(Photograph by Derickson Studio) JESUS OF NAZARETH IS PASSING BY" Home And Mother, Not Nursery School Place For 2-Year-Olds Open Letter To A Patient Dear Patient, It is about seven a. m. Dawn of another day brings the hust ling corps of personnel into the hospital to begin the various ac tivities for care of the sick. At the time of greatest activi ty, there is a momentary pause. The sound of the silver bell is heard and all stop in reverent prayer. Strangers who hear it for the first time will naturally ask with the blind man of the Gospel who heard a crowd pass ing on the road to Jericho, “What might this be?” They will be rightfully answered “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.” They have but to view the respect and reverence shown to know that a great Visitor is passing by. It is the most important mo ment. for the Catholic patient who receives Holy Communion. We all have need of the food of eternal life, but for the sick this need is acute. You should desire to receive every day while at the hospital. To arouse this de sire, it is not sufficient that you be conscious in an abstract way of the Catholic doctrine of The Holy Eucharist, that Christ is present P>ody, Soul and. Divini ty. You must have the truth of faith alive and rgal and be con vinced in a practical way that this is the Bread come down from heaven. Christ promised to give Himself to us as a food for our souls; “I am the Living Bread that has come down from Heaven. If anyone eat of this Bread he shall live forever and the Bread that I will give is My Flesh for the life of the world.’ (John 6:15) The Eucharist is the only real, permanent miraculous medicine. St. Augustine, great philoso pher, describes the riches of The Gift of God in these words: “God all-wise though He be, knows nothing better; all-pow erful though He be, can do no thing more excellent; infinitely rich though He be, has nothing more precious to give; than the Eucharist.” In comparison with this health-giving food all the scientific medications and treat ment available in a hospital pale into insignificance. A. K. HAWKES COMPANY EXPERTS IN EYE CARE AND IN ALL OPTICAL NEEDS JA. 2-9178 83 Whitehall St., S. W. Atlanta, Ga. HILLARD PLUMBING & HEATING GO. MUENSTEER, Sask., (NC) — A Catholic newspaper here has taken issue with the head of the Ontario Council for Childhood Education who advocated that Canadian parents should start their children to school at the age of two. “The average two-year-old is far better off in the care of a good mother than in the hands of a nursery school teacher,” the Prairie Messenger declared. The weekly paper is published by the Benedictine Fathers and has a large circulation in the Pro vince of Saskatchewan. The head of the childhood education council contended that “youngsters . really need companionship of children of their own age when they are about two” and at nursery school they are taught to get along with other children. The Prairie Messenger said it was not trying to belittle the work of nursery schools and that many children benefited from such institutions. But, the paper added: “Though a mother may not have all the scientific data and the latest pargon from a 1958 child psychology course at her fingertips, it seems to us that the average two-year-old is far better off in the care of a good mother than in the hands of a nursery school teacher. The first and most important teacher and the first and most important school is the mother and the home. “If our economic system has ordained it that this cannot be so, that the mother must fol low the father into the factory or office and the children have to be sent to the nursery or kindergarten, a decidedly un healthy state of affairs has arisen. “A mother belongs at home. Her primary work is to see to the early formation, physical, mental and spiritual, of her children. t If she is ill-equipped for that, then the answer is schools for parents, not nurs eries and kindergartens for the kids.” FIRST SISTER INTERNS AT BELLEVUE NEW YORK, (NC) — A Sis ter is quietly making hospital histoi’y here — : she is said to be the first nun to intern at this city’s famed Bellevue Medical Center founded in 1736. Sister Mary Thomas More, a member of the Missionary Sis ters of the Society of Mary, makes her rounds in flowing white habit and coif with the intern’s characteristic short white jacket over the habit. Sister More, called “Doctor More” by patients, has been at Bellevue for a month. “Patients are getting used to me,” she said. “Some of them used to take me for a nurse and one woman asked if I was the dieti cian,” she said. A native of Brooklyn, the nun began her career by study ing pre-medical subjects at Fordham University here. “For me, it was a choice between be coming a nun or becoming a doctor.” She chose to enter the Society of Mary in 1951. But after tak ing her vows, her superiors ask ed if she would like to study medicine at Marquette Universi ty, Milwaukee. “I jumped at the chance,” she said. Last June, she was graduated with her M.D. “Most people only fulfill one goal in their lifetime. Here I’m tele scoping two,” she said. After a year of interning, Sis ter expects to study tropical medicine for a year before as signment to a mission, prob ably in the South Pacific. But in the meantime, she’ll be at Bellevue and her duties for the next month will take her around the city in ambulances. 287 NORTH AVE., N. E. TR. 2-9454 ATLANTA, GA.
