THE UBIQUITOUS AGENT
BISHOP HARTLEY cURBS IRE
SPoNSiRLE SOLICITORS.

Every few weeks, some new agent
makes his appearance in Columbus,
Ohio, asking subscriptions to .Catho-
lie periodicals and magazines from the
Catholic people, telling them the oft
told doubtful tale that the money is
to be used for educating young men
for the priesthood, to help some re
ligious community, etc. The agent is
also instructed by the local manager
not to go near the priests or say any
thing to ecclesiastical authority, but
just go right ahead and pluck the peo
pie. Bishop Hartley has now ruleG
that nobody is allowed to make pub
lie appeals for any kind of project
among the Catholic people of the Co
lumbus diocese, unless they have the
written permission of the Bishop.
this can not be shown, the appeal il
not deserving of support.

judicious questions find out whether
the man is already married in the
eyes of the Catholic Church or not.
If he is already lvalidly married, the
priest will then tell your daughter to
keep away from him entirely. Since
we presume your daughter is good
Catholic, she will never go into the
company of the divorced man again.
The fact of civil divorce tells nothing
about his state, because civil divorce
cannot break the bands of valid matri-
mony. What God hath Joined togeth
er no man can put asunder. If the
priest finds that the divorced man is
not validly married, he will advise
your daughter accordingly. II every.
thing else is all right, and he is a
Catholic, the marriage may be in the
church. Mixed marriages do not take
place in the church, but in the priests
house, unless there is very grave
| reason for acting otherwise.
Is it grievous or venial sin ts
kiss boy friend goodbye? coule
this be sin against the sixth com
mandment?
| 1t may or may not be grievous
sin. Many elements enter into sucl
an act besides the act in itself. i
could be sin against the sixth com
mandment. 1t could be a mortal sill
even in some circumstances.

Alfred Gardner, a distinguished

Gently contributed an article to the
Atlantic called the Twilight Parlia-

ing significant passage which is to say
the least Illuminating.
while his former colleague, Mr..
Asquith, studiously ignored the press
and would no more have thought of
bargaining with Northcliffe and Bea-
verbrook for their support than of
asking his butler to write his
speeches, Mr.. George lived in the
press world, knew every leading jour-
nalist's vulnerable point, humored his
vanity, and gave him knighthood or
a peerage as readily as his breakfast.

and made himself more nearly a die
tator than the country has seen since
the days of Cromwell. They are really
very few, but between them they in
fiuence the opinion and control the
news-supply of the nineteen-twen-
tieths of the people of the country.
They are Lord Northcliffe, whom he
made a viscount; his brother, Lord
Rothermere, whom also he made a
viscount; third brother, Sir Leices-
ter Harmsworth, whom he made a
baronet; Mr.. George Riddell of the

1t is great achievement. The press
