will operate a taxidermy shop
and Mrs. Sattler will continue
with her leather work.
Catholic Information
Who likes to go to Confession?
Who really likes to kneel before
a priest and accuse himself of sins,
naming the grievous ones, giving
the number of times they were
committed — promising restitution
if need be, expressing true sorrow,
resolving, with the help of God’s
grace, never to sin again? Is there
anyone who really likes to do
that?
Imagine the most powerful ruler
of any nation obliging his subjects
to confess like that to him or to
his delegates! There would be a
revolution, wouldn’t there? Yet the
Catholic Church has ever had just
such a law for its millions of peo
ple in every clime and in every
age. Not a single one is exempt.
For this there is only one reason
—a Godly reason. To the Catholic,
confession to a priest was com
manded by Christ, who is God,
when He said to His first priests:
“Whose sins you shall forgive, they
are forgiven them; and whose sins
you shall retain they are retained”
(John 20:23). These divine words,
every Catholic believes, were
meant for all priests of all time
and imposed an obligation on all
Catholics of all time.
Confessing directly to God?
Every Catholic worthy of the name
does just that every time he re
alizes that he has committed a
grievous sin. At office or mill, on
the street or in the home—as soon
as this realization comes to him—
he begs God’s forgiveness at once;
but he goes to the confessional
also where he confesses again di
rectly to God before a priest—who
must hear the sins if he is to for
give them in God’s name,—if he
is to judge, advise, and encourage
the penitent.
Who likes to go to Confession:
Perhaps the Pope and saintly car
dinals, bishops, priests, nuns, and
the more devout laity—all of whom
must also confess to a priest—like
to go to Confession to express sor
row for their sins of the past and
to creep even closer to God's heart
through the great graces of the
great Sacrament of Penance. But
he whose sins are the blackest—he
who most dreads the humility of
Confession—if he is truly penitent,
receives just as truly the merciful
forgiveness of God and comes forth
from the confessional sinless, forti
fied, and with a happiness beyond
anything in this world; for as St.
Luke tells us: “There shall be joy
in heaven upon one sinner that
doth penance, more than upon the
ninety-nine just who need not pen
ance” (Luke 15:7).
If it's anything Catholic, ask a
Catholic!

ist industry which is contributing so much to expanding
Alaskan economy.
The Alaska Steamship Company is proud of its new
ticket office and cordially invites you to drop in for a
visit the next time you are Outside.
The genial man presiding over the ticket counter in
the picture above is Ken Cross, Alaska Steamship Com
pany’s assistant general passenger agent, who has charge
of reservations and ticketing for the company. During
his 25 years as a member of The Alaska Line staff, Mr.
Cross has been a frequent visitor to the North Country
and counts thousands of Alaskans among his personal
friends,
