<. OF G. ACTIVITIES
LOCAL KNIGHTS TO EXTEND
SCOPE OF WORK.

According to prominent members OF the
Knights of Columbus in the District OF Co
lumbia the announcement by Edward +.
Harrington president of the building COM
pany of the order, that the temple on -
street is now out of debt has proved
marked stimulus to the membership a'
large. 1t is proposed now to seek greater
fields of activity, both within and without
the organization. This Is thought to be
naural consequence. since the order mas
overcome it's own difficulties. Prof. J. Z.
Monaghan is declared to have struck the
keynote, when, at the meeting OF the COM
bined councils held last Sunday. he said;
knights of Columbus, we have PAID on
the debt for this building, but a bigger debt
is behind 1.-THE debt of gratitude to God
and our neighbors. This can never be PAID:
Instead of this being the end. 1t Is the reai
beginning Henceforth we have work TO
do infinitely bigger than the debt paying
like that of today.
1t is anticipated that one of the activities
of the order In the future Will be In the
furtherance of the we'll being of three local
orphanages There are between 1,4OO ana
/ 800 members of the knights OF columbus
in Washington, and a proposition is peing
discussed whereby an annuity or sooo VIII W!

Becomes Permanent Feature.
So much satisfaction has been expressed
over the meeting of the combined councils
of the knights of Columbus last Sunday
afternoon as guests of the building COM
pany that such gatherings, it is stated, VIII
be permanent feature of the organiza-
TONS assemblies. 1t is proposed to have
quarterly meetings of the members, when
as was the case last Sunday, the grand
knights of the various councils will make
addresses, and the program be of the CHAR
acter of smoker AS one member express
ed it: such meetings result in cohesive
activity in the order They permit of more
sociablity, inducing a broader field or &C
craftsmanship among the membership at
large
Announcement has been made that there
will be an eXemplification of the fourth
degree of the knights of Columbus at Rich
mond, Va, February % next washington 8
birthday, when, it is thought, large dele
CATION from this city will participate.
The announcement in The Star that the
Ancient Order of Hibernians Throughout
at the Catholic University of America has
created a great deal of interest here. WASH
ington members of the society have been
foremost in the past in assisting this lnstl-
tuition, and the recent action of the national
board of directors in taking the first move
ment forward has been generally ap-
plauded.
