CONF SSlON.


The Rev. Shaw, professor of Prot
estant theology at Taylor University,
writes in The st. Thomas Journal: I
was for three weeks in great Ameri.
can concentration camp. to assist SOL
diers who had been in France at the
height of the battle, and they have as
srred me that the two things they
craved most, before entering into the
ARRAY, were the one to go to Confess
sion and the other to receive Commun-
ion. And why did thousands Of Prot
estant soldiers join the Catholics in
hearing Mass? Why did they seek with
such yearning the Catholic confession
al? Because they wished to purify
their souls of the stains of sin; be-
cause it was the only way to rid them
selves of the anguishing thought, to
die in Gods disgrace!' and they wished
to die with Jesus Christ on their lips
and in their hearts!" 1--WE cannot help
acknowledging" concludes the Protes-
ant divine, that Confession imposes
itself. For over a century we have re-
fused to confess our sins, but we must
90 back and confess that since the hor-
ror Of this war the souls hunger and
thirst after Jesus Christ 's'

FATHER lE~ GORE
AGED MISSION PRIEST QUITS
LABoRs FoRTxTWo@ YEARS IN
WILDERNESS AMONG NORTH
,ERN lNDiANs-coMEs BACK TO
DIE q .-, g.

Father August LIE Core labored
for forty-two years as a missionary
among the Indians at Hudson Bay
company posts on the Mackenzie
River. Full of years and honors, he
went back to France to spend the re-
mainder of his days. But the old pio-
neer found himself an alien in civili-
cation. The frontier was in his blood.
The wilderness called him.
A fragile, almost diaphanous wisp
Of a man in priestly garb, snow white
of hair, totally blind, stepped off the
fast train at Edmonton, Canada.
AS he stood leaning on his cane, a
smile made his face radiant. Clergy
men and Sisters of his Church sur
rounded him, embraced him and well
coined him with demonstrations Of
affection. Father LIE Core, now "A
years old, had come home to die So
he was happy.
He will live his allotted span in
clustered peace at the home of the
Oblate Order at Worthwhile North Of
Edmonton. Regular reports will be
made to him of missionary progress
at the old fur posts that were the
scenes Of his early labors. There in
time his dream will come true and his
life will end near the frontier among
his old friends.
When Father LIE Core began his
missionary work on the Mackenzie,
the Hudson Bay company was para
mount lord of virtually all Western
Canada under it's charter granted by
King Charles II in 1910. He was in
the north when in 1870 the company
surrendered to Canada the domain it
had ruled for more than two centuries.
OF all it's vast possessions, it retained
only one-twentieth of the land in ''the
fertile belt between the North
Saskatchewan and the international
boundary and the Rocky Mountains
and Lake Of the Woods and Lake
Winnipeg. A..
Now Father LIE Core returns to
find the old company is closing out to
farm settlers it's last remaining lands.
Dotted through Manitoba, Saskatche-
wan and Alberta this land, though
surrounded by farms, has been left
untouched by the plow since the days
of the company's wilderness empire.
Though still the worlds greatest fur
trader, the company has applied it's
energies more and more on it's chain
of department stores that extends
perials glories that Father LIE Core
knew in his youth have departed. The
yardstick has supplanted the scepter:

THE SITUATION Is ACUTE IN THE
BELGIAN CONGO.

The war seems to be having its after
math. and troubles incident to it are
not ended for the mission.
The expected expulsion of the Ger
man priests from China has already
been reported. A similar condition eX-
lists in Africa according to Bishop Cab
ricl Grison, of Stanley Falls, in the
Hclgian Congo He writes:
The Government has decided on
the expulsion of the German mission
aries in my vicariGte, and the loss of
them will be a hard blow for the mis-
sion, as many of the French priests
were recalled by the war, and the Bel
gian seminaries, being without stu
dents, send us no new priests. In 1914,
the district had thirty-seven active
workers. We are now only sixteen
priests, some Of whom are aged and
nearly worn out by their long stay in
this unhealthfuls climate. Some of the
chaplains will return, now that war is
ended, but even; so, | shall be obliged
to suppress three posts, which were
giving great promise.
The situation here is therefore
acute, and recommend our mission to

BUDDHA'S TOOTH.

