cannot endure without the family,
and the family cannot endure with
out the home life is modelled upon
the life and virtues of the Holy Fam
lily of Jesus, Mary and Joseph, un-
less there is respect for the moral

the home. And that surely the Moth

Himself to be His Mother, is safe
ideal and model for womanhood to
follow and initiate, how could it be
otherwise? The church was beau
tifully adorned with flowers of many
colors silhouetted against a back

candles, which added beauty and dig
nifty to the occasion
