thatthe Church's Hours of prayer are,next tothe holy Sacrifice and the Sacraments,thechief sanctifying power and source of spiri-tual inspiration in the Mystical Body.The Divine Office is being regarded as theradiation of the graces and blessings fromholy Mass,with the various Hours as thejewels in the crown surrounding the morningSacrifice.  \nSpontaneously the Breviary has becomethe companion of the Missal;together,Missal and Breviary offer a full plan ofChristian prayer and living.Especially for Sisters.  \n# A NEWSPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE\n\nIn this sacred experience af living thraugh each day and season as holyMother Church presents it in her official prayerbook,the Breviary,untaldnumbers of Catholics have came to realize the truth of St.Augustine's wards:\"How much did I weep during the hymns and verses,greatly moved at the  \nsweet singing of Thy Church.Their sound would penetrate my ears and theirtruth melt my heart,sentiments of piety would well up,tears would flow—andthat was good for me.\"(Canfessions,baak ix.)  \nYour inquiry for further information will be welcomed.Address:Father Director,Liturgical Press,Collegeville,Minnesota.  \n\n| GROW IN
