The Road To Bethlehem

It probably took Mary and Joseph
four or five days to journey the 80
miles from Nazareth to Bethlehem to
register for the census in accordance
with the Emperor's decree.
But in the providence of God the
real reason why they went to Beth
lehem was to fulfill the prophecy say
ing that the Messiah would be born in
this city of David.
And born He was according to the
plan of His heavenly Father. Born of
the Virgin Mary in a stable and placed
in a manger in the company of cattle
and sheep. Born in poverty and humili-
ty.
The birth of Christ was announced
by angels to the sheperds as good
news of great joy" because it is the
most important event in history. Every
thing that happened before or since is
of secondary importance. For at Beth
lehem the Goodman was born into our

Christmas Collection

Ever since its founding in 1875 St.
Vincent Orphanage has been aided
financially by the Christmas Collection,
designated for that purpose by Bishop
Rosecrans, our first Ordinary. When st.
AIMS Infant Home was opened in 1908
Bishop Hartley asked that 1t share in
the proceeds of the same collection.
These two Diocesan institutions
have come a long way since those early
years. Today the children cared for
by the Sisters are not necessarily or
phaned by the death of their parents
More probably, they need protection
because a parent is i'll and unable to
work; or the family is a broken one. In

world.
The circumstances surrounding His
birth were ordained to show us what
God thinks of earthly pomp and wealth
and power. The event was the impor-
tant thing, not the surroundings.
It is five days before we celebrate
the feast of Our Lords birth. We still
have time to make it a holyday where
in the event is the important thing,
not the SURROUNDINGS pleasant as
they might be.
Our road to Bethlehem lies ahead.
Christmas 1858 can give "glory to God
in the highest" if we travel it in the

certain amount?
A. There is no set amount
for fulfilling this precept of
the Church. It would seem
that the amount would depend
upon the amount needed by
the particular parish and the
parishioner's ability to con-
tribute. It is the pastors re-
sponsibility to see that a suit
able house of God, school, etc.
is maintained and to present
their responsibility to the
pensioners. He may try to
make clear the approximate
percentage Of income q do not
think any pastor would name
a certain amount of money as
appropriate for alD which
would suffice to meet the par
ish needs. Many Catholics be-
come set in a routine Of CIV
ing and lose sight Of the OBJ
jective needs Of the parish
and the rising costs Of such
institutions. It is not unheard
Of that people are giving small
change in the Sunday collec-
ton just as they did in years
gone by, overlooking the in
creased cost of church and
school maintenance. The only
way q Catholic can commit
serious sin in this regard Is to
disregard common sense and
his conscience preferably un-
der advice Of the confessor)
in favor Of selfish neglect.

HELP FOR THE ORPHANS

No one is more helpless than a little child with.
out parents. The Church, through the watchful care
of Sisters and the dedicated help of foster mothers
and fathers, cares for the weak and helpless. She
cannot substitute parents for needy children, but she
can see that they are cared for.
Your support and help are needed In this task.
In addition to the Christmas collection, perhaps you
can make another contribution now or in the future.
You need only send it to the Chancery Office, 1913
East Broad Street, Columbus Is.
In your Will you can remember this worthy cause
by including this legal statement:
Il hereby give, devise, and bequeath to the Most
Reverend Bishop of the Diocese of Columbus,
Clarence G. Issenmann, and/or his successors, the
sum Of ......... ......... i. ($........) for the use
and benefit of st. Vincent Orphanage, Columbus,

Carols Out OF Place Now
As Allelulias In Holy Week
By Msgr. Irving A. DeBlanc

It Is only fitting that
Christmas Day should be
set apart for it recalls the
incident when there rang
out over the stiffness of
an evening breeze, over the
white chalk hills of Bethle-
hem, the peal of Angels song
announcing a Child is born,
who Is Christ the Saviour.
The English word Christ
mas" when introduced in the
18th Century meant "The
Mass of Christ" And this be-
cause from the earliest centur-
les the birth of Christ was
associated with Midnight
Mass.
Desperate efforts have been
made in recent years - and
with much success--to keep
Christ In Christmas and to
give the occasion greater spir-
itual meaning.
SIGNIFICANT
Whether one is Christian or
not, the birth of Christ has
secular significance as the
era-divider of our history. This
alone is important enough to
justify its c-ommemoration by
all Americans regardless of
creed. II would not be realis-
tic in any sense to erase Beth
lehem" from kindergarten
windows as some today would
have it and to replace 1t with

Sum and Substance:
We Can And Must

BY Fr. John b. Sheerin, esp.
Sum and Substance:

Krushchev has pointed
q gun at the United
States and ordered us out
of Berlin. He tore up the
Potsdam pact with a
grand flourish and addressed
an ultimatum to the Western
powers. Will we get out?
American public OPT n
seems strong for a tough stand
but there are some political
writer's who undoubtedly will
urge that the us. pull out Of
the German city. For years
these experts have been say
ing that the Administration
should be realistic in franz
ing foreign policy, which gen.
orally means that the Admin
istration should forget about
moral law.
IGNORE CONSCIENCE
Hans Morgenthau in his
Politics Among Nations says:
when a nation invokes
world public opinion or the
conscience of mankind in or
der to assure itself, as well as
other nations, that its foreign
policies conform to the stand
ards shared by men every
where, it appeals to nothing
real" Morgenthau Doesn't
really mean that there is moth
ing real about the moral law.
He admits that there is a
moral law of nations but
claims that there is nothing
that even approaches a uni
versal acceptance of the moral
law. For that reason he would
have America forget about
the moral law and r~ealistical-
ly consult enlightened self

to sin because of this tree.
There are two ways of put
ting Christ back into Christ
mas which we might stress:
Christ must be put back into
Advent and there will be no
need to worry about Christ
being in Christmas. More
homemade Advent Wraths
should be put up in our homes
at the beginning of Advent in
early December. The four
white candles on the wreath
should be explained as repre-
senting the members of the
family as well as the four
weeks before Christmas. The
red candle lit near Christ
mas day is made to represent
Christ.
EMPTY CRIB
An empty crib may also be
installed in early Advent.
Little statues of Mary and JOS
epht may be started on their
journey and gradually travel
from window to table and fin
ally arrive on Christmas Eve
to the empty crib. The statue
of the Christ Child appears
only on Christmas Day. The
Magi are to come later.
Advent is a time of prayer
and of penance in prepara-
ton for the coming of Christ.
1t is not a time for celebra-
ton and festivity. Christmas
carols are as out Of place dur
ing Advent as the Allelulia
chorus would be on Good Fri
day.
The cities OF Cincinnati and
Boston have inaugurated the
civic custom Of celebrating
"The Twelve Days Of Christ
mas" from December rs to
January 6. This is the second
way to assure keeping Christ
in Christmas. It also shows
that Christmas is understood
for what 1t is:
Christ's birthday--not man.
mons--not the business mems.
