Life of Father Hecker

INTRODUCTION
19/26

His efforts for the diffusion of Catholic literature, THE CATHOLIC WORLD, his several books, the Catholic tracts, tell his zeal and energy.

A Catholic daily paper was a favorite design to which he gave no small measure of time and labor.
He anticipated by many years the battlings of our temperance apostles.

The Paulist pulpit opened death-dealing batteries upon the saloon when the saloon-keeper was the hero in state and church.

The Catholic University of America found in him one of its warmest advocates.

His zeal was as broad as St.Paul's, and whoever did good was his friend and received his support.
