TO. STOP PAYMENTS
ILLINOIS ARE HIT BY NEW
LAW.

The constitutional convention in ses-
sion at Springfield, ILL.,, on May 6,
adopted section which will prohibit
the payment of any public funds for
the care of dependents or delinquents
in any sectarian institution.
This section of the minority report
of the committee on education is not
to become effective for fifteen years
after the adoption of the new consti-
tuition. The delay is for the purpose
of permitting the state to provide in
situations of it's own for the care and
education of it's wards.
Delegate Shanahan estimated that
these institutions will take fifteen
years to build and will cost between
$15,OOO,OO0 and $2O,OOO,0O0, and $4,000
900 year to maintain. In 1919 there
were 12,175 dependents in eighty pr
vate institutions which had the en-
dorsement of the state department OF
public welfare. These institutions are
represented to have spent that year
$2,400000; also half of them obtained
no aid whatever from the public treas
ury. The other forty received nearly
100000 from taxes, which were most
ly paid in Cook county.

IN CzECHO-SLOyAK|A
SOCIALIST FANATIC REMOVES
CRUClFiXES FROM PRAGUE
SCHOOLS.

Very serious developments are TAX
ing place in the new state of CZecho-
SlOvakia. BY order of the mayor of
Prague, a Socialist fanatic by name
Keller, the crucifX has been removed
from all the schools Of the city. The
sacred emblemS were torn from the
walls, and thrown on dust carts which
took them to an unknown destination
The measures were taken at the in
stigatiOn of band of teachers who
recently held meeting and decided
that there should be no crucifXes in
public schools, that no prayers should
be recited before or after class, and
that no teacher should play the organ
in Church or lead the chants at Mass
or otherwise assist at any religious Of
flee in public manner.
The example given by the capital
has been followed by the villages, with
the result that there is lively agitation
throughout the country. In some 10
calities the people have themselves
replaced the crucifiX in the schools by
force, whilst in others the families
have decided to keep their children
from the schools until such time as
their religious rights are guaranteed

CATHOLIC REQUESTS.

For the past few years there is
noticeable pleasing spirit OF
generosity on the part Of Cath
olics in the matter of religious
works. In other words, scarcely
a week passes but the papers in
form us that new requests have
been left to Catholic charity, edu-
cation or other welfare work
through the will Of some deceased
member Of the faith. This is in
deed an encouraging sign OF a
re-awakening.
In the ages Of faith men of
wealth and prominence usually
included the Church among their
benefciaries after DEATH Count
less religious monuments in the
form of churches, chapels, mon
asteries, schools, libraries, hos
pitfalls and homes for the destitute
of all kinds still attest to the
spirit of faith that actuated the
well-to-do classes of former times.
Foundations for Masses for the
soul Of the testator were also of
very frequent occurrence, and
many of these remain to the pres
ent day.
The faithful seem to have at
last realized again that the pos
sessions which God has given
them in this world, or permitted
them to accumulate, are but a
holding Of which they are merely
the custodians. Hence it is graft
flying to read of the numerous
donations bequeathed for religi
Gus purposes.
If more people would but reflect
they readily would grasp the idea
that aims left to religion are {

creased blessings in the hereafter

HALTS A WEDDING
GOWN WORN BY
PARIS BRIDE Is CAUSE.

So exaggerated have become styles
of women's dress in France that not
infrequently do priests interfere and
call upon women to dress with a lit
tie more caution.
But what can be said is that in
more than one case priests in
Paris have refused to marry women
until they had changed their dress.
This happened quite recently. A bride
all bedecked in white stood at the
altar only to be told to go home and
change or alter her dress if she want
ed to be married at church.
1t appears she wore a white sd tin
dress the bottom Of which barely hid
her knees. She wore thin silk stock
ings. The top of the dress was so
deeply cut away, showing SO much that
the priest was shocked.
The bride went away and returned
few days later draped in a long
loose fitting satin garment which held
tight at the throat and reached hel
ankles.

BOLSHEv|KS IN j. S.
CATHOLIC COUNCIL SURVEY
SHOWS COMPARATIVELY
SMALL NUMBER.

