The building is absolutely fireproof and
no expense has been spared in making
it as sanitary and hygienic as modern
science can provide. In these respects
it is unsurpassed by any Catholic insti-
tuition in the United States. The spacious
grounds have been laid out so as to give
the pupils ample opportunities for
healthy outdoor exercises and amuse-
ment. Play halls make provision for in
clement weather.
No influence is exercised over the re-
ligious belief of non-Catholic pupils; but,
for the sake of order, all are obliged to
worship.
The curriculum is high and maintained
in affiliation with the Catholic University
of America at Washington, where pupils
are received as they are from other Cath
olic schools throughout the United States.
Pupils from years to 1S are received,
and the regular course comprises IL years.
One of the advantages of the convent
is the day school. and pupils coming in
this capacity are provided with dinner
wholesome, delicious food-whereas. under
other circumstances. school children are
relegated to cold lunches in the middle
of the day.
This feature especially appeals to par
ents. since they know how necessary 1t
is for their children to be provided with
nourishing food when they are working
hard over their studies during school
hours.

| Many years in a far Off Country, with
fathomless depths between us and her,
there was a gentle-heart ed, 'Christian
woman who consecrated I Ter life to, God
and the church.
With the Order of the Perpetual Adora-
tion, one of the most beautiful In the
Catholic religion, the Pew Mother Au-
gustine-for 1t was none. other than She
became united
Ihe order so graphically described by
Victor Hugo in his i'm mortal novel, Les
Miserables," with it's self-denial and alb
solute renunciation, il one of the strict
est and most consstrated Of any known
to mankind. and was founded near the
beginning of the eighteenth century in
Belmangny, Alsacc. by Father Faller, a
priest of French descent
The order in the ej.other country is clois-
tered. and partly so here, the sisters
being allowed only to mingle with the
world on business errands and in cases
of the direst emergency.
In the month OF October. 1924. the Pew
Mother Augustine, who is the superior
general Of the Order of the Perpetual
Alteration in America. was sent to this
country with a colony of four sisters to
establish the order, Louisiana being the
objective p point of her work
In Jefferson parish the reverend mother
and the sisters established themselves
and within a very short time the order
Increased sufficiently for them TO seek
larger Fields, which they did, going to
New Orleans, where the Mother House
was established and still exists.
From that time forth the Order OF the
Perpetual Alteration became a factor IN
the Catholic church in this country. for
so rapid was its increase that after n
short time branch houses from the
Mother House existed throughout Louis
lana, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama and
IN Washington. d. c.
The members of this order, in additsnn -
to the three VOWS common to all iher
orders, bind themselves to the vo-0s> os

SAYS WILSON'S
BILLS BEAT DECALOGUE
Corporation Lawyer Holds Plan to Curb Trust
in Jersey Is Contrary to English Rulings
and to the Laws of Nature.

Francis LyDde Stetson. the lawyer who
has taken prominent part in the organ
ization of many of the largest Industrial
corporations of the United States. in Civ
ing his views yesterday on the seven anti
trust bills which Governor Wilson has
proposed 10 the New Jersey Legislature
for enactment into laws. expressed his
opposition on the ground that they were
not only contrary TO his own views but
TO the laws now ruling in England.
Mr.. Stetson went still further into the
subject by quoting from an article re-
Gently prepared. which, in part. follows:
Antitrust laws have been enacted in
more than twO-thirds OF the states, when
perhaps are TO be swallowed up by ;he
Sherman antitrust law and leGis
supplementary thereto, passed OF pro-
posed for passage by Congress. The PEN
alties-civll and criminal-lmposed by
such laws often are more severe than
those directed against offences involving
attractions Of the Ten Command ments
or the laws OF nature.
Juries hesitate TO enforce such penal
ties personally against officers OF the
very same corporations whose practices
they are willing to condemn. Laws OF
somewhat similar import long ago pre-
vailed in England, but after centuries oil
Unsatisfactory operation were swept
away by the repeating acts of l''2 ana

the American people that they are neces-
