Newspaper Page TextFr. Sheerin (Continued from Page 4) monical varnish,” Bishop J. E, L, Newbigin, a great figure in World Coun cil history, pleaded for nothing less than organic union of all Christian Churches. He saw genuine organic union of all Christians as the revealed will of Christ and he attacked any kind of federation as an ab surdity that would allow Christians to remain content with the sin and scandal of disunity. Advocates of a federation of Churches, he said, envisage a unity to be achieved in the committee room or at the con ference table, not a unity in faith and worship. “They do not grapple with the fact, which any serious reading of the New Testament must sure ly make inescapable, that to speak of a plurality of Church es is strictly absurd.” A Commonwealth of Church es is not enough. It is a nobly- motivated suggestion but I fear it would only delay the achievement of real unity. GOING TO THE PICKRICK?

An ordained priest who had been influenced by Lutheranism—he was really much more of a Protestant than Henry was — Cranmer had been the king’s personal choice for Canterbury follow ing the death of Archbishop Warham. Despite Cranmer’s known heretical learnings (he had also attempted marriage with the niece of Osiander, one of the leading Reformers), his nomination was somehow ap proved in Rome, and he was subsequently consecrated. IT WAS this person who presided over the Protestant- ization of England under Hen ry’s immediate successor, the sickly boy-king. Edward VI (the son of Jane Seymour whom Henry wed after be heading Anne). During Ed ward’s reign, the Eucharistic Sacrifice was abolished toge ther with the whole concept of a sacrificing priesthood. A substitute service for the Mass was invented and promulgated in what is known as The Book of Common Prayer. MORE SIGNIFICANTLY, the ancient ritual of ordaining priests and bishops was essen tially mutilated and altered (the intention of ordaining sacrificing priests, for exam ple, was positively excluded). The new ritual came to be known as the Edwardine Or dinal. UNDER QUEEN ELIZA BETH (1558-1603), the daugh ter of Anne Boleyn, the Pro- testantization of England was consummated. Though she succeeded Catholic Queen Mary on the condition that she would preserve the ancient Faith, Elizabeth revived the Reformation of Henry and Ed ward in a single act. She then proceeded to stamp out Catholicism by bloodshed as well as by law. AMONG THE RELICS Eliz abeth revived was the defi cient Edwardine Ordinal. When, in 1559, she found her state church literally almost without bishops, she prevail ed upon the government to nominate a certain Matthew Parker to Canterbury. When, moreover, not a single true bishop could be compelled to consecrate Parker, Elizabeth had the government call upon four dissenting “bishops,” sur vivors of Edward’s reign, two of whom were really never validly consecrated.

My boy friend has invited me to his home for Christmas din ner but my mother doesn’t want me to go. She says since my grandparents and aunt al ways come it wouldn’t look nice. I have almost accepted his invitation. What should I do? Maureen S. Thank him for the invitation but refuse it. Stay home and have dinner with your family, you can always go to your xriends’s house either before or after dinner for a short vis it. Regardless of the guests it would be rude to leave your parents on Christmas. This is a family day. There’s some thing special about a happy family gathering with grand parents, aunt, etc. It’s extra special when it’s a Christmas gathering to celebrate with The Holy Family the anni versary of the birth of a Son. A family with its own tra ditions is blessed. Traditions such as night prayers, birthday breakfasts and Christmas din ners keep a family happy and secure. You are lucky, Mau reen. Be sure to tell your mother how happy and grate ful you are to have dinner at home on Christmas. » * * HONOR STUDENT Dear Doris: I’m a junior in a boys high school and ever since first year I have made the honor roil. But my mother is never completely satisfied with my grades. She seems to think I can do better. What can I do to prove to her I really am doing my best? Andy All parents want their chil dren to do their best. Mothers especially have high hopes for their sons. And sometimes they push too hard. Your mo ther reads and hears from all sources about the terrific com petition in education; about me scarcity of colleges and faculty in the next few years; about