fess that no practicable middle course
has ever been made clear to me.
When one takes into consideration all
the facts of individual character,
training and social environment, that
enter into any divorces, however fla
grant, there is but one of two ways that
is just to all parties, either to ofiiciate
for all or for none. Personally l be-
lieve that the duty of the church is
absolutely clear. 1t should proclaim
the ideal by its consistent practice of
refusing to solemnize remarriage for
amy Divorce whose former partner
still survives.
This deprives no one of his rights as
la citizen, The state, which alone can
legally separate man and wife and
which alone determines the conditions
of their remarriage, provides the ma
chinery for their union to others by
civil ceremony.
Nor does the refusal Of the church to
remarry deprive anyone of his rights
before God. If the remrariage is NOR
Tally wrong, participation by the church
| does not make it right. If it be right,
refusal by the church does not make
it wrong. The right or the wrong
thereof is not a question for anyone
except the individual who is entering
upon the union. If the state declare
his action legal, God and he alone are
competent to decide the moral ques,
ton, and no other being in the uni
verse has any standing in the decis-
ion. If he be convinced that in Gods
sight he is doing right, then he has

given wife and husband the opportu-
nifty to be true under gravest provo
cation and finally to win back to de-
cency the offending partner. am
watching just such a case today. The
wife has endured torments, but she
sticks to the man she promised to
love until death, and l believe she
will win him to manhood yet. She is
at great sacrifice performing a mighty
social service. But what if she fails?
Years ago in one of my pastOrates a
woman of rarely brilliant parts, fitted
to grace any home as queen, came TO
me and said, "If l should secure a di.
vorce would you remarry me?" Her
husband had for years done nothing
for the support of her or her children
and had deserted his home long ago.
He was free liver, an neither of us
doubted for a moment his inhdelity.
then believed it right for a minis
ter to solemnize a remarriage in such
cases and said yes" We talked The
matter over. Finally she looked up
with an expression shall never for
get. and said: Il believe l will not
do it. l promised to be true till death
and l will get no divorce l was
strongly moved by her decision, told
her how noble felt her resolve to be
and promised to join with her in
prayer that her husband might yet
turn, but added that even If he did
not, her attitude meant the very best
social service she could render as
well as her own larger development.
1t CHANGED some year or two later
that l learned of her husbands DEATH
and was the first to break to her the
tidings. l shall not soon forget the
joy in her exclamation, How glad I
am that I stood true to the end No
one who ever knew that woman and
her work could doubt the social value
of her decision to the progress of
mankind
We live in a day when pleasure
and self indulgence make most insid-
ious demands. Society shows the eff
feet in a widespread spirit of lawless-
ness. If Happiness be the goal of
life, law has small chance. But
where cross-bearing rules, where the
good of the all directs mans course,
he has a form of conduct outside Ct
his will; in other words, law becomes
a real factor in his life. When he
identifies this ideal of the welfare of
mankind with Gods viii, he arrives
at the highest possible motive.
The Church of Jesus Christ does
well when it rests this question of
marriage and divorce with the Will
of God, "who would have the men
to be saved and come to the knowl-
edge of the truth
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-01-15

and follow me-" The way of the
cross. What is that cross? The other
mans burden. The Christian is the
man who practices the axiom, "The
whole is greater than any of its
parts" That is what brought Jesus
from heaven to die. God plus man.
kind is greater than God Hence the
Son of God sacrificed Himself, a part,
for the whole. And so must you and
7 if the ideal of Gods family is ever
to be realized in the universe. The
religion of the New Life, of Happi
ness, spelled with a capital II, is indi.
vidualistic, but the religion of Jesus
lis social. Its aim is not the perfec.
ton of the individual-else God would
have no need to have a family-but
the perfection of the whole. The per
lection of the whole of course, neces.
states the perfection of every indi
vidual and just so far Christianity is
individualistic, but the only road to
wards perfect character for you OF
for me lies along the line of subordin.
alton of self for the good of all. Mar.
garet Deland puts it well in the motto
of her two works, THE Awakening OF
Helen Ritchie," and THE Iron
Women" mo one ror his own happi-
ness has a right to do a thing which
will lnjure an ideal by which the rest
of us live"
This bit of philosophy holds the key
to this entire question of marriage
and divorce. If the aim of marriage
be happiness, there is no escape from
the meaning of the advocates of the
New Life. Divorce must be made
free and the monogamic family must
go. BIT if marriage be, as we find it
to he IN our discussion of some weeks
ago, an institution sacred to society
and possessing incalculable possibili-
ties for upbuilding mankind, then the
man and woman who have honestly
contracted it must think first of So
ciety's welfare before they separate.
The Catholic church calls marriage a
sacrament. it is right. 1t Is God s
and society's sacredest institution
outside of the relation of God and Ills
child. The duty of the churc2 is to
help husband and wife to know each
other and to bear with one another,
20 carry each the others burdens, to
be just, content and patient, to re-
spect one anothers rights and to re-
deem each the other from sin. Fur
Their than this the church should de-
mand of the state laws which shall
tend to prevent unfortunate mar
riages, and which shall enforce mu-
tual rights within the home.
The whole tendency of freer III
vorce is to accentuate differences be-
tween husband and wife and make
adjustment difficult, if not impossible
But in a home where father and
mother have been taught to believe
that divorce is unthinkable, causes
even so serious as confirmed drunk
enness, cruelty and infiedlity have

