GOOD FRIDAY.
The Three ]lours.
The movement for the reverent ob-
selwance of Good Frida); is spread-
ing rapidly throughout the country.
Last year we called attention of our
readers to the meaning of this great
day. We urged that they use their
influence to have the Three Hours
obselwed in a befitting manner. It
is not too soon to ask them to begin
agitation for a spread of the good
work.
When the human race lost the
frieudship of God by sin there cost4 €
be but one Atonement. It demanded "1
Victim that would measure up to the
God whom it wouhl appease. The
Eternal Son offered Himself as the
Victim. The Sacrifice was completed
on the first Good Friday afternoon.
When the sun was in the zenith of its
glory He laid Himself on the Altar of
the Cross. For three hours He hung
in agony until the hour appointed by
His Heavenly F-(her had struck.
Then Chrlst died ant we might live.
Good Friday cans everything to
us. The infid, may not share our
faith and the Jew )nay not sympa-
Ithize with our love for this clay. Even
those who do not believe that Jesus
Christ is the true God recognize that
He was the greatest Man that ever
blessed the (arth-' by His presence.
Both infidel and Jew gladly pay tri-
bute to the sweet gospel of the gentle
Christ• They recognize that tie gave
a real "meaning to the Fatherhood of
God just as He gave the first im-
pulse to the brotherhood of man. ]f
we are a Christian nation, if our
civilization and institutions are built
on Christian lines, our profession.
ought to fine concrete expression. On
no single clay of the yea)" do we stop
in our ordinary pursuits in answer to
the call of religion. It is not asking
too much that our country give these
three precious hours to the comme-
moration of Him who gave His life
for humanity. Our Catholic merchants
,should be the first to show the way.
They should close their places of
business during those three precious
hours and Catholic people should ab-
stain from all unnecessa)w work. If
possible spend those hours in church.
Many of the churches have the devo-
tion of the Tre Ore. If we believe
that Christ is our Friend we should
not refuse to stay with Him during
His death agony.

presided over by the Holy Pointiff,
Benedict XV, in the presence of a

of the people, proclaimed the canoni-

The great world war has brought
out latent American force, skill and
energy even beyond the expectations
of t(; most optimistic, surprising the
home folks and quitestaggering for-
eign peoples. Here and there have
come to the front, in all lines of in-
dustrial and military pursuits, super-
men m t were, who gave of their
4tlents anti effms to the successful
issue of a moral exploitation of mast-
erly human endeavor. Press reports
have made us quite well acquainted
with some of these genuises along the
lines of stupemhlous enterprises, and
while as heads they came within the
limelig'ht'o]' lmblicity, they (lid not as
a rule assume to themselves all the
credit, but generally accredited their
success to the eq-operation of their
officers. This passing on of credit
due, and appreciation of endeavors,
cially, are studying German• In
,their opinion, a language that opens
"the mind to a literature of highest
value is a thing apart from interna-
tional quarrels.
Goethe, most bitter hater of Ho-
henzollern Kais rism, is one of the
four great writers of the world---
Homer, Dante and Shakdspeare the
'other three. To read Gothe in Ger-

FOIl TIlE CATIIOLIC PRESS.
Bishop McNieholas of Duluth in the
first circular addressed to his clergy
says:
"It is a matter of regret that the

years, ;is sotdicr and general marvel-
ously led tim French army to vic-
tory, drove the English from the soil
of her beloved land and for awhile
became the idol of the nation. Intri-
gue and treachery on the part of po-
litical enemies, unsupported by those
who should have been her friends,
and protectors, she fell' a victim of an
insatiable persecution, which was
finally satisfied with her death at the
stake in the city of Rouen. France,
in the year ]431, at the age of 19
years. Now her Church, for love of
which, under heavenly inspiration she
threw€ asid¢ all youthful fear and
miadenly conventions, donned the
warrior's vesvments and at the fore-
front of her ocuntry's armies led
them on to victory, gives her place
among the elect, and in the com-
munion of her saints, calls upon the
faithful to look up to her, to propi-
tiate her, with that endearing peti-
tion, "St. Joan of Arc, Prqy for Us."

On March 28th, the Convent of
Mercy of the Sisters of Mercy cele-
brated the fiftieth anniversary of
their coming to New Orleans. Be-
si(les the Sisters' excellent parochial
nd academy school work, the Sisters

boys, from 1878, when there was a
ino)-C, atholic organza.eros endeavor-
ing to found such a club. and most of
the boys were Catholic, until a few
years ago when other hands continued
their good work. From a rather di-
lapidated house in Bank Alley, the
newsboys home grew to tim( beauti-

astery. After the Mass, the novices
