HEIFER FROM LOWE & POWERS
HERD SELLS FOR $1255
AT WILLISTON

In writing of the annual sale of
the Missouri Yellowstone Pure Bred
Association the Valley Tribune tells
of the splendid price records being
made by Roosevelt county animals
raised on the stock farm of Lowe &
Powers, as follows:
'Lowe & Powers, local Shorthorn
breeders, again topped the sale, as
they have done for the past three
years, and TO them Ell ing the record
of selling the highest priced animal
that ever passed through the sales
ring at Williston. Not being content
to rest upon their laurels of the past
two years when they topped the sale,
two years ago with the record price
of S1025 for a nine months old calf
and last year raised the ante to
s1085, this year they boosted the
bet to $1255, this sum being paid
by B. w. Ayler Of Grandin, N. D.,
for a two-year-old heifer. In pass
ing we might state that Mr.. Ayler is
one of the biggest Shorthorn breed
ers in the United States and when
he purchases an animal to add to his
herd it is undisputable evidence that
it is top-notcher. Mr.. Ayler also
bought another two year old heifer
from the Mar-Car herd paying $1180 |
for it,
"The Mar-Car herd of Lowe &
Powers not only topped the safes in
the two instances mentioned, but al
so in five additional cases selling an

IRREVERENT CATHOLIC
- PAPERS. ~

There is a certain class small,
indeed-of Catholic papers that
pose as the only inhabitants on
the heights of Olympus and Par.
nassus. Their dictum is supposed
to sound the final word on any
and every question: to contradict
them is to invite useless and un-
edlfying reprisals. Their pet
sheer is an ill-concealed smirk at
what they are pleased, in their SUI
perlor manner, to style Official
Organs. BY this they intimate the
supposed inferiority of those
Catholic papers controlled or di.
rected or authorized by the
Bishops.
Now, it is somewhat difficult for
the average mind to comprehend
this insinuation, that is, it is diff
fcult for the Catholic mind. The
very fact that a Catholic editor
will allow himself to disclose a
Protestant viewpoint in the mat.

LOUvA|N COLLEGE
STUDIES ARE RESUMED IN AMER
lCAN FOREIGN INSTITUTION.

The oldtime American institution
of learning in Belgium, the College
of the Immaculate Conception of Lou
vain, after a lapse of five years, has
reopened it's doors to aspirant priests
for the United States missions.
In 1915, five students whom the
German invasion had left stranded in
Belgium and neighboring countries
found their way back to the house,
and under a minimum of restraint
and maximum of liberty, spent sew
eral months in it, receiving instruc-
ton in the professors own rooms.
They departed in the summer of 1915
before their hopes had been realized;
and from that time on classrooms,
dormitories, halls, remained either va
cant or were used as store and Office
rooms by the American Commission
for Relief in Belgium. They have
been splendidly fitted up again, SO
that, instead of showing traces of a
four-year occupation, they bear
marked signs of improvements; as
for instance, in the shape of electric
lights, instead of the primitive coal
oil lamps, in the students rooms, and
instead of gas, in halls and corridors.
The enrolment is not large-twen-
ty-four students all told-and they
represent but two countries-eighteen
the United States and six Belgium
and of the United States, but two do
ceses-Hartford and Newark.

ter, of Journalism and of Catholic
journalism at that, leads one to
wonder as to whether such an ed
itor is full fedged Modernist, or
a mere sucking infant in the
swaddling clothes Of liberalism.
In any eases the sneering at "of-
fetal organs" is direct affront
at the hierarchy which not only
supports such publications but
which tends to keep them within
the bounds of Catholic tone and
propriety so often vaulted over by
the. more "liberal' press.
While an editor may thus
provide an outlet for his peculiar
brand of humor, and Of antipathy
towards the Catholic hierarchy,
ne scarcely can be trusted as a
sure guide in matters that con-
cern the Church at large. He is
mpregnated with the liberalism
condemned so vehemently by the
Bishops Of England in a united
pastoral twenty years ago, and
he does his little bit to weaken
the trust and confidence reposed
by good Catholics in their spirit
ual leaders.
Needless to say. the editorial
critics of "official organs are
laymen.

The question of reunion of
Churches as opposing Protestant
and Catholic viewpoints comes to
this, pertinently explains the
/ "Catholic Herald, of India" The
Protestant Churches say: eve
have got into frightful mess, let
rs combine; and the Catholic
Church answers: "No, thanks. "
The Protestant Church abolished
apostolic authority, and her faith
ful split into $50 sects; she abol-
ished the sacrifice Of the Mass, and
her faithful lost the sense Of faith
aud religion: she abolished the OBJ
legation of going to church and
her faithful stayed at home; she
set up private judgment, and her
faithful threw up the Bible.
Whereas none of these evils has
invaded the Catholic Church, the
Protestant Church, alarmed by
the results, yet unable to retrace
: her steps ard undo the mischief
appeals to the catholic Church
and expects her to amalgamate
and Join her bankrupt concern
The Catholic Church is very polite
and sympathetic, but she is not a
fool.

