ST. PATRICk'S IS FILLED FOR FATHER
 SHINES LECTURE
Mans Yearning For Happiness Cited as Proof of Gods
 Existence.

In the second of his series of len ten sermons at St. Patrfck's church, last evening, Rev. c. A. Shyne, a Jesuit priest, took up the theme of mans yearning for happiness, using this as a proof of Gods existence. There were no vacant seats in the big at 7:45 Father Shyne recalled brief ly the first lecture wherein he showed that since there are beings that can cease to exist there must be a being that cannot cease to exist. The con- tingent exists therefore the absolute or God exists. He referred to the argument of causation and stated that there are few, if any. who do not grant that life was not always upon this earth; then must they also grant, un- less they deny that an effect can sur pass the efficacy of it's cause, and the nature, that life must have come from self-existent cause, Eternal Life, God
 No incubator can coax an ostrich
 or any other kind of bird out of an Ivory billiard ball. One piece of life
 less clay piled upon another piece of clay cannot produce life. From this
 argument he passed to the one based
 on the universal belief of mankind in the existence of a Supreme Ruler which cannot possibly be false else the
 human mind is absolutely incapable of distinguishing truth from error. Ex- perience proves that when a whole species constantly and at all times and everywhere tends towards an ob- Iject that object exists and our race so tends to God. As to Atheists it is hard to believe that they are sincere. Why are they denying God? Why are they prattIiug about His non-ex-
 zstence? Why can't they go their way: if God does not exist, He can do them no harm or no good. What are they afraid of2 Why so anxious to ob1iter- ate Him if He is not a reality? Do not their efforts to do away with God prove that He really does exist and that they are afraid of Him?
 ORDER OF PHYSICAL UNIvERsE
 The order of. the physical universe
 and the moral law written in the hu- man heart were recalled and the
 speaker then passed on to another proof of Gods existence which ke de- rived from the nature of the human will.

wills. We declare this often every day. "I WILL and "I WILL NOT' show that we are conscious of this fac ulty. This will we call the RATION AL APPETITE. It tends to good which is apprehended by the intellect. It is the faculty of love, living en- ergy ever in quest of good; and, being a living energy, it elicltss acts. We our soul, this will, is free; that is when all things required for its ac- ton are put, it can act or not. Ben Johnson once said to a metaphysician who was about to show him that the will is free faculty Stop: I don't know am free. My will determines itself. My consciousness tells me so.'-
 But our will like nature is linn tied. We are always, or rather the will is always. seeking for something outside itself. It is always in need rises satisfied with itself. It is ever desiring the good. The only thing that can limit desire is thought; but as there is no limit to Our Knowledge so there is none to the wills desire and we rightly conclude that nothing limited can satisfy it. The infinite good in which there cannot be the shadow of an imperfectfon is it's ob- ject It has within it's very nature and we all know it and feel it, a sub jective tendency towards an infinite object.
 TENDENCY TO INFINITE. Now what is the nature of this tea- dency or movement? The will we know may love virtue and therefore it is not limited to material objects There is in it a power of love capable of reaching out towards any possible kind Of good Anything good is for mally fit to be the wills object. Good as such, not indefinite good is the wills object; but good as suchs is infinite good.
 THE OBJECT IS GOD.
 Now this movement must be towards Ia fact that Is real, a good that is real, [ a good that exists; but there is no sufficient explanation of it except the infinite good that is real and that is IGod.l If this is not granted, human nature has within itself a positive con- tradiction and this would show hu- man nature to be an absurdity, where as it is a fact. If God exists the natural tendency of our nature has in him complete object and we are EcapabIe of a reasonable explanation If he doesn't exist you must deny the impulse of the will and therefore you must deny the existence of such na- i ture.
 The, lecturer drove home his argu- ments by illustrations from history souls longing for more than the finite that the desire is from God. But since God never does anything in vain i it follows that vFe are made for God and happiness
 1 The manner of securing eternal hap piness or .sWho can reach God, 2 will be the subject of the next lecture.
