FIRST WOMAN ENRoLLs IN X. c
SCHOOL.

New York, Jan. S.-William J. Nc
Ginley of New York, Supreme Secre.
tary of the Knights of Columbus, re-
turned to New York yesterday, after a
swing through the country to and from
San Francisco inspecting the work Of
the X. of G. chain of supplementary
schools being established for veterans
Of the war and civilians. He was pres
ent at the opening of the fiftieth X. of
c. school in San Francisco.
"The schools are now growing at
the rate of one a day." said Mr.. Nc
Ginley, so that by next summer we
should have between three or four
hundred schools in operation. Total
registration is now 100000.
"In San Francisco 1 was present
while one thousand students were be-
ing enrolled. The thousandth scholar
was Miss Monica Clary, formerly a
nurse at Base Hospital No. 80 at Royat,
France. She is the first woman scholar
to enroll in X. of C. school, and she
selected course in stenography and
typewriting to supplement her work
as domestic science specialist. The
Knights will welcome all other women
who saw service overseas or in this
country as auxiliaries to our fighting
forces"
The K-C school system supplies edu-
cation without charge in a variety Of
courses to all ex-service men, stress
ing technical courses. Experienced in
structors are engaged, and textbooks
supplied free. A nominal charge is
made to civilians. K-C schools are
now operating in New York, Chicago,
San Francisco, Boston, Buffalo, Pitts.

':He talks Of giving powers Of gov
ernment to the proposed parliaments
In Ireland and then proceeds to de-
clare that they shall have no power
over foreign affairs, no power over ma
val or military matters, no power over
the appointment of judges of the high
courts, or Of the postal service, no
power over the police for certain
number of years, and in addition re-
quires that Ireland should make gen.
erous grant of money to the imperial
exchequer. In other words, while pre-
tending to grant something to Ireland
he takes care to see that the burden
of taxation upon the people shall be
as heavy as ever, and that no actual
powers of government shall be left
to them. The whole theory of his pro.
posal is wrong. The people of Ireland
want their own country to govern in
their own way without asking one
foot Of territory outside of the shores
of Ireland, nor seeking to impose their
will upon one person beyond it's con-
fines. They ask only that which we
promised should be given to all peo-
pies when we laid down the terms up
on which peace was to be made; the
right to set up their own government
and to take their place among the free
nations.
''This latest effort of Lloyd George is
only the last English attempt to befog
the issue and to keep America from
realizing how vital is her interest in
the liberty of Ireland, and to attempt
again to satisfy the public opinion Of
the world without in any way lessening
the grip of the English governing class
upon Ireland. am satisfied that it
will fail in all those directions, be-
cause Americans are beginning to ex-
anime questions of foreign policy
much more closely than they ever did
before, and with their usual good judg-
ment they are not going to be put off
with false explanations, but will in
sist for the sake of both justice and the
interest of mankind that the Irish
question shall be once for all settled
to- the satisfaction of the DeODle of
Ireland, that they shall be permitted
to decide for themselves and not have
imposed upon them by Lloyd George
or any other spokesman for the ruling
'class the form of government they de-
sire. Only in that way can permanent
peace be made and an end put to a

Vatican Inquiry Bureau.
Then the Pope mentioned to me the
work done under his direction for
endeavoring to discover the where
abouts of missing men. Soon after
the war began, letters began to pour
into Rome, mostly addressed to the
Holy Father himself, imploring news
of missing combatants. The Pope
read them, took notes, and ordered
inquiries to be made, and towards
the end of 1914 he instituted special
bureau, with branches afterwards at
Paderborn, Freiburg, and Vienna.
I'm many cases." said the Pope, 1--WE
were able to give news to poor, anxious
families; but, of course, in many other
cases there was disappointment" Over
100000 letters were sent to families of
Italian soldiers who were captured or
missing.
His Holiness also mentioned the
work done after his prolonged nego-
tiations with the Powers to secure q
refuge in Switzerland for the sick and
wounded, and especially for consump-
tive cases. I'VE used our influence" /"
he said, whenever possible, to COM
mute the death penalty Of people con-
demned by military law. In number
of cases this was successful"
His Holiness made only passing
allusion to the services, and said
again: 1T was very little. We did all
that was possible, but it only touched
the great anguish of the war. He made
no mention of the enormous sums of
money sent by the Holy See to Bel
GUM, Poland, Montenegro, and other
countries for the purpose of feeding
starving peoples, nor of his repeated
protests against the brutalities of war
by whomsoever committed, nor Of his
three appeals for peace, the last of
which, dated August 1, 1917, contained
concrete proposals for the beginning Of
negotiations very similar to President
Wilson's Fourteen Points which came
later.

