1 St John of the Cross has some telling words on the deserved success of good pagans who because they followed virtue were granted ‘longer life, greater honour, dominion and peace’. But this, he says, is not the way of the Christian who has the light of faith and can see beyond the merely temporal. (Cf. Ascent of Mount Carmel, III, 27, 3–4).

2 The implications of all this in relation to the education of the human person are brought out very well by Professor M. V. C. Jeffreys at the first National Adult School Lecture. Catholics will read it with great profit if they read into it the full Catholic teaching about grace and redemption. (National Adult School Union; 6d.)

3 The College is to be opened at Swynnerton Park in Staffordshire if the sum of £10,000 can be raised: for this sum the Governors are now appealing.
