cular teaching, and thus gradually sup
press everything that pertains to re-
ligion.
Hence, what ought to be and for
merly was an asylum of virtues, is, in
a great measure, converted into a re-
ceptacle of vices; for, once let the
fear of God which is the beginning of
wisdom disappear from the school
room, what is to prevent the young in
their rashness and impetuosity from
being carried away by the violence of
their passions?
Nevertheless there are none so
blind but can see how profitable, how
useful for the good of society is the
work of those who consecrate them
selves as the members of your insti-
tute do, to the Christian education of
children, who are the hope of the
future.
We also unite with you in giving
thanks to the Lord who has deigned
to reward your zeal in bestowing upon
your institute so large, so cOnsoling q
measure of prosperity, and we enter
tain the hope that, from this COM
memoration of your sanity father and
founder, you will obtain a renewal OF
fervor and zeal, that will enable you
TO continue your useful work in be-
half of Church and society.
For this purpose, and in order to
draw down on you more abundantly
the divine blessings, we cheerfully
grant plenary Indulgence, on the 7th
day of April next, on the ordinary
conditions, to the priests who will
celebrate the Holy. Sacrifice of the
Mass in your houses, as also to your
Brothers and pupils who will assist
thereat.
''As a pledge of the divine favors
and as a testimony of our paternal
good will, we lovingly bestow upon
you, beloved son, and upon the entire
society, the Apostolic Benediction.

9th day of January, 1919, of our pom

CELEBRATE TWO CENTENA-

HIERARCHY.

The present year of grace, 1919, is
of the Institute Of the Brothers of
the Christian Schools, since it COM
memorates a double anniversary, viz,
the second centenary Of the publica-
tion of the rules and constitutions of
the order, composed and revised by
the founder, st. John Baptist de la
Sale; and next, the second centenary
OF his happy death.
This latter event is made all the
more memorable in view of the fact
that it has elected from the Sovereign
PonNff himself, Pope Benedict XIV,
the following very interesting and
highly appreciative letter:
Letter of Holy Father.

Imier of Jesus, Superior General of
the Institute Of the Brothers of the
Christian Schools. Benedict XIV, Pope.

his time, but he employed, moreover
ways and means which even to the
present day have lost none of their
power and efficiency for social uplift
and betterment
