ALTOONA'S NEW SCHOOLS
$23o,0o0 FOR CAUSE RAISED IN
THREE-WEEks,.. CAMPAIGN.

a remarkably successful campaign
for funds to build Catholic high
schools in Altoona and in Johnstown,
Pa, has just been concluded, and
Bishop McCort has announced the pur-
chase OF sites and his expectation of
opening the schools in September.
When the bishop asked for 100000
for this special purpose doubt was ex-
pressed in some quarters, as both
cities have suffered to a certain extent
from business depression in the last
year So active was the campaign,
which was stimulated by friendly RI
vaIry of the two cities, that in three
weeks $230,000 was subscribed, more
than GO per cent of this amount being
turned in in cash. OF this total, Al
toona contributed $128 900.
During the short time that Bishop
McCort, who was formerly auxiliary
bishop Of Philadelphia, has admins
tered the diocese, he has opened sew
cral new parochial schools and formed
many new parishes. This spring will
see the erection of at least three new
churches and in addition to the two
new high schools, ST. Joseph's Home
for Infants must also be added to the
institutions he has fathered.

Will you please inform me through
your paper what age excuses one from
the obligation Of abstaining from meat
on Fridays?
The law of abstinence obliges from
the completion of the seventh year
for the rest of ones life. 1t is the
law of fasting. i. e., taking only one
full meal, that binds from the time
one is q until he has begun his six
tieth year.

misfortune. 1t has greatly worried
me. What shall do with it?
Tear it up or burn it. If all Cath

would act in this manner, this all too
popular form of base superstition
would be done away with.

Why do Catholics GO and get abso-
lutte divorce and are still upheld as
good members Of the Church and 90

Christian burial? will see If you are
game to answer.
1t requires no great amount of cour-
age to answer so simple a question.
With the permission of the Church, a
Catholic may go before the civil courts
for the purpose of obtaining either an
annnllment of an invalid marriage or
legal separation in case of valid mar
riage. If those Catholic parties per-
jure themselves and induce others,
even their own children, to swear to
lies, it is difficult to understand how
the Church should be held responsible
for their sins, any more than it can
be considered accountable for the
drunkenness, immortality, or thievery
of other bad Catholics 1t is, notorious
that our courts witness wholesale per.
jury especially in divorce cases. The
Church does not condone this sinful
practice; she considers perjury NOR.

sentence except on the confession OF
the guilty persons. If these people
make bad confessions and sacrilegious
-Communions, the sin is upon their
own souls, not upon the authorities of

TRIBUTE TO BENEDICT Ky
GIMsEL's AID PLEAsEs- CATHOLICS
FIRM BRAVES PREJUDICE.

Generally speaking, subjects pertain
ing to religious beliefs are best avoid
ed by retail establishment when pre-
pairing its advertising copy, but the
recent passing of Pope Benedict XIV
afforded the Gimbel Brothers store of
Philadelphia an opportunity to take a
gracious step which could have given
offense to none, and, ON the other
hand, must have touched the hearts of
hundreds of the firms customers who
are of the Catholic faith.
On the morning following the sad
news from Rome, the Gimbel firm
took space in the Philadelphia news
papers for the following tribute.
The world is poorer when a
man of piety character, force and
power is removed by the hand of
the Grim Reaper.
Well may we pause in sorrow at
the passing of
POPE BENEDICT XIV.
While Gimbels may not have had
that development in mind, it can be
taken for granted that the members
OF the local Catholic churches viii not
soon forget the generosity of the store
in using valuable newspaper space to
express its sorrow over the tragedy at
the Vatican.

LAMENT PRIEST PATRIOT
CATHOLIC LEADER IN HERZEGo.
VIVA DIES DEFENDING PEOPLE
-lNfRoDucED EDUCATION AND
CULTURE.

