Fall Campaign

Parish Parties 10 Precede Central Bazar Set for Oct. 30.

All Catholic parishes of the city have been asked to co-operate again this year in the annual fall drive to raise funds for Cathedral High ~ Bchool, the Most Rev. Joseph E. Ritter, bishop of the diocese, announced today. Bishop Ritter said the manner in which the funds are to be raised has been changed. Instead of each parish sponsoring a bazaar in the . high ero auditorium, there is to be one central bazaar which is to be supported by money raised by each parish from a social or some like affaif. Each parish is to be responsible’ for its quota, Bishop Ritter said. This year’s plans, calling for the series of parish socials, are to culminate in a bingo party to be held in the high school auditorium Oct. ‘30. Tickets for this entertainment . Bp being issued now, the bishop said.

Events are Discussed

Early plans for the bingo party and for the individual parish efforts to raise funds were discussed at a recent meeting attended by clergy and laymen. The Rt. Rev. Raymond R. Noll, Cathedral Parish rector, urged every layman in the city to support the rogram. “The need for funds is great because of the amdunt of interest on hue, high school indebtedness,” he sald.

Debt Now $336,000

The debt today stands at $336,000, which represents the amount of the deficit on parish. assessments which were made several years ago to cover the expense of the new $1,000,000 high school. Bazaars held last year and the year before have done much to alle viate the pressure of the indebtedness, Bishop Ritter said. In 1934, proceeds of the affair were put at $20,000 and the follow- * ing year a profit of $1500 was realized. It is hoped that the new system, each parish sponsoring separate function, will result in an increase of funds this year.

Kindergarten for Catholics Outlined

A Catholic kindergarten is to be opened at the St. Philip Neri School at the beginning of the regular » school.term this year, it was an- - nounced. today. The new kindergarten is to be directed by Miss Mary Burnell, Butler Universit; y, graduate, .who_ has had previous. kindergarten work experience at St Philip Neti School.

"(The following article on “What Has the Church fe Offer Young People Today”

-| was written for The Indianapolis Times

by Dean Kumnick). ~~ BY H. H. KUMNIOK ! Dean of Students; Valparaise University Youth needs the church. We are the generation which was born in the twentieth century and has come

to maturity since the World War, A number of writers have called us the lost generation. Perhaps, be< cause we all feel that we are a gene eration that has lost much. “You have robbed us of our faith and given us nothing in its place,” a student at one of our large unie versities said to his professors.

Young People Puzzled Young people of today are accused of being sophisticated. But they are more puzzled than sophisticated.

Puzzled by what? By this strange and confusing world-order which the older generation has built for them, Youth is bothered by the trends of a super-intellectualism which has led to cynical and hybrid thinking, by the machinations of science which insists on spending too much time on ways and means to kill off entire populations in the next war; by an economic order whose God is the machine and whose pet phrase . is share the wealth. In the distance can be heard the rumblings of Communism which seeks a perfect social order come posed of imperfect individuals, Youth has seen this house of life topple over our ears within the last few years and it is distrustful. It has been made to sit at material ism’s table and eat the husks of a false philosophy of life.

Youth Must Be Recaptured

The church must recapture the interest of our millions of young people today‘ who. frankly admit that they are puzzled and forlorn. It can not be done by claptrap or sacred vaudeville. Neither can we convert our young people by exe plaining religion in terms of ine tellectualism or social living. The church's textbook must be the Book of Life.

Jesus had some very impore tant things to say about such sube jects as salvation, everlasting life, faith, brotherhood, love, chastity, self-denial, family life. Young Augustine grasped their meaning centuries ago :- when he cried out: “In-Thine image hast Thon created - us, O God, and our immortal souls are not at peace une til they rest in Thee.” Those words ring true. to .life. . There is no happier life than the one which is built. upon a recognition of respon{Thy to his God and fellow-man, The gospel of Jesus Christ still remains. a, power unto salvation to

Our complex social order which is consuming it1f in the fires of its own confusion, is calling for men and women with definite convictions to help human beings to a more abundant life.
