We were pleased to entertain the following visitors last week: Rev. Godfrey Schlacter, C. PP. S., Ft. Wayne; George Zink, Miss Helen Thesing, Lorain, Ohio; Mrs. Emma" Fedorka, Whiting; T. J.- Warren, Miss Harriet L. Sullivan, T. C. Monahan and daughters, Chicago; Mrs. J 1 G. Reidelbach, Winamac; Mrs. N. Noe, Indianapolis; Mrs. W. W. Broun, Goshen. The C. L.

James J. Walsh, M. D. Ph. D., Dean of the factulty of medicine, Fordham University, after being introduced to his audience by Rev. I. Rapp, Monday night, spoke for an hour on the attitude of the Church toward Science, or as he more concretely put it, “The Catholic and Scientists.” He proved to be a delightful speaker, ahd held his audience in the acme of interest during his entire decture. “So much and so often,” he said, "have we heard people speak of the opposition of the Church towards science that on account of these repetitions we are apt to conclude that there must be some truth in the assertions, but it is founded on anything but truth.” In proof of this statement he enumerated many noted scientists of the modern age who, being Catholics, had lived good Catholic lives, some of them even having asserted that science rather increased their faith. “It is only the small mind,” he said, “that in the deep study of science loses its faith; the big mind lias no trouble whatever.”

science than any other government in the world, and that never have the achievements of Michael Angelo, Da Vinci, Kempis, Copernicus or Columbus been equalled. Yet these men and many others had received their education in the papal schools. He showed that the case of Galileo, the much mentioned case of the opposition. is very much exaggerated. Professor Walsh concluded his lecture by making a brief summary of his remarks, thus impressing it strongly upon his hearers that the Church has not only not ben opposed to science but has done much more for it than we can conceive.
