In his annual report President Hannah in
part says:
During the last institute year a course Of
lectures was given which seemed to meet the
approval OF the members. They attracted to
our hall good audiences appreciative OF the
efforts made by the lecture committee to pro-
vide for the intellectual entertainment OF a
large membership.
Among the deaths of the year, none came
to the Catholic population of Washington with
such shock, and TO Carroll Institute in par
tlcular, as that OF Father Walter From the
inception of the institute to the time of his
death the late pastor of ST. Patricks Church
was devoted friend of the institute, and in
every possible way assisted to bring 1t to its
present success.
During the year now closed. it is gratify-
ing to note the fact tnat the institute is under
! obligation to members and friends who have
favored US as in former times with the COM
plimentary bestowal of their talents for our
| benefit.
I'VE have received numerous donations TO
the library during the year, and this fact has
necessitated the increase of shelving. Among
| the generous donors are his emInence James
| Cardinal Gibbons, Mr.. E. Francis Riggs Prof.
Joseph C. Foertsch. Mr.. John Byrne, Mr.. Her
man j. Sehulteis. Mr.. John ]. Lalor, Mr.. Ed
ward Mast, and Mr.. Daniel Shanahan
| The success of the gymnasium feature
| OF the institute is a matter in which we take a
| pardonable pride. Under Prof. Maurice
| Joyces efficient supervision it has been
! largely patronized bv the members. who find
its excellent equipments for every form Of
athletic exercise a welcome relief after the
| day spent in business cares.
Owing to the financial stringencies of the
| times and failure Of a number of our men,
bers to pay their dues, we were compelled to
make extra efforts to meet our obligations. A
| special committee OF five members was ap-
! pointed to devise ways and means. They
made an appeal through the Church News
| for donations and life members. / am happy
TO inform you so far the responses have been
| liberal for these times. We have increased
our life membership roll by five.
The other toasts of the evening were: "Our
| risen dead, responded to by Mrs. Cora L. V.
Richmond: "The spiritualistic press" Mrs. r.
