WHY is 1T?

The following question has
been asked: Why will farmers
build Il garage for his $500 auto
mobile aud let his $1,000 worth of
farm machinery stay out in the
weather?
Yes, why is it the case? Some
farmers buy expensive farm i'm
plementS, use them a while and
leave them out in the weather
about the lot and actually in the
field for weeks. Money saved
is money made. There, are sew
eral reasons why machinery
should be stored while not in use
One reason is because they are
valuable, cost money and not to
store and take care of tools
means money loss. Then a
good reason why tools should be
stored out of the weather is that
one knows just where to go, to
get his tools and will find them
ready for use. Many times when
left out a hunt must be made
weeks and months after last US
ed and then when rounded up
they are in poor condition and
valuable time must be spent in
getting them fit for service.
A good tool house is valuable
and very necessary part of the
farm equipment. In planning
the farm equipment the imple-
ment storage house should be
considered. 1t is we'll worth it's
cost.

THE CULTURED PAGAN.

Pllny the Younger, who lived in
the first century, gives a graphic
picture of the daily life Of the
cultured pagan Of his day. He
rises early and meditates on the
subjects that are to engage him
during the day. Summoning a
secretary, he dictates letters,
articles and matters of business.
He breakfasts at leisure, takes his
repose, reads and e~ntertains Wis
ltors. The afternoon is given over
to a siesta, more reading or con-
versation and writing. A ride or
a drive puts him in fine fettle, and
he is then ready for a plunge and
a brisk rundown. Resting for an
hour or so. he dimes with his fam
lily and friends, being entertained
the while with music, recitations
or comedy. Having fully gorged
himself, he is ready for the show,
a walk or any pleasure that fancy
may suggest. This is his life as
depicted by one who lived it.
Really, there is but little differ
ence between the ancient and the
modern pagan. Not a word any
where about the worship, public
or private, due his Maker. No
reference to those things that
Christianity teaches have an eter-
nal value. Not a hint of that
primitive devotion which human
nature, even in the most uncouth
state, usually pays towards the
powers Of heaven. All is material
and intellectual; not an iota of
spirituality, even in a pagan form.
Yes, the cultured pagan today
follows much the same routine as
that described by Pliny: eat,
sleep, pleasure, business, with a
little mental pabulum thrown in
to season the days repast, and the
pagan of the first or the twentieth
century ignores both his gods and
his God.

r E PAPER N

The condition existing In GER
tain foreign countries regarding
their monetary system may strike
one as unique. We learn that bill
lions in paper money are being
turned out in Germany, Austria,
and Russia, while France and
Italy are suffering from defation
in the value Of their standard
coins. Many people seem to be-
lieve that such a situation is
peculiar to those lands. And yet,
ourselves have gone through
the same crisis, even in our short
history.
During the Revolution there
was considerable gold i'll the col
onies, but the people boarded it
for fear of hard times to come.
The result was that each colony
began to issue paper money. This
medium Of exchange fell in value
until it was worth much less than
one-ffth of its original purchasing
power in fact, the country was
flooded with worthless paper and
the brightest minds in the gov
eminent were at their wits ends
to bolster up public credit.

CATHOLICS TO UNITE
TO FACE SAME ENEMIES-ROHE.
MAN CATHOLICS PLAN coALI-
TON WITH FAITHFUL OF GER
MANY.
(By N. C. w. C. News Service

(By N. c. w. C. News Service.)
Proposals for an alliance between
Catholic organizations of Czecho-Slo-
vakia and those of Germany as one
means of combating hostility to the
Church in the former country are now
receiving favorable consideration and
are likely to be carried into practice.
The Bohemian Catholics are facing
practically the same enemies with
whom the German Catholics have had
to contend, but the latter, by reason
of their long battle for their rights.
especially during the critical period
of the "Kulturkampf,' have become
better organized and trained than
their Bohemian co-religionists.
In addition to the movement To-
wards a coalition with the German
Catholics, the Bohemian Catholics are
planning a closer cooperation with
Catholic Truth Societies of other
countries, particularly France, Eng
land and the United States. 1t is con-
fidently believed that these alliances
and relations will be of great assist
ance in the fight which Czecho-Slovak
Catholics are waging i'm behalf of God
and country.

WINS THIRD Time
GOOD CITIZENSHIP OVERcOMES
EFFORTS OF MICHIGAN
BIGOTS.

Promoters of the propaganda to
abolish parochial schools in Michigan
by a constitutional amendment have
failed to obtain the requisite number
of signatures to the petition for sub.
mission of the measure at the next
general election, November Z, 1922.
The proposition will therefore be ex-
Guided from the ballot. This is the
third defeat that this proposal, back
ed by anti-Catholic bigots, has suffer
ed.
Professionals as we'll as Catholics
have waged a vigorous campaign of
education among the people of Mich
igan to bring home to them the injus-
tice of the attack on the private
schools of the state, and to make them
understand the heavy burden Of tax
alton the abolition of these institutions
would impose on the taxpayers.
All the Catholic Bishops of Michi-
gan have c~o-operated with one another
and with representatives Of various
Protestant denominations in the fight
against the professional bigots, who
have made the var on religious schools
a profitable business for the last three
years.

Alexander Hamilton finally
worked out a system by which the
debt Of the United States Cat that
time twenty-five million dollars)
would eventually be paid. By
issuing interest bearing bonds,
and placing a small duty on i'm
ported merchandise, the country
gradually began to pay its ex-
penses, meet the interest on the
bonds and finally wipe out the
principle itself. This system has
been followed ever since. 1t is
interesting to note, however, that
in 1862 an act was passed making
postage and other stamps legal
tender for all fractions of a dollar.
Thus the crisis through which
Europe is. now passing formerly
threatened to throttle us: but a
sound financial basis was estab-
lished and the country was saved
from bankruptcy.

YOUR VERY OWN.

One Of the most agreeable sat

his mental possessions cannot be
taken away by the force or ambi-

clamor and rushing and egotism
and scrambling Of lesser minds. he
remains aloof from the dust and
turmoil raised by greedy, self,
adorlng creatures. AS old
