Three members Of the faculty Of
Georgetown university will be absent
the coming year, and six other in
structors will take their places. The
most important change is that which

sic, N. Y, and puts in his place the
Rev. Adds Emmett, recently returned

The Society for the Propagation of
the Faith, the big foreign mission
agency Of world Catholics, reports
receipts for 1912 Of 81, e1o, 100000 sum
larger by $155,4oo than in 1911, and
the largest in the history Of the 80
ciety. OF this $S5.2oo increase was
sent by Catholics of the United
States, or more than half. AZ
American Catholics contribute far
larger sum than any other, France
alone excepted. and this probably be.

other societies receive and expend the
same year, hence their miscalculations
of receipts and consequent frequent
debts.
