POPE PIUS XI We pray for His erm', Our father, am! Rome. Aw, Aw, Ave, Maria! Ave, Ave, Maria! 00 HEN the mother of Achille Ratti consecrated her babe t0 Almighty God, W could she have had any foreshadowing of the whole-hearted consecration that son would make of himself to the Divine Master? Step by step he advanced steadily in the way of Christ, becoming Chrisfs Vicar as the two hundred sixty-lirst successor of St. Peter. Pope Pius XI chose as his motto to restore all things to Christ? This was not a new motive, for had he not already spent over half a century following this ideal? Ordained at the age of twenty-two, Father Ratti, after receiving successive ecclesiastical degrees, became in turn Teacher of dogmatic theology and sacred eloquence, Doctor and prefect 0f the Ambrosian Library in Milan, Monsignor, Prefect of the Vatican Library, Papal Delegate to Poland, Archbishop, Cardinal. Following the death of Pope Benedict XV, Cardinal Ratti was elected pope, February 6, 1922. The pontiiicate of Pius XI is marked by outstanding historical events. He may well be known as the Pope of Peace, Pope of Social Justice, Pope of the Missions. As Pope of Peace he gave his first pontifical benediction from the outer balcony of St. Petefs and thus inaugurated the settlement of the long-standing disagreement with the Italian government and the establishment of Vatican City. As Pope of Social Justice he would bring the individual, the family, society under the reign of Christ. No wonder he instituted that glorious feast, feast of Christ the King. As Pope of the Missions the Holy Father urges Religious orders to establish foreign missions Whenever their numbers justify it. Mother Clarissals compliance with the request brings a thrill to Our Lady of Angels. Our own Sisters, the Sisters of St. Francis of Oldenburg, have taken a mission in China, and in September a band of six Sisters will leave for the Far East. Twenty-three world-famous encyclicals broadcast the Pontiffls principles. Most outstanding are: Christ the King, Christian Education, Christian Marriage, Christian Unity, Retreats, Prayer and Expiation, Reconstruction of the Social Order. Every Our Lady of Angers girl must feel a thrill of gratitude knowing that she is privileged to attend a school such as Pope Pius speaks of in uChristian Education, a school Catholic in its every detail. For his combat against the evils of Communism, for his vigorous support of the lay apostolate in Catholic Action, for his clarion voice promulgating the principles of justice our Holy Father Pope Pius XI must easily be acclaimed the Great, the Good.
