Such Was the Banquet Reunion of Do
La Sale Alumni Association.

The second annual banquet and re-
union Of the De La Sale Alumni AS
ISOLATION, given at Donaldson's tea
rooms Thursday evening, December S,
was a notable one in the history of
the Christian Brothers school, and
was made more so by the attendance

rick, of Duluth; Reverend Fathers T.
E. Cullen, James OReilly, P. j. O'Con-
nor, D. ]. Moran and Edward Lee of

Fathers James O'Reilly, T. E. Cullen,

Donaldson tea rooms We're handsome
ly decorated in purple and gold for the
occasion, and the banqueters sat down
to an elaborate menu. An interesting
program of toasts and musical num-
bers was interspersed among the chief
addresses.
The opportunities that exist in
America for individual effort and ur-
gent encouragement to seize these
opportunities, was the keynote of the
address given by the archbishop
Coupled with this was the thought
that Christian brotherhood and Chris
tian education were helpful aids, and
the speaker urged the cementing of the
bond of brotherhood furnished by the
banquets Of the alumni. A contrast
was drawn by the archbishop between
the opportunities afforded in this coun-
try and those possible in older Euro
pean countries. IF I were speaking
to young men in those countries" he
said, Il would urge them to be salts
fled with their lots and make the best
of them. But in this country, oppor-
tunity beckons at every hand. And"
he added, when you see your oppor-
tunity, go after it, The making of
money was not discouraged by the
speaker. mo amount of money" he
said, will ever compensate for one de-
feet of character but money honorably
gained, is an honorable attainment"
The archbishop said he had no pa
thence with the man who was satisfied
with a moderate ambition. He urged
the highest aims, and said the secret
Of success was latent in all and that its
attainment rested with the man him
SELF Education and a love Of books was
urged and the Importance of an edu
Gated Christian laity to the church to
which his hearers belonged, was
strongly urged by the distinguished
prelate. He congratulated the Chris
tian Brothers school upon the success
it had attained and spoke Of the keen
interest he had always taken in the
institution.

BIG NAVAL DISPLAY.
Secretary Metcalf Gives Out State
ment, Saying Manoeuvre is not
Political

Secretary Of the Navy Victor H.
Metcalf, in an interview, confirmed
the report that large part Of the
united States navy will be seen in Pa
cific waters next winter. Eighteen or
20 of the largest battleships will come
round Cape Horn on. practice cruise
and will be seen in San Francisco
harbor.
"Many false impressions have
gained circulation about the move
ment," said Secretary Metcalf. ~
have held all along that there was
practically no significance to this
movement from a military standpoint.
I might have stated before leaving
Washington exactly what l am saying
now. But I thought that as the news
concerned the people Of the Pacific
coast, today would be an appropriate
time to announce the plans.
"It is the policy of the navy de-
partment to keep the fleet in Ameri-
can waters as much as possible. It is
also our policy to keep as large a
number Of battleships together Jas
possible. We might as we'll spend the
money in American ports as abroad.
In the past we have sent squadrons
to various European nations with less
advantage than by keeping them at
home.
E'I have planned this cruise around
Cape Horn for the practice Of the
squadron. How long the ships will re-
main here I can not say. I can prom
ise the people Of Oakland and San
Francisco that they will see one of the
finest naval spectaele> ever witnessed
in Pacific waters.
"I hope the talk Of japanese trou-
bles and Of international differences
may be dropped by the newspapers.
There is nothing to produce any feel
ing except this talk of the newspa-
pers. The story that Ambassador Aokl
is in disfavor with his own govern
ment, I believe, is purely an inven-
ton. l know of no reason why Japan
and the United States should not be
on the friendliest Of terms" "

Of Wilkesboro, saying THAT he had
searched his Bible but could find no
authority for woman's preaching. He
saw no place where she had been COM
manded to preach.
"R. Don Laws took up the battle
for the divine healerS and made re-
ply to the minister through The Pat
riot. He contended that Mr.. Perdue
was wrong and cited quotations from
the Bible to prove it. He argued,
that, if a woman could not preach the
churches should quit sending them as
missionaries to foreign fields.
"The controversy aroused the peo-
pie to white heat. Everybody was
expectant.
"The following Sunday after Don
Laws piece came out, Rev. Mr.. Per-
due got up in his pulpit, with a Pa
triot in his hand, and gave Laws a
thorough going over. He took the
editors contribution as a text and de-
livered a spirited lecture. In closing
he declared that if any one would
show him in the Bible where woman
was commanded to preach he would
throw his Word Of God in the ocean.

afternoon the healers had meeting

that he did not know what he was

after each attack the camps have been

know that will happen at Wilkesboro
before the month is over. From
Wilkesboro the Etters go back into
the mountains where they will preach
during August.
"About the last and only thing l
ever heard Of Mr.. Etter doing was to

JAS. HENRY RICE.
There is Some Doubt as to His Age.
Made Himself Famous in News
paper Work.

