to Blape1er and Atheist Holy Names Centuries Old Activity
Holy Name Society
Established IL, 1874
By Pope Gregory X.

The great Holy Name move
ment was founded in the year
1874, when Pope Gregory x is
sued his famous bull Of Septem-
Der goth, to John of Vercellis,
commanding that devotion to
the Holy Name Of God be
preached and spread through
out the world.
The primary object of the
Holy Name Society is honor and
reverence to the holy name of
God and Of Jesus Christ. The
secondary object is the suppress
sion of blasphemy. perjury.
cursing. profane and obscene
language.
The Holy Name movement in
America dates back little
moro than fifty years ago. A
little group of societies in New
d York banded themselves into
what was designated a diocesan
union. Quickly following this
initiative. diocesan unions were
formed in Long Island and
Avn III oCi oSys w I'LL NhC oC6 III
ming of the present century,
Holy Name Unions have been
formed in various diocesan and
archdiocesan centers. and
branches formed in numerous
parishes. SO that at the present
time there are no less than AZ
diocesan unions. five thousand
six hundred and sixty-three
branches and a total member
ship variously estimated be-
tween a million and a half and
two million.
Public Holy Name rally pa
rades are the outward express
sion of the object and aim of
the society. They constitute on
the part of the Holy Name men
a public act of faith in the doc
trine of Christ's divinity, an
act OF reparation and honor to
His holy name and public
act of allegiance and patriot
ism to their country.
This is the avowed and sim
gle minded purpose of the pres
ent national convention of the
Holy Name Society. which is
held in Washington during
these days of September, imme-
diately surrounding the day of
the 65oth anniversary of its
foundation.
The extension slogan of the
Holy Name Society is, "A Holy

100000 Members Holy Name Society
To Celebrate 65Oth Anniversary
Meeting Here Mainly Due
to Personal Efforts of
Very Req. NJ. J. Ripple.
Director General in u. S.
and Leader Of 100000
Men Of Organization.

The fact that the 65oth anniver-
sary of the founding of the Holy
Name Society by Blessed John of
Vercelli, master general of the Do
minican Order, is being celebrated
with convention and demonstration
which will bring more than 10000
members of the organization to
Washington before the assembly is
concluded, is due to Very Rev. Michael
OF the society in the United States
and leader of 100000 Holy Name
men,.
Born In Baltimore in 1872, Father
Ripple received his elementary and
high school education from the Chris
tian Brothers, later studying at 10y
ola College under the Jesuit Fathers,
whom he impressed with his marked
philosophical and literary tendencies.
He decided to enter the priesthood
and chose as his life's vocation a
membership in the Dominican order.
He entered the novitiate school in
Somerset, Ohio, and after concluding
his ecclesiastical studies was ordain-
ed into the priesthood by the late
Bishop Watterson, a famous Catholic
orator and prelate.
Edits Holy Name Journal.
He was appointed associate editor
Of the frst publication of the Holy
Name Journal and was later made
editor. He is now editor of the Holy
Name Journal, the Holy Name Maya
zine and the Torch. These publica-
tionsrunder his direction grew rapidly
and now have a circulation over the
100000 mark.
In 1920 Father Ripple was appoint
ed director general Of the Holy Name
Society in America. In 1922 he visit
ed Rome and was received in audi
ence by the Pope, who was amazed at
the great growth and activity of the
society in America 1t was while
Father Ripple was in Rome that the
idea of CREST celebration of the
founding Of the Holy Name occurred
to him, and upon his return he set to
work to organize the plans that have
now been realized.
Speaker Of Ability.
A man of medium height and of
powerful build, Father Ripple radi-~
ates energy. A speaker Of unusual
al ility, with q conviction In the pur-
poses Of the organisation that he rep
resents, this priest communicates his

No Political Phase
Is Associated With
Holy Name Session

That the Holy Name rally Is not
a political move or in any sense a
demonstration to accumulate great
political power was stressed by
Rt. Rev. Michael J. Ripple, o. p,
director general of the Holy Name
Society in America. in an address
before q recent rally of the New
York Archdiocesan Union.
Father Ripple declared that the
rally was merely a demonstration
of faith and patriotism, and abso-
lutely devoid of any political sig
nificance.
The Holy Name Society repre-
sents q deeply religious body Of
men dedicated to law and order:
pledged to obey and observe the
laws Of God and as a consequence
pledged to uphold and respect the
laws of their country. obedient
servants OF Gods Ten Command
ments. they cannot be traitors to
the laws of Justice, liberty and fra
ternity which bind them together
as American citizens in the most
glorious republic on the face OF
Gods earth" declared Fathsr
Ripple.

Power in Holy Name Membership.

"Other societies Of Catholic men do
not emphasize the spiritual side of
mans existence. Each has an appro-
pirate sphere, but none supply the
power that the Holy Name Society can
give a Catholic man. And precisely
because it is a society interested pri-
marily. almost solely, with the sancti-
fcation of its members. many men are
unwilling to become members of it.
They find no inducement, because
they are interested in the world and
the things Of the world, and have not
become educated to love the things of
the SPIRIT" says the Holy Name
Journal.

A canvass is being made of the va
rious religious houses and chapels
