A DRY" HEMISPHERE.

A wave Of agitation in favor Of
prohibition is now sweeping over
South America. Five of the
largest states-Argentine, Brazil,
Uruguay, Paraguay, and Chile
are in a turmoil Of debate on the
ACCESSIBILITY of prohibiting en-
tirely the traffic in liquor; and the
prospects are that before long
they and the entire Continent may
become as dry as a vast Sahara.
The question Of prohibition
was brought to the front in South
America with the introduction of
bill into the Argentine Chamber
of Deputies to put an end to the
legalized liquor traffic. The re-
suit was that the wine growers
and others put forth strenuous
protests against it's passage, and
the "wet" forces of the five
states are being organized to fight
the prohibition movement. News
papers are filled with editorials
and articles for and against the
liquor traffic as it is now con-
Quoted.
The United States, of course.
comes in for both praise and
blame. The vets point to it as a
"horrible example," and the drys
refer to it as the home Of all the
virtues usually connected with
prohibition. Many public men in
the South American states, while
they are in sympathy with the eff
forts made to restrict the liquor
traffic and rid it of it's parasitic
evils, believe that the country is
not yet ready for total prohibit
ton as provided in the Argentine
bill.
If the advocates Of prohibition
in South America do not succeed
in placing such a law upon the
statute books at the present time
they will no doubt continue the
agitation; and it is practically
certain that before very many
years the Southern hemisphere
will be as dry as the Northern.

CARMEuTE SOL|CTs FUNDS
SISTERS NEED $4,000 TO CARRY
ON WORK AMONG FRENCH Or
PHANS-NUN. TELLS STORY OF
SACK OF RHEIMS.

Sister Marie of the Divine Heart,
Carmelite nun of the devastated
convent Of Rheims, France, has come
to America to beg for funds that lit
tie band of Sisters may continue their
work of charity among the poor and
the refugees of France, especially the
children. She is guest of George
town Visitation Convent, Washington,
ID. c., where she received her earlier
education.
Sister Marie, who is a niece of the
late Most Reverend Placide Louis
Chapelle, d. D., Archbishop of New
Orleans and Apostolic Delegate Extra
ordinary to Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines, and a former pastor OF
st. Matthew'S, in Washington, has a
pitiful story to tell of the wants of
the nuns who did so much and suf-
fered so much during the tragedy
of war. Stationed in Rheims where
their little convent had been evacuat-
ed of all but herself and the Mother
PriOress, Sister Marie with twelve
Sisters of Charity who occupied the
adjoining convent, were present dur
ing the bombardment of the city. They
were in constant attendance on the
German wounded housed in their con-
vents shortly after the invasion of the
city.
The little band of Sisters for whom
Sister Marie has made her trip to
America, are now housed in tents
at Cygnac in the South of France.
An old basilica, dating from the
twelfth century, has been offered them
with the proviso that they obtain funds
with which to make it suitable for
their purposes. With the blessing of
| the Sisters she has left in dire want
Sister Marie arrived in the United
States with heart filled with hope
and trust in the generosity of the
American people, whose boys, she de.
clared, had done more to bring back
to France true spirituality than any
thing else.
Prior to the war these Sisters OF
the Carmelite Apostolic House OF
Rheims, conducted their charities
among the poor of the city. With in
adequate facilities at their disposal
they are now trying to aid the ref
ugees and provide home for the
many children left homeless since the
war. The $4,000 which Sister Marie
has been delegated to ask for in Amer
lea, they think, will suffice to pay fol
the building of their new home. With
the endorsement of Cardinal Gibbons
Sister Marie will tour the middle
west where she expects to raise the
money that will enable her Sisters
! to carry on once more their work fol
humanity.

MIRACULOUS HOST
FIRST CENTENARY OF ITS DIS
cOVERY CELEBRATED IN AUS.
TRALIA-AN INTERESTING TALE
OF PIONEER DAYS.

News from Sydney, Australia, re-
cords the celebration of an unusual
anniversary which recalls pioneer
Catholic days in that land, says the
Boston Pilot" 1t was the observance
OF the first centenary of the finding of
wonderfully preserved Blessed Host
on the site of st. Patrick's Church at
Church Hill, near Sydney, N. S. w.
The occasion marked the centenary
of the discovery, in the house of
William Davis, which was on the site
OF the present church, of the Blessed
Eucharist which had been left there
by Father O'Flynn, an early priest of
the settlement. Upon being deported
by Gov. Lachlan MacQuarie, he was
refused permission to return and re-
move 1t. On May 8, 1920 Father Con
molly, another early priest, celebrated
Mass in this house. When he opened
the pyx, he found the Sacred Host
fresh and sweet, as if the bread for
it had been baked on the evening be
fore.
In the celebration of the anniver
sary, the relics Of the preservation
were exposed on side altar. The Oc
caslon draws attention to remark
able incident of the early days OF
Catholicism in Australia.
In 1917 there were some 5000 Cath
olics in and about Sydney. Father
Jeremiah Ic;,h
was appointed Project Apostolic. On
his arrival in Sydney Gov. MacQuarie
told him that ''popish missionary
would not be allowed to go within
the settlement. Father Flynn secret
ly ministered to his people. He was
arrested without warrant or accuse
ton, placed in prison, and, without
trial, shipped back to London as a
prisoner.
Before his arrest he was accustom
ed to celebrate the Sacred Mysteries
in secret in the house of a pious
Catholic named Davis. The Sacred
Species were there reserved for the
sick and dying. They were kept in 6
cedar tabernacle. Father Flynn tried
to obtain permission to return to the
house, but failed to get it.
There taper or lamp was kept
lighted for two years after his de
parture. Members of the little focl
gathered there to adore around the
Bread of Life. Davis devoted the
Holy House of Australia" with it,
grounds and the sum of $1,000 to re
ligiOn. On it's site now stands {
church dedicated to God under the
invocation of the national apostle O.
| Ireland.