the vast numbers of young people who won’t get into college. She is probably concerned about your chances in such a situation. This is too oad. nowever, an invalid formula in accordance with the Ed wardine Ordinal. With this same formula, Parker then consecrated the rest of the bishops” appointed by the Queen to fill England’s Sees. SINCE THE ANGLICAN hierarchy traces its present episcopal and sacredotai status to Parker, then, its orders are invalid. The defect in the Ed wardine Ordinal was rectified, incidentally, in 1662—a centu ry too late. •*\Ve Don’t Overcharge” CHAMBLEE LAWN MOWER SERVICE Parts and Repairing For All Leading Makes - Karts Serviced and Repaired Clinton - Briggs & Stratton, Etc. 4872 Buford iivvy. Across from Camp’s Chevrolet If you are really doing your best arid making the honor roll each month this should be satisfactory. Ask your class ad visor or the principal to speak to her. They can tell her if you are working to capacity. This should calm her anxiety. * * * SECRECY OF PRIVACY? Dear Doris: I’m 13 and not allowed any freedom or privacy. I would appreciate some privacy just as well as my mother. I want a diary but 1 know she would read it. And I’m not allowed out in the evening even for birthday parties later than 9 o’clock. I would appreciate ad- v i c e on how to make my mother realize I would like freedom and privacy. Audrey You’re just entering adoles cence and it’s naturalto want more freedom. But if you re ceived all you want you would resent it. Wise parents give freedom a little at a time. In this way you learn how to use it. You also learn the respon sibilities that go with it. Prove to your mother you’re ready for more by not griping about what you already have, instead, use it well, keep your word, obey graciously. You may be allowed to remain lat er at the next party. Everyone needs a certain amount of privacy. Some teen agers mistake secrecy for pri vacy. When your mother asks a question you think she is be ing “nosy.” You forget your mother is interested in you. Discuss your activities with her. Let her know your hopes and your plans. In fact the more you talk about the things you do the less likely she will oe to ask questions. Tell her you would like a diary. She may even buy you one for Christmas. And I doubt very mucn if she has the desire or the time to read it. * * * TOO MANY QUESTIONS Dear Doris: When you have a friend you admire very much but she doesn’t think much of you wriac do you do? In our school we have junior sisters. My Junior sister and I have been friends for quite a while but it is always tne same. Everytime 1 ask ner a question she tells me to ask someone else. Lucy Are your asking too many questions? She may feel you are using her just for informa tion and not interested in her as a friend. Invite her to have a Coke with you and just talk. Show her you like to be with her even when you don’t need something. Doris Jievere Peters answers letters through, her column, not by mail, f lease do not ask foi a personal reply.

Symbols exnress abstract ideas that cannot be pictured in any other way. Christian symbols often express the relationship between God and man. Above, the Christmas ornament, a typical American symbol of Christmas, represents the universe or world. Backed by a sprig of green-for-hope evergreen the Holy Trinity appears in its mystical relationship to the Bap tism of Christ (the fish in the water) by St. John the Bap tist. The Holy Spirit, spirit of love and meaning of Christ mas, hovers over all bathed in the light of the Father which comes from the cloud, dispelling the night of sin and the Old Dispensation. It is one of the illustrations in the new book “Christmas Every Christmas” by Hubert Dunphy, O.F.M. Conv., the November selection of the Catholic Literary Foun dation, a family book club. YOUNG POLES RESIST RED ATTEMPTS TO BRAINWASH THEM OF CATHOLIC FAITH BERLIN, (NC) — Commun ist periodicals from Red-ruled Poland received here complain that young Poles are resisting government attempts to edu cate them into atheism. The atheist journal, Argu- menty, has reported that de spite intensive antireligious propaganda, 78 per cent of col lege students admit to re ligious belief. The atheist fortnightly, Fac- ty i Mysli, a leader in anti- religious propaganda in Pol and, attributes youthful resist ance to atheistic efforts to a powerful counterattack from tne Church. It said: “Lenten: retreats for young men are precisely worked out with