offers interesting possible advantages, Many
small communities in missionary territories could
be administered in part by such deacons. The
deacon has the power to distribute Holy Com
munion, though he cannot celebrate Mass, hear
Confessions, or give Extreme Unction. He could
conduct regular Sunday services at which he
would lead the community prayers or instruct.
Father Henkey also raised another point
worthy of serious consideration. Much as we do
indeed require Jealous laymen, in actual fact
they increase the burdens of the ministry The
more jealous the laity the more tasks con
front the priest who has to follow up their eff
forts and bring them to fruition,
Likewise, the most jealous layman remains
.layman. He has, al best, only his subjective
personal qualities to help him continue on. If the
same person were to be ordained a deacon, he
would find his own efforts greatly enhanced by
the grace of the Sacrament of Orders. We
priests base our priestly work on the precious
gift of sacrsmental grace which we enjoy in
virtue of our office. God works through us-a
dogmatic fact that keeps one humble. In like
manner, God would cooperate sacramentaly in
this apostolste of the deacon.
Christ is always with His Church The Holy
Spirit constantly enlightens her May this not
be the modern message God has for His Church?

this world unless the rank and
file of the labor movement
rise up in great numbers and
support it. In our opinion,
they are not likely TO do so.
One Of the more obvious
morals OF these statistics is
that organized labor is not
particularly class conscious
and, certainly. not as powerful
as so many of its critics -
including the Wall Street Jour-
nal - repeatedly make 1t
out to be. For better or for
worse, it would appear that

Maybe it's good thing that
American workers. by and

class-conscious to feel the need
of a specialized daily of their

might be argued that what's

taught us basic humility, the
power Of prayer and so on. He
would have warned us against
being "show off" looking for
applause, keeping up with the
Joneses, or seeking merely mer-
cenary human respect.
ST. Joseph would have told
many in the lay apostolate to-
day not TO expect during their
own life time 10 sec the re
suits of the good they are do
ing. They, probably as he, will
never live to see the fruits of
the obedience, self-sacr ifice, /
dedication of hidden lives. But
that should not stop them
either.

there are many bold, adventur-

Gods name outside of the
home. That these jobs cannot
be done by cowed males, male

That there is hierarchy Of

In doubt, look to st. Joseph

Tuesday March rs

London's first 1857 visit of the
American Red Cross Bloodmobile
unit is set for Tuesday, March 20,
according to an announcement
made this week by Mrs. Maybelle
Blackmore, Blood Recruitment
Chairman. The county's first visit
was to West jefferson on Febru-
ary 81 when the villagers contrib
uted nearly 100 pints.
The unit will operate from the
basement of the Presbyterian
Church from 1000 am. until 400
pm. and appointments may be ar
ranged before the date for con-
tributions. Those who do not have
appointments may walk-in at the
center for their donation.
Mrs. Blackmore listed the fol-
lowing telephone numbers to call
for appointments as a means of
saving time for donors: UL 2-9943;
UL 2-1195; UL 2-9O58 and UL 2
0355.
The contributions last year total
ed 632 pints, but county use ex-
ceeded the contributions by far.
And the amount given was only
about two-thirds of the quota as
signed in the county program.