not condemn them as sinful If it dis.
eliminates it does. 1t merely declines
to cloak the truth, which everybody
knows, most of all those who enter
into such unions, that they are the
aftermath of social failure and that
as such, however blessed their out
come may be. they are not the ideal
for society, Thank God it is possible
in such marriages for husband ami
wife, either one or both taught by pre-
vious experience of sorrow, so to con
secrate their united life to God, so TO
be true to the ideal of the pure family
that their home both shall daily ex-
hibit Gods sanction upon their union
and shall lay society lastingly in their
debt
But the church's duty in this per
picking social question does not end
with non-participation No one can
today read the literature so freely be-
ing spread before the eyes of all
classes without realizing the gravity
for society of the new theories of mar
riage that directly antagonize Chris
tan teaching and influence. The fight
resolves itself into fundamental diff
ferences in the conception Of life and
goes to the root of human character
and personality. 1t is a conflict
between the ancient Greek and the
Christian ideals. The Greek ideal
of life is self realization. The new
Graecism comes to man robbed of its
! crudeness by centuries of Christian
thought. 1t is wonderfully attractive
Its motto is complete and harmonious
training of every power of the indiyid-
ual in the upbuilding of character
Much of the teaching has the Chris
tan ring. Its talisman is happiness.
A man has a right to happiness is its
| fundamental axiom. Happiness comes
! from saying not MOI to self but yes
to self. You may have to say mo"
sometimes because you must live in
society and hence must respect 9th
ers' rights, but that form of exercise
will develop your social self, hence,
after all, it is saying yes to your
larger personality. The highest form
of happiness is love, love between
man and woman. Nothing must he
allowed to interfere with this. Mar
riage must be entirely subordinate
If you chance to make a mistake in
marrying, where you supposed you
! loved but later find out the error, or
of forced into a marriage, or if, after
marriage love dies, or is murdered by
i'll treatment, divorce is your right.
Hence the state should make divorce
perfectly free at the request of either
party and provide for the stranded
children. That, in brief, is the plea
of the advocates of the New Life. 1t
is enforced by these devotees with
unusual power and attractiveness. 1t
is impossible to meet their arguments
or their spirit by any plea other than
the word of Christ-'lf any man
would come after me, let him say nc
to self, and take up his cross daily

ST. JOSEPH NoVITlATE OPENED.

The new st. Joseph Novitiate erect
ed on Randolph Street, adjoining the
College of st. Catherine, was formally
opened and blessed on Thursday, the
first of August. On the previous day
the eighty postulants and novices were
transferred from st. Joseph's Academy
to the new building which will hence
forth be the novitiate of the Sisters
of st. Joseph for the Province of St.
Paul. On Friday morning the Most
Reverend Archbishop Ireland cele-
DRAFTED the first Mass in the new
NoVitiate and afterwards blessed the
institution, dedicating it to it's sacred
uses.
It is a remarkable coincidence that
August l, the date of the formal
opening of the St. Joseph Novitiate,
was the forty-ninth anniversary of
the opening of St. Joseph's Academy
in this city which has since been the
Motherhouse of the Order in the
Northwest. The golden jubilee of the
St. Joseph's Academy will be cele-
brated next year.
In the new Novitiate, as in the old
one at st. Joseph's Academy, the
young women who aspire to member
ship in the Sisterhood of st. Joseph
will be trained for their future work
under the direction of the Mistress of
Novices. 1t is a school wherein they
are educated in the principles of the
religious life, as we'll as prepared for
the kind of work to which they will
afterwards devote their lives. This
training extends over period of two
years before they make their profession
in the Order Prior to that time they
spend some months as postulants be-
fore they are clothed with the habit
of the Sisterhood.
