of
the famous Lost Battalion" of the
Seventy-seventh Division, trapped in
a ravine in the Argonne Forest for
five days when they could not make
a liaison with the troops on either
side of their advanced position.
Mention had gone into Xammes,
which is located on the st. Mihiel
front, while the bombardment was at
it's height. He took refuge in cor
rugated iron dugout and brought his
supplies of chocolate and bouillon
cubes, cigarettes, candy and crackers
into the shelter with him. Shells
broke around the town during the day
and that evening there was lull in
the incessant racket, which meant
that the Yankees had pushed the Ger

GIVE 10000 POUNDS
CATHOLICS OF ENGLAND RE.
sPoND TO PoPE's APPEAL
FOR SUFFERING CHILDREN.

The amount of money collected in
England, in response to the Holy
Fathers appeal on behalf of the suf-
fering children, seems to be very sat
isfactory Complete returns are not
yet available, but up to the present, a
sum of more than $4,000 pounds ($300,-
000) has been subscribed, the whole of
which will be transmitted to the Cen
trail Committee which has it's head
quarters in Switzerland.
AS a typical example of the gen.
erous response which was made to
the Popes appeal by the Catholics,
the parish of St. Dominic at Haver-
stock Hill in London may be cited.
This parish is a large one, but it is
poor and the parishioners are mostly
of the laboring classes. The largest
sum ever known, to have been raised
in this parish in a single collection
is 40 pounds. Yet in answer to the
Popes appeal sum of 120 pounds
was raised at the Sunday services.

ROMAN STUDENTS
THEY ARE EXAMINED BY POPE
EACH YOUNG MAN is
GIVEN PRIZE.

On a recent Sunday, following the
custom of the past five years, the
Bishop of Rome gathered the students
of the Roman Seminary into his pri-
vate oratory, celebrated Mass and ad-
ministered to them Holy Communion
Now" said the Holy Father to the
youths, concluding a little address to
the body after they had taken coffee,
1--WE shall hold the examination in the
Gospel of st. John in the garden at
2:30 tomorrow" This was to be the
examination in the task which His
Holiness set to the students of his
own special diocese when they were
leaving Rome on vacation last sum-
mer Needless to say, the task was
well done, for the examiner was to
be the Vicar of Christ himself.
Seated under the palm trees, with
the Superiors and the students around
him, and number of prelates stand
ing by in attendance, His Holiness
closely questioned each youth in his
turn. Every one had to faithfully re-
peat by heart part of st. Johns Cos
pei and then give an explanation Of
it. With the utmost gentleness the
august examiner corrected any error.
At the end Of two hours, the work
terminated, the Holy Father declar-
ing himself well pleased with the re-
suits and calling for the little box,
which one of his attendants carried,
he handed six pretty gold watches to
the six students who had received the
highest marks. To nineteen others he
gave lesser prizes. Then, chatting
affably to the young men, the Pope
walked to the entrance of the gardens
and bade them an affectionate good
bye. ~

DIED IN SH|PWRECK
SEVENTEEN PRIESTS LOST WITH
VICAR APOSTOLIC.

When the "Afrique" was wrecked
near Rocheford on the coast of
France, there -perished the Vicar
Apss-. ,oii.c o. Seaegambia and seven
teen other members of the Fathers Of
the Holy Ghost. They were off to
their various posts in the African Mis-
sions, after having served in the
Great War The loss of the devoted
Mgr. Jalabert, the Vicar Apostolic, is
particularly regretted.
The question of the Missions is to-
day an acute one, the war having
made great change in the affairs of
so many peoples and having raised
such antipathy among the Allied Gov
ernments to the work Of the Germans.
Three of the priests who perished OBJ
tanned exceptional distinctions from
the French Government for heroic
service.

FEEDING THE FIGHTERS

mans out of the sector. When Mr.,
Mention came outside he found that
the town had been evacuated and he
was the only living being in it. Some
of the buildings were afire and there
was no possible means of reaching
the advance lines by wagon or auto
mobile about a mile ahead.
Used Rickety WheeIbarrows.
While he was ponderng the sub
ject of transportation courier came
into the town from the 146th Infantry
with mud-stained note scrawled by
an officer of the regiment 1t said
For Gods sake send us something
to eat. Anything will do. We have
not been relieved by supporting
battalion. Men are holding fast to
their position and fighting like devils.
Send anything"
Mention sent the courier back for
some extra men and set about to boil
ing soup and chocolate in utensils
which had been the property of the
peasant folks of Xammes. When the
detail arrived he had several cans of
the precious food ready, but the prob
lem was how to transport it to the
front lines. All hands searched the
ruined buildings and came upon four
rickety wheelbarrows which were part
of the equipment of a French farmer.
With the wheelbarrows transporta
ton system was started and the men
of the battalion were fed They held
the line that night and about dawn the
supporting troops who had been held
up on a road outside of the town by
the intense bombardment relieved the
battalion.

