INDIVIDUAL GOOD WILL l
 BASIS OF LASTING PEHCE E

The message of the angels, Peace on earth-1to men of good will although a Christmas text. was made pertinent and timely in it's application to pres ent day conditions by Rev Peter J. Cuny at the high mass in St. Patricks church Sunday.
 Christ came to bring that peace. of which so much is being said in these days to men of individual good will. What is true of individuals is true of nations. There can be no lasting peace unless there is an absence of selfish ness, of the spirit of pride which inn
 plies inequality. and of avarice. Last ing peace must have as it's basis indi- yidual good will.
 In any country the first essential to peace is obedience to law-divine and civil. By contrast is anarchy, which
 makes claim to have no laws, yet has one, that might is right. Results were described under such conditions, which are Pan-Gerna applied to indi- vidual rights.
 l In the matter of obedience to law, the | Catholic church does not generalize, but is most specific. The church does not tickle the intelligence, yet do noth- ing for the soul. On tn econtrary, it
 always comes down to bedrock, and in
 this instance it gives men as the exact 1 laws of obedience the Ten Command
 ments of God, and the laws of the
 church; these. with a spirit of fair
 mindedness, and good intention. On the point of fair -mindedness, at- tention was directed to the fact that,
 while individuals may be narrow, the Catholic church is always democratic, broad, holding that those Of good will,
 though outside the pale, still are mem
 bers of the soul of the church. Very
 beautifully the thought was developed
 that throuh obedience to law, divine
 and human, love and peace. coming from God. will be reflected in the indi-
 vidual life and from it spread to the lives and souls of others.
 1 At the offertory John Doyle of the
 regular choir sang the baritone solo Bailey's melodious setting of the Ave Maria, in a very pleasing manner
