The "Stations of the Cross" is a de

Is, the sufferings of our divine Lord.
The early Christians had the deepest
loVe and veneration ior the places
made sacred by the sufferings and
presence of Jesus Christ. Devout pil
grims went to the Holy Land, from the
furthest parts of the earth, to visit
Jerusalem, the Garden of Olives, and
Mount Calvary. To encourage the
piety and devotion of her children, the
Church granted many and great in
dulgences to those who with true sor
row visited certain spots of our Lord's
Passion. Now, there were many who
wished to share in this devotion, and
partake of the spiritual blessings at
tached to it, but who, through various
causes, were unable to do so there
fore the Church sanctioned the erect
ing in churches of fourteen pictures
representing fourteen scenes of the
Passion, called "Stations of the Cross,"
and granted to those who practice this
devotion the same indulgences that
are granted to those who visit the holy
gjlaces in Jerusalem.
In former generations, partly be
cause the need of priests was not so
j&arply and so noticeably felt, the
jchstom was to educate those who had

F08TERING VOCATIONS FOR THE
PRIESTHOOD.
Within the last score of years the
conviction has gradually forced itself
upon the bishops of the large dioceses
of this country that the number of
those presenting themselves as cand
idates for the seminary and desirous
of entering the priesthood was slowly
tout surely diminishing, writes Arch
bishop Mundelein.
^They found it necessary to take
•fecial measures to safeguard those
t© whom God has given the grace of
priestly vocation not only during the
jjears of their seminary course of
geology. but even earlier, when fhe
first signs of probable vocation in the
young schoolboy manifested them
selves to the watchful eye of pastor or
confessor.
Mnd colleges under the care of one
tff the teaching orders of the Church,
#here they were associated with other
youths preparing for a professional or
business career and who had no voca
tions for the clerical state.
But everywhere, and particularly in
-large lilies^ we fbund that year
Jtfter year, though the number of our
people was increasing, the number of
those who knocked on the door of the
seminary and asked to be enrolled in
tiie body of the clergy was not grow
ing apace. And not today or yester
day, but for many years past, has the
conviction entered the minds of watch
ful pastors of souls, that the time had
^Vpome when something must be done to
protect the tender shoots of priestly
vocation as soon as they showed them
selves in the clean, pure hearts of
food, bright young boys in our schools,
tp shelter them not only from the kill-
Jbg blasts of sinful temptation, but
also from the chilling atmosphere of
JHodern materialism, the selfish crav-
foney,
for ease, the inordinate love of
the exaggerated spirit of inde
pendence, which comes not only into
#ur schools and colleges, but enters
•ight into the heart of the home itself.
And so we have learned a lesson
front the religious orders of the
Church, who long ago provided spe
cial schools, preparatory novitiates,
monastic scholasticates, in which they
taught and trained and prepared from
early boyhood those who aspire to
lead this more perfect life as members
of their order. And we have argued,
and probably with a great deal of
truth, that, if it be necessary so to
shelter, watch and carefully train
those who will live their lives in the
^community of their brethren in re
ligion and be protected by a special
approved rule of life, how much more
is this necessary for the secular
priest, who so often stands alone, a
Fhining mark for the enemies of re
ligion, who must be a dux populi and a
flamma ignis, of whom it is required
that, though he be in the world, yet
that he be not of it.
It is for this reason that in several
of the dioceses of the country the
bishops have established the more
modern form of the preparatory sem
inary, where the young boy selected
from among his companions by the
pastor or tonfessor, who discerns in
him the probable signs of a vocation,
the piety, intelligence and application
which is required for the candidate for
the holy priesthood, even while re
maining in the sacred circle of the
home and undrr the watchful eye of a
pious mother, is placed apart and edu
cated with tho^e only who look for
ward to that same great work in life,
tho priestly field of labor, keeping
daily before his mind the sublime voca
tion of the priesthood, preserving him
pure and pious by constant exhorta
tion, by daily assistance at the Holy
Sacrifice and by frequent reception of
the sacraments.
MEMBERSHIP IN THET CHURCH.
The Catholic Church is said to be
the only Church that does not demand
moral character as a qualification for
membership.
Why is it that you allow people
known to the world as of questionable
character to be members of your
Church in good standing? Are they in
the fellowship? Why are there so many
wicked, poor and ignorant in your

NQN-CATHOLIC SERVICES/
THE ROCK OF PETER.
(Written for The Catholic Bulletin by
Dr. James Henderson.)
O Peter! Thou upon the rock
Placed there by God's command
To be a light unto our feet,
A lamp within thy hand
To guide us thro' earth's dreary ways,
To feed us with true bread
Of all the shepherds of the flock
To be the first, and head.
Thou guid'st the ship o'er waters deep
And face'st storm tossed wave
The fiercest wind that ever blew
Thy stout heart fain would brave,
And, every time when tides went down
Ah, it must be confessed
You brought her in majestically
To some safe Post of Rest.
Thou lead'st the flock to greening
ways
As loving shepherds would,
The calm of truth rests on thy brow.
Thy ways are understood.
And, humble as the humblest one
You walk through all the day
Ah, well we know thy very look
Keeps every wolf away.

