\ CARDINAL GIBBONS,
X Talks ON DIVORCE


EHSNt WYNN
Divorce is one OF the crying
evils OF the day, in which the church
is vitality interested, Our stand is
unassaiiable. There should be no
divorce at all; It pleases me i'm
mensely to hear. that Bishop Green
and other prominent members Of 9TH
er churches feel as VIC do in the
Divorce today. and / say Il with
out reserve, is one great black spot
upon American civilization, It is
terrible, unspeakable, outrageous.
The number of divorces in the Unit
ed States in proportion TO the popu-
lation is the greatest in the world.
Think Of that stain on our escutch-
con!
The salvation OF society depends
upon the family, The salvation OF
the family depends upon the preser-
Walton of the marriage bond and you
virtually dissolve society. Only when
the senctity OF the marriage tie and
the obligations OF the family rela-
tion are more fully realized, and re-
ligious training In the family be-
comes more general, may we look
for better conditions in society at
large and not until then. .
"The great crimes and scandals
which are exciting so much comment
nowadays can be traced directly to
lack of sanctity in the family re-
lations. Il is not SO much marriage
but the saCredness OF marriage. which
must be recognized. Until then So
ciety can hardly hope to improve.
THE church takes an unalterable
position with regard to divorce
there can be none for any cause
whatsoever. II people contemplate
ing matrim0ny realized this and
found out beforehand whether they
were suited 70 one another, there
wouldn't be so much work FOR the d.
vorce courts.
Marriage is woman's destiny. It
is the aim OF her life. Her work
should be for her husband and her
children and her home. -
