WILL ORGANIZE
FORMER PUPILS Of
PAR0CH|AL SCHOOL
Father Callagfan, Of East Or
ange Church, Announces
Plan for Big Association.

At all the services yesterday the Rev.
John p. 'Csllaghan. rector of the
Church of Our Lady sIelp Of Christians,
East Orange, announced his intention
of forming an association Of all former
pupils of the parochial school from the
time the school was opened in the
parish until the present time.
The association will he similar in pur-
pose to an alumni society. but will in
clude every pupil who had at any time
attended this school. which can lay
claim to the graduation of many young
men and women who have BECOME
prominent in secular and religious call
lngs, many of them Important in the
affairs Of commercial and industrial
pursuits.
Fifteen years age, when Father
Callaghan assumed charge of the
parish. one of his first accomplish
ments was the institution of an
up-to-date p%arocniai school. From a
handful of a dozen scholars and a lay
teacher working in a small room the
school has grown into a handsome
brick structure. 100 feet square, four
stories high. with a membership of over
300 pupils in grades ranging from the
kindergarten to the academic courses,
under the personal supervision Of the
rector and a capable corps of in
structors furnished by the Sisters of
Charity.
The object of the associations life
will be mostly of a social character.
Father CallaEhan will be present in
person at all meetings to look after the
spiritual guidance of membersxin their
worldly battles by short discusses on
their duties to their religion, their en-
plcyers and themselves, giving them
h benefits and advantages of his
many years of ripe experience as to the
wants of young people in their re-
sponsibilities as good Christian laymen
and laywomen.
The first meeting for the purpose of
organization will be held in the parish
hall in North Clinton street wednesday
evening next, May I, at Sis D. m. All
former pupils attending this opening
meeting win be enrolled as charter
members. 1t is expected at least three
hundred will formally make UP the
initial organization.
