FAMILIES LARGE. HOLY.
Promoted by Great Organization, ApostIeship of Prayer in Catholic Church.

The March infection of the great A3ostlesbip of Prayer, which has branches in the local Catholic churchs, is the growth of the church through large and holy families. The leaf1et distributed to members reads:
 Large families have always been regarded in the Old Law and in the New, as the special blessing of God the church prays that the bride be fruitful in offspring and that they may both see their cflildren's children to the third and fourth generation" Modern organism, on the contrary, following the gospel os greed and sell fshness has turned against Gods law with the result that in many coun- tries the birthrate has fallen go low as to threaten the extinction of the nation. Such is the case notably in France. The same conditions have prevailed for years among the de- scendants of the Puritans in New England and the evils which are re- sponsible for the decreasing birthrate are spreading to all parts of the coun- try and are openly advocated in de- fance of all law.
 Our Holy Father emphasizes the church's position by recommending all the Associates of the Apostleship to pray for large families. to pray in otiier~ words that married people may leod holy lives in exact obedience to the law of God and nay require the blessing of fruitfulness.
 1t is not merely for large families that we are asked to pray but for holy families. also. that is. fcf homes modelled on the home at Nazareth. in which the fathers strive to initiate the virtues of St. Joseph, the mothers the virtues of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the children the obedience and holiness of the Child Jesus. The fidelity of our Catholic people has been rewarded by large and holy families iT the past. Let us pray that none of tue present day may be infected by bad example and. the pagan princi- pies of so mary around them.
