"The officers of our unions, with
their control over millions of workers
are SO vital an element in our socia!

able them to meet the requirements
OF the time is Imperative" Father
Dletz said. Labor has not had fail
chance because, its leaders in general
have not been able to meet the well
educated, technically trained, brainy
capitalists on a level. This new ma
tional school will broaden them and
make them intellectual equals of the

KEEPING PEOPLE WELL
PROGRESS MADE. IN CONSERVING
PARTNERSHIPS HOSPITALS
RECOGNIZED IN LEAD IN FIGHT
ON DISEASE.

American and Canadian hospitals,
OF which those conducted by the Cath
oiic Sisters are recognized as among
the leaders, are given high praise in
their fight against disease, in letter
by Surgeon General Hugh S. Cumming
OF the United States Public Health
Service, to Matthew o. Foley, execu-
tive secretary of the National Hospi-
tai Day Committee, Chicago Rev. P.
j. Mahan, s. j., of Chicago, active vice
president of the Hospital Day Asso-
citation and Of the Catholic Hospital
Association of the United States and
Canada, is a leading spirit in the pro-
motion of the National Hospital Day,
May IL, which has for it's object the
education of the people. concerning
hospitals and hospital service.
These hospitals are called the "bas-
es of attack" and are described as
fortresses in the war of wars-the
war for health and life and against
disease. Surgeon General Cumming,
after giving his hearty approval of
National Hospital Day, says:
Familiarity with hospital work is
rapidly becoming of more Importance
than was foreseen a year ago. The
World War has for a time at least
ended wars of destruction-and it is
apparent that the great war to be
waged during the next half century
is to be one to eradicate disease, to
conserve health, and to lengthen life.
''This war has indeed already begun
and has not a few triumphs to its cred
it. Some of these are well reflected
in the annual death rate in the Unit
ed States, which during the last TWEEN
ty years has dropped per hundred
thousand of the population, for ty
phoid fever from 35.9 to 90; for mea
sizes from 125 to SO; for scarlet fe
yer from 1912 to rs; for diphtheria
from ABB to 14.7; for tuberculosis
| from POLE to 1855; for pneumonia
from 1905 to 1895; and for all causes
from 1850 to 1880. incidentally
yellow fever has been eradicated, and
smallpox, plague, and typhus are be
ing held at bay"

The Northern Baptist Convention is
out to raise $15,00O,0OO of which Mas.
sachusetts is expected to contribute
$1,500,0O0, it was announced at a
meeting of the Massachusetts Baptist
Convention.
incidentally, the following procedure

put forward as a suggestion to those
who are out to raise funds.
A certain minister, whenever he
asked for money, met with sad stories
about hard times and empty purses
so he delegated several of the young
people of the congregation to watch
the movie houses for week.
On the following Sunday he an
nounced from the pulpit that he had
a list of church-member movie enthu
siasts, with record of their atten
dance at the theaters.
Now said he, I'm going to read
the list. But-wel1, I'm going to give
everybody chance to pledge to the
church before next Sunday. Then
will read the list That's all there Is

DR.. John Y. Aitchison, general direc

The recent orders issued by the
Cunard Steamship Company, that pro

TOLERANCE OF CATHOLIC

colleges in the province and $4,000

bee, according to late census has
population of 100000, of whom
1,924,000 are Catholics.
The Provincial Secretary, Hon. A.
David, in advocating the passage of
the bill, expressed the pleasure felt
by the government in making the
grant to the Protestant colleges, add
ing that he believed that this was a
good answer to the charge made in
a neighboring province that the funds
voted for education in Quebec were
not equally distributed
Equally enthusiastic in his praise
was Peter Bercovitch. who declared
that if the Jewish people had the
privilege of having one of their own
in the House to participate in its de-
,liberations and to help in small de
gree in framing the laws, it was due
almost entirely to the spirit of toler
ance, equality and justice that had
been inculcated by the classical col
leges of Quebec in the minds of the
great men of the province. There are
10000 Jews in the province.

THEY MEAN.
(By N. c. w. c. News Service

10Y ~. ". w. V. news SerV1Ce.)
Catholic doctrine and the, teaching
of the Greek schismatic, churches are
cited by certain Anglicans who are
just now opposing the so-called min
istry of women" in the Established
Church. They are contending that as
such a public ministry of women" is
contrary to the custom of the Catho-
lie and the Greek churches, it should
not be permitted in the Anglican
household.
The question of women's admission

passe is that whereas one party would
allow women to speak and pray in the
churches. outside the regular liturgi-
cal service, there is another faction
that hopes to get something like a
priesthood for women.
The controversy is complicated by
the fact that those who support this
ministry of women do not seem to

It HAPPENED IN SPAIN
FAMOUS SPANISH BULL FIGHTER
LEAVES RING TO JOIN CHURCH
ATTRIBUTES ESCAPE TO MA
DONNA.

