HOLY NAME SOCIETY
 HONORS E. E. DUPRAY
Former President Presented With Gold Chain-The Rev. Father
 Coyle and Others Speak

E. E. Dupray, former president Of the Holy Name society of St. Paul s church, was called to the rectory last night to discuss informally the best means to advance the order. He found present a goodly number of the mem bers.
 The chaplain, the Rev Father Coyle, after some desultory talk, rose and in a few well chosen words, voiced his regret and the regret of the society and especially the regret of the mem bers present who had been with MT, Dupray since his presidency com menced that he was going to leave Birmingham.
 Father Coyle said that while he had in his congregation members wealthier in worldly sense, members more
 blessed with the worlds goods, still
 he loked upon MT. Dupray as the fore most Catholic layman in his parish, for
 the presidency of the Holy Name so- ciety was the more honored and most honorable position layman can hold
 in any parish. He then in the name of the society presented Mir. Dupray with a gold watch fob, an enlarged official emblem of the order with the follow ing inscription: Gift of the Holy Name sOC1elN, St. 1dui b1TInlile idiil, to IL. F. Dupray, president, 1910 to 1914'
 members 1910, 21; members 1914, 21O. MT. Dupray was deeply affected in returning thanks. He said he would always have the fondest recollectons of the south, of Alabama, of Birming ham and of St Pauls He said that
 he appreciated the gift more than words could express, that the great growth of the grand society, that each month on the second Sunday makes
 such a magnificent profession of Catholic faith and fervor by its cor porate communion. was due not so much to his efforts as president, as to the whole souled cooperation and
 assistance of the rank and file. He wished the society a glorious future and an increasing usefulness in the years to be.
 The new president, MT. Enneking | and several other members present. MT 1 Hofer. MT Rothpletz, MT. Dillon and Mr Gallagher. made short talks wish | ing MT Dupray success in his new field
 of labor and assuring him of hearty welcome whenever he might return tt Birmingham
 MT. Dupray will leave tomorrow evening for Buffalo and Toronto, Can
 Later he will move to Detroit, wheri l he expects to make his home.
