Necessities, not luxuries, are the
fundamentals of health, happiness
and prosperity.
The important necessities of life
are the simple foods which best nour-
ish our bodies. These foods have
their origin-not in the factories
which line our city streets but they
are the products of the earth.
The man then who through
long hours and hard labor wrests
these products from the soil should
be given, the greatest encouragement
of any Individual in our whole social
scheme. This encouragement lies in
willingness to pay the farmer more

literally for his toll and to purchase
freely and use wisely, the fruits of
his labor.
There are two foods for which
the farmer is directly responsible,
which no other foods can approx
mate in value from the standpoint of
nutrition. They are bread, made
with milk, and butter. These foods
contain every element necessary to
sustain human life.
In the modern loaf of bread
which has been properly made, milk
plays the important role of supply
ing certain mineral salts that con-
tain the vitamines in which white
flour is deficient. The vitamines,
scientists tell US, are necessary in
the production Of growth in the hui
man being.

PAROCH|AL SCHOOLS
ASSEMRu YMAN SLACER SEEKS TO
SUPPRESS CATHOLIC SCHOOLS
IN NEW YORK STATE,

A measure designed to suppress
private and parochial schools in the
state Of New York was introduced in
the legislature at Albany Thursday
last week by ,Assemblyman John w:
Slacer, Of Buffalo. The bill provides
for an amendment to Section 1, Ar
ticle 8, Of the State Constitution, re-
lating to education Of children. If
the amendment is adopted, the consti-
tuition, which now says that the Leg
islature shall provide for the mainte-
nance and support of a system of
free common schools, wherein all the
children of this state may be edu-
Gated" would provide that all the
children shall be educated in the pub
lie schools.
Assemblyman Slacer's measure is
undoubtedly aimed at the Catholic
parOChial schools, and indicates to
what extent religious intolerance has
been revived in that state In intro
dUcing his bill, Mr.. Slacer declared
that the solution of the disturbed
conditions, with respect to the attacks
made upon our American institutions
is proper education. thereby stamping
out sedition and radicalism,' intimat
ing that parochial schools are foment-
ing seditiOn and radicalism.

Conversion OF SCOTLAND

A college professor, speaking before
the Glasgow University Students
sodality recently, expressed his belief
that Scotland would return to the
Catholic Church en- masse in time, for
the people are self-conscious, self-cen-
tered and well organized, notes a
writer. Catholics are tolerated and
there is less opposition 1t present
to concerted action on their part than
there would have been in the past.
The bringing of the Catholic schools
into the national educational system
was, he said, a great step forward.
Prudence, care and tact, mixed with
bold measures, should be the program
of the present.
When we remember that Scotland
was made thoroughly Protestant in
the short space of fourteen years, a
change that has puzzled historians
ever since, we feel inclined to agree

With the leasing Of Libby Castle

permanent Choir School of ihe Cath.
Ollie Church in America. Overlooking
the Hudson, the new home Of the
school is an ideal spot for the fifty
boys who live there under the care Of
Father Finn, Father McGrath and
Father Mention.
The Paulist Fathers have long been
leaders in religious music. AS early
as the sixties, though with great op-
position, the use of the Gregorian
chant was started under Father
Young, the author of the we'll known
"Catholic Hymnal" Sir Edmund Hur-
Icy, who succeeded Father Young, was
knighted by the Pope for his work in
church music. With the advent last
June of Very Rev. Thomas f. Burke,
as Superintendent Of the PauliSt
Fathers, decision was made to put
singing on a more stable and broad

let is enhanced by the ''Imprimatur'

Your account of the work accom-
