CHICAGO SCHOOLS
PAROCHIAL ELEM E Mt AIRY
SCHOOLS OF CITY ARE TO BE
STANDARDIZED MORE THAN
10000 PAROCHIAL PUPILS.
(By N. C. w. c.. News Service.)

(By N. C. w. c.. News Service.)
Standardization of the parochial ele-
mentary schools of Chicago with their
more than 100000 pupils is to be eff
fected this year through the work of
trained inspectors working in conjunc-
ton with and under the direction of
the diocesan board of education and
aided by an advisory committee of
practical educators selected, one each,
from the forty-six educational com
munities of the archdiocese.
This supervision of the schools with
in the parishes is the latest step of
Archbishop Mundelein to bring the
Catholic elementary institutions up
to the highest level in scholarship and
to so perfect the system that all
these schools, of which there are sew
eral hundred conducted by Sisters and
Brothers of many communities, will
reach similar standard and course of
work
The Reverend James J. Jennings is
chairman of the board, with the Rev
L
saith, Henry P. Coughlin and David
Mcdonald as associates. The. board
was able to prepare standard courses
of studies and unity the textbooks and.
so far as plans were concerned, put
all the schools on a similar level.
They were not able, however, to in
spect and supervise the carrying out
of these plans.
The Archbishop selected two priests,
| the Rev. John Ford and the Rev.
Father Kozlowski, for supervision
work and sent them to the Catholic
University in Washington for training
| A headquarters for the board of edu
cation and the inspectors has been
opened in offices in the business dis
trict and from these the inspectors
will work. and to these also will come
reports and statistics of the many
schools which heretofore have kept
Their own records separately.

the benefit of St Agnes Church. The
affair was under the direction Of a
committee in charge of Mrs. Kinkle
who has done much for the welfare of
this pretty little church. A notable
part of this affair was the generosity
Of the nOn-Catholics in this town. A
chicken dinner was served to large
number of guests and the greater part
of the provisions for the dinner was
donated by non-Catholics. When il
was seen that the supplies were not
sufficient to serve the large crowd a
number of persons, including non
Catholics, handed the cashier dollar
although the charge was only fifty
cents, and these persons received
nothing for their money. 1t was 6

school, which is to be under the di-

is one of the most beautiful in the

Thursday, September 2, Right Rev. j..
Lemieux presiding. Rev. J. j. Melon
aid read a very interesting paper on
frequent Communion in country
churches. In his paper he wrote that
mama was the most natural of all
| food and he contrasted it with the
supernatural food that Christ gave.
Father Harrington, who is great
theologian and especially strong on
the natural law, denied that mamma
was natural food at all. However,
the reader of the paper, who is a
powerful logician, seemed to have the
better of the argument.
BaIta: The new church in this
place is now finished. 1t is a great
triumph to build such a beautiful
church on this far away prairie. And
Bishop O'Reilly's tribute to Father
Philip and the faithful who aided him
in face of such opposition was well
deserved

SOME EDITORS ARE
 BEGINNING TO SEE LIGHT

Some of the editors of city daily papers have a vision and are begin ming to write sensibly about the food situation. They are devoting less space to the kind of drink they can get and more to the food situation.
 "The public has been willing to pay the shoe bill and the clothing bill, but has been kicking on the food bill. The public has been will ing to play the goat for everyone but the farmer. The farmers em- ploy no publicity men to keep the daily papers full of copy concerning the reasons for the high price of food as is done by manufacturers. Therefore, the city people never hear the farmers side.
 The farmers are organizing and will no doubt soon employ educa- tional publicity men and see to it that town and city people hear the farmers side of she high cost of liv- ing. Furthermore, farmers are sub scribing for daily papers and will stand by and encourage their friends among the daily papers.-Progres- sive Farmer.

TWO GOLDEN DAYS
By Robert J. Burdette

By Robert J. Burdette
 There are two days of the week upon which and about which I never worry. Two care-free days, kept sacredly free from fear and appre- hension.
 One of these days is yesterday Yesterday with all it's cares and frets with all it's pains and aches, all it's faults, it's mistakes and blunders, has passed forever beyond the reach of my recall. cannot unsay a word that 1 said yesterday. All that it holds of my life, of wrongs, regret and sorrow, is honey out of the rock and sweet waters out of Che desert |-the Love that can make the wrong things right, that can turn weeping into laughter, that can give beauty the spirit of heaviness, joy for ashes, for ashes, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, joy of the morning for the woe of the night. Save for the beautiful memories, sweet and tender, that finger like | perfume of the rose in the heart of the day that is gone, I have nothing Co do with yesterday. It was mine it is Gods.
 And the other day do not worry about is tomorrow. Tomorrow with all it's possible adversities, its bur dens, it's perils, its large promise and poor performance, it's failures and mistakes, is as far beyond the reach of my mastery as it's dead sister, yesterday. It is day of Gods. Its sun will rise iA roseate splendor, or behind mask of weep ing clouds. But it will rise. Until then, the same love and patience that hold yesterday and hold to- morrow shine with tender promise into the heart of today. have no possession in that unborn day of grace. All else is in the safe keep

THINGS THAT BRING SUCCESS

Having a definite plan and stick ing to it through thick and thin.
 Never leaving any job or part of job until you are satisfied that it is the best that you can do. Keeping your eye on the ball all the time-not minding what is go- ing on in the gallery or along the side lines.
 Smiling and working though, though great deal of time you feel like doing just the opposite.
 Saving definite portion of all that you earn.
 Doing all that you are able to en- courage and build success and hap piness for other people. Paying no attention to the lapse of time-thinking only of the result, though it may take the years.
 Being stout and unmoved in the face of repeated failure, knowing that success is made up of failures tied to victories.
 Loving life for what you are able to bring out of yourself for the ben eft of the world. Knowing folks we'll enough to be able to make their efforts a part of yours, because of the immense val ue of mutual understanding. Taking an interest in every for. ward movement or plan, or idea. Thinking more than talking. Learning to decide quickly and i intelligently.
 Sticking to your friends, though

ing of the Infinite Love that holds for me the treasure of yesterday. The Love that is higher than the stars, wider than the skies, deeper than the seas. Tomorrow It Is Gods day. It will be mine.
 There is left for myself, then, but one day of the week-today. Any man can fight the battles of today. Any woman can carry the burdens of just one day. A man can resist the temptations of today. o friend, it is only when the burdens and cares of today carefully measured out to us by the Infinite Wisdom and Might that gives with them the promise "As thy day, so shall thy strength be-" we wilfully add the burdens of those two awful eterni- ties-yesterday and tomorrow-such burdens as only the mighty God can sustain-that we break down. It isn't the experience of today that drives men mad. It is remorse for something <hat' happened yesterday, the dread of what tomorrow may disclose.
 These are Gods days. Leave them with Him.
 Therefore, l think and I do, and l journey but one day at a time. That is the easy day. That is the mans day. Nay, rather, that is our day Gods and mine. And while faith fully and dutifully I run my course, and work my appointed task on that day of ours, God the Almighty and AL loving takes care of VeSterdaV and tomorrow.

WEIGHT REDUCTION

Pm trying to reduce my weight, Pm eating many things l hate, at- tempting to grow thin; by following the diet game I hope to shrink my ample frame, and lose my double chin. I've cut out bread, and but ter, too, and all things sweet, and liquid glue, and milk and clotted cream; and while hope to lose a ton, the stunt I'm doing is no fun, existence Is a scream. Oh, others seek the grooming board, and whack off victuals with sword, and eat whate'er they please; and they may fill themselves with jam, indulge in gravy pie, and ham, and forty kinds of cheese.
