Catholic Information
Six times three and a Rosary

prayers 1 have mentioned; we also mediate on the great mysteries which have to do with our Divine Savior's birth, life. death, and res urrection, and also the part which His Blessed Mother played therein. Fifteen sublime mysteries, upon which the child or ignorant adult can mediate according to his ca pacity. Fifteen stupendous mys- teries upon which the wisest theo- logian can dwell time without num- Der and never exhaust his source of godly inspirations.
 "An ever-flowing fountain of thoughts that raise us high. An ever acceptable tribute to Christ, our God and King. A frequently answered pleading to the mother of us all. for prayers and interces- sion to Him who loves her most. That is the Rosary.
 "Yes, Jimmie. old scout. I know what you're thinking: Vain repe- tition as the heather do.' Surely, we've had it here this evening, but not in the Rosary. Six times over We have played these three holes of golf; and look at the score-card. On each repetition you have been worse. Jimmie worse in score, worse in your heathenish condem- nation of little ball. Vain repe- tition! I'll leave it to the crowd!"
