In response to an appeal made by

lumbus have started a campaign
among tho 600,000 mombors to raise
a voluntary fund which will bo turn
ed over to tho Belgian Primate to
be used in the tremendous task of
rebuilding Belgium's educational
system. The news that the "Ca'eys"
had cnlUrtod in tho light which Car-
dlnal Morcier is gone home to carry
on against Bolshevism by means of
educational methods was made pub
lic by James A. Flahortv, Supremo
Knight of tho Order, to whom tho

follows:
"The numerous and very gratify
ing marks of sympathy and affection
extended to me at various times, on
their visits to mo at Malinos, by
many high officers and members of
your oiganlzation, prompt nje to bo
so bold as to appeal to you for tho
aid or your oraer in xne Bupernumaa

which faces me in Belgium. First,
there Is tho University of LoUvain.

outer uuiiuiuijs, wiw iuo vi wo
scientific instruments, are only a
portion of the damage done to tho
university by tho war. Duririg tho
war tho university was, altho.igh
closed, obliged to continue providing
for its professors and staff In Bel
gium, many of whom were in very
painful circumstances owing to their
hemes having been destroyed. Tho
expenditure v.-as onormous, the in-

Louvaln University Is one of the bul
warks of moral and social order In
Belgium tho only Catholic Univer
sity. It is a complete university
comprising all the faculties, medicine,
law, olvll engineering, theology, etc.;
there aro 110 professors, bealdes
the subordinate staff. If it is to
struggle on Impoverished and un
aided Belgium will be- dopilved of
its most effective weapon against tho
social upheavals -which threaten the
whole or Europe.
"Secondly, hundreds of school
buildings have been destroyed;

difficulties of tho war. I wl&h to
emphasl7e the fact that neither tho
university nor the high bchool3 or

of any kind from the State." They
are entirely self-supporting.
"I am purposely confining my re
marks to the educational side of our
reconstruction problems, ns I un

It eeome unnecessary to enlarge on
the absolute necessity now more