The Brooklyn Tablet issues a
warning to the public against a
solicitor calling himself Father
Andre" who is collecting aims for
poor missions. He claims to be a
member of the White Fathers and
speaks of his Superior, a Father
Mcclure, whose picture he carries.
He also produces papers to sub
stantiate his claim to being a
priest. He is about five feet tall,
very black hair, dark eyes and a
broWnish complexion. He may
find it convenient to move to-
wards the West in order to contin-
ne his work and Catholics should
be on their guard against him,

QUITTING THE LUTHERAN
CHURCH.

Recent dispatches from Berlin
refer to the notable falling off in
Lutheran church membership
throughout Germany during the
past year. So great has this de-
lection become that the Berlin
Synod Of the German Lutheran
Church, in order to counterfeit the
movement, voted, at recent ses-
sion, to take drastic measures
against persons who withdraw.
Reports read at the meeting of
the Synod showed that the num-
Der of defections last year
amounted to 5,297, while in 1915
it did not go beyond twenty-five.
AS many women as men have
withdrawn, most of them being
members Of the Social-Democratic
party.
The synod resolved that all
those who withdraw should be ex-
cluded from the privileges Of the
church; that their children be de-
MED baptism and that instruction
for confirmation be given only on
certain conditions. To make these
measures effective, the synod
voted to introduce cards to show
that the holders are bona fide
church members.
Escape from church taxation is
said to be the principal reason for
the Withdrawals. Every German
citizen is assumed to be a member
Of the state church and is taxed for
it's upkeep. Formerly there were
few Withdrawals owing to the diff
ficulties placed in the way of those
wishing to do so, and also to the
social discredit that accompanied
the act. But under a new law
all person has to do is to appear
before a designated official and
state his desire to give up his
church membership. Thereafter
he is exempt from the payment of
church taxes.

Advertising has become one of
the greatest forces of the modern
world. No cause can succeed
without publicity. No business
can be profitably carried on with
out advertising. The value of add
vertising is due to the fact that
the printed word is more powerful
than the spoken word. Newspa-
pers and other publications give
evidence of the extent to which
judicious advertising is relied up
on in every line of human endeav-
or. Many Of our Catholic institu-
tons, and especially our schools,
have been rather slow to bring
their light from under a bushel.
The successful ones long ago
learned to advertise.

Marine MEMORIAL CHAPEL
DESCRIPTION OF SHRINE TO BE
ERECTED IN FRANCE IN MEN,
DRY OF SOLDIERS KILLED m
THE DECISIVE BATTLES OF TIE
MARINE.

While the "Te Deum' of the victory
was being sung in November, 1918, a
number of French Catholics conceived
the idea of erecting a chapel on the
banks of the Marine to commemorate
| the decisive battles won there by the
allies. For this purpose committee
| was organized by the Duchess of Es-
| tiSSac.
Marshal FOch was asked to choose
| the exact spot where this memorial
| of the two battles should stand. His
choice rested upon Dormans, on the
| border of the province of Ile-de-France
and of Champagne, half way between
Chateau-Thierry and EpernayDOr-
mans, where in July, 1918, the Ger
mans had for second time crossed
the Marine; but where also, after be-
ing counter-attacked by the French
and the Americans, they were driven
back across the river on a retreat
which was to end only with the arm
| istice
Above the wrecked village, some
hills display the foliage of a fine do
main surrounding an old castle, which
Mas been generously donated by its
owner to the fund of the chapel.
The memorial chapel will be erect
| ed upon one of these hills which
overhangs the little town, the Marine
| and the Paris StrasbOurg railway from
| a height of two hundred feet. On the
other side of the river, the hill of Cha
l. g, whit OF dc
| injured, the colossal bronze statue of
Pope Urban II, the pope of the First
Crusade, who was also son of this
land of Champagne.
On July IS, 1919, the anniversary
of the offensive following which Dor
mans was liberated, the site of the
| future chapel was blessed by Cardinal
Lucon, Archbishop of Rheims, in pres
ence of a number of Bishops, army
officers and members of Parliament.
This year, the first subscriptions
| being collected, competition was
started among twelve renowned
French architects and their plans,
which are all quite noteworthy, have
| just been publicly exhibited.
The plan which was singled out pro-
vides for the building upon the sum-
nit of the hill of a ROmaneByZantine
chapel with high cupOla. This cha.
pei, which will cost upwards of seven
| million francs, will tower above a
whole monumental system of slopes
| and platforms where great number
of the faithful will be able to assemble
for open air services during the great
anniversary pilgrimages. All around
| the topmost terrace a clOiSter will be
built whose inner walls will bear in
scriptions perpetuating the remem-
brance of the heroes who died for
their native land, and the battles and
achievements that took place in the
region of Dormans.
| In the chancel crypt chapel VIII
be reserved for the soldiers lost in
| battle and never heard of, in order
that special prayers and Masses may
| be said there "for those who were
| lost but whose remembrance" says
| the founders, lis to be more particu-
larly cherished and honored in every
| heart"
Another chapel shall be consecratec
to the gallant sons of America who
fell gloriously at Chateau Thierry,
the Belleau Woods, Fossoy and at
the very gates of Dormans, helping
to secure the supreme victory.