Ramon, the famous bull lighter of
Almeira, has returned to his native
town Of Sarria, reports the Barcelona
correspondent of the London Express
He has fought his last fight, and has
sent his little pigtail, the mark of his
profession, to the King as a sign that
he has given up the bull ring forever.
Ramon was face to face in the arena
at Almeira with d tremendous bull.
Three times the bull charged, and
each time Ramon lodged successfully.
The bull, already maddened by the
wounds of the picadors, rushed in one
last tempestuous charge at the in
trepid torero alone in the ring.
This time the bull got home. A
great roar went up from the crowd
as they saw Ramon caught on one OF
the horns and tossed into the air He
fell with a thud and lay still, uncon-
scious.
Attendants rushed into the ring and
managed to draw off the bull and
then, to the astonishment of the
crowd. Ramon slowly regained his
feet and stood upright unframed.

Does Catholic commit mortal
sin by not going to confession and
Holy Communion during Advent?
No.
Does the Masonic lodge print anti.
Catholic material in it's paper?
There are many Masonic papers;
nearly all the ones we. have seen are
bitterly and deliberately insulting to
everything Catholic.
Are Catholics forbidden to play
cards or go to moving pictures during
Lent?
They are not forbidden; abstinence
from these things, however, is advised
as conforming to the spirit of penance
during this season.
What are Ember days and when do
they occur? ~
These are days of fast and absti-
nence at the beginning of each of the
four seasons in the Church's calendar.
They are the three days, Wednesday,
Friday and Saturday of the following
weeks: the week following the third
Sunday in Advent; the second week of
Lent; following Whitsunday; and the
week following September IA.
May person who wishes to be-
come a Catholic continue to carry in

BORAH HEADS COMMITTEE
IDAHO SENATOR TO DEAL WITH
STERLING-ToWNER BILL.

Senator William E. Borah's accep-
lance of the Craftsmanship of the Sen
ate Committee on Education and La
Dor as the successor of former Sena-
tor William S. Kenyon, of Iowa, has
given little comfort to the advocates
of the Sterling-Towner bill which
would create Department of Educa-
ton, with secretary in the presi-
dents cabinet, and appropriate $780,
100000 annually as subsidies to the
educational budgets of the several
states.
While Senator Borah has not pub
licly recorded his views on the Ster-
ling-Towner measure, his opposition
to "paternalistic tendencies" in legis-
lation and government is we'll known
Whatever Senator Borah's ultimate
attitude may be on the Sterling Town,
er bill, he has not heretofore shown
sympathy with proposals to commit
the federal government to vast annual
OUTLAWS, likely to grow larger with the
years, and to an assumption of duties
and functions which belong to the in.
dividual states.

OBJECTIONS IN VIENNA
CAMPAIGN BY SOCIALISTS CAUSE
OF UNHAPPY CONDITION.

Apostacies from the Catholic Church
in Vienna are now several hundred
per cent greater in number than they
were in 1916 and are increasing. This
information is given in the statistical
reports of the municipal administra
ton.
The OBJECTIONS from the Church in
Vienna were 97S in 1916, and 1910 in
1920. These Withdrawals from the
Church have greatly enlarged the to

Underclyffe Auction
Sale Business-like
Continued from Page One

This morning the chief center
was this storehouse where every
thing from pans to double
bicycle were sold. This afternoon
the auctioneer changed his scene
of action to the broad veranda of
Underclytfe, the mansion itself.
Piled up here were handsomely
carved beds, bed clothing, tables
and blic-abrac.
Any sentimental feeling a cas-
ual onlooker might have was i'm
mediately dismissed by the utter
business-like atmosphere of the
auction. Parked around Under
clytfe were all kinds of cars, ev-
clything from the democratic Ford
somewhat homogeneous in the
aristrocratic setting-to Cadillacs
and Packards-more in keeping.
Few people probably glanced up
at the rocky, jagged bluff, mantled
here and there with white snow,
the cliff from which the mansion
took its name, Underclyffe. From
the road, as one approaches, view
of the battered rocks is cut off.
People did not stop to think Of
Underclyffe or where its name
came from. They came to attend
a Vermont auction sale. Some
came to buy and some just to look
