*The Creation of Man," the thirteenth
termon of a series, was prepared by
th$ .Rev. James Franchi, of Plains,
Mont.
"THE CREATION OF MAN."
In the preceding instructions we
have treated the creation of the phy
sical world, and the creation of the
angels, the spirit world. Today we
1? shall consider the creation of man,
the link connecting the physical and
•the spiritual world. By liis body man
belongs to the world of matter, by
his soul he is part of the spirit world.
I The body is the earthly habitation of
the soul. The soul is the life of the
body. Take away the soul and tlfe
body turns into dust. The soul is the
guide of the body, as is the driver of
his steed or the captain of his ship.
The body is a good servant of the
s«oul, Jaut a* bad master.

Evolution Theory Untenable.
Notwithstanding this plain and di
rect statement, ot the Bible, Charles
Darwin and E. Haeckel and their
-followers believe man to have been
evolved from the animal kingdom and
to be descendant of a collateral line
of apes. This opinion is based on the
theory of absolute evolution which is
opposed riot less to faith than to
treason. "For it contradicts the ob
*jous sense of scripture and the con
lltant teaching of the Church, and -it
fitipposes the eternity of matter, spon
taneous generation, and the evolu
tion of species by blind chance, which
tluree theories are equally untenable.
Line Not Back to Ape.
Mivart maintained that at least
the human body was formed by evolu
tion from lower animals, and that
God made man by breathing a soul
into the body of one of the lower
animals, the ape. But all attempts
to prove this tbeory have failed so
far. The difference between man and
the ape is far greater than appears
at first sight. Man has a long period
of growth and gradual development
of his faculties the ape shoots up
very quickly to full development. The
rape lives only about 30 years, whilst
iman frequently attains the age of 80
or even 100 years. Man's organs are
so arranged that he is essentially a
walker, while the ape's organs make
hiin a climber. As A. de Quatrefages
asserts, "A walking animal cannot be
descended from a climbing one." The
ffecial angle of mammals varies from
1C to 45 degrees, but in man it is at
jcast 65 degrees. The average weight
of in ape's brain is 13 ounces, whilst
man's brain weighs 35 ounces, the
•weight of the brain to the body be
ing as one to 70 in an ape, and as one
to 35 in man. After birth the human
brain grows 1,000 cubic centimetres,
saind that of the gorilla ape only six
"§bbic centimetres. As Platz asserts,
V
Pentecost Island, one of the New
Hebrides group, has been swept by a
terrible cyclone. The missions there,
in charge of the Society of Mary, were
well established with churches, con
vents and presbyteries now til the
buildings are total ruins.
A special pathos is added to this dis
aster by the fact that it is a repetition.
Jn 1918, a similar great wind created
Siavoc in the island, and compelled the
leathers to begin practically out of the
Jiew. Their reconstructed schools and
(chapels had just been completed and
filled with converted natives wbm tbe

Sermon on the Apostles' Creed.
s
As Recorded in Genesis.
Closes gave the Jews a positive
history of creation in the book of
Genesis, written under the inspira
tion of God* "God said*. Let us make
man to our image and likeness, and
let him have dominion over the fishes
of the sea and the fowls of the air,
and the beasts, and the whole earth
and every creeping creature that
moVeth upon the earth The Lord
God formed man of the slime of the
earth, and breathed into his face the
breath of life, and man became a liv
ing soul The Lord God said.
It is not good for man to be alone
let us make him a help like unto
himself Then the Lord God
cast a deep sleep upon Adam, and
when he was fast asleep. He took
me of his ribs, and... .built the rib
......into a woman, and brought her
Adam. And Adam said: This now
is bone of my bone, and flesh of my
flesh, she shall be called woman, be
cause she was taken out of man....
And Adam called the name of his
•Wife Eve, because she was the mother
Of all the living And God blessed
vthem
saying: Increase and multiply
and fill the earth, and subdue it, and
rale over the fishes of the se&., and
the fowls of the air, and all living
creatures that move upon the earth
(Gen. 1:26 11:7, 18, 21-23, vi:20, I, 28.)
These words of holy writ declare
r.ot only in a general way that man
was created by God, but desgribe in
detail the formation of the body of
Adam from the slime of the earth
and of the body of Eve from a rib
•taken from Adam. Again, scripture
attributes the creation of the soul to
the immediate action of God—God
"breathed into his face the breath of
life and man became a living soul."
V
'An Ape retains the brain of a child
throughout life, although its mouth
equals that of an ox in size." The
a-pe has neither chin nor forehead
Man has the gift of speeclf, the ape
has not. "Speech," says Mueller, "is the
Rubicon, and no beast will venture
to cross it." Man has intelligence and
tree will the ape has instinct and
impulse. Explain to an ape that two
and two make four, that God made
the world, that there is a hereafter,
and yon will labor in Vain because
the ape cannot grasp a universal idea
Man is capable of the highest culti­J'lle
vation the ape is not.
Fallacy of "Missing-Link.?
To evade the strength of this
argument, would-be-scientists hit on
the idea of a "missing-link," meaning
by this a pre-historic being half man,
half ape, descended, of course, from
the ape and forbear of man. But, so
far, no one has seen or heard the
"missing-link the poor thing has ex
isted only in the imagination of some
scientists. Doubtless some lytve look
ed for the "missing-link" in a true
spirit of scientific investigation but it
is not unlikely that many would fain
admit their descent from the ape so
as to lose sight of their true relation
to God and to escape the obligation
of keeping His commandments* To
them we may w^ell apply these words
of scripture, "Man when he was in
honor did not understand fie hath
been compared to senseless beasts and
made like them." (Ps. xlvii, 21.)

TEACHING CATECHISM.
"(?orn beef and cabbage are good
in themselves. The combination makes
a fine meal for a man who has spent
a day at hard work, but corn beef
and cabbage are not good for a year
old child. The mother who would put
such a dish before a babe of such an
age has something mentally wrong
with her," declared Monsignor Ed
ward A. Pace, of the Catholic Univer
sity, in a recent lecture at the Sisters'
institute at Loyola College Hall, Bal
timore.
"Boys and girls must be taught to
turn over words in their minds and
not be left to turn them over merely
on their tongues," declared the Mon
signor. Pupils of the Catholic schools
must be taught to think about their
religion. They must not learn so
many words for the mere sake of re
peating them in graphophone style.
The child will rattle off a definition
about "transubstantiation" without
knowing anything in the world about
that doctrine. v
THE NAPOLEONIC DIVORCES.
Napoleon was married to Josephine
de Beauharnais, March 9, 1796, by a
civil ceremony only. On December 1/
1804, the day preceding the corona
tion of Napoleon, Josephine mentioned
this fact to Pius VIT, who had shared
the common belief that she had been
married according to the laws of the
Church.
Napoleon, who desired to be free to
contract another marriage in hopes of
an heir to the throne of France, was
greatly displeased at this disclosure.
Yet he hoped still to leave a loophole
in the religious marriage ceremony,
which was performed on the eve of
the coronation by Cardinal Fesch, by
purposely incurring the impediment
of clandestinity which reqyired the
presence of the parish priest and two
witnesses.
The Pontiff, however, granted to the
cardinal the necessary dispensation
from this impediment, so that the
marriage was valid. Thus. Prince
Jerome Napoleon in 1887 ("Napoleon
and his Detractors") wrote: "Napo
leon and Josephine, who had been
only civilly married in the time of
the Directory, were united religiously
by Cardinal Fesch, in-'order to satisfy
the scruples of Josephine, on the
evening preceding the consecration,
and in the presence of Talleyrand
and Berthier, in the chapel of the
Tuileries. I know this from the. tradi
tions of my family."
The tribunal which declared the
nullity of this marriage, therefore,
acted on false testimony which denied
the religious marriage, and exercised
an authority it did not possess, for the
Pope is the proper judge in such cas
es. The Pope had nothing whatsoever
to do with the case. It never was
brought before him.
As for the marriage of Jerome Bon
aparte with'Miss Patterson in 1803,

