TO THE PRIESTHOOD


Something says Archbishop Ire
land, lis wrong in Catholic commun-
ity where vocations to the priesthood
do not terminate and bloom. Either
there is in that community lack of
the true Christian piety which rises,
at least now and then, into the heights
of self-sacrifice and of divine love
where the priesthood is born; or there
is lack of that sacred knowledge
which leads and enables pastors and
people to understand those sublime
soarings of the soul and to aid them
in their upward fight. The diocese,
the parish, void of priestly vocations,
has never been lit up with the divine
fire which Christ brought from
heaven, and with which He 'Willed that
souls burn; it is earthly in its inner
life, in it's ambitions, in its aspira-
tions. 1t is the common unfertilized
garden where the common, the ordi-
nary plant or shrub may thrive, where
the fragrant rose-bush, or the white
petaled lily finds no genial soil or en-
liVening atmosphere.

PAIN AND SORROW.

Pain and sorrow give man the best
knowledge of this world, says the
Pittsburg Observer, for they show
that this life is but the threshold of
eternity. The young men, building
castles in the air, dreams OF happl-
ness. Pain and sorrow come, and mis-
pleasant anticipations are marred In
his sorrow, heaven, that is revealed,
brings JOY.
When God wills or permits that pain
and sorrow should cross ones path,
it is in order that he might cast a
brighter light upon life itself. Hence
the truth of the old saying in adj
versity the soul is drawn nearer and
nearer to faith, whilst in prosperity
the soul is drawn nearer and nearer
to doubt" The Centurion mentioned
in the Gospel exemplifies this. He
had a peaceful, happy home. With
him everything prospered. He mad
faithful and devoted wife God bless
ed him with loving children. His
household affairs had so engrossed his
thoughts that he had forgotten God.
Sickness enters his home and threat
ems to take one of his family In his
anguish he turns to Jesus and with
strong faith exclaims: Lord, am
not worthy that Thou shouldst enter
under my roof, but only say the word
and my servant shall be healed. That
sorrow had turned his thoughts and
affections from earth, and united him
fo1I orc
that He had not found SO great a
faith in Israel" and to the Centurion
He said: go; as thou hast believed,
SO be it done to thee" Sorrow, then,
is essential to man, in order that he
might not give his entire affections
to this world.
If the Centurion had no faith, in
his Affections where could he turn for
comfort? What consolation could
cold-hearted infidelity offer him? What
can they offer today when pain, sor-
row and anguish have reached their
climax? Entering the home that is
made desolate, they see the mother,
that is wild with grief, and whole
household inconsolable. Will the UNI
believer add or take away from their
grief by telling them not to look to
heaven, that there is no such place,
that their beloved is not there. Al
ready mad with grief, now their only
hope of future union destroyed, the
golden link which unites the living
and the dead severed, what remains
to cheer an after life on earth for
such persons? Nothing, and to die
is more preferable than to live.

ADVENT.

Advent is period of about four
weeks Immediately preceding Christ
mas. 1t contains four Sundays and
begins on the Sunday nearest the feast
of st. Andrew. 1t is time of fast
and prayer, preparatory to the worthy
celebration of the great feast of the
Nativity In the early ages OF the
Church the law of fast was quite as
strict during Advent as in Lent, and
in some countries of the old world it
is still more or less in force. In this
country there is no special law either
of fast or abstinence. The universal
custom, encouraged and fostered by
the Church, is to forego as far as
possible all worldly pleasures and
amusements, to give more attention
than usual to divine and spiritual
things, and be more recollected, more
prayerful and more penitential. Ere
quently in parish churches there are
special services during Advent, often
sermons on certain evenings or the
stations of the Cross on Friday even
ing, and these, if possible, should be
aCrendoQ.
AS Christmas approaches we should
make ready for good confession, pre-
pairing ourselves for it we'll in advance,
and on the happy morning of Christ
mas should receive our Blessed Lord
In Holy Communion with clean hearts
and pure minds.
The first Sunday of Advent is the
beginning of the ecclesiastical year,
as New Years day is the beginning OF
the civil year. In the Gospel OF this
Sunday and of the preceding Sunday,
that is on the first and last Sunday OF
the religious year, the Church calls
our attention to the last or general
Judgment She thereby wishes to con-
vey the idea that Gods judgments and
our final destiny should be the first
things in mind and the the last out

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. AMBROSE, BISHOP.

Ambrose was of noble family, and
was Governor of Milan, A. D. 374,
when Bishop was to be chosen for
that great See. AS the Arian heretics
we're many and fierce, he was present
to preserve order during the election.
Though only a catechumen, it was the
will of God that he should himself be
chosen by acclamation; and, in spite
of his utmost resistance, he was bap-
tized and consecrated. He rose at
once to the full height of his office,
gave all his goods to the poor, and
led life OF singular austerity, pen
ance, and humility. He was unwearied
in every duty of pastor, full of SYM
pathy and charity, gentle and conde-
scending IN things Indifferent, but in
flexible in matters of principle He
showed his fearless zeal in Drawing the
anger of the Empress Justina, by re-
sisting and foiling her impious attempt
to give one of the churches of Milan
to the Arians, and by rebuking and
leading to penance the really great
Emperor Theodosius. Theodosius had,
in moment of irritation, punished
most cruelty sedition of the inhab-
itants of Thessalonica. st. Ambrose,
regardless of his own safety, remon-
strated with him firmly, separated him
from the communion Of the Church.
and would not restore him until he
had done suitable penance. Theo-
dosius, who had many noble and gen.
erous qualities, revered him as the
only real Bishop, he said, he had met
with, followed his advice In all things
and at last died in his arms. He was
the friend and consider of st. Monica
in all her sorrows, and in 387 he had
the joy of admitting to the Church
her son, st. Augustine, who has left
us in his Confessions a living picture
of the life and work of the Saint, and
attests the miracles which followed
his discovery of the bodies of St
Gervasius and st. Protasius, A. D. 1856
He died A. d. 397, full of years and
| of honors, and is revered by the
| Church of God as one of her greatest
Doctors

A NOBLE VIRTUE.

Weakness, says st. Thomas Aquinas,
is virtue which implies loftiness of
soul For this reason worldlings are
usually wanting in meekness; for this
loftiness is found in them but rarely
and imperfectly. If they are not the
first to use harsh and discourteous
expressions, yet when such express
sions are addressed to them by 9th
ers, they resent and return them
promptly, showing by their revenge
that they have rude and ignoble
heart And so the servants of God,
remaining always quiet and peaceful,
though provoked by words or acts,
manifest perfect holiness of soul
superior to all rudeness.

call. Az opened the door almost
staggered, for standing before me was
little Willie Egan, one Of my altar
boys, his face the color of death, his
teeth chattering and his whole body
shaking from excitement and cold.

my arm around the little fellow and
drawing him inside, and tell me

"Oh, Father" he cried excitedly,
"a man was hurt by train down by

That was enough; man was

little acolyte in charge of the house

to get the Sacred Host. 1t was about
a mile up to the hospital, and as
trudged along through the drifts and
binding snow prayed for him who
perhaps would be dead before could
see him. On reaching the hospital
made inquiry and found that he had

poor fellow meant all right, but the
demon drink became his master, and
everything else, including his religion,
was sacrificed. There had always
been something about this man that
had attracted me to him, and as
saw him lying there my heart went
out in sympathy to him, for | knew
it would be but short time until he
4 would meet his God. When I first
took charge of st. Johns parish I had
made several attempts to bring him
back to his religious duties, but with
out success. AS | looked down at the

you to be of one mind one

gospel preached to them; and
blessed is he that shall not be