Greenville. News.
Mr.. James Henry Rice, Jr., who for
the past half century or more, has
been such a familiar figure in the
newspaper life Of South Carolina, and
and who il now devoting the unabated
energies of his declining years to the
worthy couse of the Audubon society,
was assaulted in Greenville yesterday
by his thirty-ninth birthday. There
are some wnc think that it must have
been his thirty-first and others who
gausins their estimates by contem-
poranecus historical events withln
the memory of the oldest inhabitants,
set it down as the sixty-second. The
records having been destroyed by
CORVALLIS the archives are Of no avail
and Mr.. James Henry Rice will have
to pass for being just as old as he
feels and looks which is young, dis
tressingly young. Hence the following
effusion:
James Henry Rice, James Henry
Rice, since we were first aequent,
The years have swiftly come and gone
and I am old and bent.
Ny scanty locks are silvery o'er, my
step is not apace
With stride that Time saw tit to set
when we began the race.
For me the staff, the hating gait, a
quiet chimney seat
With phantoms Of the past at play
around my tired feet.
But as for you, James Henry Rice,
your form and face betray
No wreck Of time. nor crash OF
years to give your age away.
The line athwart your portly midst
is comfortably taut,
Your eve is clear, your head erect,
the battles you have fought
Have left YOU skimpy on the pate,
but steady on your feet.
And you would scorn with fine con-
tempt the peaceful chimney seat.
You say that you are only thirty-nine
I reckon sixty-tWo,
But have it as you will my James,
for after all tits true
That as we feel so are we aged, yet
I would ask, forsooth,
Where lies the well from which you
drink the waters Of your youth?

AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.
Covered with Yellow Sores-Grew
Worse-Parents Discouraged-Cu-

"Our little girl, one year and a
half old, was taken with eczema or
that was what the doctor called it.
We called In the family doctor, and
he gave some tablets and said she
would be all right in a few days.
The eczema grew worse and we
called in doctor No. 2. He said she
was teething, as soon as the teeth
were through she would be all right
But she still grew worse. Doctor
No. 3 said 1t was eczema. BY this
time she was nothing but yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, SO we let him try it about
. week. One morning we discovered
q little yellow pimple on one OF
her eyes. OF course we 'phoned for
doctor No. 3. He came over and
looked her over, and said that he
could not do anything more for
her, that we had better take her
to some eye specialist, since it was
an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to
doctor No. 4, ana he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could
help it. We thought we would try
doctor No. s. Well, that proved the
same, only he charged $40 more than
doctor No. 4. We were nearly dis
couraged. saw one Of the Cuti-
cura advertisements in the paper and
thought We would try the Cuticura
Treatment, so I went and purchased
q set of Cuticura Remedies, which
cost me 81, and in three days our
daughter, who had been sick about
eight months. showed great improve
ment, and in one week all sores had
disappeared. OF course 1t could not
restore the eyesight, but IL we had
used Cuticura In tins am confident
that 1t would have saved the eye. We
think there is no remedy so good for

BALM OF SCRIPTURE
HEALING PROPERTIES OF PINE
KNOWN TO ANciENTs.
Oil Of the White Pine Tree Used Suo.
cessfuIIy by Physicians In Treat
Ing Consumptive Patients.

The Oil of the Pine Tree Is sup
posed to be the balm Of Scripture. 1t
contains great medicinal properties
and was regarded with the utmost
esteem by the ancients, and to the
present day is peculiarly priced by
the people Of the East.
A noted authority on diseases OF the
throat and lungs, who established q
camp for consumptives In the Pine
Woods of Maine, says that his entire
treatment consisted Of fresh air,
nourishing food and the Pure Virgin
Oil Of the White Pine Trees, mixed
with Whisky and Glycerine in the fol-
lowing proportions:
Virgin Oil Of Pine (Pure) ZOE.
Glycerine ..................2
Good Whisky ...............
Used in teaspoonful doses every four
hours.
1t is claimed the above mixture will
heal and strengthen the lungs, break
up a cold in twenty-four hours, and
cure any cough that is durable.
The ingredients can be secured
Aiou any Soou plcoCiiplioh VI uS5ioS
at small cost, and can be easily mixed
in your own home.
Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure) is put up
only in half-ounce Walls for dispensing.
Each vial is securely sealed in
round wooden case with engraved
wrapper with the name-Virgin Oil

many rank limitations of Virgin Oil
Of Pine (Pure), which are put out
under various names, such as Con-
centrated Oil of Pine, Pine Bal

substitute for the Pure Virgin Oil Of
Pine, as they will invariably produce
nausea and never effect the desired
result.
