PAGE 8 GLORCIA BULLETIN THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1963 ON COUNCIL Episcopal Men Hear Archbishop Continued From Page 1 Church muse look to the present, to the nev, conditions and new forms of life introduced into the modern world which have opened new avenues to the Catholic Apostuiate.” “As the bishops returned to their Sees, it was this sense of renewal, sweeping through the Christian world, that has opened up “new avenues’* to that unity which is the prayer of Protestants and Orthodox, as well as Catholics. Ameri can bishops, more than ever before, are meeting with churchmen of other faiths, dis cussing the Council, sorting out similar and divergent posit ions, and sharing a serious but congenial concern for the grave needs of modern men. Did the Vatican Council not only open new avenues, but flood them with the kindly light of interreligious dialogue? "THE FIRST session encour aged us to hope so, in two ways, hirst, the overwhelming note on the first chapter of the liturgy is now being appreciated in its full historical context. Although it still awaits the completion of the remaining chapters, and promulgation by the Holy Father, this first chapter has already awakened Catholic hearts in many lands. Two Girls From Rome Two girls from Rome, Georgia, Miss Mary Alice Mc Mahon, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George McMahon, and Elizabeth Drew, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Drew, have been received into Mu Alpha Theta, an international high school and junior college mathematics honor society at Sacred Heart Academy, Cull man, Alabama. "The increased use of the uernacular is only one aspect, making it intelligible to Christ ians of otherfaiths. Protestants may find in the new form of worship a stronger Biblical em phasis, as well as more stress on the homily. Orthodox may find there is room in the Latin Liturgy for Holy Communion under two species, and con-celebration of Mass by more than one priest. These changes will not be a “modernization" not a return to antiquity. They will be a re newal in the true sense; and application of old and honored principles to new and urgent situations. “The second Ecumenical fact from this first session is the Bible itself. More and more of the Council Fathers expressed a desire to center the teaching of theology on the Scriptures themselves. This is a delicate and difficult area, because it was the cry of “Sola Script- ura" which helped divide Christianity in the 16th Century. The Word of God Is the concern of every Christian, but Catho lic and Protestants have diff ered sharply in their interpret ations, “THE ROLE of the living Church as the witness of God’s word must be studied more deeply, and we Invite our Pro testant brethren to join in this study with us. The notable gains in the first session of the Coun cil are the encouragement of Biblical scholarship within the Teaching authority of the Church, and the Reconsiderat ion of the relation between the Bible and tradition. Although nothing definite has been accomplished here, the Catholic attention given to the whole subject is another welcome beam of light on an Ecumeni cal avenue that up to now has hardly been traveled.” ESTES SURGICAL SUPPLY CO.

Garrison, Chairman of the Department of Educational Psychology, University* of Georgia stressed the fact that we have students with pro blems—not problem students. He reminded the teachers of the basic need of the students, particularly affection and security. “In respect to affect ion," he said, “there are two extremes— overindulgence and neglect, and over indulgence is as harmful to a child as ne glect.” PROFESSOR Garrison told the assembled teachers that teenagers feel apart and there seems to be no place for them In today’s world. He recalled his boyhood on the farm where he had many definite chores to do, He knew he was needed and wanted. He stated that teachers and parents can give teenagers a sense of security by giving them a sound phil osophy of life. Another speaker at the In stitute was Sister Mary Jerome, 0. S.
