 OUR LOYALTY AS CATHOLICS
 We make 1t a practice to read bach week Q representative portion of our Catholic press, This week we have seen no declaration of our Catholic loyalty more eloquent than that of our own Most Reverend Bl- shop, Bishop McAullffe.
 We are now called upon to de- lend our country and our rights. We answer the call Of our President and our Congress and promise to carry on the war until this land md oth. ITS enjoy the glorious freedom of O real democracy. There is today one tIiind and one heart in this glorious country. We shall fight until this lnfaEMy of uilprovoked attack has been driven from all lands. In this crisis we pledge our loyalty and our sealty to our country. We are ready to defend her even to the supreme sacrifice. We shall remain calm and temperate during the crigis and every day pray to our God to bless our country and it0 aims"
 None will outdo it's in service for the preservation of liberty under Qod"; none will pray more fervently for the restoration Of peace with justico."
