fear of so many who are
afraid to suffer illness alone,
or Of having to take care of

to look for a partner to share

Too many men have never
gotten over their one-sided
parental love; they have never
learned to care deeply for
someone else. That is why the
infidelity of a husband shows
one of two things: either he
has never learned to really
love another or he is mentally
sick. No sane man can say in
one breath that he has a hap

that he can leave home and &C.

wife. If he really believes that,
he needs a psychiatrist. True

Often Hi-Prepared
When women are lonely at
home, often 1t is because they
are so ill-prepared for that life.
I know some nuns who have
looked away in grief when
their recent graduates, about
to marry, thanked them for all
they had done. They felt one
regret. They krew that a
specific course should have
been offered in family living.

@. What is the difference be-
tween q Cana Conference, d
Day of Recollection and q Re-
treat?
A.. A Cana Conference is d
special exercise for married
couples, often given in the
parish or church hall and gem
erly lasting a good part of one
day. "A day of recollection Ii
similar except that it may be
given for any group, men or
women, and also may be given
in the parish church or in
q retreat house. It generally
starts in the morning (some-
times with Mass) and lasts
until early evening. The con-
~ferences may be specialized
tc fit the particular group or
general spiritual talks. A re.
treat must be given at a spec.
ial place and must last at
least forty-eight hours Pops
Plus XI stressed this point in
hi, encyclical on retreats
when he quoted the words Of
Christ: Come apart into a de-
sert place and rest a while.n
The silence and the longer
period as well as the place
apart from daily activities
make a retreat something
quite different from the other
spiritual exercises mentioned.
c. Is there a Saint Herman?'
A There are several. The
most noted is Blessed Herman
Joseph, whose feast day is
April 18th. He was a ccntem-
plative Premonstratensian
canon who lived and died
(1241 ADJ in Cologne at the
age of n~inety-two. He is noted
for his treatises on mystical
prayer, although they are not
commonly used in our day.

an organization to help you

is it a religious GROUP? They

prejudice to any religion.
A. There are two organiza-
tions of this name and both are
forbidden to Catholics. The
first is . religious sect which
began in the seventeenth cen

Arabian magic of an earlier
writer and occultist called Ros-
enkreuz and this brotherhood

the organization is that reserv-
ed to Master Masons and it is
supposed to be derived from
the original source of the broth
erhood of 14O8. Some of the

faith in magic, invoking a kind
of impersonal world power.
Q Why does the priest say
cite Missd Est" at the end of
the Mass sometimes and at
others "Benedicdmus DON'T

A. In the early days of the
Church many customs of the
time were adopted and adapt
&c for church use. In 400
AID. Avitus, archbishop of
Vienne, states that the proc
lamation "Missa est" was used
to dismiss civil and religious
assemblies. At that time it
marked the end of the Mass
(tke Last Gospel etc. came
later) and it was from this
borrowed expression of dis
missal that we get our name
fer . the Mass (missa). On
days of penance the people
stayed in church to pray long
