The service at the Sheltering Arms Sunday afternoon was in charge of Rev. F. o. Cunningham. His subject was The Teachings of Christ.

 The choir of the First Baptist church, Mrs. L. A. Wheeler, Mrs. Her bert Wiley, T. E. Linton and $. H. Peckham, gave choice selections.

Our sincerest gratitude is hereby
rendered to each parish and mission
In the diocese, which exhibited so re-
markable kindness and promptness
in meeting the cathedral assessment
levied for the cathedral fund; and to
each noble-hearted and charitable con-
tributor, who assisted i'm promoting,
thus far, the noble work for God and
country. Their deep interest and i'm
mediate generosity have been both an
example and encouragement to us all.
The heartful, loyal and cooperative
pastors, responsive Pensioners and
other praiseworthy benefactors merit
the lasting thanks Of the entire do
cese.
Funds are still needed for the cree
ton Of the Cathedral, the mother
church Of the diocese, and future
monument to northern Minnesota.
Welldisposed souls are always to be
found, who gladly donate to so wor-
thy cause, knowing the reward that
God will grant their charity. Our
heart rejoices at the knowledge Of
the material. but mainly the spiritual
progress that has been accomplished
throughout the diocese since its erec-
ton by His Holiness, Plus the Tenth,
some twenty-one months ago. Parishes
have been established, missions and
stations organized, religious societies
formed and the attendance in the par
ochial schools much enlarged.
A notable and most consoling in
crease is there, especially, in the num-
Der Of the faithful assisting at the
Most Adorable Sacrifice OF the Mass,
receiving the Holy Sacraments and
hearing the word of God. Ardent zeal,
on the part of the reverend clergy,
and fervent activity on the part OF the
laity, appear evident throughout the
diocese.
must, indeed, congratulate the
members OF the Pro-Cathedral parish
on the intense interest they take In
the material and spiritual advance
ment of the church, and particularly
the women, who never tire in furth.

and strenuous work
