ST. LOUIS UNIVERSITY
DEVELOPED FROM ACADEMY
FOUNDED IN 1818-JESUlTS
TOOK CHARGE IN 1927.

More than a century ago, when ST.
Louis, Mo-, was only a struggling
frontier town, the st. Louis University
had it's beginning. In November, 1918,
three years before Missouri became a
state in the Union, the Right Rev.
erend Louis Du Bourg, Bishop of
Louisiana, with residence in St. Louis,
opened the st. Louis Academy. Two
years later the academy expanded in
to the st. Louis College.
In 1923 the members of the Society
of Jesus came to Missouri from White
marsh, Maryland, crossing the Allie
ghenies, descending the Ohio in fiat
boats and arriving in St. Louis from
Indiana on foot. At the urgent re-
quest of Bishop Rosati, Bishop Du
Bourg's successor, they took over the
management of the College with the
fall session of 1927.
On December %, 1882, the College
was honored by the Missouri state
legislature with it's charter as a Uni
versity. A faculty of medicine was
established in 1886, faculty of law
in 1913; faculty of dentistry in 1903
and faculty of commerce and
finance in 1910. Thus ST. Louis Uni
versity has nearly all of the principal
courses Of educational effort. 1t in
troduced them into the Middle West.
It has been the pioneer of education
IN the West.

interesting is the room fitted up for
the worship Of the pagan goddess
Mythra. When this house was exca-

room Of Mythra was walled up. DR..
Kirsch explains this by saying that at
some time the dwelling passed from
pagan to Christian hands and then the
entrance Of the room was walled up.

HUNGARIAN PREMIER
FORMER HUNGARIAN LEADER AL.
DRESSES c. p. A. CONFERENCE
-DESCRiBES TERRORS OF Boil
SHEViSM.

Former Premier Charles HusZar of
Hungary, who is in the United States
to seek relief for his fellow country
men, described as ''Bolshevist inven-
tons" the stories Of pogroms, perse-
cutions and outrages going the rounds
of the press in this country and parts
of Europe. While in New York the
former Premier addressed a meeting
of the Catholic Press Association
which was in session at the time.
The Hungarian Government had not
only not instigated or approved the
attacks on Jews in that country, but
had done much to protect and help
them, M. Huszar declared. He point
ed out that the Government had sent
him to VladivOstOck to accomplish
the repatriation of $4,000 war pris-
oners, more than half of whom were
Jews.
Il represent the Hungarian Red
Cross, the Hungarian Parliament, and
the Hungarian Government, and what
money | collect is to go to the benefit
of the people," he said.
M. Huszar announced that he had a
letter from Cardinal Gasparri, papal
Secretary of State, commencing him
and his mission to the Episcopacy,
clergy and laity Of the United States.
After the overthrow Of Bella Kun,
Hungary was in chaos. M. Huszar
said. All machinery of Government
was a wreck; there was no parlia-
ment; there were no police or mill
tary there were only the Bolshevist
newspapers: no telegraph or tele-
phone and no industry or agri-
culture. 1t was under such condi-
tons that new fabric of government
and civilization had to be erected, he
said.
During Bella Kuhn's ascendancy NJ.
HusZar was arrested and imprisoned
for five weeks.
Il was treated most barbarOusly by
Bella Kun's orders, and finally it be-
came necessary to remove me to a
hospital, from which, with the help of
a doctor. | escaped VI. Huszar said.
M. HusZar said he strongly favored
and recommended an international
union to oppose the spread of BoIshe-
Vism.

GERMAN MISSIONARIES
NEGOTIATIONS PROCEEDING WELL
BETWEEN ENGLAND AND VAT
ICAN

American Catholics are deeply in
terested in the negotiations now going
on with the British Government for
future control of the Catholic missions
in India and the former German col
Onies. The missions in India are
stated by German priests and when
the war started 100 were interned and
100 were placed under surveillance.
while 400 were allowed to go free.
Eventually all were repatriated In for
mer German territories all the priests
were repatriated, and the result is the
natives are relapSing into paganism
1t was thought at first the Italians
might supply priests, but this was
found impossible owing to a short
supply. Also there is the shortage of
Irish priests, and the church of Ire
land has taken over the China mis-
sion field
Proposals now have been made for
missions reconstructed under Ameri-
can or British superors, and allowing
German priests to return to their
posts on being vouched for Individual
ly This plan now is being discussed
by the British Government and the
Vatican, and likely will be adopted
The British Government has not
met the wishes of the Vatican regard
ing the disposition of the mission
property which was sequestered, as
it was German owned. The Vatican
claimed it was the property of the
Church and Great Britain has rec
ognized this view and restored it to
the Church.