him to pay for the coal used in the
church this winter. But the fuel deal-i
er had delivered the coal to keep the
congregation warm and was entitled
to receive his pay. So the pastor had
to scrape together the wherewithal.
The next day he was reminded that he
would have to pay the interest on the
church mortgage. He didn't like to
it any more. Some of them are dead
(died prematurely from overwork,
their obituaries read), others are in
the midst of congregations which
found a less drastic cure for their pas

the reason for their pastors' "dollar

money to pay the expenses of main

Fasting in the time of St. Cyril of
Jerusalem, St. Basil and St. John
Chrysostom, included abstaining from
wine. It also meant as late as the
ninth and twelfth centuries a total
abstinence from flesh meat from the
first Sunday in Lent till Easter Sun
day. Again the early Christians fol
lowed the custom of the Jews in the
Old Law, who on the days of fast took
but one meal, and that after sunset
Toward the middle of the twelfth and
thirteenth centuries the custom grew
of taking a collation, or slight meal
after the hour of Nones that is, three
o'clock in the afternoon. The voice of
the Sovereign Pontiff has more than
once made itself heard, lamenting as
the occasions arose for fresh dispen
sations, the degeneracy of the times
which rendered them necessary. Ben
edict XIV, in a letter to the bishops,
tells them that "The observance of
Lent is the very badge of the Christian
warfare. By-it we prove that wo are
not 'enemies of the Cross of Christ
By it we avert the scourge of the Di
vine Justice, and gain strength against
the 'princes of darkness.'"
Recreation in Lent.
Again the Scriptures tell us that
"Jesus was led by the Spirit into the
desert." This also contains a great
lesson for us, which the church en
forces by discouraging her children
from frequenting balls, theaters and
other places of amusement in Lent.
To hear the voice of God, "to become
converted to Him," as the Psalmist
says, "with our whole heart," we must
seek solitude. "Therefore behold

36.* Til© Bible Made Known by.Luther.
Objection: Luther again made
known the Bible under the Papacy it
was unknown.
Answer: In any case the Papacy
had the Bible otherwise Luther could
not have found It. He himself admits
that. Long before Luther's transla
tion of the Bible there were fourteen
German translations of the whole
Bible besides many translations of
parts.
Also before the invention ft print
ing Holy Scripture was known not
only to the learned but also to the
people. Thomas a Kempis (tl471)
says: "If one knew the whole Bible
by heart" (1. 1, 2). St. Bernard
(tll53) speaks almost always in the
words of Scripture, and all who read
his writings understood his allusions
to the Bible. This familiarity with
the Bible he owed to a great extent to
his mother, who is said to have known
the whole New Testament and a part
of the Old Testament by heart.
The theologians of the Middle Ages
presupposed such a knowledge of
Scripture among their students that
they quoted their scriptural proofs
only orally and not in writing. In the
Middle Ages also the sermons, sculp
ture, painting and poetry show a great
familiarity with the Bible among the
common people. The whole religious
development of the Middle Ages took
place under the influence of the Bible.
At a time when there were no books
and a manuscript often represented a
fortune, even the fiery zeal of Luther
could not have distributed the Bible
among the people but through in
structions and sermons and the home
education the Christians of that time
knew more about the Bible than many
of our non-Catholics, who, after hav
ing forgotten the few texts they learn
ed in Sunday School, never hear a
sermon nor ever-open a Bible. Just
look at the. many unbelievers W»ppg
Protestants.
You haven't any kind of business to

vision of one of the greatest of the
Popes, and he has at the same time
a heart whose native generosity is
immeasurable. The Holy Father gra
ciously accepts our offerings to assist
the poor.to alleviate suffering, and to
aid tho missionaries in Pagan lands.
There is a material' side of things
with £he Holy See and with the Church
of Christ as there is with otir own
homes, with our business affairs, and
with each one of us. We know how
impossible it is to do. things without
the necessary funds.,
Our offerings to the Holy See trans
lated in the terms of the mind- of
Christ's Vicar do not mean riches, nor
material advancement, nor personal
possessions, but rather an expression
of the love of children for the Vicar
of Christ, and the means to carrjf on
and to extend the work of Christ's
Kingdom.
In times past tlie: Holy See did not
depend upon the faithful for necessary
material resources. Even in pre-war
days the generous offerings of many
of the countries of Europe and of
many of the noble and rich families
gave substantial resources to the Holy
See. It was thus that we had the
Peter's pence collection. It was not
necessary to lay special stress upon
it. It was merely a collection of the
smallest offerings for the See of Peter.
In the United States it did not even
amount to one cent for each Catholic.
Owing to. changed conditions let us
put out of our minds the thought of
Peter's Pence. It is no longer a ques
tion of the smallest offerings, but of
the largest that we can make. Tn
place of Peter!s Penco let us substi
tute "A Christmas Present for the
Holy Father." Let each one give his ot
her best Christmas present to the
Pope. Think of .this gift as if you
were to approach the Holy Father in
person and be permitted to make your
offering to him. What is the most
generous offering that you feel you
could make if you were E§C£iv?d in
audience at the Vatican? tlat be
your offering now.. ,,,
There are in the diocese of Dululh
about 20,000 potential subscribers to
the Christmas offering. The same
amount is hot asked of all, but ratliet
each one is asked to give aceortling to
his or her means. The diocese of Du
luth from tho twenty thousand of its
faithful who can contribute, should*
send a Very substantial offering'.
We tfrge you, 'Reverend dear Fath
er, to bring before your peopie with
the strongest possible emphasis the
importance of the Christmas gift to
the Holy Father. Make 'announce
ments of this offering at least two
Sundays in advance of Christmas. We
