sembled in pursuance of the resolution

Rhode Island held out to the last and

the action of the convention until May
90, 1890.
The necessity for amending the con-
sttuton was seen soon after it's adop-
ton. The first ten of the fifteen
amendments that have since been
adopted were proposed at the first
session of Congress. September %.
1889. They were ratified by the con-
stitutional number of states December

The constitution does not provide
that any maximum or minimum
length of time shall elapse between the
date Congress submits proposition

date ON which three-fourths of the
states ratify it in order that it may
become law. The thirteenth amend
ment was adopted in less than eleven
months from the date on which it was
proposed In the case of the eleventh
amendment the required number of
states did not ratify it until nearly
four years after it was submitted.

The subjects of the essays at local
public high school commencement all
concerned women and it was interest,"
ing to notice the number Of Catholic
women who were mentioned. The
Catholic Sisterhood received tribute;
the mother of st. Augustine was re-
sferred to as model of devotion to
the interests of her son, Joan of Arc
was mentioned, as were also the moth
5ers Of Dante, Raphael and Michael
Angelo. There seems to be a close
connection between Catholic mothers
and good mothers.

OUR SCHOOLS.

This week the Irish Standard is Civ
ing an extra large amount of space to
announcements of the closing exer-
cises of local Catholic educational in
situations. We do not make this state
ment in the way of an apology, for we
take pride in the excellent work that
is being done in our schools and col
leges and we feel certain that the
announcements will interest enough of
our readers to warrant the ACCESSIBILITY
of running them. While the programs
at the various Institutions were of par
ticular interest to the immediate
families and friends of those who par
ticipated they have q broader interest
for the people at large, inasmuch as
they indicate what our schools are
doing for the boys and girls who are
intrusted to their care and what they
can do for others who in the future
will be intrusted to them.
Today the Catholic Church is leading
the world in the work of education. In
her schools arts and sciences occupy
their rghtful place. She provides all
the necessities for culture But she
does not stop there, for she realizes
that the man who is cultured is not Il
desirable man until he has acquired
insure the proper use of the power
which is his as a result of his Gull
turc. TO her curriculum she adds the
most indispensable of all courses, Il
course in the fostering of Christian
virtue.
BY advancing religion to a place of
Catholic Church is solving the prob
lens with which other institutions are
battling in vain because they have
failed to locate the real seat of the
trouble. While those who place their
hope in science and science alone are
trying IT, discourage and eliminate
hygiene she says, No; a knowledge
OF evil is not necessary to make men
Virtuous. Men can be made virtuous
not through the repulsion of vice, but
by the attraction of virtue. Make per-
feet unity with the Saviour of man.
kind the end of mans endeavor and
the ills of society will disappear This
is what is being done in our Cath
Ole schools and for this work they
deserve the communication not only of
Catholics but of every citizen who
cherishes the highest ideals of ictizen-
ship. =
Taking foremost place in this
the example of their own lives and by
their work and prayers are training
boys and girls to grasp the principles
of true manhood and womanhood. In
their silent way, seeking no honor or
publicity, receiving no remuneration
for their services but the bare neces-
sites of life, they are doing good that
cannot be measured by things Of
earth. If the boy or girl who has
taken course of instruction under
them had no higher ideal than to live
so as not to disappoint the hopes
which they hold out for him, his life
ought not to be in vain. For their
hard, unselfish labor they deserve our
highest respect and heartiest thanks.

PARK LABORERS MADE GLAD
There Is To Be No Such Lay-Ott
This Year as Last.

There will he no big lay-of in the Park
Department laboring force this winter, ac-
cording 10 Park Commissioner Stover and
Louis T. La Roche the Commissioners
right hand man. What obviates an almost
regular occurrence in the department is the
appropriation Of $1,000 which has just been
granted by the Board Of Estimate and Ap-
portionment on the urgent appeal OF the
Park Commissioner that the park feclama-
tion work greatly depended on keeping up
his present force.
There was a big lay-off last year because
Commissioner Slower was Unable TO got the
money 10 keep the men. despite the fact
that there was important work to he done,
according 20 the Commissioners statement.
The men thus laid of took the matter up
with the Mayor and he in turn asked the
Park Commissioner TO do what he could
IN the matter. The present $1,000 apprO-
rriation means that many who would have
been laid off before Christmas viii have
Indefinite stretches Of work, and for this
there is much rejoicing among the laborers
of the force.
