successively cOnsecrated n bishop, in
vested with the pallium OF an arch
bishop and twenty years after his or
dination received the red beretta OF
cardinal. James Cardinal Gibbons,
archbishop of Baltimore, today re-
ceived homage from iflustrious pre-
lates and laymen from both this
country and foreign lands.
The ecclesiastical celebration of
the cardinals dual jubilee opened
this morning with pontlfical high
mass celebrated by the cardinal
Archbishop John j. Glennon, of ST.
Louis, delivered the sermon, which
was glowing tribute to the cardi-
nails life and achievements, covering
the period of fifty years which have
elapsed since His Eninenee was or
dained priest in 1861.
In the course of his remarks the
archbishop turned to the subject ')f
education. expounding the Catholic
idea of the question. He held that
the aim of education Is the acquisition
of truth, as opposed to the view of
others that II is merely the obtaining
OF knowledge.

comes to the question of determining
wherein true education lies. The
Catholic idea is that the aim of edu-
cation is the acquisition of truth; the
others that 1t Is merely the obtaining
of knowledge. We hold that its cur
rleulum should include truth Cath
ole and universal, natural and re-
vcaled; the others that it should be
confined to scientific knowledge
chiefly of materlalistic order. We.
furthermore, hold that the impart-
ing of truth should be in the order in
which truth comes to us. and first
should be the first cause our Father
who is In Heaven, and after that
Whatever nature science or history
may tell us; preserving a unity In all
truths, impartlng and giving to that
education therefore a logical form
and development.
ut is on these broad lines that the
catholic educational system of Amer
lca has been projected and these last
fifty years mark practically its be-
ginning, its growth and its present
uay magnificent proportions"
