sed infusion of
Himself in the hearts of the faithful. This increased action of the
Holy Spirit will renew the whole face of the earth, in religion and
in society. Souls will be inspired by Him to assist in bringing about
this end.

"The question is _how_ shall such souls co-operate with Him in
preparation for this extraordinary outpouring of divine grace? The
law of all extensive and effectual work is that of association. The
inspiration and desire and strength to co-operate and associate in
facilitating this preparation for the Holy Spirit must come to each

follows: By a movement . . . springing from the synthesis of the most
exalted faith with all the good and true in the elements now placed
in antagonism to the Church, thus eliminating antagonisms and
vacating controversies. . . .'

"Can a certain number of souls be found who are actuated
by the instinct of the Holy Spirit, the genius of grace, to form
an associative effort in the special work of the present time?
If there be such a work, and an associative effort be necessary,
