Graceville, Minn.-Among the changes
to be made at the convent this year,
says the Phoenix, are the mother su-
perior and the music teacher, Mother
Cecilia, who has been here so many
years, and has endeared herself to all
the pupils, vii be greatly missed on ac-
count of her interchangeable efforts in
promoting the convent as home and a
school in this community. Her great.
warm heart and charitable nature WILL
no doubt, find full scope in charge of the
Boys Orphan Asylum in Minneapolis.
Her place here will be filled by Mother
st. Rose. Of Saltwater. This will be
the third mother superior during all
these IL years since the convent of Our
Lady was established here. Sister
Wilfrida. of st. Paul, will take charge
of the musical classes instead of Sister
Espheronce. The latter is not only a
finished musician, but is a lady of rare
culture. whose refined ideas cannot fail
to leave their impression upon those she
instructs. An hour spent with Sister
Espheronce is treat and not to be
forgotten.
