THE DEAD CARDINAL
LYING IN STATE OF CARDINAL
GIBBONS PUT ON CANVAS.

(By N. G. w. C. News Service)
Types of men, women and children
white and black-who, without dis
tinction of creed stood mourning at
the bier of Cardinal Gibbons as his
body lay in state in the Cathedral, will
find place in the painting of the
scene by Griffith B. Coale, who is now
at work on the canvas. The painting
will be completed shortly and will
be placed on exhibition in Baltimore.
Mr.. Coale spent two days in the
Cathedral as thousands of people filed
past the catafalque on which lay the
body of the city's most distinguished
citizen. He sketched the faces of rep
resentatiye types of men and women
who paid last homage to the dead
Prelate. Mr. Coale's pencil has caught
for his painting the bent, gray-beard-
ed Jew, the old negro, the poor wom-
an, with head wrapped in a shawl, the
wondering face of a child. In the back
ground he has given glimpses of the
men and women of wealth and fashion
mingling in a common democracy of
sorrow with the poor and lonely.
The picture is pronounced a strik-
ing composition. The cameo-like face
of the Cardinal, brought into radi-
ance by the light that shines across
the sombreness of the Cathedral, Is
regarded as an exceptionally fine
achievement.

What is the "last abIution," and at
what part of the Mass does it take
placer.
After the priest has received the
Precious Blood of our Lord, some
wine is poured into the chalice; then
the chalice is purified by the pouring
in of wine and water This latter
is the second or last, ablution. The
priest consumes this wine and water
and then cleanses sthe chalice with a
small linen cloth called the purifica.
tor The purpose of the ablution is
that no drops of the Sacred Blood
may remain in the chalice
Why is it that Easter always falls
on a different date every year, also
Ash Wednesday; why does it not fall
on the same date, just as Christmas
is observed on the 25th of December
every year?
The date of Ash Wednesday, like
the dates of any other feasts, as Pen.
tecost, Trinity Sunday, ETC., depends
on the date of Easter, and as the Eas-
ter varies within the range of about
five weeks, SO also the dates of these
other feasts. We do not know when
our Lord was born, neither the year
nor the month nor the day. The Bible
gives us no information on the sub
Ject, and there is no strict uniformity
in the tradition of the Christian peo
pie. Easter is somewhat different
We know that our Lord died On the
sixth day of the week, and that he
rose on the first day, or Sunday. We
know also that it was during the week
of the Passover, and we can deter.
mine fairly well (although the exact
date is disputed) the month and the
week. Verify early in the history OF
the Church it was determined that
Easter should always be celebrated
on Sunday-the day of Christ's res
direction. AS Christ died during the
time Of the vernal, or spring equi
noX, it was then decided that Easter
should be celebrated on the first Sun
ooy IILCA IAC III 81 lull VI Iue
spring equinox. This equinox varies
within a range of about five weeks
and hence the date of Easter may
vary within the same period. If that
equinox occurred the same time every
year, there would be no variation in
the celebration of Easter In the sec
ond century there was very acrim
onious controversy concerning tn,
| date of the celebration of EASTER i
| became so heated that an appeal wa.
| taken to the Pope, and his decision
ended the discussion. At the presen
| time, there is an agitation for a con
slant Easter. It is claimed that tn,
controversy is long since dead ant
buried, and the reasons that deter
4, mined the action of the Pope seven
teen centuries ago, no longer prevail
The matter has not been proposed t
the Pope for any definite action, bu
it is being considered by writer's an,
liturgists in many parts of the world
Easter now varies from March % +
April %, and often causes a disal
rangement of the feasts and Sunday
of the Church calendar

GERMAN MISSIONARY UNION
REPORTS ON WORK
(By N. G. w. c.. News service.)

The annual report of the Mission
airy Union of Catholic Women and
Girls in Germany shows a remarkable
increase in membership and results.
The receipts for 1920 were $40 ,156
marks as compared with 124,532 marks
in 1919. The church ornaments and
vestments supplied in 1920 were esti-
mated at 1880 marks. Increased
interest has been shown in the Dia-
spora and heather missions, and 80
educational institutions have affiliated
with the society. Necessities, vest
ments and church ornaments, ETC.,
were supplied for large number of
missionaries leaving for Japan, Korea,
China, India, the Philippines, West
Africa and Brazil. About three weeks
ago word was received at the central
headquarters in Berlin that the Holy
Father had sent his Apostolic bless
ing to the Women's Mission societies.

