When a loved one passes on
Gently the doctor replaced the
wrist of Hie woman on the white
b edspread. Sympathetically, he
turned to the kneeling man and
said: ‘‘Your wife, Mr. Jones—your
wife has left us!”
Dead? Impossible! Tiie one per
son who really meant anything to
him—gone forever! Nothing more
could he do for her, and before
him stretched wretched, lonely
years.
What a comfort for the Catholic,
at such a time, to know that he
still can aid—that by his prayers
to the compassionate Lord Jesus,
he can wipe out her tiny sins and
the temporal punishment due to
all her forgiven sins—and that she.
by her prayers for him, may help
him toward his heavenly goal.
Such is the dogma of purgatory,
and it’s all so logical. Surely noth
ing defiled can enter into the pur
ity of heaven; and by the same
token, nothing but the grossest
life, unrepented, deserves the ever
lasting punishment of hell fire.
Therefore, it seems to us that there
must be a midway place of pun
ishment and of cleansing, where
most of us enter to stay until we
are fit to reside with Jesus in
Heaven.
This the Apostles preached and
practiced. This the early Fathers
taught and wrote. This the Bible,
it seems to us, in many places
presupposes. Of this the catacombs
give living testimony today.

Carrying Christinas to Kotzebue
.Claying Santa in the summer is one of
our most satisfying tasks.
This job is to transport the things that
will mean a Merry Christmas next December
to the people of the Bering Sea and Arctic
areas.
Of course that is only a small part of the
program. The ships we send North during
the summer carry all the basic supplies these
people require duripg the long winter ahead.
This includes not only the necessities of
life, but also the equipment and material
essential to the operation of their industries.
This- is a big responsibility. We take it
seriously because we know our friends in
the North depend on us.
At the same time, we’re sentimental
enough to get a kick out of knowing that
we’re making possible a Happy Christmas
for the families of Kotzebue and other sec
tions of the far North.
