FOCH AND BENSON EXEMPLARS | FOR NORWICH CATHOLICS Reviewing the reasons for grati- tude at the end of the four years’' war, Rev. Peter J. Cuny, in his sermon at the high mass in St. Patrick’s church Sunday, reminded his hearers of the responsibility of the individual in helping continue the ;present condi- tion of world-wide peace, Whoso will study deeply and with hroad vision the history of the chosen people of old will discover that when they kept to God's laws they had peace. Israel before the Kings had demccracy, with laws given by God Himself interpret- ed by the Judges, men who through their ability had pushed themselves up from the people. As soon as obedience to the laws was forsaken, there fol- lowed inevitably wars, exile, civic strife. In ending thé great war God has again taught that Right will ever pre- vail over Might, and there is in this a consoling lesson for the individual, that no matter how long delayed, Rifht must at last prevail. As history repeats itself. there is the responsibility of individuals not only to obey the laws, but to vote for those laws which imply the best safe- guard of order and liberty; how. many consider this? Too many laws may mean tyrandy. While the larger econ- emic and social problems may be left to those whose sphere it is to settle them, each individual has the obliga- tion which Christ Himself has defined, i. e. of rendering unto Caesar the things that. are Caesar’s, of doing his best to further and improve the civie conditions in which he may he placed. It is good to live in these stirring times, especially since war has left a veople Who can never be quite the same, after their four years of sac- rifice, brotherhood, true co-operation. And the practical lesson is that God demands the same acts of obedience, worship, now. as in earlier times, the rendering upto God the things which are God’s coming in the form of the prayer — -which is . the tiently that therc is too frequent urg- ing of the sacraments—that religion should be principally for women, who have more time for its obligations than do men. The preacher said that about as busy a man as could be found during the past year had been.
