The relations OF Catholic Societies to the
Church are occupying good deal of attention
lately, and as the following extract from 9
pastoral lately issued by the Right Rev. Bishop
Ryan of Buffalo contains very good roles, it
deserves q wide circulation. These societies,
| whether Temperance, Beneficial or Literary,
are becoming numerous. and as they may and
do exercise influence, the conditions on which
they are recognized are very important to be
known. Bishop Ryan says:
These various organizations mi az be to wsr
OF strength to the Church, of immense advaa-
tage TO the local pastor, and the onRreRetionD
to which they are attached, mutual support
encouragement and edticHCion to their own
members, provided always a good spirit ami
mate them, and they be Catholic in deed and
10 truth. To secure this most desirable con-
summation and avoid all occasion of possible
mIsundsrsCaudIDgs, deem il most useful, if
not indeed absolutely necessary, To define the
relations of Catholic Societies tn the Church
