CHAPTER W. Of the book should make all Ca
.ho,Ic parents huuibly grateful that nothi ng.
a. vet, has tempted them to send their loved
,,d innocent children to the Public, goddess
.obools. We wish we had space to give the
remarks upon the daty of educating our
aauuhtsrs as women, not as men. "Women
are, not needed as men {; they are needed as
women; to do, not what men can do rs we'll
a they, but what men cannot do" This book
is tho voice of the Church to c atholic parents
and guardian to Catholic pfiests and pastors.
She alone has the divine commission to "teach
all nations" and she must do her work. She
Sslls M in burning words, that +" he who de-
apiseth me and will not hear my voice is not
Ahe child of Cod" And who are they who
aurn from her teachings end scorn her reproofs.
They are the same who turn from God and will
not obey His commands. Let Catholics SEQ to
IT that they do not force Almighty God to keep
HE word once spoken to such AZ fail to obey
His spouse; Because fRos hast forgotten the
law Of thy God, will forget 0y chiidres."

This little volume of poems is tho first OF the
kind which Wisconsin has ever produced, and
We feel proud that the fret Offering to the muse
has been laid upon the shrine of Catholic
literature. The poetry is flowing and musieal
and though the thoughts and expressions dc
not indicate high genius, they speak loudly Of
taste, refinement and Christian inspiration
Some of the loveliest lines are addressed ts
the Virgin Mother. and We quote one stanzt
from very beautiful poem on this subject:
