Editor's Notice

Instruction of young people in Christian Doctrine is divided into two Classes or Sections: to the first corresponds the Short Catechism, intended principally for children who have not yet made their First Communion; to the second, the Greater Catechism for young people already instructed in what is taught in the Short Catechism. This is preceded by a few pages of first notions of Catechism for children of tender age who, at home or in nursery schools, are beginning to learn the first rudiments of the Faith.

The Greater Catechism is followed by an Instruction on the principal feasts of the Church and a very brief compendium of the History of Religion, so that nothing may be lacking to young people of what is suited to their religious instruction.
