Holy Rosary Altar Society Holds First Meeting The members of the Altar so ciety of the Holy Rosary church received a rare intellectual treat last Wednesday evening at the first meeting of the new year. Mrs. Gene Krings, ' Mrs. Cliff Girardot and Mrs. Richard Van Ackeren presented a very in teresting and informative dis cussion following the general subject "The Parent-Educator." Miss Josephine Warga was mod erator of the discussion panel reading the prologue from the study club manual and present ing the speakers for each of the three topics assigned. Mrs. Gene Krings, president of the Altar society, stressed the fact that the consequences of marriage and home life are both temporal and eternal. "Life begins on earth to be continued in Heaven," the speaker said. Particular emphasis was given to the fact that the hierarchy of the church do not compose the church. All validly baptised people comprise the church and are members of Christ's mysti cal body. Even when one mem ber of the church is defective, the entire church suffers. "The child is not a mere crea ture of the state," Mrs. Cliff Girardot, the second speaker, asserted. "The parents hold from God the sacred right to train their children and in this free land they have the right to select for their children worthy institutions for their children's development. "Child ren are prize possessions and it is the duty of parents to usher them into Christian woman hood and manhood unsoiled by the vanities of the world." Mrs. Girardot especially condemned "secularis m" a system o f thought and life where only the material values receive any consideration. She also remark ed that supposedly Christian homes rate the material above the spiritual values in too many instances. The speaker remark ed about the "trinity" in edu cation the blending influence of the church, the home and the school. Education deals with the total personality of man: soul and body, the intellect and the will. Mrs. Girardot ended with an appeal to parents to make their homes attractive to the children and to unselfishly ex tended themselves in the in terest of the "children. Mrs. Richard Van Ackeren, the last speaker, began with a quotation from Father Daniel Lord, "Parents are the most in fluential professional people in the world." On this premise she argued that the home was the chief school for the children. "All the fundamentals of living are given at home. Habits are first formed by the child in imi tation of the parent." On good authority, the speaker claimed that habit development is well established in the child before it reaches the age of five. In conclusion, Mrs. Van Ackeren emphasised the fact that the duties of parents do not end when the child arrives at school age. At the conclusion of the meet ing a religious home project was displayed which would be help ful in teaching religion to small children. It was a tableau of the "Coming of the Magi." Mrs. Charles Janda will have next month's project "The Christ Child." The hostesses were Mrs. Dwayne Ahrens, chairman; Mrs. Frank Aschenbrenner and Mrs. Leo Brink. , Next month the discussion panel is composed by Mrs. Charles Janda, Mrs. Leo Hoh man and Mrs. John Flemming. Mrs. Edward Gradoville will be moderator.
