Excerpt from Selections From the Writings of Adelaide A. Procter: With Notes and Questions Catholic educators have the responsibility. Their best weapon is literature. Though Catholic authors are not given the highest places in literary honors, they should not be denied worthy consideration. They give soulful expres sion to the true and the beautiful, and by these the mind is captivated and the heart won. Other purpose than this, literature has none. To render this agency for ennobling thought more effectual by familiarizing young minds with pure and beautiful im agery, these studies have been prepared; and a brief and simple form has been adopted that the wants of our Catholic preparatory schools may be supplied. Drawn from Catholic sources, the selections are pregnant with those supernatural motives that faith inspires, - motives discovering the joy in righteousness and unselfish aims, and realizing the Christian's Obligation and destiny, as learned from the first page of the Catechism Man was created to reverence adore, love, and serve God in this world and thus be happy with Him forever in the next. If their message be thus understood, the poet's art will have its recompense, the compiler's work its bountiful reward.
