The clear meaning would

system of inspection.

Others would be inclined to

the basic minimum of trust.

likely to accept anything less.

Internal Reform
Some of our family move
ments like Cana, the Mr.. and
Mrs. Clubs, the Confraternity
of Christian Doctrine are stress
ing the internal reform of the
family. Plants grow from with
in and the family must reform
itself from within. 1t carries
within it that power: so sacra-
mental graces must be reactivat-
ed, attitudes must be Christian
lied, the role of parents must
be re-established.
AS important as external re-
forms are, the internal ones
are much more vital. True,
housing, day nurseries,, recrea-
ton centers, family allowances
are helpful, but internal re-
forms are absolutely indispen-
sable.
Not that we wish to underem-
phasize the external reforms.
W. Catholics are not interest
ed enough in laws, in lobby
ing, in politics, and SO on. We
must constantly balance the ex-
ternal and the internal. Not
even the daily missal can re-
place a cook book! Our family
movements are succeeding won
derfully in this balance of the
natural and the supernatural,
the external and the internal.

Thirdly, the government in

Loud hurrahs are resounding
In family camps throughout the
country and many are now
awaiting the new book to be
published by Father Cervantes
and DR.. Zimmerman. 1t will
carry the first large scale
study ever made of successful
families. They are studying
10000 families.
Several important discoveries
have already been announced.
These three will be special
aids as we chart our future
course:
Group Rapport
/. Successful families gather
around them other families
with like ideals, like back
ground, like religion, like val
ues. Good families will not long
survive if they feel isolated
and alone. They need moral
support from others. Many
couples today believe in large
families, so the pattern will
continue to grow. A code sys-
tenn for youth agreed upon by
teachers and parents is ex-
cellent because it establishes
"Reminiscences. The rule is:
protect your own by gather
ing around you those who share
your ideals"
2. Successful families must
have group rapport. Likemind-
edness is not enough, there
must be friendly inter-com-
municatlon. It must be ex-
pressed. Contact, understand
ing, agreement, solidarity must
be maintained. This can never
happen il homes are islands set
apart. Organizations are val
liable bridges between homes.
Mutual Assistance

warnings to the world. These
are. one, that Soviet Russia

two, that Moscow is not to be

To some, these may seem
anachronistic, in view of the
disarmament talks in London.
Actually, they could not be
more timely.
There are in the Govern

made careers of the study of
the Soviet Union. They seek to
know not only what Moscow
does, but why it does it. They
note the obvious implications of
every communist move, and
they strive to dig out the hid

Fir. Healey's Inquiry Corner
Will There Be Racial
Difference In Heaven?

c. st. Vincent de Paul must
haze come from a noble fam
lily, considering his position at
court. Hon. did he become so
interested in the poor and in
starting the society?
A. st. Vincent came from a
poor family, whose great sac
rifices enabled him to study
for the priesthood. His cap
ture by the Moors and hard
ships as a prisoner gave him
further sympathy for the un-
derprivileged. His rise to prom
inenee at court was due to his :
apostolic works and great holi-
ness. He did not originate the
great work which bears his
name, the st. Vincent de Paul
Paul Society but he was the
organizer of the Congregation
of Lazarist Missionaries and of
the Sisters of Charity.
Q. / thought there uere only
tWelUe apostles and get st.
Paul is counted one!
A. So are several others. of
the founding fathers" of the
Church, especially st. Barna-
bas, the companion of st. Paul.
Christ chose twelve whom he
also named apostles" duke
6:12-16) but St. Matthias was
chosen to take the place of
Judas acts 1:15-26). st. Paul
even refers to himself as an
apostle: For ! am the least of
the apostles, and not worthy
to be called an apostle, be-
cause l prosecuted the Church
of God" q Corinthians 1871
G. When and how did Forty
Hours deUotion start?
A. The feast of Corpus Chris
ii was established by Pope Ur-
ban " in 1864. With the fol-
lowing years came increased
devotion to the Blessed Sacra-1
ment exposed and the practice
of setting aside two days i'm
mediately before Lent for this
devotion, especially for repara-
ton. Later the celebration was
extended to other times of the
year. The forty hour period
was associated with the time
during which the Sacred Body
of Christ lay in the tomb.
c. What is required to gain
the indulgences for the ros-
arg? Does it haze to be fit.
teen decades to gain a ple,e
arg indulgence?
A. According to the Raccolta.
"the faithful, whenever they
recite a third part of the Rosa
ry with devotion may gain an
indulgence of five years." and
Gin. company with Others
whether in public or in private
-. of ten years" There is al
so a twice-monthly plenary in
diligence for the family rosary
and a plenary indulgence for
its recitation in the presence
of the Blessed Sacrament.
There are also special indulg-
ences when the beads have had
the Dominican, Crosier or
Bridgetine blessing. For all
plenary indulgences, of course,
the usual conditions of Con-
fession and Holy Communion
are required.

W iSbt 4NLtSctOo ~ HSOPtS
on earth aUiU persist IN heap
en-? What about a deformity
or racial differences? What
age WiU people there be?
A. In his first letter to the
Corinthians st. Paul gives the
best answer we can give about
the glorified bodies of the
blessed: $50 also with the
resurrection of the dead. What
is sown in corruption rises in
interruption; what is sown in
weakness rises in power, what
is sown a natural body rises
a spiritual body" q Corinthi-
ans 15:42-44) Our bodies will
be immune to pain, will have
great beauty, will have power
to move great distances eff
fortlessly and will have the
ability to enter through solid
substances leg. as Christ did
with His glorified body after
the Resurrection). All imper-
fections will be removed but
the body of the person in heav-
en- will still be identified as
HIS. Either deformities, etc.
will be removed or they will
be simply marks of our identi-
ty; in any case they will not
lessen our happiness in any
way.
@. Con q man predict from
the Apocalypse Tor as he calls
1T the Book of Reveldtson) the
date of the end of tie world?
A. No. Christ gave the most
general rule in the matter
when He said: "Watch there
fore, for you do not know at
what hour your Lord is to
come" Matthew 24:42). Again
He said that "of that day and
hour no one knows, not even
the angels of heaven" (Mat-
thew 24:36). Signs are given in
the aforementioned chapter
but they are not to be applied
to definite dates except refer
ence to the fact that at the
very end "the sun will be dark
ened -. and the stars will fall
from heaven" That will scarce
ly need a prophet to explain
when it arrives. In the Apoca-
lypse there are several deep
and difficult passages (6:12-17
and 20:1-10) but none of them
give more than general de
scription and warning to be
ready. For each person the
time of his death is the end of
the world as it is the time of
the particular judgment and
the determination of his eter-
nal destiny.
Q. Are Eric and Ernest
saints names? Colette?
A. Yes. Eric is a short form
of Henricus (Henry) and there
is also a st. Eric who was Eric
II of Sweden, martyred by
pagans as he left the Cathe-
dral at Upsala, May 18, 1160.
May 18 is his feast day. Err
nest is taken from st. Ernest,
abbot in southern Germany
who travelled to the Holy Land
with the crusaders in 1148 and
was put to death by the Mos.
lens. His feast is November 7,
Colette is a shortened form of
Nicolette which is the femi,
nine of Nicholas, but there is
a st. Colette who was a re.
former of the contemplative
order of Poor Clares. She died
in 1447 and her feast day is
March 6.
