 Tear religion from the heart of man. destroy his faith in God and in his accountability to God, as so much in modern education tends to do, and what nave we left but ed- ucated savages who might over night give reign to the animal that is in all of us and bring to pass the rule of the jungle, with might making right and every injustice justified by suc- cess?"

EXPLAINS NEED 0F
 RELIGION IN MAN
Missioner Also Tells Object Of
 Catholic Schools

Rev. John Carter Smyth of the Paulist Order of Missionaries, de- livered an address on Catholic Education" at the mission services for non-C Catholics at St. Mary's church last night. The topic for the evening was suggested through a question dropped in the question box the previous evening. The main point brought out by Father Smyth was the need for religious education and it's effects on law and order. He also stressed the point from a prac- tical side that it helps the well-being of the state.
 In part the missioner said, Cath ollie education gives the only basis for right order in human society by establishing moral sanctions that make obedience to law, human and divine, an act of virtue rather than of expedience or fear. The submls- sion ot the creature to the Creator is as essential for maintenance and progress of society as it is funda- mental for the sanctification Of the individual.
 Secular education sometimes loses sight of this elementary truth and quickly there develops a spirit of lawlessness that is so marked and distressing a feature of our present life. Individuals and nations are in rebellion, restless with discontent that is not difficult to understand but that is hard to exercise Or re- strain.
 "The Holy Father stressed this fact when he expressed the grave fears that filled his soul as he looked out on world confused and defiant. This lawlessness says the Holy Father, is due, " to an absence of faith in the lives of men and con- seouent lack of motives and sanc- tions that would encourage the prac- tice of obedience through which alone order can be established. There can be no order in society without the acknowledgment of the dominion of God over His creatures. And inasmuch as modern society has attempted to set itself above God, this forgetfulness of the supernatural has led individuals to egotism and society to revolution and anarchy.
 "The acquisition of new knowl- edge, the advance of science and the invention of many hitherto un- known instruments of comfort and convenience have given man in- creased confidence in their own com petence, so that unless taught and restrained by religion they have turned more and more from the thought of an unseen God and have sought inspiration in the name oi humanity and have been led to trust to human arraignments and human ideals.
 "The necessity for moral training based on religious instruction is for the Catholic obvious. not only in the matter of personal salvation, but for social safety as well. What pos sible hope Is there for humanity when the authority of God is denied and the sanction of an overruling
