Scope and Contents

De Pauw congratulates McMaster on publishing the Church Calendar. He suggests he publish the calendar week by week lest someone should lose the issue with the entire calendar in and be lost. Also he suggests that holy days and special days including fast days should all be marked clearer and that Roman Ordo could be replaced by one word, "Rome". This calendar will boost Mass attendance. He has been trying to find subsribers but many people are not interested in educating themselves to Catholic the and he has been busy. He feels that the church is not progressing as it should and that bishops should learn the meaning of the part of the crozier as well as the upper part. He wrote to Miss Ella Edes suggesting this but she has not written recently. De Pauw is anxious to hear from her concerning the results of Msgr Cesar Roncetti's visit. Roncetti has been fooled but one can do nothing to convince him of it and can only be thankful he played no part in the deception. He wishes McMaster a Happy New Year and inquires if he ever sent the copy of the Life of St. John to Miss Edes. :: I-2-b A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