Investigations conducted by the de-
partment of social action of the Ma
tional Catholic Welfare Council indi
cate that in the United States the nu-
merical strength of organizations
which may properly be described as
BOlshevistic is not greater than 120,-
900 or 100000. The department study
covers the status of these groups last
autumn. 1t is believed by those who
made the investigation that the mem
bership of these organizations has d.
minished meantime.
In addition. to the inquiry into the
number, enrolment, affiliations and
tenets of these Bolshevistic cOntin-
gents, the department of social action
scrutiniZed the doctrines and practices
also of various schools of Socialists
and investigated the "Plumb Plan for
the public ownership of the railroads.
The department absOlveS this proposal
from any faint of Bolshevism, and de-
clares it is not, strictly speaking, even
a socialistic program.

TO BE BORNE BY THE LAITY

In 1884 the Fathers Of the Coun-
ell Of Baltimore in their pastoral
letter warned that ''In the great
coming combat between truth and
error, between Faith and Agnosti-
cism, an important part Of the
fray must be borne by the laity.'
The joint pastoral issued by the
Bishops recently repeats the same
warning, and comments on the
far-seeing policy that guided the
former prelates in their stand.
Time has shown that events
since that day shaped themselves
continually around the sources of
thought, around the school. The
development of education within
the past two or three decades has
been enormous. Keeping pace
with this expansion has gone hand
in hand an ever increasing spirit
of materialism, a seeking after
wealth and the things of earth, a
complete denial or at least neg
! lect Of Almighty God.

BENSON AND SIMS
SECRETARY DANIELS PRAISES
STURDY AMERICANlSM OF
CATHOLIC ADMIRAL BENSON.

Secretary of the Navy Daniels told
the senate naval investigating COM
mittee that Admiral Sims ''aspired to
become a member of the British Ad
miralty and wrote complainingly when
the American government declined to
permit him to accept such a tender by
the king of England
Daniels also declared that Sims
placed protection of merchant ship
ping as the main operation of our
forces abroad, failing to appreciate
that the protection of transports carry
ing troops to France was the para
mount naval duty"
Secretary Daniels said that Admiral
Sims title, commander of American
naval forces in European waters" was
misleading. CAS- all our ships in Brit
ish waters were operated by British
officers, he was subdirector of naval
operations under Admiral Benson,
rather than commander of forces
afoat"
"Sims," added Daniels, "genuf1ected
so before the British Admiralty ideas
and accepted British ideas so fully
and coveted British honors SO earn
estly, that he came to regard as anti
British such a rugged American as
Admiral Benson, who is all American
neither pro nor anti with reference
to any other country"

10 the honor of our Catholic
people let it be said that to a
great extent they have realized
the necessity of religious training
for their children. For this pur-
pose willingly have they sacrificed
themselves to enable our schools
to continue and to enlarge their
educational activities. While the
secular institutions have been
completely undermined by ma
terialistic tendencies and the
blight of infdelity, the Catholic
school has succeeded in grounding
our youth in the principles Of
Christianity. The result has ap-
peared in the strength of lay
societies and organizations, the
growth of parishes, and the gen
eral interest manifested IN works
of religion and charity.
/: Today more than ever before
the Catholic school stands in need
of support. Not that the tinan-
cial basis is in danger, but the
violence and the frequency Of the
attacks made upon our schools
necessitates the undivided and
loyal cooperation of every Cath
Ollie towards all that makes for
the maintenance and upbuildlng
of the system created at such cost
by clergy and people.
This is the burden that must be
borne by the laity, this the duty
which lies upon every Catholic, to
lend his moral and effective inter
est in the welfare of Catholic edu-
cation For when all is said and
done the Catholic school today is
the staumchest bulwark against
the inrOads of socialism and athe-
ism, as we'll as all other subver-
sive tendencies, that the nation
can boast.

THE SIX BISHOPS.

