Two Weeks Mission Starts at In

servance of Anniver
sary.
Special Service on Reace Sunday
First Week of Mission for Women
and Children, Second Week for
Men. Mission in Charge
of Oblate Fathers.
Special Service on Reace Sunday

The anniversary of the parish of
the Incarnation was observed Sun
day by the opening service of a two
weeks mission to be conducted by
the Oblate Fathers. The church was
packed with women and children, for
whom the services of the first week
are especially designed. Next week
will be for the men of the parish.
Special peace Sunday services were
held before the opening of the mis-
sion. Father Cleary gave the peace
prayer, after which he introduced the
three Oblate Fathers here for the
mission and explained the purpose
of the services to be conducted by
them. Services will be held twice a
day at 8 a. m. and at p. m. Rev.
G.. L. Nolan, o. M. l., of the Holy
Angles Apostolic college of Buffalo,
was in charge of the services Sunday.
Rev. Father O'Donnell of Winnepeg
and Rev. Father Fallon of Buffalo
are the other missioner priests.
The parish of the Incarnation COM
prises the territory south of Lake
street and between Tenth avenue on
the east and Hennepin avenue and
Lake Harriet on the west. During
the early part of the summer of 1909,
several gentlemen representing the
Catholic people of this section wait
ed on Father Cleary, at that time pas
tor of the Church of st. Charles, and
requested his cooperation and aid
in the project of organizing new
parish to the south of Lake street.

ish was an imperative necessity. So,
at the request of the Archbishop, who
approved the architects plans, and
with the unanimous consene of the
mebers of the congregation, ex-
pressed at largely attended meet
ing, the contract for the splendid new
parsonage was let to Mr.. F. H. Raidt
early in the summer of 1912. In
the month of February, 1913, the
new parsonage became the residence
of the priests Of the parish. 1t was
thought well to provide for the fu-
ture needs of the parish, and to
erect a residence worthy of the grow
ing Importance of the parish, and am
pie for years to come. The parson-
age of the Incarnation is one of the
best and most commodious In the
diocese of st. Paul. 1t is intended
to furnish decent accommodation for
the pastor and two assistants. The
property of the Incarnation parish
at the present time represents an in
vestment of about one hundred and
ten thousand dollars. This includes
the spacious grounds. the Institute
of the Incarnation, the parsonage,
and the convent for the Sisters. The

Congressman George r. Smith
Favors Extending Our Trade Re-

Consulate in Minnea-

The extension of trade into the
South American nations is one of the
great opportunities offered the Unit
ed States at this time, according to
Congressman George r. Smith, who
returned from Washington Monday
The Congressman has been urging
Ambassador Naon of Argentine to
establish a consular agency in Min
neapolis.
I'VE should supply America first
and then extend our trade to neutral
countries" said Mr.. Smith. mo
better field is opening up than
South America. With the establish
ment of our federal financial system
the opportunity will be afforded our
national banks to have branches in
South American republics"
Congressman Smith has prepared
figures showing the precetage of
trade enjoyed by the United States
in South America. During the first
six months of 1912, Bolivia imported
$19,308,506 worth of products. OF
this amount the United States only
shipped in s1.791,000 worth of
goods.
Brazil imported Industrial machin-
cry worth $3,624,7S4 last year.
OF this amount the United States
sold only s26S,774 worth. Germany
sold $1,251,815 worth.
'The figures simply show that the
United States has not been getting
her full share of the trade in South
American republics" said Mr.. Smith.
''The trade is there and we can have
it by going after it. 1t will be slow
process. We must all realize that
the credit systems of the South
American republics must be strength
ened. But now is the time to get
strated. With the establishment of
branch banks business with those
countries will be facilitated greatly"
Minneapolis Chance Good.
II believe that Minneapolis can
have big part of this South Ameri-
can trade. Here we manufacture
flour, linseed oil, agricultural ma
chinery and implements, industrial
machinery, cotton and wool knit
goods, boots and shoes, electrical
equipment, traction engines, cereals
of all kinds, furniture and other
things. We ought to be supplying

The final week of practice for the
Oshkosh Normal game taking place
Saturday. October 10th, strated Mon
day afternoon. Most of the time was
spent in trying out new formations
for the game and but little scrim-
mage was INDUCED in. Tuesday af-
ternoon, Central High school of Min
neapolis were out in scrimmage
against the cadets. This was in the
nature of a light test of what the
midway team will be this year. On
Wednesday and Thursday afternoons
there were high school teams out for
practice games.
The men are all in good condition
with the exception of Hance, who
strained his back slightly in Satur-
days practice. The injury is not
serious and he will be able to play
against Sentral. He is playing
strong game at guard and will probo-
bly, start the Oshkosh game. There
was signal practice on Wednesday.
Thursday and Friday night of this
week.
The Oshkosh team will be about
as hard a proposition for the opener
that the cadets have had in recent
years. They ranked we'll up among

Peace Sunday Observed

Peace Sunday was observed
throughout the Catholic Churches of
the Twin Cities. as we'll as through
out all the Catholic Churches of the
country. last Sunday, in accordance
with the wishes of the Catholic HER
archy. Sunday, October 4th, was es-
pecialy designated by President Will
son as a day of prayer for peace.
Archbishop Ireland supplemented the
wishes of the President with a letter
directed to the clergy throughout the
archdiocese. asking that special
prayers be offered for peace. The
Knights of Columbus, of both Henne-
pin and Minneapolis councils, met,
in a body, at the Pro-Cathedral
school and marched to the Pro-Ca-
thedral where Solemn High Mass
was celebrated. the Knights of Co.
lumbus occupying reserved seats in
the front Of the Church.
The sermon on peace was deliv-
cred by Archbishop Ireland. In call
ing attention to tn" conflict in Eu-
rope, His Grace, the Archbishop, ex-
planned that war was not necessarily
an evil, since the outcome of many
great and important measures of
value to civilization depended for
their progress on war and the right
eous use of the sword. Comment was
made upon the grave circumstances
that should govern the deliberations
of nation before war is declared.
Referring to the desire for peace, the
Archbishop said:
1--WE should ask the Almighty that
peace should reign everywhere. Our
attention may be attracted particu-
larly to the conflict in Europe but we
should be more comprehensive in our
prayers for we need the assistance
of divine grace in a particular man
ner in our own neighbOring republic,
Mexico, where a ferocious civil war
has been waged for two or three
years and does not seem to be near
ing an end. War is an evil to be
deplored but it is not always un-
necessary or unjust, for men are but
men and men make up the nations.
