BE FAITHFUL TO MOTTO
Was Rev. w. ]. 0'Sulhvan's Final Word
to St. Michael's Graduates,

! Burlington June 90 The graduating
exercises of st. Alichael's college were
held yesterday afternoon before a large
gathering of priests and friends and rela-
tiyes oil the graduates. This. the ninth
commencement of the college. is particu-
larry. worthy OF notice as this is the
first one since the institution was grant
cd its charter as a college by the legisla
ture of the state of Vermont on Jan. 2s,
1918. and Yesterdays three college grad
uates are the first to whom st. Mich
ael's college has granted the degree Of
bachelor OF arts. They are: Messrs. j.
Doyle, A. Charbonneau and P Nolin.
The various ESSAYS, the recitation,
singing and music were greatly appre
ciated BY all present The speaker for
the occasion was Rev. w. j. 0'Sullivan
of Montpelier. who very eloquently ad-
dressed the graduates. Taking as his
theme "The Mission of a Catholic Stu
dent in the Society of To-day" he spoke
of the great need society has of men of
faith and OF Christian principles, and OF
the courage and determination necessary
to carry them ont. In this respect the
speaker especially referred to the actual
state of restiveness. TO the false doe
tripes and principles which are being
promulgated and are menace and dan
ger to the homes. institutions and liber
ties of our country. There is call from
church and state for recruits to enter
the ranks and do battle for God, for re-
ligion for humanity. The soiourn of
the graduates in St Michaers college
has been time of preparation for their
I,J 20
forth with determination and definite
purpose to fulfil the duties that await
them and thus realize the object of their
dreams. prayers and education.
Before closing his address, Father
DSulivan made a few practical sugges-
tions. First. the Young men who are
now leaving st. Michael's college should,
as soon as convenient. become members
Df Catholic organizations. where they
will meet with kindred and friends and
be protected against the pitfalls and
hangers of all sorts. Being men of edu-
alton it is natural that IN time they
assume the leadership of such societies |
or the betterment and uplift of their |
ellowmen as citizens and as church /
members.
Secondly, they should be faithful to
he practices of Christian life and con
uct which they acquired during their
ife as students, because if these things /
we're necessary during the time Of prep
ration they must be much more so in
he thick and strife of battle Thirdly. /
hey must be men Of prayer. since our
,edeemer has admonished MS that with
ut Him we can do nothing.
Finally, the speaker appealed to the
raduates TO be faithful 10 the motto
.hich they have chosen: In hoe signo
inces. -In this sign shalt thou con 1
uerr and be loyal to their allegiance.
D the banner 81 the cross. walking and
ghting the good cause beneath TIE pro-
.ction Of its arms The victory Of the
ross will then be assured.

SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT.
Provisions

Butter-Local quotations remain the
same with the demand good and the
market strong. Indications are that
there will be no change for some time.
The market on the best grades of
creamery butter was firm, but as the
bulk of receipts was of the poorer
grade business was inclined to drag.
At New York receipts were heavy and
the market in general quiet.
Characterization on all grades OF
cheese have taken slight decline and
are holding steady at the present
level; sales this week have been slow,
This is probably due to after-holiday
effects.
Eggs-Both local fresh eggs and
eastern storage have dropped from sc
cents to $1.00 per case, due to the
exceptionally good supply of local
ranch eggs. This is a remarkable sit
uation, and is the first time in the his
tory of the business, local dealers say
that home produced fresh eggs in mid
winter have produced material eff
feet upon the market. At Chicago the
market was firm and good volume
of business being done. At New York
trade was active and quotations firm
Poultry-Prices remain unchanged
with little lull in the market Incl
dent to after-holiday conditions. Il
will be few days before the trade
settles back into it's normal channels
Fresh Meats-The only change IL
the market is in the quotation on COW
beef, which has advanced " cent
Other prices remain firm with the de
mand good. There are prospects o
an advance in both beef and mutton
Pork is steady and will probably re

tity of hogs are being dressed ant

Lard and Cured Meats-rhe loca
lard situation shows no change from

at this time of the year is uncertain
