"Why do Catholic, parents. who cttcht to know bettor, handicap their rhilirfn at the very opening of their live? hy bestowing on them the foolish ;uv1 meaningless names we hear so offm nowadays?" asks Our Farish I'almdar of Lawrence, Mass. "One i an hardly refrain from smiling on hearing- a Leland, Sydney, and Leroy, t followed by a surname which leaves no ' ' doubt as to the Catholic and Irish par- ntage of the owner. With a Church calendar complete with a list of the most beautiful names, why need Catholics Cath-olics draw from any other source, in naming their children? -Many parents, in their attempts to be Yankeefied, make both themselves and their chilli chil-li (Ire i objects of ridicule." Woman Detention Officer. j Unqualified praise, says, the Ave Maria, Ma-ria, is due to the Knights of Columbus Colum-bus of Tittsburg. To their action the 1 juvenile court of that city owes the Appointment as detention officer of a i Catholic young lady. Miss Alice Carter, v. ho devotes her time and attention to the delinquent Catholic youths brought before the court. Miss Carter sees to i: that, in the disposal of these' young U veople. their faith will not be imper- I tied, but that they be placed in en- I vironments where both faith and mor- ( js sis will be safeguarded. To enable her io accomplish this thoroughly estima- bie purpose, the Pittsburg Knights pay Miss Carter's salary and expenses. The f example is one that may well be fol- i; lowed in many, places throughout the i. country. ' ' i: How to Stay Young. How old arc you? The adage says f that women are as old as they look ' and men as old as they feel. That's v rong. A man and woman are as old a.- they take themselves to be. Growing old is largely a habit of the mind. "As a man thinketh in his heart I so is he." If he begins shortly after I middle age to imagine himself growing I old he will be old.

As an earnest of real interest and work in getting up the monster Irish exhibition in New York this fall, the sum of forty thousand dollars has been subscribed and paid into a trust company com-pany for the preliminary expenses. The Ancient Order of Hibernians of New York City are at the back of the plan, and the object of the fair will be the encouragement of Irish industries, thereby checking the lamentable flow of emigration from Ireland at the present pres-ent time. Already negotiations are in .progress with many Irish manufacturers manufac-turers who will sjend over goods for exhibit and sale. Early this month William P. McLaughlin and Harry Pollock Pol-lock will visit Ireland in the interest of the exhibition and will purchase large quantities of cottage and factory-made factory-made goods to be fiald during the fair. The cottage workers will be given the preference, and it is planned to make this the greatest exhibition of Irish cottage industries that has ever taken place. Among the interesting features of the fair will be the actual operation of linen, woolen and carpet looms, spinning, spin-ning, lace-making, embroidery, knitting knit-ting and kindred industries by experts brought o-er from Ireland for the purpose. pur-pose. Amusements will also play quite a part in the exhibition. Gaelic songs t.nd dances, drama in Gaelic and English, Eng-lish, a magnificent military band, champion pipers, singers and harpers combine to make up a galaxy of talent tal-ent that will be quite an exhibition in itself. The net proceeds will be devoted to the building fund of the new Hibernian Hiber-nian Institute to be erected in New-York. New-York. JEWS WITH IRISH NAMES. There is an unwritten law on the east side of New York, says the Sun, among the. immigrants from Russia and the . adjacent regions of eastern Europe, that a man may change his name if he thinks it too long or cumbersome cum-bersome to carry through life in America. Amer-ica. Sometimes the changes produce surprises. Thus under the name of Charles Connor on the card of an East Side business man appears an announcement an-nouncement in Hebrew characters. There is, in fact, nothing Irish about this Mr. Connor save the name. In Essex street and the neighboring streets one sees on the shop windows among such names as Roinky. Fol-lovitz. Fol-lovitz. Shulumki, Levy and Cohen, the names of Burke. McCarthy. Roberts. .Tones, Smith. Baldwin. Green. White, Black. O'Brien and Penn. The bearers bear-ers of these . names are all of the same race. McCarthy has been for a. long time a popular choice on the East Side among Hebrew immigrants who abandon aban-don the names difficult to spell or pronounce. pro-nounce. Lately O'Brien has come into use. There are any number of Sulli-vans Sulli-vans and "Fitzgeralds. |