RUTHEN|ANS IN CANADA
BEING AIDED BY EXTENSION so.
CIETY-coLLEGE AT YoRkToN,
SASk.-EsTA5LISHED TO OFF,
SET ACTIVITIES OF PRosELY.
TIERS.

Canada's great Catholic problem is
to stop the leakage. During the past
year the Extension Society had con-
centrated it's attention on the problem
of the vast number of Ruthenian inn
migrants who are likely to be lost to
the Church unless adequate Catholic
leadership is provided for them There
are 100000 Ruthenian newcomers,
principally in the western provinces,
and among these people the Metho-
dists and Presbyterians have prepared
to spend $1,000,O00 this year. This
vast sum is being used for education,
hospitals, home-schools, girls homes,
boys homes, newspapers and pam
phlets.
The establishment of st Joseph's
Ukrainian College, in Yorkton, Sas-
katchewan was the decisive step de-
cided upon by the Extension Society
to meet this situation The society
pledged $4,000 to this work and the
college is now going concern with
the Christian Brothers in charge.
The young Ruthenian graduates are
expected to be the leaders of theil
fellow countrymen, an Industrious, fru
gal and law-abiding people who are
anxious to acquire knowledge of the
language and of Canadian institutions
and to live in peace and the practice
of their religion,

MAY RESTORE ABBEY


Restoration of ancient Whitby ABB
hey, Yorkshire, England, a work. that,
it is estimated, will require several
years time, is being considered by the
British Government. The ruins of
this great Benedictine Church are fair
ly we'll preserved, considering it's ven
cradle age---fully eight centuries.
The church and monastery we're con.
iscated by Henry VIII and subsequent
ly passed into the hands of the Earl
of Warwick. The whole west side of
the monastery was blown down in
1863, and in 1880 the central tower col
lapsed.
The monastery was founded in 657
by Oswy, king of Northumberland
Among the famous monks of Whitby
was Caedmon, the Northumbrian poet,
who spent most of his life and died
there. Whstby is now favorite wa
tering place.

THAT LEGION OFFER
PELLETiER'S STATEMENT ON x.
OF c.'s MEMORIAL BUILDING Of
FER-FAcTS IN THE CASE.

Supreme Advocate Joseph G. PelIer
tier of the knights of Columbus has
issued statement intended to clear
up any misconceptions regarding the
Knights of Columbus offer of a
$5,000,000 memorial to the American
Legion and which was refused by the
Legion unless the conditions under
which it was offered were changed.
The Knights refused to change the
original conditions and, according to
Pelletier, will dispose of the fund in
vocational training and recreation for
veterans
Petlletier's statement is as follows.
''The knights of Columbus offered
ia Legion of Honor National Memorial
Building in the City of Washington,
the title to be vested in the American
Legion, and the entire control and
management, in the case of the disso.
luton of the Legion, the title to vest
in the United States. An endowment
fund of $1,OO0,0O0, the interest of
which was to be devoted to the up
keep of this building, was to be man.
dSCu NY iii &C *IAC ACdu IA
the American Legion, the head of the
knights of Columbus and the Secre.
tary of the Treasury of the United
States.
Their powers only went to the ex-
tent of managing this fund and pay
ing over the income to the owners of
the building, the American Legion.
The action taken by the American Lee
gion was to decline the gift of the
knights of Columbus of $5,000,000 I'M
less the same came Internationally,
and they admitted that the erection
of the building was condition; in
other words, the Legion would be will
ing to take $5,O0O,000 in cash to use
as it pleased, but declined to accept
| it if it was to take the form of a
memorial building.
Colonel Galbraith pronounced it
as one of the fairest, most upright
gifts he had ever heard of, and how
the story has gone abroad that the
Knights of Columbus were to keep a
hand on the building or its manage
ment and thus seek to manage the
memorial with the American Legion
cannot understand for there is not a
word of truth in it and never was a
thought of anything Of the kind"
