DEL AsILo DE NINos

PDr I'LL volante que Sc ha hecho cir
cular nos enteramos de que ell director
del Asilo de Ninos, nuestro amigo el
sefior Vicenty, ha ordenado que para
que los asilados salgan a disfrutar de
vacaciones, tienen los padres encarga
dos, que proporcionarles zapatos, pues
los que estan usando los tienen que
dejar en- Ell Asilo. Con todo respeto al
amigo director, creemos que la med!da
es algo fuerte, pues las personas a
quienes Sc obliga a hacer el sacrificio
de comprar esos zapatos, son todas po-
bres, y con itodo su dolor preferiran
no tener ese tempo sus hijos su
lado; sacarlos descalzos, 10 que no
Sc veria muy bien. Creemos, que Ell
amigo vicenty, despues de pensar 10
que decimos, revocara la orden, que
le traera un sin fin de bendiciones de
las madrcs de esos n:fios.

Existe esta gran division de dos
grupos en- todos los 6rdenes de la vi
da. Los Conservadores y los Radica-
les. Aquellos que buscan la aventu-
ia, y aquellos que buscan la autori-
dad. Cual perdurara, es cosa que no
tenemos medios de conocer.
La Iglesia de Roma ha perdurado
por largo tempo, y puede que sea
la iglesia del future.
Sin embargo, no es sefal de vigor
haber existido tanto tempo.
Sea que las iglesias Sc unan no,
los corazones de los hombres Sc niue
ven juntos y lograran crear una nue.
va religion tangible.
Como dice Mr.. Frank, el lego el
