pleted and is a handsome publication.
Last year was the first time an attempt
was made to compile a year book. and
the initial number was such success
that Bishop n c. Matz this year au-
thorized James Phelan Cuddy, an old
newspaper man and friend of the
charitable institutESls Of Denver, to re-
new the experiment. The book this
year is of pretty design and is beauti-
fully illustrated. Photographs of prom
inent Catholic men and women are used
and in every particular the statistics
| are most accurate. 1t is possible that
the book viii be ready for distribution
by Sunday, and it will be sent through
out the diocese. Mr.. Cuddy has had
wide experience in compiling statistics
for religious institutions, and the con-
| gregations Of the various churches are
awaiting with interest the appearance
Of the year book.
