A WATERS REFLECTION AT THE
SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.

1t may be just as we'll that Society
should plainly understand what labor
is thinking-since it may not openly
express it's sentiments-as it serves
at the expensive banquets, checks the
furs and cloaks, or finds the proper
box at most improper show, that
teaches how the Sixth Commandment
can be set at naught. Looking EN-
Over is chance article by member
of the Walters Union which appeared
in an entirely conservative labor jour
nal, says America. Only the most
delicately chosen passages from his
reflections are here reproduced. They
may call for some apology, but for far
less than the subject they discuss:
''The Symphony Orchestra busted
loose last week, which gives is a
chance to grab line on what the
ladies think they're wearing this win

-, "The kippy prima donnas of Cincin-
MATHS unemployed who are rich enough
to loaf without being arrested, all
seemed hyped up with the desire to
eliminate women's dress evils by
eliminating the dress. One pipen at
the Symphony concert shows that
there is going to be stubborn cpl
demic of shoulder blades and spines

won't mention out of respect to her
Pomeranian, wore nothing more than
skirt held up by pair of suspenders.

material If a stitch in time saves

boxes looked like an Old Home week

half hours trolley. ride across the
bay. AS we neared the village, chill
dren came out, and bowed, women
stopped, ankle-deep in muddy rise
paddles, to smile, and sun-tanned
workmen, struggling with loads of rice
straw or urging little horses hidden
under miniature haystack on their
backs, stood and mopped their fore
heads and gave us a salute. Every
one was barefooted and poorly clad,
but the grace of Baptism seemed to
ennoble them and somehow they were
different from the pagan villagers.
Urakami is Catholic village of seven
thousand souls and here away from
enervating civilization the priests
have been able to keep their people
simple and honest. 1t recalled Ar.
cadia, or the Cure of AIRS and his flock,
and as we picked our steps along the
narrow cowpaths that wind, with ap.
parently no reason for winding, along
the rice-felds, it was painful to see
signs of new era in the life of the
little village. A factory was being
built and it would mean the coming of
several thousand pagans into this
chosen spot, where the church built
by the villagers themselves has al
ways been the centre of the village.
Scenes Of Martyrs.
Another day we visited the sites of
the two martyrdoms of Nagasaki,
when the Christians of Urakami, hun.
dreds in number, we're driven along
the road we walked, and with the
Christians of Nagasaki were martyred
on a hill overlooking the city and in
view of the harbor. Both cities
within a hundred yards of each other
are natural amphitheatres for such a
sacrifice. AS we knelt and kissed the
spot, and looked before us as the mar
tyrs must have gazed from their
crosses, the mountains to the West
were dark and purple, and behind
them an orange-red sun was dying and
making the mountains darker by the
contrast. The city lay at our feet out
lining the waters edge and seemed
quiet from the distance, and the many
white sails of the Japanese junks
were resting unmoved by any breeze
It was hard to visualize the clamor
ing crowds that threw the martyrs
bodies over the cliff into the sea, and
Japan of today seems to have risen in
wrath against the Church. Yet hel
persecution of today is as effective as
the bloody wars of the past. Japan

We had the honor of greeting Father
Robert, an older brother of the we'll
known Procurator of Hongkong. He
is a Confessor of the Faith. After
months of hard living with his Chris
tians in the mountain caves and hid
den valleys, he was captured and
beaten and imprisoned, during the
years of persecution in Korea. I'm
like Dorie and De Bretenieres, he could
could, and it was thrilling to realize
that the jolly old man who smoked his
pipe with us as he took us through
the schools and orphanage of his mis-
sion in the city of Taikou, was really
connecting link with martyrs of the
past.
l forgot to say that Bishop Demange
could not meet us at the station be-
cause he was engaged in laying new
altar in Father Roberts church, the
Cathedral. He designed and superin-
tended the whole affair, inspecting it
| brick by brick as it rose. The bricks
are made behind the Bishops house,
| out of clay taken from the church
grounds. His workmen are Chinese.
He prefers them to Japanese or
Koreans The Jap is a hustler but I'M
scrupulous, the Korean is honest and
lazy, while the Chinese, with whatever
defects he has, never breaks a con-
tract and can work.