respect to method and argument. The Church knows now to exert pressure on hu- psycnoiogy . . . The Church is a great teacher . . . it organizes Lenten retreats lor men and students with the motto: ‘You have come from God, you must return to God’.” Facty i Mysli continued: “Catholic education is also fos tered by various directives of the chanceries, by premarital instruction, by methods of ac tivating children at Mass . . . The Church is a splendid orga nization, rich in tradition and tested methods of educational mlluence.” The Bishops of Poland at tribute the resistance of Cath olics to an energetic and apos tolic laity. They said (Sept 4) in a pas toral letter: “Thank God that the great idea of lay apostle- ship is spreading more and more. Lay Catholics are in creasingly conscious of their responsibility for the fate of the Church of God, and are increasingly standing shoul- der-to-shoulder with the priests.” Polish Education Minister Waclaw Tuiodziecki announc ed the communist govern ment’s drive for the minds of youth in a nationwide radio address to Polish teachers at the beginning of the school year. His threat to religious edu cation was veiled in Marxist terminology but its meaning was perfectly clear to his hear ers, both Marxist and Catholic. “We have already introduc ed this year certain changes in the plans and programs of what is taught, m preparation for a school reform,” lie said, "ihis concerns also the forma tion of a (Marxist) worldview, the understanding of events in tne spirit of dialectical materi alism, and the realization that our school has a secular cna- racter. “This makes it necessary for every teacner to take up a firm fight against reaction, ignor ance and backwardness, both in the school and in his own circle.” The words “reaction and ig norance” refer, in Marxist parlance, to the Catholic Faith and its practice.

Hofsgrund in the Black Forest again this year will be a center of attraction for nu merous faithful who wish to attend Christmas midnight Mass in the church which has the highest location of all Catholic parish churches of Germany. Hofsgrund is located on the Sciiauinsland Mountain over looking the Rhine valley and neighboring Switzerland, at an attitude of 3,180 feet. CHURCH JAMMED The small Catholic church was dedicated in 1810 for the local community which then numbered but 330 souls. Soon, however, tourists, especially those engaged in ski sports over the Christmas holidays, joined the local congregation, and now they jam the narrow nave far beyond capacity while snow storms may be raging outdoors, or a starlit clear sky may be admired from this mountain loft at temperatures far below zero. Last year the then Auxili ary, now Archbishop Hermann Schaeufele, Ordinary of this diocese dedicated a larger ctiurch near-by so as to ac commodate the growing num ber of visitors to this scenic spot. But the little old church still attracts many of them, especially because of the beau tiful hand - carved Nativity creche made by local artists. Not far from the Schauins- land is located the “Svabian Bethlehem,” a small commun ity near Laupheim in Wuert- temberg dating back to the Middle Ages. There is another locality in that same State bearing the name of the birthplace of Our Lord. That is Bethlehem in the principality of Holienzoliern, close to tne convent of Kloster Waid which once was owned by Cistercian nuns and now nouses a girls’ school of the Sisters of tot. Lioba. In the Cistercian days the nuns used to go outdoors Christmas night and sing the “Korate” unaer tne wintery sky. EDIBLE ART Traveling north from Laup- iieiin, one soon readies tne ancient town of Cransheim, now a ranroad center wliere another Cmisimas tradition is nept alive tnat attracts many a visitor. Tne local bakeries make Christmas cookies call ed “Doggeie'' and "Reiter” wnich Hie nand-painted. Two hundred years ago these bakeries were extremeiy popuiar. Enure lamiiies were engaged in preparing tne cook ies, tue latner oemg in cnarge or goid, sliver and red, tne motner and cniidren in cnarge ol ouier colors used to deco rate tnese delicacies. Some times it would take a wnoie nour to paint just one cookie, most of the models being xmghts and grand ladies ot tne Rococo days when armor and jewelries and dresses were decorated elaborately. The an cient models used are still kept in the Craiisheim museum. Yoke of egg and other edibles are used tor the coloring of these tasty holiday treats. E. B. Rice & Co.
