THE CATHOLIC NEWSPAPER.

“My friends, it makes mo sad to think how blind Catholics, and indeed very intelligent Catholics, have been to the great need of properly supporting the Catholic press,” says Father Rosswinkel, the noted Jesuit: “Men of means in every community are ready to help almost any cause, but they are very slow to help the Catholic press. The work of the Catholic press is a 'great work. I verily believe that if St. Paul himself lived in our day lie would have presses running in every part of the world, turning out Catholic newspapers and Catholic literature of all kinds. The Catholic press is the antidote to the evil work of the anti-Catholio and anti-Christian press. Never ignore the Catholic press, never treat it lightly, never destroy Catholic literature, preserve it and pass it on, for it is like a good seed sown in the ground that will always bear fruit.”