TO ORGANIZE WOMEN

to be expected that problems of inter-
est to Catholic women, with which
they are more directly concerned, will
come up for general discussion.
Such organization as is established
will probably consist of an advisory
council which will serve as a clearing
house for diocesan activities and the
work of the individual organizations.
The Catholic Welfare Council will
serve this purpose and at the same
time supply information and be ready
at all times to suggest how certain
work may be carried on.
No Interference With Existing Or
ganzations.
1t is not proposed to encroach in
any way upon the freedom and initia-
tive of the individual organizations.
nor will the central advisory council
attempt to direct their efforts. Dio-
cesar activities are not to be inter
fered with in any way. 1t is the policy
OF the Welfare Council rather to
strengthen the present system of
Catholic lay organizations than to
superimpose upon it another more CEN
tralized system; and, as has been the
case with the National Catholic War
Council, its chief strength will lie in
the strength of existing organizations.
The same policy will be followed
with reference to the Catholic Lay
mems activities and the Catholic char
liable organizations, a conference of
which will be held in September.

ST. PAUL PRIEST WRITES OF CUL-
TURE AND CHARITY IN WAR;
STRIC KEN LAND - PEOPLE
THOROUGHLY IMBUED WITH
IDEA OF RELIGION-UNSP
BY MODERN ARTIFIcIALITY.

Rev. Joseph A. Schabert, formerly
professor in st. Thomas College, this
city, is at present taking a post
graduate course in Fribourg, Switzer-
land. Father Schabert sends the fol-
lowing account of his impressions of
a Catholic city.
Catholic Munich.
Through the kindness-there was
no other sufficient reason-of the
German Consul at Bern, Switzerland,
the writer was permitted to spend a
few weeks travelling in Germany.
While on his way from Lindau to
Munich, he CHANGED to hear a signif-
icant remark made by an occupant of
the same compartment in the fast
train, from Lindau. The speaker was
a young Jewess who was conversing
with her companion about the pros
poets i of enjoying themselves in
Munich during the Christmas Holi-
days. In answer to some suggestion
he made, she stated that lively time
could not be had in Munich at this
season, 'for Munich is Catholic and
Christmas is strictly observed and
solemnly celebrated there"
On hearing this the writer resolved
to find out whether there was
anything distinctive about Munich
whether it's Catholicity was manifest
in the city itself as well as known to
strangers. For there seemed here to
be possibility of obtaining concrete
evidence that would either confirm OF
deny the opinion-so general in recent
years the Catholic religion is q
hindrance to progress, culture, and
we'll l-being. Even many Catholics are
inclined to believe. that their religion

as Catholic.
In the first place, the city itself

massive stone, it is monument of
Catholic genius, a block of granite
into whose cold substance has been
chiseled the warm spirit of Catholic
culture. Its public buildings, castles,
art galleries, libraries, museums, and
theaters are the works of masters of
architecture. It's triumphal arches
and magnificent national monuments

waters of the Isar, are splendid
bridges of solid masonry dedicated

all the nations. In the Deutsche

GERMAN BISHOPS
ASSEMBLY HELD IN FULDA LAST
MONTH.

During the last week of January
the Bishops of Germany met in special
conference at Fulda, to consider vari-
Gus pressing matters that have arisen
in regard to Catholic affairs in the
entire empire. The conference had
no political significance. But from the
trend of current events it is known
that the bishops view the school sit
uation with certain amount of seri-
BUSINESS, and are determined to safe
guard the rights of religious educa-
tion, which are threatened by the
action Of the government.

Wider Needs.

And as yet we have said nothing
of distant and outlying portions in the
field of Catholic endeavor. Consider
for moment the poor country parish
with a widely scattered population
that can scarcely exc out its own sus-
tenance and yet needs religious care
even more than others. Consider the
war-swept sections of Europe whose
churches are razed to the ground, and
whose inhabitants are left in utter des-
titution. Consider the foreign mis-
sions in pagan or semi-pagan lands
where little or no help can be -ex-
pected from natives, and where the
wealth of the Methodists and Baptists
is lavished with bountiful hand to at
tract the savage and the pagan into
their own folds and even to pervert
those who are already under Catholic
influence. Now all these works are
indispensable to the well-being of the
Church, and withal depend for their
existence on the people in our normal
city parishes. If justice binds us to
support our own parish, we are Obli-,
gated by charity to come to the as
sistance of those who have no means
of their own.
Such then are the needs of the
Church; such the nature of our obli-
cation to respond to her needs. There
is absolutely no other source of reve-
nue.. The State has certain other
means at it's disposal; the Church has
no other than the donations of the
faithful. How absurd then seems the
| criticism of those ill-instructed Cath
olics who complain that they are
scandalized at the frequent call from
the pulpit upon their pocket-books!
They realize neither the great designs
of our religion nor the right she has
to require their cooperation.
| Now it must indeed Ibe admitted
that the response of the great body
of American Catholics to the cause
of our Faith is greater than is to be
found elsewhere. 1t appears that dur
ing the last year, in spite of prevail
| ing financial embarrassments, nearly
two hundred Catholic churches were
erected in this country. This is a
straw that indicates the devotedness
of our people generally. y5.
