sweet memories of the past.
Rev. Father Rousseau, M. A.,
had as his subject THE Jesuit
Alumni in Social Life" and DR..
Denegre Martin spoke on The
Jesuit Alumni in Professional
Life"
The last of the speakers was
Mr.. Anthony Muller who pic
tured the future of the college.
Among those who were not
slated for a speech and who,
when called upon, responded
with a magnificent ex tempore
talk, was Hon. John Oge, of
Grand Coteau. Being known
all over the state as a very witty
talker, Mr.. Oge kept the alumni
in a state of uproar the whole
time he occupied the floor. He
brought cheers after cheers from
the alumni and he undoubtedly
made a reputation, on this oc-
casion, as an after dinner talker,
to be envied by many.
Among the prominent people
of this state who honored st.
Charles with their presence were:
State Auditor Paul Capede-
vielle and son, Register of State
Land Office, Fred Grace, Com
missioner of Agriculture
o. E. Bruner, State Su-
perintendent Of Education T. II.
Harris, Secretary of State Alvin
Hebert, Railroad Commissioner

The diamond jubilee w a S
brought to successful and happy
end when the st. Charles Alumni
assembled in the old college hall,
which was deliberately decorated
in the college %colors, crimson and
green, by the hands of the good
ladies of Grand Coteau where the
old students of st. Charles and
invited guests enjoyed an ex-
quisite banquet.
Registrar of Land Office, Fred
Grace, of Baton Rouge. vino was
at one time a student at the ven
cradle old college, acted as toast
master. In a very few appro-
pirate words he told the good
fathers and Alumni of St. Charles
College, how happy he was on
this occasion, to be able to at
tend a banquet at his Alma
Mater and it was his hope that
the same crowd, with many more
could gather at the same place in
1914. He then introduced Col.
John P. Sullivan as the speaker.
The colonel had as his subject
'.Deo ct Patriae" Our God and
Our Country" The Colonel
enumerated the old sights, which
was his JOY to revisit after being
away from st. Charles nearly
twenty years. He spoke most
feelingly about his college days
at st. Charles and his class
mates. He spoke of the eff
cheney Of the Jesuit professors
and what they have accomplish
ed for our nation. His roaring
voice was most pleasant to all
who were present and the Colo
mel undoubtedly took the laurels
of the day as an after dinner
speaker,
Hon. Gilbert St. Julien, of La
fayette, spoke in French about
the sturdy Creoles of Louisiana,
and what the Jesuits have done
for them, whilst Father Marings

there may be others a year or
SO older. The contest is an open
one and Studebaker is giving
much time and attention to sift-

In any event, Studebaker can

wagons that have demonstrated
their sterling worth and their
ability to stand up under any

other buildings were set on fire

Alumni Day.
The last day Of the now famous
st. Charles College diamond
Jubilee was alumni Day" when
over $50 alumni of the renowned
institution gathered about the
beautiful college grounds, in the
college hall and everywhere.
At about three O'Clock Sunday
evening those desiring to become
members Of the St. Charles
College Alumni Association as
sembled in the college auditorium
for the purpose Of going into
permanent organization.
There were several heated
battles Of words about certain
changes in the constitution Of the
association the principal of which
was when Col. John Fl. Sullivan,
ex-Exalted Ruler of the Elks,
offered a resolution to elect off
GERS by secret ballot. Judge
William Campbell opposed the
Colonel in his view, stating that
he had been in polictic all his life
and this was not a polictical or
ganization, but a purely social
body, and consequently members
of the organization would not be
afraid to stand up and say who
was their preference for the va
rious officers. The Colonel, how
ever, won his point and his mo-
ton being seconded by Judge
Campbell, himself, it was there
fore resolved that officers would
be elected by secret ballot, though
the vive voce manner would be
accepted in cases of minor i'm
portance.
Another change in the consti-
tuition of the association was of
fered by DR.. Martin Of New Or
leans, who held that students
of Jesuit Colleges dismissed from
school on account of insubordi-
nation who had made good af-
ter leaving college were eligible
to membership. This resolution
was passed unanimously.
When it came to the election of
officers, the first of which was
the President, the name Of Joseph
A. Grace, popular Clerk of Court
of Iberville Parish, was placed
before the members, and with
one acclaim the entire alumni
association shouted for him to
take his place as the first presi-
dent of the st. Charles College
Alumni Association. The follow
ing officers were elected by ac-
elimination:
Father NJ. A. Grace, honorary
president; Joseph A. Grace, presi-
dent; Father Francis x. Twell-
meyer, first vice president; J. J.
Barry, of Grand Coteau, second
vice president, Judge William
Campbell, Of Lafayette, third
vice president; DR.. Denegre Mar
tin, of New Orleans, fourth vice
president; Gilbert st. Julien, of
Lafayette, Secretary; DR.. C. A.
Gardiner, of Sunset, Treasurer.
After III meeting was adjourn
ed the members Of the association
marched in a body to the beauti-
full church Of Grand Coteau,
where the Benediction of the
Holy Sacrement was offered by
Rev. Father Grace. The cere-
monies were most edifying, the
holy priest robbed in the rich
vestments of the church was as

con and some fifteen altar boys,
