hours. He pleaded for the parocbiGl
schools.
H. WAS impossible he said, to combine
the SCHOOLS and please Catholics and
Protestants. II the Catholic version is
used the Protestsnts are not satisfied and
II the st James version is used the
Catholics are offended. II all forms OF
religion we're excluded the public schools
would not be satisfactory. Some
historical fact relating to religion
would arise and there would
be the same old trouble. II It were
possible to make Goddess schools the
Catholics would not send their children
to them The school should be the
supplement of the homs. The Catholic
parent wants to send his children where
th y can reseive religious instruction TIE
Catholic Church is compelled to- carry =
great load up steep mountain.
All the time an evil is trying to
destroy it's heart. This evil is the school
tax which the Catholic has to pay TO
