attended and asked many questions
through a query box placed at their
disposal. Lawyers, doctors, teachers
and prominent people in society and
business were present. and the church
was filled to ovcrfowing every even

why Priests DO Not Wed was the
subject Of Tuesdays lecture. Before
entering on the discourse Father S,,t-

go to hear such lectures. as they know
already why Protestants reject Cathol-
lefty. The principles of Professionalism
are based on the rejection of the au-
thority OF the Catholic church to teach
