i 4 QUESTION BOX (Continued from Page 4) more important, our country means the fundamental doc trines underlying the American way of life, the ideas and ideals of the Constitution, the spirit of freedom and human dignity respected by our laws.” V. T DUTIES flow from patriotism? In general, patriol- is:o demands allegiance, loyalty and obedience to law. All are spec .heady enjoined by Christi anity too, of course. Thus our In vine Lord admonished us to ‘'ronder to Caesar the things t: at ore Caesar’s” St. Matthew XXII: 22): St. Peter warned us to “be subject to every human creature for God’s sake, whe ther to the king as supreme, or to governors, as sent through him (and) to honor the king” (I St. Peter 11:13, sq.); and St. Paul wrote: “Let everyone be subject to the higher authori ties, for there exists no authori ty except from God . . .” (Ro mans XIII: 1 sq.). PATRIOTISM requires re spect for duly constituted rulers even though such rulers might be greatly wanting as regards morality in their private lives, since respect for civil rulers is directed toward the office they represent, not to themselves personally. . OBVIOUSLY, all acts preju- dical to the true welfare of one’s country are proscribed by patriotism (hence, a Communist could not be a patriot). In war time a true patriot must re spond, insofar as he is able, to the defense of his country. BECAUSE OF ITS nature as a virtue, finally, patriotism draws the patriot to maintain a sincere and solid interest in his land, to influence others to love it as he himself does, and to do his part in promoting its wel fare internally and internation ally. Heroism Of Past President Of NCCW During Her illness Related By Archbishop O'Boyle THE BULLETIN, August 8, 1959—PAGE 3 Marietta Drug Company YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD DRUG STORE 2523 Roswell Rd.

"Chanty carries its own re ward m mis me as well as trie next, it was me work of me national Council of Catholic Women tnat literally carried her uirougn ner limess,” nren- bisnop Patrick A. OHoyie of Yv amniglon said in his eulogy. The Archbishop spoke at a Requiem Mass oiiered by Aux iliary uishop Philip M. Hannan of Washington, Mrs. Mahoney’s brother. Arcnbishop Pienry J. Oisrien of Hartlord, Conn., where Mrs. Mahoney had lived since lydJ, was present. Mrs. Mahoney, 03, a native of the nation's capital, died (July 20) ot cancer at her parents’ home here. Bne is survived by her husband, who is assistant superintendent of Hartlord, conn., schools; her parents, and seven brothers. Archbishop O’Boyle centered his remarKS on tne tneme that Mrs. Manoney's life “was a vin dication or me rewards of cha rity.” The "dominant and con trolling lorce in ner hie” was cnarity, he said, and sne used her taierus "to forward the work oi cnarity in every aspect of me — personal, domestic, community and even interna tional.” “Charity parries its own re ward in tms life as well as the next,” he said, "it was the wont ot me National Council oi Cath olic Women that literally car ried her through her illness.” “She knew of her illness as early as last July and by the time of the national convention in September, she could scarce* ly walk.

Tne Arcnbisnop noted tnat sne served in rugn omce on tne boams oi, lo organizations. "one serveu because every one of tnem contributed in a special manner to tne spiritual, civic and social welfare of her neighbor,” the prelate said. mrciibishop OTsoyie said that probably Mrs. Manoney’s great est contribution to tne NCCvV was "ner truly Catholic mind winch snowed concern for ail peoples even in tne most re mote parts of tne world.” Tne Arcnbisnop tnen praised an educational program winch sue organized to stuay tne Unit ed Nations and its agencies; her hospitality to foreign visitors and tne Madonna program sue launched. The last provides medical and nutritional aid to clinics throughout tne world. Other woras of praise for Mrs. Manoney came from tne current president of the NCCW, Mrs. Marx a. Theissen, or Covington, Ny., ana from Miss Margaret Meatey, executive secretary of me inwCVV. Mrs. Tneissen said, in part: “heated as sue was, tne eider sister to ner seven orotiters m a ioyat, truly Catnoiie family, Mary Manoney s strength of cnaracter was reflected m her every action. Wherever sue went — and her work took her tne iengtn and breadth of our country and across me sea — her great qualities of mina and heart were evident.” Miss Meaiey said: “Her im mediate concern was with each and every woman in affiliated organizations of the United States, but that concern also was international in its exten sion. Seeing the need oi expec tant mo titers and tne real hun ger of mothers and babies throughout the world, Mrs. Ma honey devised a plan whereby the Catholic women of the U. S. could help alleviate this distress . . . Sne is deeply loved by those who were privileged to be associated with her.” A second Pontifical Requiem Mass tor tne repose of Mrs. Ma honey's soul was offered in St. Justin’s Church, Hartford, on July 27, by Bishop Hannan.

He grew in the womb like any other cniid, and in due course was born into our world in Bethle hem. Of the next thirty years of His life we know little, fie was a carpenter, m Nazareth. Then came me three years oi His pub lic life. He travelled over Pales tine witn me twelve followers tie ha a chosen, the Apos tles, tic preached of God and man, of nit itiitgctom, and of Himself as us founder; by every kind of miracle, of healing especially, He showed that Uod was guar anteeing tne truth of His utter ance. fie was wmiout mercy for the sinfulness of the religious leaders of the Jewish people. They could only want His death, and He gave them the pretext on which, in the name of true leiigion, they might kill Him. For He claimed to be, not Messias only, but God. Upon a charge of blasphemy, they persuaded the Roman gov ernor of Judaea to crucify Him. He was nailed to a cross on a hill called Calvary for three hours till lie died. He was buried, and on the third day He rose again. For forty days more He appeared among His apostles, then ascended into the sky till a cloud bid him from their gaze. In His death, resurrection and ascension mankind is, redeemed. That is the story of our re demption in its barest outline. We must try to see its meaning, or as much of its meaning as is graspabie this side oi death. Tne first step is to pierce as deep as we may into me being of unrist Our Dora. Ana for tins we must read tne Gospels. The newcomer to theology, even if he is not a newcomer to Gospei reading, should at tnis point tn his stuay ao what G. K. ohesier- ton advised—he snouid embark upon a reading of the Gospels as though he had never read them heiore, almost indeed as though he had never heard the story before. He must make the considerable effort to read what is there. Two tilings especially make it difficult for us to read wfiat is mere. The first is the extreme brevi ty of tiie four accounts. They are intensely concentrated, packed with meaning. We must learn to read tnem slowly, comparing one part with another, trying to see what they narrate or de scribe, living them as we read them. The second is that we think we know it already. We shall consider this further in the next article.
