ffypnl-lqQJfN 1 u 1 fxtz frt February 20, 1955 My dear Mr. Caraher: Your letter which tells me that you have chosen for the theme of your 1955 DE PAULIAN the Encyclical Letter of Pope Pius Xl, of happy memory, on Christian Education, pleases me very much. This Great Letter is a Charter for Catholic Educators and an authoritative exposition of the Teaching of the Church on Education. It vindicates the right of the Church to conduct schools on all levels as included in the Divine Commission to the Church to witness and teach the Truths of Divine Revelation Clearly it defines the rights of the State in education and the rights of parents. It shows the fallacy of mere secularism in education in its emphasis on the fact that truth is one and you cannot divorce the truths of reason from the truths of Divine Revelation. It exalts genuine scholarship in which the study of the atom comprehends the vision of the Creator of the atom. In your study of this letter you will find how true education weds Science and Wisdom. De Paul is an admirable institution. It has faced many difficulties and exacted great sacrifices. All this has come because it knows that it is doing its part in obeying the Divine Command: HBe ye witnesses of men. With blessing, .1 Archbishop of Chicago. Mr. Jerry Caraher.
