Admiral Stewart said in part: "Our
thoughts are of our country. and proud
thoughts they are, when we think of the
place she holds in the world. The cere-
monies of Memorial Day are still in our

graves are most impressive and suggestive.
The WEAKNESS and the gloom, the hard
ships and suffering. the heart-breaking
sadness Of the days of the civil war, can
never be forgotten. II was great price
th.,t the people paid for peace. But all.
whather from the North or from the
South, were actuated, as We believe. by
motives Of duty. and what seemed then to
be patriotism. All the bitterness of the
strife has been forgotten and wiped out
by intervening years. All who took Fart
in that war took part in the glorious re-
suit. the settlement Of past differences
and the cementing Of the union OF the Ia
tion under one country, united and power
full, one flag glory-covered and world

been more widespread than today. 1t Is

guidance Of Rabbi Stern, they conducted
almost the whole service, and conducted
1t with such smoothness and spirit as
made it full of intelligent interest to the
hearers.
The ceremony, after the regular services
OF the day. opened by the removal of the
sacred books of the Torah from their crypt
in the altar. Two of the boys, Eugene
Young and Milton Goldsmith, taking the
great velvet wrappings from the rolls, read
in Hebrew the Ten Commandments. There
was prayer by Maud Baer. and then came
the catechising on the truths of Judaism.
The questions were interspersed by short
addresses by the confirmants. on THE
Basic Truth of Religion The Unity of
God, Acceptable Worship" After Con-
firmation, and Why We Are Jews"
Then in harmony with the spirit of devo-
ton to parents which is SO strong an eIe-

ed in the auditorium Returning again to
the pulpit. they took places in front of the
crypt. and the velvet curtains being drawn
back, revealed the Sacred Books resting
against gorgeous crimson silk lighted
from an unseen source above. Placing his
hands in turn on their heads, the rabbi
conjured them to be true Israelites, and
all else would be added unto them. And
then, in tie presence of the Sacred Books,
and before the congregation of the Lord. |
the children made their devotions and
were accepted into the church.

AT THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY
Graduation Sunday Observed With
the Usual Ceremony


Graduation Sunday was observed yegter-
day a: the Catholic University with great
ceremony. Solemn high mass was celebrate ed
at $3.50 o'clock. the celebrant being Right
Rev. Monsignor Conaty. Rector: Rev. p J.
Healy, of New York, Deacon and Rev.
NJ. ]. McSor!ey. of Philadelphia Sub
Deacon. The master Of ceremonies was
Rev. T. p o'Keefe of Santa Fe. At the
end of the mass there was Benediction O.
the Blessed Sacrament, after which the
tie Deum''>was sung in thanksgiving for
all the blessings of the year. The music
of the mass was of a high order, the choir
being under the direction of Rev. E.
Placidus Feurst. o. s. Il. The sermon on
the occasion was preached by Rev. Will
liam j. Kerby Phi. D.. of Sioux City. Iowa.
The subject was. The Academic Spirit
Father Kerby said in part
''All social groups are characterized BY
a grouping spirit, which is produced by
the factors which give life and direction
TO the group. Since universities are social
groups. they should possess a character
istic spirit.
They exist for truth knowledge; how
ever, we may differ about the exact func-
tion of higher schools. they exist alone for
truth. Hence tie basic element in the
university spirit. or. as it may be called.
the academic spirit, should be love of
truth accompanied by Intellectual honesty
Thereby universities are protected against
sham and pretence. and individual MEM
bers are Strengthened in their high and
noble work. a second element in the
academic spirit is reverence for truth.
Their cause is holy; hence the tricks of
chr not mn hn fnrp h1
the university. Universities are protected
against fraud and the degradation of
scholarly standards and methods only
when their spirit is marked by reverence
for the cause which they represent. A
third element is the sense of responsibility
to truth for the opportunities enjoyed in
university organization; since that should
appear in both teacher and student. Hence
the academic spirit is essentially intoller-
ant of idleness. laZiress, inertia. A fourth
element Ia the sense Of limitations: schol-
ars recognize limitations, are never ex-
elusive. nor narrow nor intollerant. An
other element is loyalty to the university,
loyalty TO its ideals and purposes, and TO
itself as an institution. Secondary ele-
ments IN the academic spirit are found in
methods of work; in thoroughness, accu-
racy patience"
The speaker traced the relation of this
spirit to the spiritual life Of the scholar.
and showed the important services which
may be rendered by the genuine academic
spirit to the work of personal sanctifica-
ton. Concluding, the speaker called at
tention to the unique character of this
university as Catholic. and showed that
solid. consistent Catholicity must be an
element in the spirit fostered.
The comforting of degrees by Cardinal |
Gibbons. the Chancellor of the university, |
will take place in the assembly room, Nc |
Mahon Hall. on Thursday next. at 10 |
o'clock Q. N.

New York's Moving sts,rways.

The Manhattan Railway is about to
put in those moving stairways at two
of the L. stations in New York. Two
different styles of stairway are to be
tried. One of them is continuous band
of hardwood Stats, covered with rubber,
which moves over pair of drums and
carries the passengers up without ex-
ertion on their part, and the other is a
regulation stairway which moves in the
same way. so that the passenger plants
himself on the bottom step and is car
ried to the top. The latter arrangement
gives him a fiat surface for his foothold
while the other has ridges to prevent
his slipping from the inclined plane up
on which he stands.

SHALL WAR BE DECLAREDp

The hostile presence Of our troops in
China without the right conveyed by
formal declaration of war, is justified
on the same grounds that excused the
presence of American marines at Alex

permitted them, in case the lives OF
Americans had been put in jeopardy in
Honolulu in 1893, In Seoul in 1894. and
in Rio de Janeiro In 1895, to enforce
their national policy.

the other to follow us, the streets being
so crooked and narrow that one guide
could not keep all of us in sight at one
time, as it was necessary for our safety
that he should. Before starting out the
