Don't Care for Catholic Reading
Some excuse themselves for not subscribing to their Catholic weekly (says the ' Providence Visitor ') because it does not measure up to their standard ' of merit ; others declare it is not ' newsy ' enough ; that they have no time to read it ; others that they do not need it. If the question were sifted out> however, it would be founid that -in all cases the reason why such Catholics flo not subscribe for a Catholic paper is that they do not care for Catholic reading. They have been weaned away irom a deep love of their faith fay G-odless education, -or by non-Catholic surrounaiwgs, or corrupted in their tastes by the sensational accounts of murders and scandals, which are served up to them day after day by the secular newsJpapers. .
It is understood that the Sisters of St. 'Joseph, North Sydney, have purchased for the sum of £3000 the magnificent residence of Mr. Hugh M'ATdle, Glafles-ville-roa-d, Hunter's Hill, for the purpose of a convent school for girls. It is a flne, commodious building, and stands upon three acres of land most charmingly situated.
