st. James Catholic Church
Last Sunday evening at ST. James
Catholic church, Father Preston de-
livered the second sermon in a SER
les of Lenten discourses, to a good
sized crowd. The topic was: "The
Catholic Church and American Cit
izenship.'' The first 20 minutes
were devoted to an explanation OF
the various externals of the Cath
Ollie church, such as the use of can
dies, statues in the church. The SER
mons are of an instructive nature,
the aim being to give information
from an educational point of view
as to the doctrines and teachings OF
the Catholic church, on questions
of current interest. Education and
knowledge of the other mans re-
ligion will not hurt anybody. and il
there were better knowledge OF
religions in the world today, it
would be a much better place in
which to live. There is nothing sin
lister in the discourses being held at
the Catholic church. Honest mind
ed and sincere people should avail
themselves of the opportunity to
know the truth about these i'm
portant questions, because it is the
duty of every man and woman, Cath
olic, Protestant or Jew, to help
'spread truth and the noble American
virtue of tolerance, for it is only
upon these grounds that America
can exist. America today, more than
ever, is in need of noble, upright,
real American men and women.
leaders of American ideals and prin-
ciples, who can remove the cancer
of religious intolerance by eradi-
eating the germ ignorance, and this
can only be done by education.
| Therefore. men andz@sWomen who
should be leaders in this struggle to
spread the charity of Christ, must
themselves be educated as to the
| truth. The blind can't lead the
blind; if they do, they will both fall
into the pit; and this is the trouble
in America today. Men and women
who should be beacons of light are
leading the people of today over the
dark sea of ignorance, with ship
wreck as the inevitable result, be-
cause of their own ignorance. 1t is
the duty of every good Christian
American to instruct the ignorant,
so that they will not continue to
revel in the moral filth of religious
intolerance. The subject for next
Sunday night is: THE True Attitude
of the Catholic Church Toward
