VISHEVISK SPREAD THROUGH COLLEGES ' 80 Father Sullivan Asserts in Stirring Talk to Congregation 1n an eloquent sermon delivered in 8t. Joseph’'s church yesterday morn- ing, Rev. J. Leo Sullivan laid much of the blame for the spread of Bolshe- vism in this country and other coun- tries to American college professors ot anti-American tendencies, He cited the case of a well known Boston prod- igy who some years after receiving his degree at Harvard at the early age of 15, was arrested in connection with May day rioting. The influence of anti-American college men, the priest claims, had its effect on the young man and it was to this influence alone that he owed his downfall. The sermon follows: It is customary some time during this month to dwell upon the life and virtues of Our Blessed Lady, for Catholic devotion has dedicated to her this beautiful month of flowers and sunshine. It is a p tion, our rt of our Christian educa- thalic training to honor her whom God Himself deigned to honor since he saw fit to choose her the mother of His Divine Son, made man, Jesus Christ. Just.to introduce a little variety in the treatment af our discourse we will make a departure from the fixed method of procedure, and dwell rath- er on the ideals which are the source of this devotion than on the devotion or the subject herself. We will.see in the course of our talk | how these: ideals worked out during the great war, and from a comparison with other ideals draw our own con- clusions as to their worth and adop- tion as the real standard to guide our troubled times. Some ten or fifteen years ago cul- tured Boston, whose very atmosphere is redolent with the breath of intel- lectual strivings and literary accom- plishments, was dazzled with the bril- liant talents of .a. young man who re- ceived his degree from Harvard at the age of 15. This young man, son of a Harvard professor, Boris Sidus, not only mas- tered many languages but was ac- knowledged the mathematical wonder of those days. Algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, astronomy, geology, all these sciences were mas- tered in:a comparatively short period by this youthful prodigy. For a time this celebrated scholar was hidden from the public gaze. The other day he appeared with all the startling sud- denness of}a star shooting across the horizon, in .the court room of a judge in the city of Roxbury, this youngest graduate of 'Harvard, this idol of a great university was charged with in- sulting the American flag, with incit- ing others to.riot, in one word he was convicted of ‘being what he himself acknowledged he was, a Bolshevist. A few weeks ago at Boston, in the court room of a distinguished Catho- lic judge, 15 women were indicted for participation in the riots which took place on May 1 and which we all know were demonstrations against our government. These 16 women were either wives or daughters of college professors whose ideas were shaped to a great extent by the teachings and ideals of our so-called great American universities. Just a year+ago when Yale college was making preparation for the day of days in a student's life, graduation day, among the: questions which the graduating class‘took upon themselves to propound and answer was, who is the greatest man in the world today? The answer which these products of an acknowledged representative Amer- ican college gave to this question was so un-American, so pro-German that every prominent newspaper writer in the state, every loyal citizen, was up in arms. And well they might be for these young men were so impregnated with German educational ideals under professors openly or covertly in sym- pathy with Germany’s philosophy of life, that Wilson, Pershing, Clemen- S e L Taken by virtue o+ an execution to me directed, and will be sold at pub- Ho vendue to the highest bidder, at the public sign post in the town of New Britain 14 days after date which will be on the 5th day of June, A.

(c) Underwood & Underwood. ceau, Foch, Lloyd George and Kitch- ener were but pigmies, while the ex- kaiser, von Hindenburg and von Lu- dendorft were the world’s great men and the real super men of the age. Some few months ago on the poppy- clad hills of Flanders, beneath the blue vault of the cloudless Belgian sky, there was felled by a German bullet one in whom America, intellec- tual, literary America centered her fondest hopes and mightiest aspira- tions, a worthy successor to Longfel- low, to Bryant, to Washington Irving, I refer to Joyce Kilmer. This young man, a distinguished convert to the Catholic faith, with a wonderful ca- reer before him in the realms of poe- try and literary composition, left all his family, his beloved America, to bare his breast lest the pagan kultur of material Germany should supplant the spiritual ideals of our Christian civilization. Germany's scheme of education, her philosophical and scientific system, before which many of our American educators bent the knee, and swung the senser of adoration, has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. To such an extent have some of our great universities been honey- combed with the poison of Bolshe- vism, anarchism, socialism, Hunnism and every other ism destructive to Americanism, that healthy public opinion has forced a radical change in the teaching staff, and in the made- | in-Germany doctrines preached from ) the professorial chairs of these seats of learning. Search if you will the records of our American Catholic univ ies and colleges, when the fate of our nation hung in the balance; the pages are open and tell an eloquent story of un- divided loyalty to country and heroic patriotism to the call of duty. We find no professors compelled to relin- quish the chairs over which they pre- MANY SCHOOL CHILDR Mothers who value the welfare eir be without a Powders for N ARE SICKLY their own comfort and children, should Mother Gray's Swest for use throughout the season ¥ Break up Colds, Relieve Feverishness, Constipation, Teething Disor. ders, Headaches and Stomach Troubles, Used by mothers for over 30 years.

The scholastic system of philosophy which they mas- tered and taught others, their inter- pretation of historic and scientific truth, their standards of right and wrong, of duty and patriotism, were as utterly opposed to the rationalistic, materialistic and socialistic doctrines emanating from other seats of learning as light is opposed to dark- ness, as law is to anarchy, as truth isy to error. Their young nles were ot found among the ranks of ‘“‘conscien- tious objectors” nor were they mem- bers of any “pacifist society,” neither did they employ their intellectual gifts and oratorical powers to shout an- archistic, Bolshevistic doctrines from the house tops. On the sea, on the land, in the air, wher- ever Old Glory flew or was carried, their brains and their brawn bent on one task, to make the world a fit place to live in, to preserve their | beloved America from the menace of foreign domination. These ideals of loyalty and patriot- ism which only stopped short at the supreme sacrifice, filtered down through to the rank and file of our sturdy American Catholics. “To the nineteen of American Catholics, assembled to- gether Sunday after Sunday in the churches, their priests, in every lan- guage under Heaven, interpreted the commands and messages from Washington. Coming from their pastors who constituted themselves “4 minute men,” the message clothed with all the sanctity and authority which Christianity alone commands, produced the desired effect.

The compass of Christian- ity has been cast aside as obsolete; the ten commandments are ‘anti- quated’; the dogmas of Christianity are ‘fossilized. “This is the ‘stuff’ some of the advance thinkers day. Within the precincts of university, from so-called Christian pulpits, the modern progressive di- vines and educators are hewing at the very foundation of Christianity, and then some people wonder why we have so many prominent anarchists, bolshevists, socialists.
