INDIVIDUAL GOOD WiLL BASIS OF LASTING PEACE; The message of the angels, Peace on' earth—to men of good will, although a Christmas text, was made pertinent and timely in its application to pres- ent day conditions by Rev. - at the high mass in St. Patrick’ Sunday. Christ came to bring that peace, of] which so much is being said in these days ,to men of individual good will. What is true of individuals is true of nations. There can be no lasting peace unless there is an absence of selfish- ness, of the spirit of pride which im- plies inequality, and of avarice. Last- ing peace must have as its basis indi- vidual good will. In any country the first essential to peace is obedience to law—divine and| civilL. By contrast is anarchy, which{ makes claim to have no laws, vet has one, that might is right. Results were, described under such conditions, which| are Pan-Germanism applied to indi- lvidual rights. In the matter of obedience to law. the! Catholic church does not generalize, but is most specific. The church does| not tickle the intelligence, yet do noth-: ing for the soul. On th econtrary, it always comes down to bedrock, and in; this instance it gives men as the exact! laws of obedience the Ten Command- ments of God, and the laws of the; church; these, with a spirit of fair-| mindedness, and good intention. | On the point of fair-mindedness, at- |tention was directed to the fact that,| while individuals may be narrow, the| Catholic church is always democratic, | broad, holding that those of good will, though outside the pale, still are mem- | bers of the soul of the church. Very! beautifully the thought was developed| that throuh obedience to law, divine and human, love and. peace, coming from God, will he reflected in the indi- vidual life and from it spread to the lives and souls of other At the offertory John Doyle of the regular choir sang the baritone solo, Bailey's melodious setting of the Ave Maria, in a very pleasing manner.
