or
it, . . . these are some of the means through which the Society pursues
its policy. To every wind, we may say, it sows the good seed of truth.

To fully understand the principles and forward with energy and
perseverance the policy of the Catholic Truth Society, demands an
enthusiastic love of the Church and an abiding confidence in the
conquering power of Truth and in its ultimate triumph. Only a zealous
and aggressive Catholic can grasp this vision and walk in its light. But
the example of the enemy's activities alone should be sufficient to give
us that zeal and aggressiveness. The Dominion is flooded with the
literature of the Methodist Social Service, of the Bible Society, of the
Christian Science, of the Rationalistic Press Association. Their
activities should act on our apathetic Catholics as the gust of wind that
scatters the ashes and fans the smouldering embers to a flame.

Generous are the hopes founded on the future of the Catholic Truth
Society of Canada. With its far-flung line, from coast to coast, great
are the services it can render to the Church. But there is no field with
greater possibilities for this apostolate of the "printed word" than our
Western Provinces. There the pastors are yet few and the flock very
scattered. The little pamphlet, the Catholic paper will keep the watch
around the lonely settler's faith until the living contact with the
Church's authority and sacraments be renewed. And in the great battle
against religious indifference and profound materialism which are rapidly
spreading over our West, the Catholic Truth Society will make us realize
the saving power of Christianity. . . . "_And you shall see Truth and
Truth shall make you free_."

But Mr. Britten carried out the idea.--It was to be essentially a
lay-movement.

Australian Catholic Truth Society the report stated that during the year
1919 152,309 pamphlets had been put into circulation, while the total
number published since the foundation of the Society was 1,837,947. The
executive had decided to publish in future 36 penny pamphlets each year,
instead of 24, and trusted that their enterprise would be rewarded with a
substantial increase in the number of subscribers.
