New Bishop

Jects the gospel of Christ. It den- ies Christian precepts and scams Christian ideals, It would. if ll. could, drive God out of his world. Christ out of his church, the im- mortal soul out of man. Even in our western world thousands no longer profess belief in God. Millions do not serve him. To many Christ is not God, the church is only a human organiza- tion heaven and hell are not real- ities. ISOLATES RELIGION

"so widespread era the effects of this materialism that, to a large extent, it has isolated modern liv- ing from religion. Religion lives and is practised only in spite of modern environment. Even among good people, there is created con- fusion of thought and paralysis of w

ill.

"This total and determined ma- terialism can only be met by a total and determined Christian- ty.”l - Guests at the consecration cere- mony and dinner that followed included I-Ion. Henry D. I-licks. premier of Nova sootia, 1-Ion. Col- in Chisholm and Mr. Justice J. Doull. Others at the head table were Bishop A. B. Leverman, Rev. . A. Marocco. Bishop George Landry. Bishop C. LeBlance, I-ion. L. D, Currie, Dr. H. J. Somers, Archbishop Psnico. Bishop J. R. MacDonald. Bishop Macllachern. Archbishop J. G. Berry, Bishop Michael O'R.cilly. Archbishop N. Robichaud, W. J. Macldillan, KB. 0.. Biship W, J. smith. Bishop K. R. Turner, Bishop .7. R. Gagnon. Monsignor P. J. Nicholson and Rev. Dougald Macllechern, brother of the new bishop.

A dinner for Bishop MacEach- ern was tendered by the clergy of the Antigonish diocese following the consecration.

Archbishop Penlco replied to the toast to the church. saying that Bishop Macllachern takes up res- idence in a. territory long since introduced to the Gospel of Christ by his name-sake, Bishop Angus Bernard MacEachsrn, and by a long line of distinguished bishops.

CONTINUES MISSION

"I-fe goes to continue s mission carried out so well in the past. that Christians and Christian endeavors of outstanding stature have flow- ered not only for the cdiflcation of Prince Edward Island. but for Canada and all the world." he said. "Not the least of its con- tributions to the church has been the island's gift of Cardinal Mc- Guigen to the west, to Ontario and to the Universal Church," Continued Archbishop Panico: "I am reluctant to conclude this discourse without s word about this diocese of Antigonish and the university in which we are gather- ed. Long before my arrival in Cariada I had heard of the faith and zeal of Antlgonlsh diocese. Wherever I have gone news reach- ed me oi the Antigcnish movement fostered by this small but great university. The Holy see itself has described your work of adult ed- ucation as s 'providentiei move- ment'.”

"You have shown i.l1e world that when the church helps men with his temporal problem she is but fulfilling her mission to save the whole men body and eoul. You have demonstrated that charity at its best means helping men to help themselves. helping them to be- come' master of their spiritual destiny through controlling their own temporal welfare. May your efforts in the field of adult edu- cation grow and flourish. Let your
