long-felt need in the area

books of the question-and-an-

the Catholic opposition to Ma

but the information they give
is seldom complete enough to
provide the Catholic with
really satisfactory answers to
his Protestant friends ques-
tons.

Mr.. Whalen points out that
Masons themselves will al
ways assure prospective men,
bers that there is nothing an
tagonistic to any religious
faith in Masonry, but he goes
on to give more than enough
evidence from the ritual and
the various books of official
formulate to prove the con-
trary.
SECRECY
The Is chapters Of the book
deal exhaustively with Ma
sonic history, organiza t j 0 n,
teachings and ritual. The
much-vaunted secrecy of Ma
sonry the author proves to be
imaginary, since copies of all
the various service books can
easily be had in bookstores
and through mail-order hous-
es. Al the same m e, he
makes the point that, though
the various Masonic oaths are
paid only lip-service by those
who take them, tn texts
thereof are so barbarous and
anti-religious as to make them
irreconcilable with Christian
ity, or, indeed, with any re-
ligious belief.

There is a separate chapter
dealing with "Other Forbid

the Odd Fellows and the
Knights of Pythias. Leo Kills
Encyclical Humanum Genus,
written in 1884 to specifically
condemn Masonry, is given in
full, and there is a good bibli-
ography, mostly of official
Masonic writings.
The descriptions of Mason
ic ritual - lodge meetings,
limitations, and the like, are
c~omplemented by black and
white drawings. There are al
SO charts showing the divi-
sions of Masonry and its rela-
ton to such groups as the
Shrine.
All in all, this is certainly
an indispensable book for the
parish or Catholic college Ii
brary, and the best thing to
present to the Protestant in
quirer who asks about Cath

Ohio Has
AS State

Last Saturday marked the
156th anniversary of the birth
of a state.
Ohio history was in the
making in 1902, as Ohio's first
Constitutional Convention in
Chillicothe was putting the
finishing touches on a Consti-
tuition, the original copy of
which is now in the custody
of Secretary of State Ted w.
Brown. The document was
signed on Nov. % after a
month of deliberation.
The 18th state in the Union
began functioning officially
as a state when the Legisla-
ture met the following March.
DR.. Edwin Tiffin, Ohio's
first governor. was one of the
signers of the Constitution
and was one of the advocates
of statehood. Other Ohio pi-
oneer guests such as General
Rufus Putnam, Thomas Kirk
: er, Thomas Worthington and
Ephriam. Cutler, all familiar
names in the early days of the
Buckeye State, were members
of the convention. The docu-
ment, which is carefully pre-
served, bears exceedingly legi-
BILE handwriting and the sig
natures Of IS persons.
The Constitution of 1902
continued many Of the pre-
cepts set forth in the Ordi-
nance under which the North
west Territory operated and
they form the basis for the
greatly enlarged and often
amended Constitution of 1851,
under which the state now OPP
crates.

was not the light; he pointed
to II. He was fhe welI-ehossn

ward his sacred Target.
John is not the fullness of
Christian manhood; he is a
figure in the womb of time;
the womb of his mother, from
the womb of Herod's dungeon,
bringing nearer the S~aviour's
hour.
A LlTuRCIA
So John deserves to be
called the precursor of the
Redemptive act. II is not
merely because his voice still
announces at Comm u n i o n
time, as from the endless Jor-
dan of time: Behold the
case as in the Saviour's, words
stand for the man: "This is
Lamb of God" But in Johns
my blood which is given for
you" The blood flows in the
direction Of the Church; it de-
serves to be remembered at
the Great C-ommemoration.
In death, his stature smsrs-
Is: he stands forever in ths
Church against the hsIf-hesrt-

Of the word spoken without
intention Of fuifillmenf; the
word that proelsims no truth,
but . lie; and therefore. in
effect, announces the Saw.
ior's absence instead Of His
Advent.
Johns life and death were
truly a lifvrsia: a public act
of worship done for the good
of the Church; it is fitting
then that the Church join his
life, death and victory to the
destiny Of the Saviour he
loved.

Fides Releases
Two Books
For Christmas

To help Catholic readers in
choosing equality Catholic
books a lasting gift,
Fides Publishers has released
a new book on the liturgy
and reprinted last years
Christmas favorite.
j THE MASS CHRISTMAS
AROUND THE ALTAR 1929
was written by the priests of
st. SEVERN. one of the most
interesting parishes in Eu-
rope. This is an explanation
of the liturgical practices of
that parish, and a meditation
on the prayers Of the Mass,
emphasizing the communal
nature of the worship of the
Mass and its Importance in
the life of the parish. This
new release is both an enrich
ing experience and a fascin-
ating story of how a team of
priests, working with their
Pensioners, made a mid
Paris parish into a real com
munity OF the faithful.
THE MEANING OF CHRIST
MAS ($2.75) by A. M. Avril,
O.P. was sold out in one
month prior to Christmas last
year. Fides has just released
the second big printing. This
is a collection of short hom-
lilies for each Sunday Of the
Christmas Cycle of the litur-
gical year. This book has
proven to be ideal sermon
material for Advent through
Epiphany and excellent spiri-
tual reading for anyone who
wants to know what Christmas
really is.

Editors Note: This is the
second in a series which will
appear during Advent.)
It is the luminous John
the Baptist who more
than any other figure
dominates the Advent
i landscape. It might al
most be said: John is per-
petual Advent. It is he who
announces the nearness of the
Z mysterious "hour"; not mere
ly in words; not merely, one
must add, in the splendor of
an austere holiness, but even
tually in his blood.
Near the "One standing in
our midst, whom you know
not" stands "the friend of the
Bridegroom" His friendship
for the Saviour begins with al
sacred act of recognition from
the womb Of his mother; and
the glory of his holiness, spok-
en- by One who was not given
to hyperbole, is a tribute that
will never fail to astound and
delight the church: "None
greater is born to woman than
. John Baptist"
The touch of the Saviour
makes all holy; and the con-
verse is true; only the holy
shall approach the Saviour.
The law must be understood.
1t does not mean that the
Saviour will not suffer sinners
to draw near; that He is not
sent for their sake primarily.
But in all the essential mys-

Books of the Hour
New Book on Masonry
Fills Long Felt Need
by FIR. d. Bernard Theall, O.S.B.

The author readily agrees.
Therefore, 1t is quite possible
that the majority Of these
men never advert 20 the anti.
Christian aspects Of the or
sanization, and are even quite
sincere when they question
the reasons for cafholicism's
opposition to Masonry.
At best, however, this is
foolish inconsistency, and Mr.
h e n. makes especially
strong the point that it is
highly inconsistent for Chris
tian ministers of the gospel to
ally themselves with an or
ganization which, in theory at
least, substitutes for Christ
the ridiculous and purely
imaginary figure of "Hiram
Abiff", a supposed founder of
the Masonic secrets.
DISTINCTIONS
AS in his earlier book, Mr..
Whalen writes with OBJECTIVE
ty and charity. He makes what
would seem to be all the
necessary and possible dis
tinctions between Masonry in
America and that in the Latin
American and European coun-
tries.
He points out that the vic.
Ienfly snti-c Catholic activities
once common to many vari.
cites Of Masonry are now the
almost exclusive preserve Of
the Southern Scottish Rite
lodges, who sponsor The fren-
zied New Age magazine and
other writings Of the same
sort. He gives credit to the
