govern them. Since the founding of
st. AIMS Orphanage 13 years ago
over 1,0U0 children have shared in
your good works. Most of these have
entered the battle of life. have be-
come good citizens, and worthy mem

that the evening of your long, holy
and jealous life may calm and serene
and give a foretaste of that infinite
happiness Ior which you have already

years. May God bless and protect
you, our Bishop and preserve you for
many years to come, are our fevent
wishes today.
The best feature of the programme
was the public examination of the
pupils from the wee minims to the
dignified juniors. Some of the prob
lens in mathematics solved by the
young students would keep some old
er people hard at work for some time.
There was evidence that strict at
tention to business was the watch
word of pupils and teachers.
1t is well known fact that the in
struction given under the supervision
of Rt. Rev. Bishop Scanlan and Fa-
ther Kiely is of the most practical
kind, the education that will be of
value to the young people in the fu-
ture. The tests in stenography and
type writing were conducted by
Frank McGurrin and the work done
by the little folks was truly aston
ishing. But the young people of st.
AIMS are not backward in the finer
arts as can be seen from the follow