THE GIRL GUIDES
MOVEMENT GAINS IN GREAT
BRITAIN-TO OFFSET DAN
GERS TO GIRLS.

Declaring that "the woman move
ment may be classed as one of the
turning points in history" the Very
Rev. Monsignor Jackman, canon of
Westminster Cathedral, London, and
private secretary of Cardinal Bourne,
has urged the Catholic girls of Eng
land to identify themselves with the
Girl Guides movement, which is now
becoming very powerful in the coun-
try.
Face the facts. Whether you like
it or not, you have girls, mere chill
dren as we'll as their elders, in every
possible enterprise in both town and
country. Do you like them at the pit
brow? Do you like to see them in the
breweries bottling and stopping the
beer, washing the self-same bottles in
constant contact and cOmpaniOnship
of boys and young men? Do you like
them in the shops? Do you like to
see them running the streets with
your kilograms? Do you like them at
the pOstOffice and the telephone eX-
change? Do you like them at the rail
way barriers, taking and checking
your tickets? Do you, or did you, like
them on the busses and trans? Did
you like them in France during the
war? Do you like them in the cafes,
bars and restaurants? Do you like
them in the hotels, theaters and mu-
sic halls? Do you like them in the
slums?
well, there they are, in occupa-
tons desirable and undesirable, dan
gerous and harmless. Is not, l ask,
in all earnestness, the work of the
Girl Guides a HeaVen-sent remedy to
guide these girls and women in their
difficult path in life?"
Monsignor Jackman pointed out that
the Sisters of the Sacred Heart, the
Daughters Of the Cross and the Ursu-
lines have adopted the scheme, and
that that should set at rest any hest
tatiOn felt by other communities.

WORK Or RESTORING UNIVERSE
TY PROCEEDING RAPIDLY
MORE STUDENTS THAN IN 1913.

There were 2,949 students at Lou
vain this year compared with $500
in 1913 states M. Cammaerts, the
famous Belgian poet. The housing
of these students is a problem or the
greatest difficulty, and it is no uncom-
mon thing for seven or eight to occu-
Ply the one room. The old university
is the most pitiable sight of all the
ruined buildings. The destruction of
the commercial school is a great
handicap, some lectures being actual
ly held in private houses. However,
the work of restoration is proceeding
with great rapidity. The famous Ii
brary is, of course, practically gone,
yet the donations of books and the
books and manuscripts to be restored
by Germany under the terms of the
Peace Treaty will make of Louvain
Library a noted collection.

tomb in the Catacombs, is to be seen
under the main altar. The church is
built on the site of her fathers house.
The bath room of the house is still
shown to tourists.
In the Church of Santa Croce is
preserved a relic of the true Cross.
We visited this church on Good Fri
day afternoon, and were there at the
time the Queen of Italy came to ven
crate the Holy Cross.
Pisa and Genoa.
On our way home we passed through
Pisa where We stopped between trains
to see the Cathedral, the best model
of Romanesque architecture. We
climbed upon the leaning tower, and
came to the conclusion that it does
not need to lean much farther before
it will tOpple over. 1t is now fourteen
feet out of the perpendicular, having
increased about eight inches since
1900. The Baptistry is also a beauti-
full domelike structure. There is a
perfect echo in it. The guide sang the
four notes Of a chord in quick sue
cession and the echo was perfect har-
mOny. The echo lasts about forty
seconds, giving ample time to appre-
ciate the harmony Of the chord.
We also spent a day in Genoa and
then returned home by way OF Domo-
dossola and the Simplon tunnel. This
is the longest tunnel in the world. 1t
took US twenty-five minutes to pass
through. At the Swiss end OF the tun
mel is the town of Brig. From here
we took the LOetschberg balm to Bern.
The line is electrified all the way, and
the train climbs up over the noun
tainS in most reckless fashion. In
places it mounts above the glaciers.
Then it winds its way down again. 1t
passes a certain church three times,
each on a. different level. The seen
crv along this route is simply eXquls-
ite. Mountain tops poke their noses
above the clouds with perfect audac-
itv. Cliffs and crevices. rocks and "a
vines. snow and ice are thrown to-
pether in most variegated way.
During the summer vacation which
beams July %, | expect to go to Ger
many again, to Luxembourg, Belgium
and France.

VATICAN CHO|RS
FAMOUS SINGERS DUE HERE IN

TOR.