One of the Marist missionaries, Rev,
JP. Gonnet, says that in his own sta
tion at Loltong, there is not a roof
left. He himself sleeps under the

put together. The loss to the mis
sions of Pentecost is appalling, and
they were the most promising in the
Vicariate. But though cast down, the
patient priests are not yet discour

ill-fated structures. Let us hope this

CARLOTTA'S LOSf CRUTCHES.
She slipped downstairs so lightly
that Monday morning that crutches
eroed the last tiling to be associated
with her. But she was hardly seated
the breakfast table before the ne
cessity for them began to appear.
"Mattie, I promised to get that
book of recitations to Ethel, and now
I shan't have time. Could you go UP
ttiere some time today?
Mattie, her sister, three years older,
looked frankly dismayed.
"Oh, Carlotta! I'v.e got such a busy
day planned. The dressmaker is com
ing and I thought if I worked with
her, W3 could pretty nearly finish
making over my blue serge."
"Well, I'm sure I don't know what
Ethel will do," remarked Carlotta.
"The entertainment is on Friday, you
know) and Ethel is verx, sJow about
learning anything."
The older sister drew a ^ong, re
signed breath.
"I'll have to take it, of. .course,
she said, "but I don't know feow to
spare the time."
That conversation was Characteris

dependent on human crutches. If she
were going Out for the evening, the
other members of the family were
called upon to get her ready. Would
Mattie mind running fresh ribbon In

then brother^ l|ob
vwas sum
moned from his game"eheekefrS
with his father.,
"Bob, please shine my pumps for
me. don't want to get my fingers
all black.
And after a little, mother would be
called on to hunt ffcr Carlotta's lace
edged handkerchief.'
After the door closed upon her, the
family all sat down and took long
breaths of relief.
As a matter of f^ce, Carlotta hardly
realized that she was making use
of crutches. It did not occur, to her
that she was especially' dependent.
There was always someone at hand to
do the thing she had left undone to
make up for her lalck of foresight and
her neglected preparation. And so
CarTOtta went on her way very well
satisfied with, herself, and not at all
conscious of her crutches
It was Aunt Margarot who opened
her eyes. Coming for a visit to -her.
brother's family, Aunt Margaret had
watched with grave disapproval Car
lotta's way of relying on other people
to do the things she herself should
have done. It would not be an easy
matter, Aunt Margaret realized, to
help Carlotta correct that fault. A
severe lesion Vould be necessary.
Aunt Margaret wondered what form
that lesson should take.
From her brother's house""'Aunt
Margaret'was going out West, stop
ping for a time in Chicago and then
taking a wonderful trip that included
Pike's Peak and the Yellowstone and
California. Carlotta's eye always
grew very big when Aunt Margaret
discussed her plans.
It „sounds like taking a -trip to
fairyland," she declared one day.
Yunt: Margaret looked at her very
thoughtfully.
"Would you like to go with me,
Carlotta?"
"Like to go?" Carlotta flushed as
fhe repeated the question. "Like to,
Aunt Margaret! Why, it would be
the most wonderful thing I ever heard
of."
Aunt Margaret reflected.
S "I am going home next weekrrand
start/the 19th. If you meet me
the afternoon jbf the 19th at Marden
Junction, I will take yoii^ .with me,
provided,^ot eourse, y#arr parents are
willing."
a
Carlotta started, unable to believe
her ears.
"You'll take me—oh. Aunt Mar
garet, you must be joking,**
Her aunt smiled.
"I'm not joking, Carlotta, bttt there
is a c#idition. You must get ready
without any assistance."
"Get ready—why, I don't knbw what
you mean?"
"You must rely on yourself in mak
ing your preparations, just as though
the family did not exist. You must
buy your own ticket, order your own.

Within the next twenty four hour?
all of Carlotta's friend^ had heard
about her western trip, ^he did not
trouble them toth the condition." In
deed, she seldom thought of it her
self. But before Aunt Margaret left,
she called the family into council and
made the "if"' so emphatic that Car
lotta began to realized that it must be
reckoned with.
Aunt Margaret "had looked over
Carlotta's wardrobe and made out a
list of things for her to take. ThcrcV
was also a sh.qrt list of accessary pur
chases. She gave this into Carlotta'^
hands.
"I want you to buy these things
yourself, Carlotta," she paid. "And
I do not wish the others oven to re
mind yon'of what you have to do."
"They won't, need to," Carlotta
laughed. "I shan't- be abler to think
of anythips oSsfe/j"'*

