 world at large.

 spirit of charity in its most catholic aspect, and evolve a 

 more living and true interest generally in the strides of 

 civilisation, and the concurrent emancipation of the human 

 race from the domination of every material as well as 

 spiritual influence nocuous to its present welfare and 

 future destiny.