The chief provision OF the new mar
riage law is as follows, says Rev.
Joseph M. O'Hara in Extension Mag
azine:
"Only those marriages are valid
which are contracted before the par
ish priest or the ordinary Of the
place, or a priest delegated by either
Of these, and at least two witnesses"
(Canon 1094.)
BY the ordinary of the place is
meant the bishop of the diocese, the
vicar general, or, where such exists,
the vicar capitular, the vicar apostolic,
certain abbots, the papal legate "a Ia
tere) and, of course, the Roman pom
tiff, who has immediate, ordinary, uni
versal, full and supreme jurisdiction
in every parish and every diocese.
By the parish priest is meant the
head Of a economically erected parish,
our rectors of churches, and in most
dioceses every assistant priest, under,
of course, the obedience and direction
Of the pastor.
All those enumerated above, namely,
the bishop, within his diocese; the
priest, within his parish, etc., can in
their own territory validly marry or
empower (delegate) another priest to
marry, and can give permission to
their subjects to be married elsewhere.
Witnesses are all those having the
use Of reason, even minors, whether
Catholics or mont Catholics, men or
women, relatives of the contracting
parties or strangers. For validity it
is required only that there be two
present who are capable of testifying
to the fact of the marriage. It should
be unnecessary to add that whenever
possible only practical Catholics
should be asked to act as witnesses to
the matrimonial contract. In case of
necessity the priest will gladly furnish
proper and discreet witnesses for
any marriage.
In other words any marriage of
Catholics, no matter where contracted,
to be valid, that is, real and binding
marriage must be entered into before
the priest Of that place and two wit
nesses. All other marriage ceremo.
nies are, in the case of a Catholic, null
and void.
Hence for Catholics to attempt mar.
riage before civil magistrate or Prot
estant minister is to enter into an
unlawful union. Moreover the Catho.
lie who attempts marriage before a
sectarian minister as such, incurs ex.
communication by that very act.
It is .an abuse of terms, then, for
those who have entered into such in.
valid unions to ask the priest after.
wards ito bless the marriage" There
is no marriage there to be blessed. The
priest can marry the couple concerned,
but he cannot bless a non-existent
marriage.

WELFARE OF CATHOLIC PRESS.
Convention Called to Meet In Wash

inston, D. c., January 1924 With
That In View.
Thos. p. Hart, president of the
Catholic Press Association, has issued
the following letter to the members
of the association:
"The most important convention of
The Catholic Press Association ever
held since our organization, will meet
at Washington, D. c., on Friday and
Saturday, January % and "a. 1920. 1t
is called at the suggestion of Rt. Rev.
William T. Russell, d. D., secretary
Of the Administrative Committee, and
chairman of the Committee on Cath.
olic Press and Literature of the Ma
tional Catholic Welfare Council, who
has written to me, in part, as follows:
II am very anxious to meet person.
ally as many members of the Press
Association as possible, and lay my
plans before them for their considera-
tion.
"Our convention, which was sched-
uled for meeting last August, was
postponed because we were informed
that the Catholic Press would be one
of the principal topics for considera.
tion at the Conference of the Hier-
archy in September; and our Execu-
tive Board determined that it would
be both wise and deferential to await
the result of that conference.
"Now Bishop Russell has message
for our association. 1t needs no words
of mine to emphasize the inestimable
possibilities for good, which may be
developed from a convention, whereat
our membership will have the ad-
vantage of comforting with the official
representative of the Hierarchy, who,
l may be permitted to assure you, are
especially solicitous for the promotion
of the welfare of the Catholic Press.
Il feel that it will not be necessary
for me to urge the attendance of
representative of your publication at
the coming convention. The import
ance of your presence is evident. The
success of your own work as we'll as
the general advancement of the Apos-
tolate Of the Press, the respect and
loyal cooperation due the Hierarchy,
and the progress of Catholicism in
America are the cogent reasons, which
should assure the attendance of our
entire membership"
THE MOTHER OF DEMOCRACY,
The Catholic church is the mother
of democracy. She nursed it in in
fancy; she watched it's growth through
the centuries and today when the dis.
integrating forces of Socialism, Boil
shevism and anarchy are ready to
plunge their red daggers into the heart
of democratic government, the Catho.
lie church stands as the protecting
mother. Her voice is heard now as 1t
was throughout the years against de-.
stroying and devastating doctrines
and influences. In the days of the re-
mote past and those were but of yes
terday, many warnings of the church
were unheeded. She it was who saved
European civilization from the bar
baric hordes and she it is, who will
save present day civilization from the
chaos that threatens. This is as true
as there is sun in the heavens. Men
who love democracy, law and order
will recognize the moral power of
Christ's church, her wisdom and her
indomitable stand for right and JUS
tice. Yes, they must eventually recog-
nize it or democracy will perish.
