on any day at any hour that one wills,
the most wonderful pictures may be
thrown on the screen and kept there
as long as one chooses. In order
to create and recall pictures one must
cultivate and train the imagination.
If this faculty is developed the worlds
Of science, history, literature, society,
religion, take on new meanings, be-
come interesting, inspiring, vital. The
marvellous work of an Edison is one
of the rewards of a trained imagina-
tion. The great European war of
today cannot be even imperfectly
comprehended without an apprecia-
tive understanding of the past, and
one cannot understand the past who
is unable to look down the vista of
the centuries and see pictures of the
founding of nations, of men, so filled
with the idea of nationality that they
are ready to die to prove their loyalty
to and their love of country. Litera-
ture is source of delight only to
those who are gifted with imaginative
minds, those whose minds are treasure
houses of rare and beautiful pictures.
In our social intercourse with others
lit is not possible to be sympathetic
and kind and generous unless our
limaginations are active, and ou1
religious life is dull and cold when
the magic of the Imagination is not
its helpmate.

liz Archbishop,s sermon.

After the dedication High Mass was
celebrated by Father Ciebattone, and
the sermon Of the day was preached
| by the Most Reverend Archbishop
who complimented the congregation
on the beautiful and spacious Church
erected for their own use. He ex-
horted them to be devOut and prac-
tical Catholics and to be ready, il
necessary, to fight for their religion
as loyal soldiers of the cross. The
Italian people, he said, are Catholic
to the core and never cease to be-
Catholics, although they may become
negligent in the performance of their
religious duties. They come from the
historic land of the Catholic Church
in which the Supreme Pontiff lives,
and from youth they breathe Cath
oic atmosphere. They have every
reason, therefore, to be the best Cath
olics in the world They should re-
member the sacred religious traditions
OF their race and in America they
should show forth the perfection of
Catholic life by their fidelity in at
tending Mass, approaching the Sacra-
|ments, living upright and honorable
lives and giving their children, wher-
ever possible, all the advantages Of
a Catholic education. He hoped that
the new Church, set apart primarily
for the Italian population OF st. Paul,
would be an inspiration to them to
prove themselves worthy of all that
Catholicity has done for their father
land
Description of the Church.
The new church has a seating ca
pacity of six hundred and is large
enough to accommodate all the mem
bers of the congregation who, in the
past, have worshipped in the tenn
porary Church of the Holy Redeemer
and in the Church of ST. Ambrose on
Bradley Street, which was opened a
few years ago for the benefit of the
Italian families residing in that part
of the city.
For years, religious services for the
Italians were held i'm the basement
of the old Cathedral. When that ven-
cradle structure was razed i'm August,
1914, a place of s rship was found
