We learn it from our priests, who are obedient to their bishop and who is in com munion with the bishops of the whole Church. But situations may arise in which it is not easy to say what the agreed teaching of the bishop is on this or that point of doctrine. It may be that some new problem arises which has never met Catholics in that form before, and there fore has not had Our Lord’s teaching applied to it. It may be that some new heresy arises calling for a more precise state ment of the denied truth. The bishops may meet in a General Council—as at Trent in the six teenth century and the Vatican three hundred years later. Then the questions at issue can be fully discussed, and the bishops arrive at the statement of their agreement. But there is another organ of infallible teaching, what we may think of as a court of last resort. In the words of the Vatican Definition of 1870, the Pope, the successor of Peter “is endowed with that infallibility with which it has pleased God to endow His Church.” If the Pope issues a solemn definition of the truth of Revelation, to be ac cepted by the whole Church, then that too is certain. We that hear him, hear Christ. Infallibility is not the same thing as Inspiration. In the lat ter—we find it at work in the writers of Scripture—the Holy Ghost may actually put truth into the mind of the man who is to utter it. But in Infallibility, God does not fill the Pope’s mind with truth by a direct act, he guards the Pope’s mouth that there may be no error in the definition, the utterance of truth. A little precision here may save us a great deal of confusion later. For the rest of men there are three possibilities when they are asked a question—they may give the right answer, or the wrong answer, or no answer. For the Pope (defining in the conditions already set out) one of these possibilities vanishes: God will not let him give the wrong answer. That is what Infallibility means. For him there remain two possibilities— he may give the right answer or no answer. Which of these two he will give depends on whether he knows. And he ac quires his knowledge like any other Catholic—he learns what the Church has already taught, studies theology in fact; he con sults the best theologians avail able upon the special problem. Let us say it once more, Infalli bility does not give him knowl edge. It is not Inspiration. But what he does utter comes to us with God’s guarantee, it con tains no error. The exclusion of error is not due to any human virtue; it is solely the act of God. Exami ning it one may feel that God has done the very minimum; but the minimum is wholly sufficient.

