ship Bishop John Stanley,
who was unable to be present
An eloquent sermon was
preached in German by Rev T,
l.. Rabsteinek of Dickinson.
The subject of his discourse
was "Faith" and. his words
deeply impressed themselves
upon the mipds of the audi.
ence.
At 8 p m. the hour appointed
for the laying of the corner
stone, the members of the
Catholic Order of Foresters
marched from the Crave Hall,
led by Chief Ranger, r. E.

subscribed to the fund, and
last but by no means least, a
copy of Mayor Helms speech
After the laying of the corner
stone a collection was taken ND
and the appeal of Mayor Helm
to the citizens to contribute
generously had evidently fallen
upon good soil, for a most
liberal contribution was the
result
Before introducing Rev. Fr
FIR O'Driscoll who was to
preach the sermon of the day,
Rev Father Studnica addressed
the assemblage. and expressed
the gratitude of the parshisners
and himself to our Protestant
friends who have 80 generously
contributed to the building
fund AS the worthy pastor
said in his remarks, words fail
to express the deep gratitude
of the members of the parish
to those friends who have as.
sisted so generously and cheer
fully
Rev O'Driscoll, in the course
of his sermon reviewed BRIEFLY
the progress OF Catholicty in
North Dakota within the the
past twenty years, giving a
stirring picture of the con
ditions that confronted the
priests of the church in the
early days
The energy of the Catholics
of Hankinson in undertaking
the erection of such an inpos-
ing structure was spoken of in
the most complimentary man.
ner
The speaker also pointed out
that the building of this church
was placing Hankinson promi-
nently before the state, and ex.
pressed the belief that when
completed st Philips would
hardly be surpassed by any
church in the state
The new St Philips when
completed will replace the

church built in 1873! when the
parish was organized
Prior to that time mass had
been said in various places, but
in that year the church was
built at cost of $500
At the time it seemed as if
that building would be large
enough to accom- 5odate all the
paris ioncrs for all time, but
for some years it has been
found altogether too small. a
fact which in itself is suffi.
cient proof of the great growth
of the parish
The new St Philips will be
a lasting monument to the in-
defatigable energy of the Rev
Fr Studnicka and when the
magnificent building is finally
completed he may we'll survey
with pride the results of his la
bors
When Father Studnicka as
sumed the charge of the par
ish it was struggling along un-
der the weight of a debt of a.
bout $4,000 Gradually this was
cleared up and the parish left
unincumbered to proceed with
the erection of new church
The material that is being u.s.
ed in the building is the best
that could be procured, and
thanks to the efforts of the pas
tor, it has been secured at the
lowest figures.
The contractor is bending
all his energy towards making
the building masterpiece, and
his skill as a builder, 80 that it
is certain that Hankinson will
have a building to be proud of
and one that will compare very
favorably with any in the state.