PROSELYTIZING IN MEXICO

Our readers are more or less
familiar with the efforts made by
the Protestant sects to Wean Mex
lean Catholics from their allegi-
ance to the ancient church. TAX
ing advantage Of the disturbed
conditions that prevail in that un-
fortunate country the sects have
parcelled the territory among
themselves for the purpose Of ia
cilitating their oselytizing cam
paign.
The Bishops Of Mexico are well
aware Of the efforts made by non
Catholic organizations to sew the
seeds Of irreligion among the
people, for that is what it amounts
to. Not even the most sanguine
of Protestant missionaries believe,
that he can make a good Protes-
tant out Of a lukeWarm Mexican
Catholic. The Mexican Bishops
have taken advantage Of the brief
respite from prescription and per-
secution which the Church is now
enjoying in that land to devise
means and apply measures to com
bat Protestant propaganda and
Socialistic activity among their
focks.
At a recent meeting under the
Presidency Of Archbishop Ruiz Of
Morelia, a pastoral letter was
drafted calling attention to the
ambitious projects of the Protes-
tant sects and the real meaning Of
their campaign of proselytism,
and condemning socialistic doc
trines and practices.
The letter calls attention to the
fact that in Mexico City the
Protestants propose to establish a
university at a cost of two million
dollars, theological seminary at
a cost of 100000, a hospital at a
cost Of about 100000, and two
colleges, while in other parts of
the republic it is planned to found
technical and normal schools and
greatly extend their present fields.
The Protestants have heralded
their descent upon Mexico as a
movement to "educate, elevate
and civilize the natives" To this
end they are gathering funds and
adding to their corps Of teachers
and preachers.
In the face Of this Protestant
invasion the Church in Mexico is,
humanity speaking, powerless. 1t
is weak and impoverished. The
revolution wrested from the Bish-
ops the properties which they held
in trust for the education Of the
people and the care of the sick
and infirm. The clergy have been
exiled, the schools closed, the re-
ligious expelled and the assistance
given by Catholic priests and re-
ligious Of n-Mexican nationality
has been temporarily, at least,
withdrawn. A spirit Of irreligion
fostered by the revolutionary
leaders is abroad in the land. The
people, after eight years Of civil
war, are miserably poor and very
FESTIVE and fit subjects for social
istic and sectarian propaganda.
| The Church in Mexico needs the
moral and financial backing Of the
! Church in the United States tc
weather the storm Of sectarian as
; sault to which it is now being sub
jected. Our prayers and sympa
thetic interest should be extended
4 to our co-religionists in that dis
J tracted country to the end that
! peace may be restored and thu
/ Church be granted her just right
J, to minister to. the people whom
lshe has civilized.

OLD FR|ARY FOR SALE

There has recently been placed on
sale in England a place which recalls
some interesting history. 1t is the
ancient Friary of Lichfield, which. be-
longed to the Grey Friars.
1t was founded about 1929 by Alex
ander Stavensby, Bishop of Coventry
and Lichfield. 1t is believed that
there was religious foundation on
this spot as early as the year S96.
The Friary was destroyed by fire In
1891, and the present structure was
erected in 1545.

FAST PACE LED FOR
SIX ROUNDS EACH BY
HEAVYWEIGHT BOXERS
On Next to Final Training Day,
Dempsey and Miske Go On

BENTON HARBOR, Mich, Sept 3
--tA. P.)-With but one more day OF
hard work remaining in their training
grind, Jack Dempsey and Billy MinsI
Thursday gave their sparring partners
vicious mauling for six rounds
Speed was the watchword and after
the workout Dempsey and the chal-
longer declared they boxed at the top
Of their form.
Dempsey, however, got the best
workout as he travelled three murder
Gus sessions with Harry Greb, the
Pittsburgh light heavyweight, and an
other trio with Marty Farrell, Pacific
Coast middleweight. Miske feels the
lack of capable sparring mates and
he was compelled to set the pace him
self.
Greb Gives Real Fight
The three-round set to between Greb
and Dempsey was more in the nature
OF a real fight instead of a training
romp. Dempsey bore into the Pitts
burgher with savage rights and lefts
and lifted him off the canvas with one
right handler to the ribs. The cham
pion showed the crowd of 1900 that
he was In perfect condition.
Early in the third round Greb's