DANIEL, President CARROLL S. BROWN, Executive Vice-President WM. B. THOMPSON, Chairman of the Board Dear Doris: My mother thinks it’s a crime for a girl to go dating at the age of 14. Do you agree with her? How old do you think a girl should be before she goes out dating? Sharon Dear Sharon: There’s no definite age at which a girl is. suddenly old enough to date. While it isn’t a “crime” to date at 14 it isn’t the general thing, either. In gerenal, you are old enough to date when you are ready. And when is that? You are ready when you know and are willing to accept the responsi bilities along with the fun of dating. Your mother knows you pretty well. She knows how you handle your responsibilities and how mature you are. It’s really up to her to decide if you QUESTION BOX (Continued from Page 4) one or both of the parties (an evil condemned specifically by Christ as well as by the law of nature) is condoned under cer tain circumstances (infidelity, etc.). THESE ARE JUST three ex amples of how Protestant dogma smiles upon the vicious princi ple that a supposed good end can whitewash totally evil means. Since they respect grave matter, however, it follows that the same principle could be applied—depending upon the personal opinions of Protestant spokesmen—to other issues equally as serious. After all, when human beings begin tam pering with the laws of God and nature, there, is no telling where they will end. Indeed, the constant accusa tion on the part of some Protes tant spokesman that Catholics, and not themselves, espouse the principle that an alleged good end can justify immoral means, may itself be another aspect of their own espousal of it—their own end being, of course, to denigrate the Catholic position. THE CHURCH'S TEACHING in this whole matter can be summed up in a single sentence: A good end does not make evil means moral. In the words of the late Father Edwin Healy: “There are those who (think that) God would be narrow and unreasonable if He considered it a sin painlessly to chloroform a newborn infant whose life could be only a life of pain and deprivation or to tell a ‘harm less’ lie in order to save another from death or' injury. But an action that is intrinsically evil is evil under all circumstances. The end does not justify the means. God has not told us that we may commit an action which is of its nature evil in order that we may escape inconvenience or achieve some desirable out come.” are ready to date at 14. I think a girl of 14, if she is interested, could go on occa sional group dates. But remem ber Sharon, I said occasional— and in groups. This doesn’t mean the two or three times a week variety. It means the spe cial dance, Halloween party variety. And I said, “if she is interested” because many girls even at 16 aren’t yet interested in dating. In dating, as in everything else, you have greater success if you take it easy and learn the rules first. Wouldn’t it be bet ter in your early teens to first learn how to get along with boys? Get to know what they are like, what they talk about and how they act. You learn this in groups at school and par ties. And Sharon, here’s a tip, learning this right at 14 will mean you’ll be far more popular at 18. MILITARY TRAINING EXCELLENT Dear Doris: I will graduate from high school in June. I won’t be able to go to college this year but I will in a year or two. I’m un decided as to whether I should go into the service now or get a job and go to college in two years. What would you suggest? Rich Dear Rich: I suggest two things. First, investigate civilian job oppor tunities. Secondly, thoroughly look into all the military possi bilities. The school’s guidance coun selor or your teacher will be happy to discuss civilian jobs with you. The counselor can probably send you on interviews for first hand information. A good job now might influence your entire life. If you are convinced that a civilian job is just a stop gap to save money for college, a stint in one of the services will do the same thing. And offer other advantages. Each branch of the military offers excellent training in many different fields. By enlisting now, in the one of your choice, you will fulfill your obligation to your country and at the same time get an education which may prepare you for a good job later on. And Rich, don’t act on the ad vice of the bull session quarter back. Get the official word first hand. Make a schedule and visit the recruiting office of each military service. They are open to serve you by answering all your questions. If you can’t go to each one write for the pam phlet explaining its program. All may be addressed at Wash ington 25, D. C. This will keep you busy until graduation. But not too busy to keep you from seeking God’s help. Pray for his guidance. THIS TIME GIRL PAYS Dear Doris: My school is having a Junior Prom.

A new series of postage stamps has been issued by the Vatican to commemorate the month in 1959 when the re- mams of Pope St. Pius X were in Venice. The 15-lire stamp shows Cardinal Sarto leaving Venice to attend the conclave at which he was elected pope. The 35-lire depicts Pope John XXIII praying over the remains before the visit to Venice. The 60-lire pictures the arrival of the gold and crystal casket in Venice. (NC Photos) BISHOP SHEEN TO PRESIDE AT MELKITE CONVENTION Illifllililll HAPEVILLE JEWELRY COMPANY 583-B S.

Sheen of New York will repre sent Patriarch Maximos IV Saigh of Antioch at the Melkite Rite convention to be held here, June 24 through 26. The Bishop was selected by the Sacred Congregation for the Oriental Church in Rome. Acting as personal delegate of the spiritual leader of the world’s Melkite Rite Catholics, he will preside at the conven tion, expected to attract 5,000 persons. Sponsored by the Melkite Laymen’s Association of North America, which represents 14,- 000 Melkite Rite Catholics, the convention’s purposes are to en hance the spiritual and cultural life of Melkite Catholics and to bring about better understand ing of the Melkite and other Eastern rites. St. George Melkite church will be host to the convention, like to go. Although I have a date the problem is about the tickets. I don’t know if I should get the tickets and pay for them or should I let my boy friend pay for them? It would be em barrassing to ask him and I really can afford to pay for them myself. Please advise me what to do. Ronnie Dear Ronnie: When a girl’s school is having a dance the girls invite the boys and pay for the tickets. This is the accepted thing. The boy usually brings you a corsage and provides the trans portation, unless your father or older brother is driving you. Sometimes the boy offers to pay for the tickets. Since you can afford it, spare yourself the embarrassment, and pay for them. If you check with the other girls in your class I’m sure they are doing the same. So forget about it and have a good time.
