Show jV OFFICIAL ENDORSEMENT. V Editor liitermountain Catholic: ' My Dear Sir--Replj ing to your faver asking my ". Approval f The Iiuermountain Catholic since its es- ; tn blishni nt in this diocese. I will state that I consider I , the founding of a Catholic paper in Salt Lake not tha ; least of the many blessings bestowed by Providence ; on the Church here during the past two years. Its I birth occurred at an opportune time. Its zeal in prop- I rgating Catholic truth has had. since its inceiition, ' toy Ivarty though silent approval. I believe with Hir Holy Father that "a good Catholic journal is a j " T'crpc-tual nvssion in a parish." and that it will serve 1 :is a iUKtion box. at all times, for anxious inquirers. I In my isitations I shall hope to find The Intermoun- f. lain Catholic in the home of every Catholic family. J Its mission is to espouse truth, justice and morality, mid all devoted priests will find it an able co-opera- I tor in their missionary work. It is my wish that all I my priests and the laity entrusted to my charge i should encourage your noble effort and that of the j: un'vous founder of The Intermountain Catholic. ! Vours siii'-erely, L.
