Proposes Two Celebrations in One

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
May New Englander suggest that
In moving the date Of Inauguration
along to the season Of more clement
weather. the selection of April 18th 10
particularly appropriate.
The anniversary Of the battle OF Lex
ington and Concord. the famous ride Of
Paul Revere. and the firing Of the first
shots In the long struggle that gave
birth to our elarious Republic. 1t seems
to me that the holiday now celebrated
In New England could welie be raised
to the dignity Of marking the Inaugural
tion Of our future Presidents.
Washington In April Is one Of the
most delightful cities in the country.

MOTHER CATHOLIC RULER
Grand Duchess Marie OF Luxembourg
Succeeds TO the Throne and will
Assume the Reins OF Government in
June.

The recent death of the Grand Duke
William of Luxemburg adds another
Catholic to the list of European rul-
ers who are members of the Catholic
Church. The successor of the Grand
Duke is his daughter, Princess Marie,
who will attain her majority on her
eighteenth birthday in June. Until
that time her mother, who was made
Regent four years ago, owing to the
mental and physical collapse of the
Grand Duke, will continue to direct the
affairs of the Grand Duchy.
The Grand Duchess Marie has been
brought up in the Catholic faith of
her mother, sister of Dom Miguel,
Duke of Braganza. y All but three
thousand of her subjects, which num-
Der a quarter of a million, belong to
the Catholic Church.
When the Grand Duchess comes of
age in June she will not only assume
the reins of government of Luxem-
burg, but also be mistress of for
tune amounting to fifty millions Of
dollars which renders her independ-
ent of her civil list of forty thousand
dollars year from the Grand Duchy
of Luxemburg.

The sermon was preached by the

phasized the significance of the Catho-

Home of the Blessed Sacrament, and
the center of Catholic worship as
exemplified in the Holy Sacrifice OF
the Mass.
After Mass he again addressed the
congregation complimenting them on
their generosity and self-sacrif1ce as
shown in the new Church which,

is on of the most perfect-a credit to
the Diocese and to religion. In

ment, the Archbishop dwelt- on the
struggles of its founders and com
mented upon, the growth and devel-
opment of the locality. It's material
prosperity has been due to the devel-
opment of it's agricultural resources.
He counselled the farmers of the par
ish to remain on their farms. do not
sell your rich lands" he said, "and
move to regions lying further north.
Any man who does that makes a
dreadful mistake. The farm is the
best place for man, woman and child.
Teach your children to love the farm
and farm life. This, in itself, is a
profitable work for the Catholic
Church to undertake and in undertake
ing it we shall help in the solution
of one of the problems of our age"
At noon banquet was served in

visiting clergymen and Pensioners.
At the evening services the Most
Reverend Archbishop preached an

A. O. II. AND LADIES AUXILIARY
RECEIVE HOLY COMMUNION IN
A BODY AT THE CATHEDRAL.
A Profession of Faith-Nearly Fifteen
Hundred in Line-Bishop LawIer
Officiates.

Never before in the history of the
Irish Societies of st. Paul was there
such a beftting celebration of the
Feast of st. Patrick as that in which
the Ancient Order of Hibernians and
the Ladies Auxiliary participated last
Sunday.
The members of these organiza.
tions, to the number of nearly fifteen
hundred, equally divided, assembled
at the Hibernian Halls and marched
in procession to the Cathedral which
was reserved exclusively for them at
the eight o'clock Mass. The members
of the Ancient Order led the process
sion and when they reached the Ca.
thedrai they opened their ranks and
allowed the members of the Ladies
Auxiliary to enter first. The entire
body of the Cathedral was taxed to
it's capacity and many found seats on
the galleries.
Mass was celebrated by the Right
Reverend Bishop Lawler who was
assisted in giving Holy Communion
by the priests of the Cathedral par
ish. A special choir of children furn
ished music during Mass.
In the course of his brief sermon
Bishop Lawler paid glowing tribute
to the children of Erin, dwelling prin
cipally upon their fidelity to the faith
of their forefathers. "You have chos
en-" he said," "the best way to honor
st. Patrick, the apostle who an
nounced the tidings of Christianity to
your ancestors; the benefactor whose
name awakens feelings of gratitude
in humanity's heart the world over;
the brightest star in the armament
of a nations sanctity.
cit is inspiring to see so many de
voted men and women on their knees
to receive the Savior Whose religion
their forerunners priced above every
other consideration in life, making
great sacrifices to preserve it and tc
hand it down to future generations
It is your most precious inheritance
AS loyalty to the faith of st. Patrick
has always characterized the land he
christianized, so let it be your distinc
tive trait in the temptations and dan
gers that assail YOU
After Mass the members did not
reform in line but disbanded at the
Cathedral and returned to their re
spective homes we'll pleased with the
outcome of their efforts to show theil
loyalty to the faith of their ances
tors. Many who belong to these so
cieties were unable to be present al
the Cathedral but received Holy Com
munion in their parish churches in
order to show their fidelity to the
special call made upon the Hibernians
throughout America to celebrate st
Patrick's day in this appropriate man
ner.

UNIQUE CELEBRAT|ON n
Temperance Parade of One Hundred
and Ninety Men the Feature of the
Day At Austin, MINI.

An unusual method of celebrating
the Feast of Ireland's patron Saint
has been in vogue for the past six
years in the parish of st. Augustine,
Austin, Minnesota Prior to 1907
there had been no general observance
of the day; but in that year Father
hevlin decided to have a temperance
demonstration Of the st. Augustine
Total Abstinence Society composed of
the men of the parish. Each year
since then this organization occupies
the place of honor at Mass during
which sermon on some phase of the
temperance question is preached.
After Mass the society parades
through the city with it's banners and
regalia and attends a dinner served
by the women of the parish to all who
wish to patroniZe it.
This year the usual celebration took
place on Saturday, March 16. The
Total Abstinence Society, comprising
one hundred and ninety men, marched
to the Church and attended Mass
which was celebrated by Monsignor
Devlin. The sermon was preached
by the Rev. P. J. Herman of Ovation
ma. At the end of Mass the members
Eof the Total Abstinence Society re-
newed their pledge not to use intoxi-
cants themselves and to do all that
lies in their power to further the
cause of total abstinence by word and
example.
The parade which followed the serv-
ices was witnessed by more than
two thousand people from the city
and surrounding districts. Each of
the one hundred and ninety men who
participated in the parade wore a
green badge in addition to the badge
of the Total Abstinence Society. The
parade ended at Columbus school Hall
where dinner was served by the wom-
en- of the parish.
Too much cannot be said in COM
mendation of the splendid work for
total abstinence done by Monsignor
Devlin since he took charge of St.
Augustine's Church. He has been
very active and successful in promot-
ing the cause among his people His
society is not only the largest exclu-
sively mems society in the state and
northwest, but in the whole country.
