A large crowd heard Father Pres

James church. The subject was.
1.-The Catholic Religion and the Cul-
ture of the Middle Ages" Father
Preston stated that it was erroneous
ly believed that the Greeks who fed
from the east at the fall of Con-
stantinople in 1853 brought the re-
birth for Greek tastes and ideas IN
western Europe, but, that on the
contrary, the history of the 18th
and 14th centuries reveals that our
culture is truly the development of
the influences which had been long
and steadily at work. He showed
that the 18th century is considered
the greatest of centuries-is called
by William Arnold and many others
the golden age of literature, deeds
and arts. 1t is plainly evident that
the great accomplishments of the
18th century were due to the inspira-
ton of religion which had been
planted by the church in her work
of outstanding the barbarians.
The sacred influence of the Christian
religion and it's doctrines and ideals
burst forth in the genius of the
great masters like Michael Angelo,
Raphael, Fra Angelica, and a host
of others whose genius is preserv-
ed incarnate in st. Peters in Rome
and in the Vatican library. The
speaker outlined the beauty of the
world cathedrals in various coun-
tries, which took over a century to
build and how these are the ad-
of the whole civilized world.
and quoted the beautiful tributes
of Longfellow and Mark Twain to
these ''princeliest creations ever
made by the hand of man. The
Magma Charta of Erglasd is the gift
of the 18th century to the world and
it is the cornerstone of constitution
al government in England and is the
foundation stone upon which our own
constitution is builded.
This charta was framed by Stephen
Langton the Catholic Archbishop of
Twentv-three univer-
sities were founded by the church in
the 18th century, and 53 in the 14th
and 18th centuries. The 9Th CEN
tury gave us Dante the prince of
poets, the period gives us three
world discoverers: Copernicus, the
Gutenberg, inventor OF
the printing press, Columbus, dis
coverer of America. France, Eng
land, Germany and Italy during this
period builded their greatest cathed-
rails which are recognized by stu
dents of culture as the greatest eX-
amples of human genius and have
never been equaled.

Sacred Heart of Jesus" Sunday

Pope and What 1t Means"
