Virgin Mary Hailed AS Model
ExempIar' OF Christian Living

The references to the Blessed
Mother as ~our life" and our
hope" in the famous prayer. SalUe
Regina, were explained Sunday by
Msgr. Paul j. Glenn of Columbus
is a nationwide address on The
Catholic Hour.
The rector of st. Charles Semin-
AIRY, in the third sermon of a Len
ten series dedicated to Mary, de-
clafed that the title our life" as
used in the centuries-old prayer
means far more than mere af-
lection"
'.It means" he explained, that
Mary is the model and exemplar
Of Christian living the pattern
and example of what our life
should be. and also the sign and
promise of the heavenly life TO
which, through our holy faith, we
aspire" He added:
1T means, too, that the Blessed
Mother is our intercessor with
God, and that we rely, in all con-
fidence, upon her unfailing prayer
in our behalf.
I'VE do not call Mary our life
in the sense in which Christ. her
Divine Son, is our life" Msgr.
Glenn continued. Christ is our
eternal life, our reward exceeding
great, for He is God. Christ is the
Creator of our life, the Giver of
our life, the Fulfilment of our life.
Mary is the means by which We
realize this truth; she is the ex-
emplification of this truth; she is
the inspiration and guide by whose
aid we bring our conduct into con-
formity with this truth. And in

said congressional committees get

at hand"
Bishop Ready said Our strong
united voice should call for great

tions for families in low or mod

seek more liberal family housing
benefits, in the form of lower down
payments and lower interest rates,
as we'll as longer terms of matur-

But he said that while man is a

lessness, I'VE must be more con

with valor and virtue rather than
with leisure and ease; with saliva

with bonds and securities for all. ;"
