MEMS NATIONAL UNION.

The forty-seventh annual convention
of the Catholic Young Mems National

establishment of Boy Scout Troops
under Catholic leadership, the further
ing of the Big Brother Movement the
founding of Catholic Civic Centers
and the reorganizing of the parish
units were assigned by the National
Council of Catholic Men to the Nation
al Union for execution.
The reports submitted by the great
number of local unions from all Sec
tions of the country represented at the
convention exhibited progress.
The opening act of the convention
was the sending of a cablegram to His
Holiness, Pope Benedict XIV, renewing
the unbroken filial reverence and love
of the National Union. Fluctuations
upon the celebration of his fifty-sixth
anniversary were extended to His
Eminence, Cardinal Dougherty.

SACRAMENTAL WINE
CLERGY CAN OBTAIN WINE ONLY
FROM THOSE DEALERS DESIG-
MATED BY MANUFACTURERS OR
lMPORTERS-NEW RULING EF-
FEcTIvE SEPTEMBER 15-RULEs
Z CHANGED BY TREASURY.

Under ruling of the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue, approved by the
Secretary of the Treasury, wines for
sacramental purposes may be obtain
ed after September Is next only from
manufacturers or importers or their
designated agents. Dealers in sacra-
mental wines who have been supplying
the Catholic clergy with altar wine
will not be permitted to do so after
September Is, unless in the meantime
these dealers arrange to have them
selves designated as agents for the
sale or distribution of sacramental
wines by the manufacturers or import
ers. :.
The ruling of the Treasury Depart
ment, it was announced in formal
decision, is in conformity with an
opinion of the Attorney General of the
United States that the Prohibition En-
forcement Act restricted the sale and
distribution Of sacramento wines to
manufacturers and importers.
The Treasury decision, which was
promulgated on August 3, originally
was made effectlVe on August Is. An
extension of the latter date to Septem-
Der Is was authorized this week,
however, when the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue was advised by the
National Catholic Welfare Council
that sufficient time had not been allow
I'd to acquaint all parties interested,
particularly the clergy, with the
change in the existing rules.
Regulations indicating in detail the
manner in which wines for sacramen-
tai purposes may be obtained by the
clergy are now in course of prepara-
ton by the Treasury Department and
soon will be made public. They, how
ever, are expected merely to elaborate
the order effective Septembr Is.

A MEMS COUNCIL
PLANS TO ORGANIZE CATHOLIC
MEN IN DIOCESE OF ST. PAUL
REPRESENTATIVE OF VEL.
FARE COUNCIL ADDRESSED
ASSEMBLED CLERGY.

During the past week plans have
been made to organize a st. Paul
diocesan unit of the National Council
of Catholic Men. For this purpose
meetings of the clergy were held in
st. Paul on Tuesday, and in Minnea-
polls on Wednesday. His Grace, Most
Reverend Archbishop Bowling presid-
ed Archbishop Bowling, as is known,
is Treasurer of the Executive Com
mittee of Bishops representing the
American Hierarchy in National
Catholic Welfare work. He is also
Chairman of Education of the National
Committee of the Council.
Archbishop Bowling introduced Mr..
G. F. O'Grady, National Organizer, sent
out from headquarters in Washington.
Mr.. O'Grady in an able and convincing
manner placed before the assembled
priests the need and the necessity of
co-ordinating Catholic welfare work
throughout the country He reviewed
briefly the five forms of activity which
comprise the work of the Welfare
Council. These are the departments
of the press, education, laws and
legislation, Catholic social action, and
lay organizations.
The general plan of the National
Council of Catholic Men is this: The
parochial branch endeavors to enlist
every Catholic man in the parish.
These parochial units then are united
to the diocesan or district center, and
these in turn are consolidated in the
National organization.
Mr.. O'Grady pointed out some very
interesting facts. For example, the
question of immigration He stated
that during the year 1920, about one
million immigrants passed through the
port of New York Seventy-five per
cent of these immigrants were Catho-
lies. There were sixteen welfare
agencies officially recognized at the
port to care for one million i'm.
migrants. Only one of the sixteen
agencies was Catholic, and that one
was very poorly equipped to handle
the problem.
The speaker outlined many forms of
Catholic activity that must be main
tanned and that can be carried on by
laymen only. After considerable dis.
cussion between the speaker and the
assembled clergy the matter was taken
under advisement.

