THE YOUNG CENT? ElIEN OF ST. Alloy
SLUS' SOCIETY At TRINITY HALL

Among other wise regulations and good
works done by Rev. Father Leonard Thevis,
charged with the pastoral direction of the
Church of the Holy Trinity in the Third
District, has been the organization of his large
and very respectable congregation into group
of societies atfording admission and serviceable
employment to each and every parishioner of
whatever age or sex. There are few, if any,
of his flock who have not availed themselves of
this opportunity and privilege. The order and
unity of action thus secured are found to be
very valuable as helps to the prosecution of
any works undertaken by the clergy. Rev.
Father WiukelOkowski is parochial coadiutor,
His cooperative zeal aad great energy are
universally acknowledged.
In 1872 Father Thevis gathered together q
number of young gentlemen of the parish and
formed them into a society for purposes of
amusement, of self-edifeation and general in
struction. Literature, the drama, music.
benevolence and gymnastic exercises are
features of the character assumed,
The Society now numbers forty in the roll of
active membership. They meet the first Sun.
day of each month in the Holy Trinity School
Hail. corner of st. Ferdinand and Royal streets.
The officers for the current term are: Presi-
dent, A. strobel; Vice President, G. spOrl, Jr. :
