Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother. and she was a widow: and much peo-. ple of the city was with her. And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. And he came and. touched the bler: and they. that bare bim stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arlsa. And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother. And there came a fear on all; and they glorified God, saying. That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people" (Luke 7:11-16).

The success of this Society has led many similar to be established, such as that of Ireland, India and Australia. There is in America one called the International Catholic Truth Society which works in har- mony with the other societies and republishes many of their publica- tiona. It distributed over twenty million papers and pamphlets dur- ing the first twenty-five years of Its existence. The Hong Kong Catholic Truth Society has made a quiet beginning but it has already pablished pamphlets and leaflets both in English and Chinese. It is the intention of the Society to provide in brief form publications giving the Information about Ca- tholic things that is most sought af the present time.