Showed their friendliness by shower*
ing her with invitations. Not till the
r.fternoon of the 18th did she get
down .town- to make the necessary par
chases. And then siie was in a hurry.
She made her" selections hastily, or
dered the purchases sent out, and
then went out to LyJia's, where she
was to take dinner,
It was nearly bedtime when Carlpt
la reached home.
Where are the packages from
Eastmen's?" she asked eagerly.
Her mother looked up from her
sewing.
I haven.*t s$e£. Anything from East
men's."
"Why, they promised to ^deliver
them todayv Isn't that provoking?
Mattie, you'll have' to go downtowit
right after breakfast—"
Her sister lowered her book.
"I'm afraid I can't, Carlotta. That
wouldn't be playing fair with Aunt
Margaret."
Carlotta colored-.
"Why, I didn't'•"•think. I'll just get
what I need in Chicago. East.men will
have to take those back because they
were not delivered when they prom

article that she had forgotten.- And
then, as sh'e turned the key for the

had not ordered the expressman to
call for her trunk. She rushed to tbe

around again until nooii.

The expression relented.' In that
case he would try to send a man by
10 o'clock.

It seemed to Carlotta she would'
never get dressed. She was accus
tomed to having someone at hand to
find her hairpins or bring her comb
or button up her shoes. It was terri
ble to have to do everything for her
self. Thi expressman came at 10
o'clock, but even after the trunk was
gone she found she had a number of
things to ck). And when she reached
the corner and hailed the" street car,
she suddenly realized that she had left
her purse lyifig on the bed.
When at length she reached the
station Mattie stood waiting for-hpr.
"Where's mother?" panted Carlotta,
hurrying up. "I'^e got to check my
trunk, after I've bought my ticket."
Mattie looked at her queerly. Car
lotta's eyes went to the clock. She
took a step backward.
"It's been gone two minutes," said
Mattie, wiping her eyes. "Carlotta,
dear, I'm so stfrry—"
Carlotta recovered.
"I'll just go on to Chicago," she ex
claimed. "And meet Aunt Margaret
there: She couldn't mean—"
She stopped for Mattie handed her
a letter. "Aunt Margaret left this
tc give to you in case—-in case any
thing went wrong." .'
Carlotta broke the seal without a
vflord. This is what she read:
"My Dear Carlotta—If you meet
me at the Junction as planned, you
will never see this letter, but I think
you will read it You have formed

HI STORY OF CATHOLIC CHURCH,
MISSOULA* MOfftV
Early in the year 1,8S3 Father IJ.
Grassi, who was in charge .of-the In
dian Mission of Saint Ignatius, erect
ed a church for the white settlers. .Iii
tbe spring of 1866 .Fathers Anthony
Ravalli and Camillus Imoda were as
signed to this field known as Hell's
Gate District. A porta inferi erud,
Domine, animas eorum (From the gatb
of hell, O Lord, deliver their souls)'.
Father C. Iinoda was called to Helena
si ortly after his arrival,/leaving Fa
ther Ravalli in charge of this new mis
sion, where he stayed for three years
doing much good both as missionary
and skilled physician, after which be
assigned to Saint Mary's. Fathefr
GiOrda and Brother Claessens, beforfe
him, had lived much pf the tiine in an
Indian home v/hich was given for thefr
temporary use, so Father Ravalli did
qot move thither until some dwelling
accommodations' had been provided.
Upon moving to Saint Mary's the spir
itual care of Hell'!. Gate District fell
to Father Menetf'ey, who held it fdir
many years. Missoula some four mile&
distant was ^growing rapidly and by
18G8 had left Hell's Gate village fail*
bthind. The 'Catholics of this village
had no other church to*, attend so
would gather at Hell's Gale to hear
Mass en Sunday... An eiTort was made
to establish, a church there', but the
first move in this direction was not
made until 1872 when Mother Caron
cr.rae.tp visit at the Indian Mission of
Saint Ignatius. Seeing th9 need of a
now church for the people of Missoula
she laid the matter before her coun
cilors in Montreal and,also before
R1ther Gibrda, the Superior of th^
Missions. After some time an agree
ment was reached and a site includ
ing a* new frame building was pur-*
chased. The property was secured^
for church, hospital and' school pur
poses at a consideration of $1,525.
One block was given over for the acad

were to start the Missoula branch