Plans for another visit OF the Papal
Choirs to America have been definite
ly completed
If plans develop fully, the choirs are
due to reach New York early in OctO-
Der. They will comprise last years
choirs, selected from among the sing
ers of the Sistine Chapel and papal
basilicas, and special voices including
sOlOists, among whom are some who
sing regularly at the papal chapels.
This has been made possible by Oh
tanning as chief musical director of
the tour, MOnsignOr Rella, who since
the practical retirement q few Years
ago of MOnsignOr PerOsi. has been the
actual director of the Sistine choir.
AS far as actual work goes, the
great genius of Lorenzo Perosi is now
lost to the Church. So MonsignOr
Rella takes up his baton; and the
selection of this distinguished must
clan as director of the chOirs inSures

sung except by the papal and Sistine
choirs
MonsignOr Perosi's organist brother,
Mariana Perosi, will accompany the
party, bringing with him MOnsignOr
Perosi's wonderful music, which is
thus made available for America.

HOW 4 COOTE BITES
ENGLISH MEMORIAL TO IRISH
HEROES CAUSES DE5ATE-W.
COOTE. M. p, STARTS INQUIRY
-SQUELCHED BY CHURCHILL.

A neat setback was administered III
the London House of Commons a few
DAVIS AGO to Mr.. w. COote, member OF
parliament for South Tyrone, bigot-
ed champion Of political Protestant
ism. who returned only a short time
AGO from a somewhat unenVlaDle mis-
sion in the United States.
Getting up in the House with the
obvious aim of making mischief about
the proposed memorial to the soldiers
of the Irish regiments, which IS TO be
placed in Westminster Cathedral. Mi.
COOte asked the Secretary OF State Tor
War whether he was aware that cir
cular had been issued under the pat
rOnage of the Duke Of COnnaught and
other military persOnages, soliciting
funds for the erection of a memorial
to the men of the Irish regiments
who had fallen in the war.
The burden of his complaint, as
COote was at some pains to show, was
that the memorial was to take the
form of decorations in Roman Cath
olic chapel in a Roman Catholic ca
thedral in London COote main
tanned that half the men who fell We're
Protestants, and therefore the Secre-
tary for War should take steps to see
that the proposed memorial should be
unsectarian in nature.
Coote Scuelched By Churchill.
The War Secretary disagreed with
! him, and said that it was a matter
for the individual subscribers, and not
one in which the War Office should
intervene. CoOte stuck to his guns,
and with righteous Indignation asked
the minister if he was aware that men
in the highest positions in the British
army were engaged in propagating a
circular, appealing to the friends of
the Protestant soldiers in Ireland who
have fallen to support this Catholic
memorial. "Will they be allowed" he
asked wrathfully, ito go on in their
capacity as British officers in high Of
fees in the army?'
Evidently they will be allowed tC
go on, for Mr.. Churchill replied very
sharply to Coote that a campaign tc
raise a Catholic memorial to Catholic
soldiers who died fighting for the
country in not one which, to say the
least. calls for any sort of interior
ence on the part of the War Office.
The House of Commons cheereC
this reply, and Coote sat down, having
deservedly got what he asked for.

Of his personal funds, the Catholics of
Chicago have taken a long lead in the
relief of the sufferers of Central
Europe The work Of the German
Austrian Relief Committee, of the
archdiocese, organized by Archbishop
Mundelein last October, with the Rt.
Rev. Mgr. F. A. Rempe, Vicar General,
at it's head, has been SO successful
that other cities have asked for it's
plans and methods.
Already some $4,000 in cash, and
more than 100000 in clothing have
tee and sent to distribution centers in
Austria, Hungary and Germany.
This is apart from some $4,000
which the Catholic Church Extension
Society has collected from it's mem
bers through the central offices in the
LeMoyne building, and is now being
distributed among the religious orders
in Central Europe.
The relief given by the diocesan
committee is sent by Monsignor Rem
pc direct to the cardinals and bishops
of Central Europe, who distribute this
aid through various charity organiza-
tons to the needy, irrespective of
creed. Four factors entered into
these collections. Under authority of
the Archbishop collections were taken
up in the Catholic churches aggregat-
ing $51, 900. Charitable persons sent
$4,000 direct to the treasurer of the
committee, the Rev. John P. Schiller
Individuals and organizations raised
$4,000 more, making the Sill, 900
cash
Over 200 big boxes of clothing, un-
derwear, shoes, foods, etc, were col
lected by Mr.. Bernard Ferring, in
charge of that form of aid collections
The Catholic Order of Foresters, the
Knights of Columbus and the Catholic
WOmen's clubs of the city are being
modified behind this charity by
Father Oscar Strehl, general agent OF
the committee.
Plans are under way to continue
this relief work for two years more
and the appeal is that, by succOring
the starving, a great step will be made
toward offsetting the inroads of boil
shevism and radicalism in the strick
en- regions.
