to pagan depravity.
It is difficult to see how a
person rightly informed about
the nature of an oath could pos
sibly condone perjury, much
less advise others to commit
such a crime. It is conceivable,
of course, that the enormous
guilt of this crime might not be
understood fully by one who
does not believe in God — an
avowed atheistic communist,
for instance. But then, such a
person’s testimony would al
ways be open to question.
Another possibility, which is
perhaps somewhat common, is
that many individuals who rea
dily swear to tell the truth,
erroneously think that an oath
is no more than a solemn pro
mise; hence its violation entails
no greater guilt than that as
sumed for telling a lie, or break
ing one’s word to tell the truth.
Such individuals, it seems, fail
to appreciate that an oath is
also an act of religion. Yet so
much seems to be self-evident,
in that the witness about to tes
tify is directed to place his
hand on the Bible and swear in
God’s name (“so help me God”
is the usual phrase).
If this latter possibility is
generally verified in a large
percentage of cases, then there
is urgent need that our citizens
be taught the meaning and the
effects of an oath. Certainly, for
example, the religious princi
ples governing the use of an
oath should be taught through
out all our elementary and sec
ondary schools, as well as our
colleges.

kinds of rosaries?
A. The term Rosary is proper
ly used with exclusive ref
erence to the traditional Rosary
of Our Lady. In the words of
Pope Leo XIII:
“The true form of the Rosary
is to be preserved in reference
to the beads by making them
up into five, ten or fifteen de
cades;' likewise, that other
beads, of whatsoever form, are
not to be known by the name of
the Rosary.”
There are other chaplets sim
ilar in form to the Rosary, how
ever. In the past, some of these
have been called “rosaries,” but
in a popular rather than a tech
nical sense. According to
Church regulations, moreover,
no so-called “rosaries” may be
newly introduced without per
mission from the Holy See.
Thus Pope Benedict XIII for
bade:
“. . . all rosaries newly in
vented, or which may be in
vented without the special and
previous permission of the Holy
See, whereby the . . . authentic
Rosary, sacred to God and the
Blessed Virgin Mary, may, to
the prejudice of the faithful, be
set aside.”
Such permission, one theolo
gian notes, has been granted by
the Holy See for a few chaplets.

hemy is the king of them all.
There are lots of other sins
that can be most serious: hat
red of another person, neglect
of duty, and so on. But I think
the point is made.
Lust is a chief enemy of our
salvation, yes. But so are pride,
avarice, envy, sloth, gluttony
and anger. It’s downright un
fair to wink at these six and
act as if we have to learn to
live with them. And dangerous
too.

Theology for
The Layman

to God in confession that all
man had was God’s.
Of course that man should
offer is not the whole story;
unless God approves and ac
cepts, all is vain. There were
occasions in the Old Testament
where God showed His approv
al publicly — as by sending fire
from heaven upon the offering.
But only in the supreme sac
rifice of our redemption does
God show His approval and ac
ceptance publicly, totally. In
the Resurrection God gives the
visible sign that the Priest who
offered His own body and blood
in sacrifice was wholly pleasing
to Him. In the Ascension God
shows visibly that He is actual
ly taking to Himself that which
has been offered to Him.
Christ ascends to His Father,
to be with Him for ever: with
the marks of His sacrifice still,
but now glorious, in His body—
the everlasting reminder that
man’s sin has been expiated,
that the breach has been closed
between God and man, that
they are again as they were in
the beginning of man, at one.
So the Epistle to the Hebrews
(vii. 25) shows Christ in hea
ven, “ever living to make in
tercession for us.”
At the Last Supper, Our Lord
had told the apostles that He
must go; and, answering their
anguish, He gives as the all-
sufficient reason that if He does
not go, the Holy Spirit will not
come. For Christ, everything is
in that. The order broken by
Adam’s sin has been re-estab
lished, or rather a better order
has been established: that was
for the Second Person. Now is
the time for such a rich flowing
of gifts as the soul of men have
never known. And gifts are the
fruit of love, and so are ap
propriated to the Third Person,
who within the Blessed Trinity
is the uttered love of the First
Person and the Second.
At the Last Supper Christ had
promised His followers that
when He went to the Father,
He would send the Holy Spirit.
At the Ascension, on the point
of going to the Father He tells
them to return to Jerusalem,
and await the Holy Spirit’s
coming. Ten days later He de
scended upon them — on Pen
tecost (“fiftieth” the word
means, summing the forty days
from Resurrection to Ascension,
and the ten days from that.)
Before proceeding to the
great question how we are to
be made partakers of Christ’s
redemptive act, we may cast a
brief glance at the Vanquished
in the great conflict fought
upon Calvary, the one who had
been victorious in that first con
flict in the dawn of our history
—Satan.

To Sing At
Dedication
WASHINGTON — One of the
most unusual choirs ever assem
bled will sing at the solemn
dedication of the National
Shrine of the Immaculate Con
ception, Washington, D. C. on
November 20.
The choir will be made up of
150 voices, representing the best
singers in more than a score of
religious houses of study for
men affiliated with the Catholic
University of America here.
Among those taking part are
Atonement Friars, Augustini-
ans, Capuchins, Carmelites,
Christian Brothers, Claretians,
Dominicans, Holy Cross semi
narians, Franciscans, Josephites,
Marists, Oblates of Mary Im
maculate, Oblates of St. Fran
cis de Sales, Pollotines, Paul-
ists, Salvatorians, Stigmatines,
members of Third Order Regu
lar, Trinitarians, Xaverian
Brothers, students at St. Josa-
phat’s Byzantine Rite seminary,
and students from the Theolo
gical College of the Catholic
University, where seminarians
from 55 dioceses are in attend
ance.
The choir is being trained and
will be directed by Father John
C. Seiner, S.S., of the Theolo
gical College. Dr. Conrad Ber
nier of the staff of the Catholic
University will be the organist,
and there will be the further
accompaniment of a 26-piece
section of the university orches
tra.
Father Seiner was for 30
years in charge of music at St.
Mary’s Seminary, Baltimore,
Maryland. He studied for 15
years under Msgr. Leo P. Man-
zetti, who in turn was a pupil
of Msgr. Lorenzo Perosi, the
celebrated Vatican composer
and conductor. For the last
year, Father Seiner has been
spiritual director of the Theo
logical College and assistant
professor of Sacred Eloquence
at the Catholic University. He
is president of the St. Gregory
Society of America, an organi
zation interested in Church mu
sic.
The Mass to be sung by the
large choir will be Missa Dom-
inicalis V. For the imposing en
trance procession of the more
than 200 Cardinals, Archbishops
and Bishops expected to attend,
there will be a fanfare of trum
pets and the choir will sing the
Ecce Sacerdos by Diconius, a
16th century musician. The Cre
do will be a “harmonic recita
tion” composed by Father Sei
ner, who also composed the Te
Deum to be sung, an alternat
ing of chant and harmony. The
Offeratory music by Palestrina
will be a series of invocations
to the Blessed Mother. The pro
per of the Mass will be Greg
orian Chant.
The Star Spangled Banner
will be sung following the Mass,
and the recessional will be a
special hymn which is an Eng
lish translation of the Magnifi
cat. |
as the Passion draws near, Our
Lord is continually conscious of
THE Enemy, mentioning Satan
again and again. Satan was con
scious of Christ too: but he did
not know Christ as Christ knew
him. It is ironical that he rush
ed upon his defeat — for, we
are told by St. Luke and St.
John, that it was he who moved
Judas to betray the Lord to His
slayers.
