Then there is the sad story of those
who perhaps had the faith but fell
away. They first grew careless in
their religious duties. Gradually they
became more Indifferent and, finally
cut themselves adrift. They have lost
the truth but sooner than be without
anything they attach themselves to
some sect or other.
1t is heresy that has sprung IN
principally in our own day. 1t appears
to flourish for time, but like other
branches that have been broken off
from the tree of life it will soon wither
and die. Like all things human it's
day will come. The day will come,
nor is it far distant, when its halls
will be empty. There will be rush
from it's portals to some other new in.
vention in the religious line. It will
yield its place to something else. This
has been the history of the world. But
down through the ages that have gone
and through the long vista of years
to come the Catholic church has
grown and will grow ever stronger,
ever greater ever more beautiful. She
alone can defy the efforts of men to
destroy her, she alone can laugh to
scorn the powers of darkness For the
diadem of Immortality is on her brow,
the words of Divine truth are on her
lips. Storms of prosecutions may rise
on the ocean life, waves of heresy may
lash themselves into fury, danger
there is none, for the bark is the bark
OF Peter, and the hand at the helm is
the hand of God. The key to it's sue
cess is that it has been founded by
Jesus Christ Himself, and therefore
can never die. Where are the heresies
OF 1000 years ago? Gone. Gone.
Where are the men who sought to de-
stroy her at different times? Gone.
So it will be with G. S. in ages to
come. But the church of Christ will
be then. as now, fulfilling her mission
long ago given her by her founder,
encouraged by His words, Behold, 1
am with you all days even to the end
of the world"

solution to the problem.
The Daily News" states that ]. Dill
lon, MP, interviewed by it's Dublin
correspondent, said he knew nothing
about the proposed settlement and that
he did not believe there was any
foundation for the Manchester papers
statement. "Other Nationalist con.

days certain conversations had taken

Mr.. Dukes Activity.
According to the political GORE
spondent of the DAILY MAIL" Mr.. Duke
has been consulting prominent persons
on the Irish question, "but has not
yet been in communication with the
leaders of the Nationalist Party. It
may be taken that the idea is not to
wait for "a settlement until the Irish
parties themselves car be brought to
an agreement, but to find a scheme
that will bring them as near together
as possible. On the plea that it is
necessary to win the war all parties
will be expected to accept it without
opposition"
The Central News" political cor
respondent says there is every reason
to believe that the negotiations will
not come to full fruition until the i'm
perial aspects have been discussed.
1t is generally believed that one of
the objects of the sudden summoning
of the Imperial War Conference is not
unconnected with the idea underlying
the earlier proposal.
