QUI VIVE?

with the extramural activities of
their children. The most impor-
tant of these that should be caxe-
fully watched is their companions.
Some parents seem to neglect en-
tirely the recreational affairs of
their children. Yet associates and
means of amusement arc tre-
mendously important in the lives
of the young. Many parents pre-
tend a great interest in school
work. Witness the large number
of mothers who belong to the
Parent-Teachers' Association. Yet
vast as the organization is, the
abuses in the school system grow
apace. Fine buildings and equip-
ment axe on all sides, but nothing
is ever done about real character
training in the schools maintained
by the public. Teachers must have
certain degrees and pupils must
obtain a certain number of credits.
That is modern education. Prom-
inent educators throughout the
world have laid bare its fallacy
but nothing is done to correct it.
Church authorities have warned
parents of their obligations both
at home and in school, but they
listen to the song of their own par-
ticular siren and refuse to respond.
The day of reckoning will come.
Some thirty years ago, some
readers may remember that fax
back, there was a dance called
the "Can-Can." It was practiced
in the worst dance halls of the
underworld in Paris. It was in-
troduced into this country, but
was danced only in the lowest
"dives' by the most profligate,
habitues of such places. Imagine
the surprise of some of the older
generation when a metropolitan
newspaper announced that the
Junior League had taken up this
dance. The notice in the social
column said that the girls would
dance the "Can-Can" and would
be Joined by the men for the
"Big Apple." The Junior League
is composed of the social elite.
Thus has the depravity of public
moral placed the seal of approval
upon the worst indecencies of for-
mer years. It seems that there is
no limit to human wickedness in
this age of abandoned moral
standards. The dances which are
Annual Fall
Fair Is Held
At Pocahontas
Pocahontas, Oct. 25.--The an-
num fall fair for the benefit oct
St. Pauls Church will be held Oc-
tober 27. Attractive features have
been planned, and the members of
the Catholic Ladies Club who
sponsor this event are anticipating
a successful fair.
October 12, members of Poca-
hontas Council No. 2443, Knights
of Columbus, very fittingly ob-
served Columbus Day by spon-
soring a bingo party for the bene-
fit of the Catholic High School in
Pocahontas.
The ladies of St. Paul's school
Auxiliary served a delicious
:chicken supper preceding the
games. The affair was a success,
socially and financially.
! St. Paul's parish is proud of its
ninth and 10th grades, which have
been maintained under some dif-
ficulty, but with the new interest
manifested, it is hoped that St.
Paul's will soon have a complete

and its work as exemplified in the
newly established parish at West
Memphis. Directing many of his
thoughts to the number of non-
Catholics who attended the serv-
ices, he described for them the!
work of the Church and its great
cause. One's first duty, the Bishop
said, was to God and unless this
one obligation is fulfilled other
good works are of little or no
avail.
Following the ceremonies, a din-
ner was served by the Ladies
Auxiliary Society of St. Michael's
in the school to more than 60
guests. His Excellency, seven dio-
cesan priests, five Dominican
priests, one Benedictine priest of
Subiaco, two brothers from Chris-

Nun Is Killed as Auto

Montreal, Oct. 22. .--Struck

Names of Jesus and Mary, was

She and Sister Marie Alcide

:when one of two automobiles in a
collision mounted the sidewalk
and knocked both nuns down.

tions for the bazaar to be held
