A Church’s Personality—.

St. John's ‘Brightened Up’ For Centennial Next Year

The oldest Catholic church in

the city is to be the scene of the

mass of the first annual convention of the Indianapolis Diocesan

‘Council of the National Council of

Catholic Women next month.

+ The mass will be celebrated by the Most Rev. Joseph E. Ritter, bishop

of ‘the Diocese of Indianapolis in St.

John’s Church Dec. 4, at 8:30 a. m.

Convention business sessions will follow in the Claypool Hotel.

St. John’s congregation also is looking forward to the church’s centennial in 1940 which is to be observed with special services -and events. Preparation has begun “at the top,” the Rev. Fr. Clement Bosler said today. Father Bosler pointed out the scaffolding from which workmen are covering the 185-foot twin spires with copper to match the surmounting crosses. The .copper replaces slate which has been

on the spires since their erection in

-- 1880.

In addition to the church’s age, the pastor called noteworthy its total Sunday attendance of 2000, which

‘was made possible by the downtown location, the services attracting many

bansierits and. visitors from -otfier

Father Bosler also shoke of the ~ service from noon until 3 p. m. an Friday as an outstanding of the year. He said that John’s is the only church in and one of a very few in that carries out the

Capitol Ave. The same bell which sounded the Angelus then, rings daily now at noon and at 6 a. m. and p. m. Although an up-to-date organ is now in use, the one purchased when St. John’s was new is still preserved in the church. The stations of the Cross are old oil paintings from France and the marble altar was made in Italy. The first church in the parish, built in 1840 on the corner of Washington and California Sts., was not called St. John’s but Holy Cross. It was outgrown and ceased to be used for worship in about 10 years. Afterward the immediate predecessor of the present church was built at Capitol and Georgia Sts. and named St. John in henor of the patron saint of its pastor at the time.

Served as Cathedral

When the seat of the diocese was moved from Vincennes to Indianapolis, St. John’s was for a time the Cathedral church. In addition to routine pastoral duties, Father Bosler trains and directs the choir, conducts a query class for Catholics and non-Catholics, super-

women and with his two assistants teaches religion in the St. John Academy and the parish grade school. The Rev. Fr. Thomas Scecina, an assistant, is in charge of the Catholic Info: tion Bureau and Readon the St. John premises.

Richard Grogan, works with the young people, who present about two plays each year and publish a little paper, The Clarion. Among the former St. John pastors often of today are the Rt. Rev. Msgr.

It is profoundly necessary that nations should not judge one another where all are in some measure guilty, If there had not been so much of the spirit of Hitlerism in other lands, including our own, it would not be necessary to be fighting Hitlerism today. Even the fact that nations are at war ought to make us the more tolerant #&nd careful in our judgments. Our chief concern ought to be to make sure that the beam is out of our eyes before we are too zealous in casting out the mote from our brother’s eyes. ” E ” ‘ THE WORLD is involved in war today, to some extent at least, because the spirit of magnanimity did

“AS ye

try ‘we have had fine examples of this spirit of magnanimity coming out of days of strife. We associate this particularly with Abraham Lincoln, who showed a rare understanding of his enemies, even when he felt it his duty to oppose them, and who refused to allow malice to enter his soul. We may be sure that

God sees the sins and sufferings of|

His children with eyes of love and with great sorrow for their perverseness. The old question, of course, is emphasized in time of war, even more than in time of peace. Is it possible to obey the Golden Rule and make it a practical precept of daily life? This question has been asked repeatedly in connection with business, where competition often tends to be ruthless and where the individual is often the victim of forces and conditions which he has no power to determine. ‘There is little value in out too finely the issues and questions that are Yaised, but the simple] fact is that. f us could live a great deal closer to the Golden Rule than we’are now doing, even allowing for handicaps and obstacles. Moreover, if there were more disposition on the part of men and women—even on the part of those who call themselves Christians—to

PROTEST DATE

Christian Education Council, Other Groups in Plea For Change.

The Indiana Council of Christian Education today joined other church organizations in protesting against holding the state high school

basketball tournament findls here during Holy Week. A written request that the date be changed from March 23 was sent to Arthur L. Trester, basketball commissioner, by Edward R. Bartlett, council president, at the request of the executive committee. He said that the significance of Holy Week “would. be seriously affected by the hysteria generated in the closing days of He tournament season.” “Co-operation Between the agencies of religion and the agencies of government is a basic principle of democracy,” the protest said. “The proposed action of the Indianapolis High School’ Athletic Association would, in the minds of many, be a direct violation of this principle. “It would affirm that ours is a pagan society concerned only with secular ‘values, indifferent to the interests of Christian citizens.”
