Another feature will be a public hour of adoration of the Ulessed Sac rament at each of the city's 36 churches, to be presided over by a bishop, archbishop or other high ranking clergyman. 'purpose of the demonstration la to install! deeper reverence and un derstanding of Christ, the Eucharistic king, into the hearts and minds of our people," said Uishop Hummel "In this materialistic age, we feel that buch public demonstrations are highly desirable."
