an unqualified success.
How well the idea works here in Wash

to any of the school Fairgrounds during
the busy season. One will see boys and
girls weaving baskets that, if bought 1t

written for The Catholic Bulletin.)
Another year has swiftly slipped away
Into the soundless silence of the past;
In Times long corridors another day
Has found its niche among the rest at
last.
For all the years are but as days to
Him
Who holds us in the hollow Of His
hand;
And mighty epochs, eras, ages dim,
In His far-reaching sight are grains
of sand.
AS some fair nun, in nightly orison,
Tells Ger her beads, so centuries slip
away;
And as she fingers, murmuring, on
one,
We pause, to herald in the glad new
day.
The towering hopes, the fears, the
love, the hate,
The things we grieved DER with slow
falling tears,
Are all as dust,--but wondrous deeds
await
To be accomplished in the coming
years.
May this new era see no more Of
greed,
Nor lust for gain, nor pride, nor CORY
war,
But mans Fraternal State be ours in
deed,
And Universal Peace reign evermore.

ORDINATION OF CONVERTS
Six Converts from AngIicanism Made
Deacons.

An interesting event in Rome was
the recent ordination to the Deacon
ship of five clergymen who left the
Anglican Church some two years ago
in body and resolved to study for
the priesthood. The names of these
are Rev. Mr. Cocks, Rev. Mr. Hinde,
Rev. Mr.. Hendley, Rev. Mr.. Prince,
Rev. Mr. Shebbeare, all of whom are
studying in the College of Noble Ec-
clesiastics. To the list must be add
ed that of Rev. Mr.. Steele, of Ulster,
who served as chaplain for twenty
three years to the leader of the
Orange party in that bigoted part of
Ireland. The first five of these are
graduates OF Cambridge University,
and all of them willingly sacrificed
great worldly interests on entering
the true fold. Probably within twelve
months they will be ordained priests,
in which event it is their purpose to
return to England to labor for the re-
turn of that country to its old alleg-
lance.