On May 10, 1910, just ten years
ago, st. Paul witnessed a specta-
Gle rarely if ever seen in this coun-
try. On that suspicious date the
late Most Reverend John Ireland
consecrated six priests who had
been elevated to the high dignity
of Bishops in the Church OF God.
The occasion was memorable both
because of the unusual scene en-
acted and because OF the eminent
qualities of the recipients Of epls-
copal honors. The men thus chosen
and their respective fields OF labor
were the following:
Rt. Rev. Vincent Wehrle, q. ).
b., Bishop of Bismarck, n. d.
Ri, Rev. Timothy Corbett, Bish-
op of Crookston, MINI.
Rt. Rev. p. r. Hebron, Bishop
of Winona, MINI.
Rt. Rev. James O'Reilly, Bishop
of Fargo. \. ID.
rRt. Rev. Joseph F. Busch, Bish-
op Of Lead, S. d. (Now of st.
CLOUDY
Ri. Rev. John J. Lawler, Aux
iliary Bishop Of St. Paul, now
Bishop of Lead.
During the first decade of
years that have passed since that
solemn May day these revered
prelates have amply justified the
confidence of Mother Church
in their zeal, energy and ability.
Religion in this Northwest has
waxed strong and virile. lnsti-
tutions of various kinds have come
into being due to the fostering
care and solicitude of these six
Bishops. The laity has been
strengthened and fortified in the
faith, the number Of priests has
grown apace, and the whole north
west region has taken on an air OF
settled, confident and vigorous
Catholicity.
The Catholic Bulletin on this
eventful anniversary tenders tc
each and every one of the eminent
prelates the sincerest Fluctuations
with the added and cordial hope
that they may long be spared tc
continue and to perfect the noble
work for God and country which
they have so valiantly championeC
in the past.

Marriage REHEARSALS
CHURCH REHEARSALS ARE DE-
CLARED ABUSE ARCHBISHOP
SHAW MAKES PLEA FOR RES
TORATlON OF NUPTIAL MASS.
Father Hughes Address.

Criticism Of marriage rehearsals in
church and approval of the action of
pastors who refuse to permit this
practice are voiced by Archbishop J.
W. Shaw Of New Orleans in his latest
pastoral letter Archbishop Shaw
also calls the attention Of pastors to
the tendency among Catholics to have
evening marriage ceremonies and to
the extravaganza of decorations and
other frivolities which accompany
them These, he declares, are con-
trary to the positive prohibition of the
Church.
After pointing out the Church s
solicitude to obtain special blessings
on the marriages of her children at
nuptial Mass, Archbishop Shaw said:
But, alas, like some other Catholic
traditions of the ages of faith, this
beautiful ceremony of the nuptial
Mass is rapidly giving way to the
evening, or so-called society marriage
On such occasions the sane
tuary is often transformed into q
flower garden variegated with the
garish display of many electric lights
And to offset this eXtravagant decora
ton, which serves merely to iattel
the vanity of the bridal party and theil
relatives, the choir must be lowered
to the level of an ordinary theate1
orchestra to discourse suggestive
operate airs and a medley of trivia
and sensuous music. And all this
contrary to the positive prohibition o
| the Church.
But we have not yet come. to TIL
end of the 'abomination of desolaticn
We confess that we are at loss a
to how we should characterize tn
brazen immodesty of dress with whicl
the bridal party and their friend

presence the very angels are nc

An INDIAN SAINT
HOPE FOR CANONIZATION OF
SAINTED MOHAWK MAIDEN.

Kateri Tekakwaitha, a Mohawk In
dian maiden, seems certain to be the
first native North American Saint.
The prospect of Tekakwaitha's can
onization is frightened by the eleva-
ton of Joan of Arc, Margaret Mary
Alacoque and Gabriel DELI Addolorata
to the honors of the altar. Those
who have been urging the canoniza-
ton of the Lilly of the Mohawks,' as
this young Indian maiden has come
to be known, are trustful that there
will be generous support OF her
cause, which has languished for want
of funds with which to meet the ex-
penSe Of taking testimony.
Monsignor William H. Ketcham, di-
rector Of the Bureau of Catholic In
dian Missions, hopes for the early can
onizatiOn of Tekakwaitha, so that the
Indians of this cOuntry-of whom
about 100000 are Catholics-may
have the privilege of generating one
of their own people.

FAIR TO GERMANS

POSED TO PERSECUTION OF
GERMAN FELLOW CITIZENS.

Australians leading Catholic news
paper, the Catholic Press, of Sydney,
N. S. W., declares that it is "entirely
opposed to the persecution OF German
Australians.' In view of the. fact that
German PrOtestants were first brought
to Australia in large numbers to coun-
teract Irish Catholic immigration, this
attitude is not only just, but generous,
says a writer.

T|T|AN'S ASSUMPTION