MAGNIFICENT HOME, FIRST OF,
ITS KIND, PUT UP At STATE
UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-DE-
ScRIPTiON OF BUILDING AND
CEREMONIES.

(The following Will prove interest
ing to Northwest readers. The fact
was mentioned in our last issue)
The ten thousand students attend
ing the University of Missouri opened
their eyes Sunday, January Is, to find
that handsome new club had sud-
denly appeared within a stones throw
of the campus. The Knights of Co
lumbus of Missouri had put the club
there-entirely at their own expense
for the convenience of the Missouri
U. students, and especially for the
former service men attending that in
stitution. Columbia is a small town,
of barely five thousand inhabitants.
.During school terms the population
is larger; but the opportunities for So
cial recreation have always been linn
tied.
Two years ago it occurred to a
young man named Luke E. Hart, State
Deputy of the Missouri X. of c., that
ten dollars per capita from the men,
bership of his jurisdiction would give
Missouri U. young mems club that
Missouri U. badly needed. He made
known his plan and quiet drive was
inaugurated, with the result that in
the course of year the Missouri
Knights, while responding to Liberty
Loan, Red Cross and. other war drives,
gave $4,000 for the new project-an
essentially peace-time project. Hart
instantly felt for tenders on the build
ing, knowing that labor costs were
mounting. A st. Louis architect vol
unteered his services and designed a
handsome, compact structure.
Money continued to come into the
fund. Contracts were signed last
February and building commenced. If
contracts calling for the. same guam
tity and quality of work>were signed
today the building-cos would be dou-
bled. When $125,OO0 had been col
lected the work was rushed, with the
result that on Sunday a great gather

Now that Great Britain is pre-
pairing to meet an invasion of the
Russian bolsheviki in her Asiatic
possessions, it is timely to call at
tention to the fact that Article Y
OF the league covenant would OBJ
lige us to go to the assistance of
England in this emergency were
we members Of the league of
nations. Fortunately, we will not
be forced to send our soldiers into
the coming conflict, says the True
Voice. For that we can thank the
senators who stood out against
ratifying the peace treaty without
reservations. 1t is true that our
soldiers have been fighting the
bolsheviki in Siberia. But these
will be withdrawn as soon as pos
sible. We believe that Russian
bolsheyism is a form of anarchy
which is danger to all nations.
But we don t like the idea of fight
ing Great Britain battles in Asia,
even against bOlshevism. There is
little choice between the two
forms of tyranny.

POPE WANTS ORIENTAL CHURCH
REUNITED WITH ROME.

Negotiations between the Vatican
and Bulgaria for the conclusion of a

see and a nuncio or internuncio will
be sent to Sofia, are proceeding sat
isfactorily, according to reports.
With view to facilitating the re-
union of oriental churches to the
Church of Rome, Pope Benedict has
organized series of lectures on orr
entail questions, beginning January 49,
in the great hall of sacred music in
the Vatican. These lectures were in
augurated by Ephriam Raumani, patri
arch of Syria. Another lecture on
the program will deal with the Basili

A CHILD SHALL LEAD THEM

1t is noteworthy fact that the
appeals of the suffering millions
in Europe have been little needed
by the world at large outside of
America. The United States was
looked upon as the granary and
the supply depot, as well as the
bank, Of the world. True, many
Of the nations had their own prob
lens and their own misfortuncs to
consider. America alone rose su-
perior to barriers of feeling and
of space and rushed relief to all
alike.
Some time ago the Holy Father
sent forth an appeal for a partic-
ular class of unfortunates. These
were the innocent victims Of the
war; they were the little chill
dren Of the central countries of
Europe. While hatred between
man and man may endure, it were
inhuman to ignore the pleas of
suffering childhood whatever the
nationality, creed or color.
The response has been remark
able. The Belgian people, re-
duccd to starvation themselves, at
first demurred, But the great
heart Of Belgium, personified in
the heroic Cardinal MERCER,
quickly heard the cry, and the
Belgian children sent their offer
ings to the even less fortunate
children Of Germany and Austria.
France also needed the appeal a;
then Italy sentaher contribution
to the; little elmstren Of her re
cent foes.
Now word comes that the Prot
estants of England, led by their
bishops, have entered heartily
into the plan suggested by the
Pope Of Rome. They have COM
bined with their Catholic fellow
countrymen to do everything pos
siblc to alleviate suffering among
the children Of the central pow
ers.
This is a spectacle which only
Christianity could produce. 1t is
above and beyond the pagan
mind, unless Influenced by the
spirit of Christian charity. Yes,
a little child shall lead them to
open the stores Of their bounty,
and to dispense their possessions
to- provide food and shelter and
raiment for the little orphans of
war.
