Church and State.

IF our government is to be endur-
ing. it must rest on principles of jus
tice, truth and righteousness, sane
toned by recognition of supreme
being whose experimenting provi-
dence watches over the affairs of ma
lions and of men. There is no Off
cial union of church and state in this
country, but there is no antagonism
between the civil and religious au-
thorities. Church and state move on
parallel lines. The state holds over
the spiritual rulers the aegis of its
protection without interfering with
rights of conscience. The church helps
enforce civil laws by moral and re-
ligious sanctions. 1t is the duty Of
US all. churchmen and laymen, to
hold up the hands OF our president
as Aaron and Hur stayed up the
hands of Moses. cardinal Gibbons
