The Style Shop and Punch ’n THE ITALIAN PEOPLE AND ST. Rev. Bobert Teoli The Italian people have nany patron saints. There are St. An thony of Padua, St. Rocco and St. Lucy, to name only a few. Of course, it goes without say ing that the Blessed Vrgin Mary holds first place in Italian devotion to the Saints. But heading the list of pstron Saints after the Mother of God is St. Joseph, the foster-fsther of Jesus. St. Joseph was born in Pale- Judy will present the show. Mrs. Doyle also announced that on Tuesday, April 21st, the annual silver tea will be pre sented at the Blessed Sacrament Convent and that Mrs. Thomas J. Mahoney will be chairman of this affair. Very Reverend Thomas A. Brennan advised the parents that the pupils will begin their Easter holidays at noon Wed nesday, March 25th. The monthly attendance prize was won by Mrs. Betty Ceto- vich’s sixth grade. Christ Is The Bridge (Continued from Page 1) Church’s hymn to the Easter candle is a solemn commemoration of nothing new. GOD'S OWN MANHOOD God’s nature is reflected in our own, it is true, but the distance that separates Him from us is an infinity. What change does the Paschal mystery make in that? We who are Catholics believe that the Word took on human flesh not for the sake of the Word, for God is already perfect, but for the sanctifying of that flesh. Christ is not God walking around in a body, suppressing all human traits and needs. By faith the Catholic says: “In the Incarnation, the Word takes possession of a human nature and soaks it through with heavenly holiness. It elevates all its actions, sanctifies its every movement. There has been unique manhood in the world thoroughly given over to God because it was God’s own manhood.” This, then, is 'the chief effect of the Incarnation: humanity of the very kind that is ours constituting the link, the bridge on which we walk towards God. We can be espoused to God because there is a bridal chamber now, both of heaven and of earth. In the third of the four Scripture readings of the baptismal service in the Easter Vigil, we read from the pen of Isaia that that Bud of the Lord shall be “ornament and splendor,” that on Mount Sion v/here the Lord is called upon, “His glory will be a veil and a protection over all.” What does that mean? Simply this: that ancient Israel, by any reckoning God’s closest friend, had nonetheless to view His holiness as something outside itself. He showed tlqie people signs of favor but always from without: a cloud of smoke, a flame of fire. He was lover, protector, and guide to them. He was never precisely one of them. They longed for a strong “shoot” of the Lord, who would grow up in their midst and somehow bring them closer to their God. Jesus Christ, the principle of human holiness, is a man among men. In Him we are sanctified no less by God, but through the medium, of our own flesh. Our nature is made capable of holiness because the Spirit has rendered one such human nature all-holy. Christ is the bridge. That is why we bless things at this season and reconcile them to God: fire, water, oil and wax for sacred use; foodstuffs and our homes for everyday. That, too is why we make public profession of oyr baptismal faith at the Vigil. In Christ risen, all men and creatures are made one with God. “Heaven is wedded to earth, and God to man.” THE BATTLE WON Death is on its deathbed and hell’s power is broken, for Christ is the “firstborn from the dead.” The battle has been won. The victory is His—and ours. Death is still at work in the world, to be sure, and so is sin, its cause. They are to be feared, but much more they are to be mocked and derided. About their hold, there is nothing final. The Holy Spirit is already at work in the world, and already man has begun to partake in the Resurrection. He takes the Paschal Eucharist, the food of immortality. It is the very body of Christ who has taken the sting from the serpent’s tooth and sent death sprawling like the dazed sentries in the garden. “In this festival of Easter joys, we beseech thee, therefore Lord, for ourselves thy servants, for all the clergy and thy most devoted people, for our Holy Father, Pope John, and for our Bishop, grant peace to our days; guide, govern and protect us by thy constant care.” MORRIS EWING & SONS REAL ESTATE AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENTS 65 Forsyth St., N.