Catholics . of Bosnia Herzegovina
have tears in their eyes for the pass
ing of Father Didak-Buntic, their great
franciscan leader, and fears in their
heart that his like will not soon be
found.
Father Didak-Buntics death came
at the very moment when he was vim
dicating the rights and liberties of
his people. He had just protested to
the Minister of War at Belgrade
against the inhumane treatment of
some recruits from Herzegovina and
Dalmatia who persisted from cold in
the lofts of a barracks at Valjevo, Ser
bia. The indignation felt by Father
Didak-Buntic at this outrage to his
fellow countrymen is believed to have
caused the stroke of apoplexy which
killed him.
Father Didak-B untic was born at
Pasci in 1871. This is a, small place
near Mostar.. At that time it was
under Turkish domination. When he
became a student under the Francis
cans he was sent to Vienna and sub
sequently to the University of Inns
bruck. Thoroughly trained and high
ly cultured, Father Didak-Buntic was
appointed director of the Franciscan
College at Sirocci. He was not long
in making himself the outstanding
figure among the Catholics of the
northern Balkan states.
As provincial in Herzegovina, Faith
err ,Didak-Buntic organized the priest
hood of the country, where orthodoxy
and Mohammedanism are always hos
tile and aggressive toward all things
Catholic. In Herzegovina the Catho-
lie curacy is exclusively recruited
from among the Franciscans. His
work is all the more deserving of
credit because in these Balkan dis
tricts the Catholic priest is now al
most the only representative of the
higher culture.
Only few decades since the coun-
try was shut off from western civil
zation. The peoples standard of in
tellectual and economic life was very
low indeed. The analphabets were
some so per cent of the population.
Thanks to Father Didak-Buntic's eff.
forts, illiteracy now is limited to the
remote mountain villages.

STUDENTS ARE THRIFTY.
UNIVERSITY OF NoTRE DAME
MAKES SURVEILLANCE PER
cENTAGE OF MEN PROVE TO BE
OF SAVING HABITS IN SUM-
MER WORK.

SiXty-siX per cent of the students of
the University of Notre Dame spent
last summer vacation working, and
20 per cent of those who worked
saved amounts varying from 500 to
$1,000, according to a survey recently
made among the students. Nineteen
students saved $500 or more, while
the vast majority saved between $50
and 5000. Of the 80 per cent who
saved nothing, many stated that their
work was for their parents who took
care of their expenses but gave them
no fixed wages.
A similar survey made last wear
showed that % per, cent of the stu
dents worked, and the falling off this
year seems to be accounted for by the
statement that work was not available.
The work done by the students
showed great variety There were
day laborers, section hands, lumber
jacks, seamen, walters at summer re-
sorts, ushers in theaters, chauffeurs,
automobile mechanics, blacksmiths,
clerks in stores and offices, stenog-
fapners, private secretaries, business
men and newspaper reporters. One
student saved $3.50 as a linotype OBJ
orator, and another made a commits
sion of $1,000 on a successful business
deal.
The investigation which brought
this information to light was part of
religious survey conducted annually
by the university for the purpose of
determining certain pertinent facts in
the religious life of the students. A
close study has been made Of the va
cation period in order to determine it's
influence on the students conduct and
views of life, and the university au-
thorities are making an effort to in
still into the minds of students the
idea that habit of saving is an i'm
portant part Of character Developments

BAPTIZED" A DOG
FLOCK RALLIES AROUND MINIS
TER ACCUSED OF MAKING
LIGHT OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
THANKS FOR "FRENcH FRIED"

Presbyterian Church circles have
been aroused for the past week as q
result Of the action Of the Boston
Presbytery, the denominational rul-
ing body for Greater Boston, whereby
the Rev. Edwin Curtis was removed
as supply pastor of the First Presby-
terrain church of Brookline, and denied
admission to the Presbyterian denom-
nation as minister. AS result, the
Brookline Church has quit the Pres
bytery.
Among other things, it was alleged
at the hearing of charges against Cur
tbs, that he baptized a dog to be a
"full-fiedged Presbyterian, and that
he was frivolous in saying grace at
meals, on one occasion thanking God
for "the French fried potatoes"
Prudence" with gravity and god
ly conversation" are among the bases
on which the fitness of man to be
a Presbyterian minister is Judged, ac-
cording to the constitution of the ma
tional body, and according to deposit
lions made by Mrs Ellen e. Davidson
and Barzilla Davidson, Mr. Curtis ac.
tons were not of kind to conform
to these standards.
That the action of the Boston Pres
bytery is not to the liking of large
number, in fact, majority Of the
members of the Brookline Presbyteri-
an Church, is evidenced by the fact
that 500 or 600 Of them have defed the
Presbytery and left the denomination
rather than renounce their allegiance
to their leader
