selected package, opened it, and
showed it to all anyone

Take a Korean orphan, or one
in Burma perhaps, or for that
matter, one right here at home.
Dress the youngster up, feed him
well for a while, and chances are
he would seem very much like
any of the happy children in your
neighborhood. But right now he
isn't that way at all. There is no
one to care for him-no one to
make smile. But when a volun-
teer worker calls at your doors

peal, you can be sure that is a
person who cares. Give literally;
be good neighbor to youngsters
like these and to thousands in
need over the whole wide world.
Many of us, not members of
Homemakers groups, little realize
how far-reaching educationally,
culturally, and fun-wise, these
groups are. Nor do we realize
(unleSs we happen to fall upon
the information) that what most
of these groups are offered, we,
ourselves, may obtain by calling
the Home Demonstration office
in Rockville.
Homemakers groups through
out the country are an outgrowth
of an act of Congress which en-
ables the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and the
Bureau of Home Economics to
work closely with the Extension
Services of all Land Grant Col
leges in the United States. In
this State, the University of
Maryland is such college, and
its Extension Service enables
each county in Maryland to have
a Home Demonstration Depart
ment and a County Agent set
up.
Through the Home Demonstra-
ton Agent and her assistants,
members of Homemakers clubs

A lot Of these men, especially
those who get jobs at the Capitol
or in Government departments,
learn great deal about govern
ment while earning their degrees.
Many of them return home, enter
politics and come back to Wash

who attend Catholic schools here

the IA Georgetown alumni who
will hold seats in the next Con-

to be Catholics. Senator Dennis

Q. Does the Church hare an
ANSWER to those loho sag that the
Immaculate Conception belittles
the institution OF marriage. er-
dggerdting the Importance Of
utroinity?
A. First of all it is necessary
to state that the doctrine of the
Immaculate Conception refers TO
the Blessed Mothers freedom
from Original Sin from the first
instant of her existence, not 10
her perfect and perpetual vir-
ginity. Since it was the model
established by Catholic devotion
which revolutionized family life
it would be historically inaccu-
rate and grossly unfair to state
that our belief in Mary'S virgini-
ty represents any belittling of
marriage, The Blessed Mother
has been the model for all Chris
tian women, married ones who
see in her motherhood and low
ing obedience to her husband a
guide for their lives, and unmar-
ried ones who find her spotless
purity their inspiration. While
the Holy Family is different
from the average family in many
ways the differences have never
hindered devotion to that Family
as the model of families. The
great respect Catholics have for
dedicated virginity in no way
denies the dignity Of the Sacra-
ment of Matrimony, (See Pope

A. The message of Fatima add
ed no new note to the teaching
of the Church. 1t is important
in all apparitions that the
Church first make sure that it
is authentic. Any private revela-
tion or devotion which is truly
from God will grow and the de-
votion to Our Lady of Fatima
passed that test too. From 1917
until 1886 it grew and transform
ed the country of Portugal, to
the extent of a pubic pledge Of
thanksgiving and dedication to
Our Lady in the latter year. The
spread of the devotion and the
message of Fatims nas been re-
markable since that time, and
has answered the obvious need
of the world in these critical
years.

these unfortunate people, We are asked in the
name of Christian Chartyto help The Catholic Times
will do our share.
This year special appeal is made for clothing
for priests The poverty of the people prevents them
from giving their generous support to the Church
in the countries which have been overrun by the
armies. The congregation of refugees outside the
Iron Curtain presents not only serious problem
to the Church in providing priests TO minister to the
people but likewise presents serious problems of
support Even behind the Iron Curtain it is possible
to give minimum of help to the priests who have
remained with the people who are being per
secuted for their faith These priests also need
help
Our Lord has told us. that we cannot close our
hearts to our brothers who need our help. We know
that the priests and lay of the Diocese will do their
generous share in the Thanksgiving Clothing Appeal
they have in all the campaigns in the past.