On the outskirts OF the beautiful
lake of Handy. there is a Buddhist
shrine, which is supposed to contain
the tooth of Buddha. 1t is situated in
q conspicuous place and is surrounded
hy a fine balustrade, which gives it
externally an attractive appearance.
The legendary stories connected
with the tooth of Buddha render this
temple an object of curiosity to the
casual visitor and the attention of the
traveller is invariably drawn towards
it. The interior of the temple is full
OF carvings and paintings, remarkable
only for their monstrosity and gro
fesoueness, The supposed tooth rests
on a lotus flower of pure gold, richly
inlaid with precious stones and rubies.
AebeIf-sfaped vessel, festooned with
golden chains and encrusted with jew
els. encloses the tooth. The vessel
and the tooth rest on massive silver
table, strongly barricaded by iron bars
Those privileged to see it, declare it to
be a piece of discolored ivory, about
two inches long and one inch in diam
eter.
Christians of India are quite certain
that the tooth is not Buddha's as the
original article was formally destroyed
in the year 1860. A medal was struck
to commemorate the event.

METHODIST ORGAN LAUDS
ST. lGNATIUS.

The Following eulogy of st. Igna
thus Boyola and of his order has ap-
peared in the Pittsburgh Methodist
Christian Advocate:
''ttSsis true that Protestant Britain
gave tis%a Macaulay and a David Liv-
ingstone, that our own country has
sent forth a Thorburn, a Bashford and
a Headland to work nightly for the
Gospel. yet it was Catholic Spain that
gave birth TO the first real modern mis-
siOnary. This was lgnatius Loyola, a
man with a world vision.
1T was the Jesuit priest who first
broke down the barrier Of seclusion
in China and Japan, and gave to a
wonderful posterity its first authentic
news of these distant lands; it was
the Jesuit priest, in the days of French
dominion in the valleys of the st. Law
renee and Mississippi, who bore with
him the story of the Cross to the Indi-
ans. and who nurtured the sOul-life of
the hardy French settlers in Lower
Canada: it was the Jesuit missionary
who first planted education among his
fellow-men wherever the armies Of Eu-
rope planted the flag of conquest and
dominion.

NO FLOUR WITH WHICH TO MAKE
THE SACRED HOST IN AFRICA.

A hungry stomach has no ears, it is
said. and therefore we should not eX-
pect the poor people Of the Liberia
Free State, w. Africa, to adopt our
religion in satisfactory numbers until
we have fed them.
Very Rev. Oge, L. AT. NJ, has only
great misery to report from SasstoWn.
The influenza has visited us, of
course, but it did not claim so many
victims here as elsewhere, for the rea-
son that famine had already carried
away most of the population. The mis-
sion can distribute no more rations
of rice because it has no more. The
priests, moreover, cannot even give
Communion to the poor sufferers, who
have so much need Of spiritual sup
port, as they have no flour with which
TO make the Altar Bread. The Host
used at Mass is no larger than a pen
ny-piece, and the wine is doled out in
the same proportion. Soon we will not
have even these articles

EXTRACT FROM THE REPORT OF
MGR. STREIcHER, VICAR APOS-
TOLIC OF UGANDA.

"Our native clergy consists of three
and % clerics, either in minor orders
or with tonsure. Our Summaries, both
principal and preparatory, have been
kept up--God alone knows at the cost
Of what sacrifices. There are 50 stu
dents in philosophy and theology and
62 in Latin. The customary black cas-.
sock has been replaced by one of COM
mon white cotton; shoes and stockings
are things of the past; the second
plate of Sundays and holidays, meat
and all condiments except salt, have
disappeared from the table-but these
privations have injured nobody, nor
have discipline or the piety of the stu
dents or the serious business of study
been impaired in the slightest. "a
THE congregation of our native
nuns has superbly surmounted, up to
the present, the trials imposed upon
it by this war. There are $50 postu-
lants, 25 novices and u professed Sis
ters. The religious instruction of
more than 1000 Christian children
from 10 to Ia years of age, nearly
equal number of catechumens taught
to read, the preparation for baptism of
from 700 to 500 old people, their CO.
operation, most highly appreciated by
the missionaries, in the Christian edu-
cation of $500 young girls enrolled
at our Patronages-such is the record
of their labors, the result of the Won
derful zeal of these precious auxili-
aries"
