Following it's twelfth annual conven-

Catholic Educational Association has
issued. with the approval of arch
bishops and bishops of the church, an
address to Roman Catholics of America
in which some important suggestions

All of the suggestions relate to edu-

upon parents and all Roman Catholics.
The association mentions the fact that
in all Roman Catholic history few
things ever parallel the liherality of
