economy of the students, and thus parents and
guardians may feel confident that they shall

their annual bills. A suitable and fixed system
of discipline will also be Immediately intro
duced, in order that many sources of complaint,
both to professors and students, may be
tirely removed, and that order, contentment,
and rapid progress in studies may be the sure
results
The Christian Brothers, knowing fully the
designs of their Venerable Founder, are always
soiicitous and unceasing in their endeavors to
direct in tue paths of strict Justice the thoughts
and actions of the pupils confided to their care.
To attain this end, the strictest vigilance will
always be maintained, and special attention
devoted to the moral instruction of their wards.
From the new order of things now existing
in Pass Christian College, it is sincerely to be
hoped that patrons and friends will lind no
cause to regret the encouragement and support
they have until now given to the institution.
