propriate exercises There was o specia

l.. Brady preached an eloquent sermon
aud chose "Son, behold thy mother"
Coming into this world for the saliva
tlon of men, He gave all Ho had. In ad.
dition to his life he gave to men that
which was nearest aud dearest to Hin
his mother. He consigned Mary to BIT
the spiritual mother of all men and dur
ing the reversing centuri, Sol TN Christ
ians have prided themselves upon their
devotion to the blessed mother of God.
Holy church, has apl we'd of cc50tion to
tho mother Of God.
Superstition Is not devotion. Therefore
only that honor approved Of by the church
can be proper. We may wear the scapular
but If we do not serve God we cannot ex-
peGt favors through Mary.
Devotion to the mother of Col means
that we honor her dignity, that we have
great confidence in her intercessory powcr
with her Divine Son and that we love her
with fiial love.
Holy Church celebrates with dignity the
time when God placed her soul in her i'm
maculate body-Jhe Feast Of the lmlnac
ulate conception. She was tho mother of
the Saviour and God placed cnmity be-
tween her seed-Jcsus Christ and the seed
Of the devil. Christ was our Re-
decmer and her Redeemcr as we'll by pre-
serving hor from the moment OF her con-
ception free from sin.
In the world, we honor those who are in
