He began his studies the following

God had blessed him with an uncom-

part there was no lack Of diligence.

The Month of the Rosary.

October is the month of the Rorasy
which by order of the Holy See is re-
cited daily in every church throughout
the world from the first day of the
month to the second of November
during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
or during the exposition of the Blessed
Sacrament.
The use Of beads for q set formula
of prayers goes back to remote davs
but it is to st. Dominic we owe the
present form of the beads, which we
call the Rosary, and the spread of this
devotion among the people.
Like many other Catholic practices.
the Rosary was the outcome of the
needs of a critical period in the his
tory of the Church. In the twelfth
century the Albigension heresy was
laying waste the Church in France.
Like the Modernists In our davs.
these heretics persisted In calling
themselves Catholics Their errors
were injecting thousands of the faith
full. They denied the prerogatives of
the Mother of God and tore her statue
from its place in the church
When conditions looked darkest
God raised up st. Dominic as the
champion of His Church. The saint
had been accustomed to use beads in
his private devotions, and one dav the
inspiration came to him OF their an
propriateness as a means of overcom-
ing the enemies of God. The result
was the rosary or chaplet Of roses to
Our Lady. Armed with this weapon
he and his followers attacked the

The Faithful Parishioner.

Every pastor of a pastor. in the
midst of his own trials and cares, is
comforted by his faithful parishioners
They are the members of the congre-
cation who practice their religion per-
sistently, who frequent the sacraments
who lead Christian lives, who have pious
homes, who are generous to charity
who belong to the societies of the par
ish. who send their children to Catholic
schools, who subscribe for Catholic
publications, who have pew in church
who take part in the activities of the
congregation, and on whom the pastor
can depend when good example needs
to be given or sacrifices have to be made
in the interests of the filth.
Some members of a parish have nc
more to do with it or its pastor than
they can't get out of. and some do not
even fulfill their strict duty in these re-
spects. But the faithful parishioner goes
much further and in many ways shows
his devotion to the church and his re-
gard for the pastor. He is one of those
on whom the priest can always rely for
sympathy and co-operation.-Cath
Columbian.