A Feast.
We crossed to Fusan and the rick
shaws carried us to the "Catholic
Church. 1t had a cross on it, but the
square-jawed ministers told us it was

3 Father Ferrand welcomed us from
second-story, window and fastened
to prepare affairs for us. His joy was
evident, and he spread himself to
make dinner for us. 1t was Friday,
but fish apiece and peanuts and
some wine that had not been opened
since Bishop Dougherty and Father
Walsh had honored him with visits,
were pieces de resistance to which we
gladly succumbed. We were tired
after rough night on the straits be-
tween Fusan and Shimonoseki, but we
pushed on to Taikou before midnight.
Father Vermorel welcomed us in Eng
lish at the station, and we bumped our
way through a real Korean settlement
until the "pousse-pousse" could go no
further,-then we walked,
1t is hardly fair to make compare
sons as we know little of the difficult
ties of each mission, but our hearts
warmed to Bishop Demange who in
seven years has. built up a series of
buildings that will give him lasting
consultations as the years speed by.
Everyone of them is urgently neces-
sary, yet he seems to have planned
each carefully and with foresight into
the future. His Cathedral, seminary,
orphanage, two or three schools, young
mems hall, convent and residence
were designed and built on the spot
with the minimum of expense, yet
somehow he has chosen well each site,
and left plenty of room for expansion.
He commenced seven years ago with
nothing, but an optimistic viewpoint
and virility of mind and deep devo-
ton to Our Lady of Lourdes have
found him means to raise up sturdy
Catholic life in Taikou. He was ready
for Father Prices inquisition and
knew the details of his work. All
along the line the Bishops seem favor,

AN OLD MANS REVERIE.

If | were an angel
With good pair of wings,
I'd fly through this world
With the love that faith brings.
I'd pick up the fallen,
I'd give life to the blind,
I'd give food to the hungry,
And to the poor I'd be kind.
To the sinner would cling
Both by day and by night,
l never would leave him
Till l sure made him right.
There is many poor cripple
That has fallen from the fold
Whose heart is all right
If picked up from the cold.
We should never look down
On a poor soul that is weak;
If we can't say good word
1t is best not to speak.
For you never can tell
When you'll meet with fall;
So it is best to step careful
Or not step at all.
Look at Lucifer, a leader
Beyond heavens gate;
Through pride and vain glory
He met grim fate. .
When you sum it all up
From beginning to end,
There is considerable mystery
That we can't comprehend.
So let us be thankful
Where'er we are found;
And the Lord will take care of us
When the time comes around.

TO CAN WITHOUT SUGAR

Is 1t possible to can fruits success
fully without sugar and, if so, what is
the best method, are questions asked
nowadays by many housewives in
view of the scarcity and high price
of sugar. Sometimes fruits needed
to make the diet more palatable and
varied during the winter have gone
to waste because sugar was not avail
able for canning when they were ripe.
Such waste can be prevented; for ap-
piles somewhat underripe, also goose
berries raspberries, blueberries. and
other berries, and sweet varieties of
plums and cherries may all be canned
in their own juices without the addi-
tiOn Of sugar. In fact, many house
wives think that the flavor of many
fruits canned without sugar and
sweetened just before using is better
and more like that of fresh fruit than
when canned with large quantities of
sugar or in heavy sirup. If the fruit
is very sour or is canned in large
pieces, heating for few minutes when

make it penetrate the fruit. more
thoroughly and evenly.
Fruits may be canned in their own
juices without the addition of any
sweetening in at least three ways:
A simple method Of canning, espe-
cially good for such soft, jufcy fruits
as berries, is as follows: Pack the
washed fruit into the jar and, without
adding any liquid of any kind, process
the fruit in the customary way for
the usual period, or perhaps four or
five minutes longer. The processing
draws the juice from the fruit and
the canned product often has an even
better flavor than when sirup is added
Another way of canning fruit with
out sugar is to cook the ripest fruits
over moderate heat until the juice
is drawn from them, adding no wa
ter unless necessary and in any case
only a very little. Drain the juice
from the fruit through a jelly bag,
bring this juice TO the boil, and use