LOCKE SHOES cr/r stine and one might wonder why a country which has pro duced such emminently holy men and women as Francis of Assisi, Dominic, Catherine of Sienna, Don Bosco, Frances Cabrini and hundreds of like heroic sanctity should pay such great homage to a carpenter of Nazareth. Perhaps the explanation lies in the fact that the life of St. Joseph is so well reflected in the traditional Italian way of life. Joseph was first and foremost, the foster-father of Jesus, the St. Joseph Feast Day Is Marked March 19th was the Feast Day of St. Joseph. On Sunday, March 15th, the members of the Sav annah Italian Club paid special homage to their patrons by at tending a Family Communion at the 8 o’clock Mass at the Ca thedral in Savannah. The Mass was offered by Father Robert J. Tioli, the Club chaplain, in- the presence of His Excellency, Bishop Thomas J. McDonough. In the evening the Club tend ered a banquet in honor of St. Joseph at the Brahma Room on Victory Drive. Father Capitani, Catholic Chaplain at Fort Stewart, Georgia was guest speaker. husband of Mary, the father of the Holy Family. And there is among the Italian people a great reverence and respect for family life. The Italian father is very conscious that his position as head of the family is a God-giv en Vocation in the truest sense of that term. He, like every tru ly Christian father is humbly aware that his wife and the mother of his children is the heart of the family. They find in St. Joseph an emminent ex ample and model. The Italian finds in St. Jos eph a kinship of interest. The foster-Father of Jesus was a carpenter. The men of Italy have ever been known not only as great artists, but also like Joseph, as artisians. It was to St. Joseph that God gave the vocation of spouse of Mary and guardian of Jesus. St. Joseph was the least in or der of dignity among the three members of that Holy Family of Nazareth. And certainly Jos eph, “a just man” was very conscious of this fact. The Holy Family, of which St. Joseph was the head was a poor family. As the wife and child of a village carpenter, Mary and Jesus certainly never enjoyed luxury, but the honesty of Joseph's labor protected them from penury and provided them with the necessities of life. For Joseph, “a just man” was fav ored by God with the direct revelation that he had been chosen to care for the Son of OFFICERS ST. MARY'S HOME GUILD SAINT MARY’S HOME GUILD NAMES OFFICERS FOR YEAR SAVANNAH — On Sunday, March 8th, the Saint Mary’s Home Guild held its semi-an nual meeting and elected the of ficers for the coming year. Mrs. Arthur Fleming will serve as president, Mrs. A. B. . Purdy, vice-president, Miss Regina Lyt- gen, secretary, and Mrs. Walter Crawford as treasurer. Bishop Thomas J. McDonough was high in praise of the Guild’s first successful year of opera tion, and paid tribute to Mr. John Gleason for his many years of untiring effort on behalf of the children at St. Mary’s. Sis ter Mary Michael, R.S.M., ex pressed the gratitude of the staff and girls of the Home for the contribution of the Guild. A group of girls from the Home—The Irish Dancers—gave an entertaining performance of the Irish Jig and the Highland Fling. All the girls then ren dered a salute in song to the new American Flag and the 49th state. St. Mary’s Orphanage Home was organized in Savannah by the Sisters of Mercy in 1875 and was located at White Bluff. Henry Blun donated a site on Habersham St. and in 1883 the home was moved to that site. In 1938 St. Mary’s was transfer red to its present location in the spacious building on Victory Drive, east, which was erected by Archbishop Gerald P. O’ Hara. The home presently houses 45 girls under the supervision of Sister Mary Michael, Superior. The meeting closed with Ben ediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament, celebrated by Bish op McDonough.

With this information in mind, it is not difficult to see why the Church calls St. Joseph the model for fathers, nor why Italians, with their high regard for family ties and responsibili ties had adopted St. Joseph as their chief patron after The Blessed Virgin Mary. 23 A'JIURN AVENUE, N.