Within two or three years of her
death her book had been translated
into many languages and had passed
through innumerable editions From
all parts of the world, from the centers
of civilization as we'll as from remote
missionary stations in Africa, China,
the South Sea Islands, the West
Indies, thousands of letters began to
pour into the Carmelite Monastery at
LisieuX describing the prodigious, or
apparent, miracles, visions, cures, and
spiritual favors which had been obtain
ed by thousands through prayers direct
ed through the intercessiOn of Sister
Teresa. She, who in life had been COM

gan to exercise an influence over
others such as can be compared to the
influence of ST. Francis, ST. Ignatius
or a Saint Teresa. No more remark
able manifestation of Catholic Faith
and employment of the supernatural
graces of the Church have been known
in modern times. The great mis-
sionary diocese of Alaska was placed
under her special protection. The
same thing was done in the case of the
mission for the conversion of Wales
Countless Catholic institutions
throughout the world made Sister
Teresa their patroness. So great have
been the number of apparent miracles,
or striking instances of spiritual favors,
attributed to the power of Sister
Teresa, that special magazine was
published recently merely to record
these events Bound numbers of these
magazines constitute thick volunles.
These facts, and the ever incTeas-
ing evidence of the good done to souls
by the reading of her autobiography,
induced Monsignor Lemonnier, Bishop
of Bayeaux and Lisieux, to set on foot
the Ratification of the Servant of
God, Teresa of the Child Jesus and
the Holy Face. The documents of the
threefold diocesan process, concerning
the writings, Reputation of Sanctity,
and Non-Cultus, were delivered to the
Sacred Congregation of Rites in
February, 1911, and February, 1912
The Sacred Congregation, after ex-
amining the documents on December
10, 1912, issued the decree, "Nihil
| Obstat," which authorizes the con-
tinuing of the Process. On June 8,

DECREE OF AUGUST IA RAISES
REMARKABLE NUN A STEP
NEARER OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
IN ossCURiTY IN 1897, HER
NAME is NOW iNVOk Cd
THROUGHOUT WHOLE WORLD
COUNTLESS FAvoRs RECORDED
THROUGH HER INTERCEssloN.
The announcement that Pope Bene-
dict on August IA solemnly declared
Sister Teresa, of the Child Jesus and
of the Holy Face, Venerable, directs
fresh attention throughout the world
upon one of the most remarkable and
potent personalities of the Catholic
Church in modern times, says press
correspondent. The action of the Holy
Father comes as a result of a world
wide, desire on the part OF Catholics
for the elevation to the affairs of the
Church of a young Carmelite nun, who
died only a few years ago, utterly un-
known, but who, since her death, has
rapidly gained fame only to be com
pared with that of the greatest saints.
Born in 1873.
Marie e-Francoise-Theresa Martin was
born at Alencon, France, on January 2,
1878 Her father was a prosperous
jeweler who in his youth had tried to
become monk of ST. Bernard, but re-
turning to the world married Zelie
Guerin. who had also tested a vocation
to become a nun. Madame Martin
prayed that she might become the
mother of many children, all of whom
might enter the religious life. Nine
children were born, four of whom died
in infancy and the other five, all
daughters, became nuns. The young
est of these was Therese, or Teresa,
as she is more commonly known in
English speaking countries. From
the dawn of reason her desire to de-
vote herself entirely to Gods service
in cOntemplative prayer manifested
itself, and against the opposition of the
Bishop of the Diocese, and of many
others, she persisted in trying to enter
the Carmelite Order before she was
fifteen. So strong was her will, that
on one occasion of a pilgrimage to
Rome with other French pilgrims, ac
companied by her father, and acting
against the express orders Of tie
ecclesiastical authorities, she made a
personal appeal to Pope Leo XIII for
: permission to enter religion. Finally
she overcame all opposition and Joined
the Carmelites in LisieuX at the age
of fifteen. in 1888. Nine years later
on September 80, 1897, she died of con
sumption. Shortly before her death
at the command of her prioress, she
wrote her autobiography. This wa.
privately circulated after her deatl
among other Carmelite monasterie:
