Thanks American Hierarchy
MEXICAN PRELATE SHOWS APP
PROBATION OF AID IN LETTER
TO CARDINAL GIBBONS.

The following letter, signed 90
seph, Archbishop of Mexico has been
sent from San Antonio, Texas, to Car
dinal Gibbons:
Your Eminence:. The protest agreed
TO by the Archbishops of the United
States. in their last meeting held at
Washington, under the presidency of
your eminence, against the new con-
stitution framed by the revolutionists,
has so touched the. heart of all the
Mexican refugee Bishops in the United
States, that, in their own name and
in behalf of all Catholic. Mexican peo-
pie, they. consider il duty to pre-
sent to your eminence and to all the
! American Catholic Hierarchy their
deepest feelings of gratitude and ap-
probation, as l do also by means of
this letter
AS the Catholic Church is not a ma
tional corporation, but something
more than an international one, no.
body can De surprised that Catholics
of one country share the blessings
afforded or the wrongs suffered by
their brethren in any other country
whatsoever.
We have had many tokens of this
community of interests on the part of
the Catholic people of the United
States; and we were particularly
pleased when, in answer to their
pleading, without any suggestion on
our part and without any intervening
aims, the President of the United
States obtained from the first Chief
the promise of religious freedom. The
method adopted by the revolution for
fulfilling the pledges in it's new consti-
tuition imposed upon Mexicans is the
best proof that the Mexican Catholics
are not they who are to be blamed
for all the troubles of Mexico, since
they are the victims.
The attitude of the Catholic Her.
archy of the United States has also
consoled US, because it shows that
the SANDERS spread by the Mexican
revolution have not obtained the in
tended results; namely, of discredit-
ing the Catholic Hierarchy and people
of our own beloved Mexico
With my most profound regards for
your eminence, I have the honor to
remain, yours sincerely and grateful
~ in Christ.

ernacle? In that instant they sin
against the faith sealed with the blood
of Christ, and hitting the trail'' is but
an external manifestation of treason
to the pitiful figure that hangs broken
and accursed on the naked rood. Is
compromise the motive for attend
ance? What is such compromise?
How does it differ from an admission
that one religion is as good as anoth-
er? How is it distinguished from a
denial that Christ taught a definite
doctrine, died for a definite doctrine,
committed a definite doctrine to an
infallible Church which is to teach it
pure to all men that they may be saw
ed?
Why do Catholics attend Billy Sun
days service, Because the curse of
an irreligious age is upon them. They
have been seduced by the bewitchery
of folly, their faith is weak, their wills
weaker, their eyes are not on the
mountain, which is Christ.
There is need of men both in high
places and in low places to cry the
message of God fearlessly into their
ears, salvation through faithfulness to
1.-THE truths that Our Lord taught.
There is too much compromise; too
much sacrifice of principle, too little of
the sturdy spirit of the Master Who
died that we might live by the Word
which He sanctified in His blood.
Men and women whose forbears
were witnesses to the faith dirt with
error, forgetful that heresy is a hid
eous crime by which the sacred body
of Christ is rent limb from limb. The
ancestors of these folk threw all their
earthly goods into the face of the
devil, were driven from their homes
like leprous things and worshipped
God, in spirit and truth, under hedges
or in caves. But their descendants
What do they care for their most pre-
cious heritage? What does the faith
signify to them? They send their chill
dren to fashionable Protestant schools
and colleges, with the sad result that
the youth learn to blush for their SIM
pie, God-fearing grandsires, to apollo
gize for their religion, to appear be-
fore minister for marriage, to petit
ton divorce court for legal disso-
luton of bond which before God
never existed. History repeats itself.
The great-grandchildren of many of
our Catholics will be Professionals or
lagnostics or infidels, every one of
them.
The writing is on the wall; it can
be interpreted by the history OF the
descendants of Dominick Lynch and
Mathew Carey and hundred and one
others. He who runs may read.
And all because of compromise, all
llbecause of the spirit which prompts
Catholics to sit at the feet Ola preach
er and either act lie or sin against
faith. The whip of God is needed and
lit will come, leaping angrily from our
backs, and then nor wealth nor title
| NOR social position, nor aught else
THAT is dross will avail us. but only
repentance and courage in Gods serv-
lice.

the will of man at any time but the
holy men of God spoke inspired by
the Holy Ghost" Gil Peter /, 20, 81.
These sample texts establish the in
spiration of the Scriptures-that the
Bible is the word of God-as far as
they go. But they do not consider
the Bible in it's entirety; they do not
tell us what precisely are the inspired
books; they do not give us reasons for
including certain books. and excluding
others. For these points of belief, we
must have recourse to the tradition
of the Church and it's authoritative
teaching. This is one of the many
instances in which the Bible alone
does not suffice.

CORNER STONE LAYING

:
in the hearts of teachers and pupils.
At the close of the Archbishop's
discourse the choir of priests intoned
the hymn: Holy God We Praise
Thy Name 1t was caught up with
feryent spirit by the congregation
and continued while the procession
left the new structure and returned
to the school building.
During the afternoons ceremonies,
devoted ladies of the parish had been
preparing supper for the crowds and
large numbers availed themselves OF
this accommodation. For two hours
the ladies were kept busy serving in
the parish hall. The hall had been
specially decorated in honor of the
Archbishop who ate with the priests
at tastefully arranged table. After
supper the pastor, Reverend ]. M.
Cleary, entertained the Archbishop
and the priests in the library of the
parish residence. In addition to those
mentioned as taking active part in
the ceremonies of the day the follow
ing priests aided in the chanting:

The Story of Seven Years.
The Very Reverend J. NJ. Cleary,
who is dean of the Minneapolis
priests, has been pastor of the In
carnation parish since it's organiza-
ton eight years ago. Since that time
he has built the Institute of the In
carnation wherein there is church
hall with a seating capacity of eight
hundred and, on the second floor, a
school in which three hundred and
fifty children were enrolled last year.
A fine parish residence for the priests
and well appointed convent for the
Dominican Sisters in charge of the
school have also been provided. The
new church will complete the series
of building operations which was be-
gun seven years ago. 1t will be one
of the finest church buildings in
Minneapolis, an architectural feature
in the lake district of the city. The
late Mr.. Masqueray drew the plans
according to the Byzantine style of
architecture adapted to modern condi-
lions and needs The seating capac-
| ity of the church will be twelve hun
bred. The contract for the building
was let for $4,000 to the H. N.
Leighton Co. Besides providing the
| people of the parish with a large and
beautiful church, the new edifice will
enable the pastor to use all of the
school building for school purposes.
This will double the present capacity
of the school, relieve the congestion
and provide accommodation for all
the children of the parish for several
tyears to come. mn a.

tenth Sunday after Pentecost, Bene-
dict XIV abeing Roman Pontiff, John
Ireland, Archbishop of st. Paul; Wood
row Wilson, President of the United
States; Joseph Burnquist, Governor
of the State of Minnesota; James
Cleary, pastor of the parish, this
cornerstone of the Church dedicated
to the Mystery of the Incarnation was
laid by His Grace the Archbishop in
the presence of a great concourse of
people.
The Sermon.
After the blessing of the corner
stone and of the foundations of the
church, the Archbishop, accompanied
by all the clergy, proceeded to the
canopy which had been erected near
the front steps Of the new structure.
Then the episcopal vestments were
removed and the Archbishop deliver
ed a sermon on the Incarnation of
Christ. The assembled throngs were
all about him-on the. rough floor OF
the future church edifice, on it's front
steps, on the streets and neighboring
porches of the convent were filled
with the Dominican Sisters who have
charge of the Incarnation school, and
others who had gathered for the oc-
casion. Despite the lack of con-
veniences in the crude surroundings
of the unfinished structure, everyone
listened with closest attention to the
words of the Archbishop.
He dwelt upon the supreme sig
nificance to all men of the Incarna-
ton of Christ, the central truth of
the Christian religion upon which all
other truths of religion are based.
If, said the speaker, Almighty God
were Himself to speak the one word
which proclaims the most momentous
event in the history of mankind, that
one word would be the Incarnation.
1t is faith in the Incarnation of
Christ that has proved it's power to
lift men above the sordid aims of
earth: it is love for the Incarnate
Christ that inspires the most heroic
sacrifice and has ennobled nineteen
centuries of history. Where men for
get or disregard the Incarnation,
there selfishness and passion hold
sway, men become debased, society
withers. The Archbishop urged the
parishioners, by their prompt and gen.
erous cooperation with their pastor,
to speed the day when this monument
to their faith would be completed;
when they will be summoned within
its finished walls to adore upon its
altar the Incarnate God. Every
stone you put into this building" said
the Archbishop, is an act of faith in
the Incarnation; every sacrifice you
make to upbuild it's walls is an act OF
love for the Incarnate Christ. Hasten
then with your gifts of love, of gold
of labor, that soon there may stand
here in your midst fitting monument
to your living faith a beautiful abode
for the Word made Flesh. The Arch
bishop warmly congratulated the
parish on the patronage extended to
the parochial school where the Mas
ter's name is on the lips and His love
