Adult Education
Necessary Now,
DIR. Nutting Says

DR.. Willis d. Nutting, professor
at Notre Dame University, told
the DCCW delegates that adult
education in the Faith is neces-
sary for the Catholic "to hold
his own in the modern world"
when a person natures" DR..
Nutting told the delegates last
Saturday evening"" he makes his
ideas and his practices his own.
The transfer from taking things
from others to making them your
own is often quite hard, and a
lot may be lost in the process.
There are many fallen-away
Catholics who fell away because
of this difficulty, DR.. Nutting
reminded the delegates.
Their Faith was part Of
their childhood equipment and
when they grew up they put
away what they thought was a
childish thing. Therefore every.
one, as he comes to advIthood,
should have the Faith and prac-
tiees Of the Church presented
to him as an adult thing, as a
thing which can hold its own in
the modern world as in any 9TH
er world"

School Aid
To Be Cut

DURHAM, South Africa A
completely new and separate
Catholic mission school system
will come into being as of the
first of next year to educate
122 O African children in $40
schools throughout the Union of
South Africa.
The new and independent
school system will be operated
without financial aid from the
state. The former state subsidy of
about $3.50 900 a year has been
reduced by Is per cent each year
since 1855. AS of Jan. /, 1858, no
subsidy for native schools will be
paid.
To carry the new system
through the financial crisis re-
sulting from the ending of gov
eminent aid, Catholics have
pledged $780, 900, of which
about rs per cent has been re-
deemed.
Because of the lack of ade-
|quate funds, bishops and pastors
in some areas have told African
teachers that the schools cannot
pay an adequate living wage. The
teachers have been advised to
take employment in government
schools.
In other cases African teachers
are accepting salary cuts of Is
per cent and sometimes more.
Father D.. H. st. George, O.M.I.,
secretary for mission schools, re-
ported that in the future school
committees composed of parents
will help in the running of the
schools and in fund collecting"
