ST. PETER'SISA
I LEADING COLLEGE
Jesuit System of Unity in
Studies in Force in Jer-
! sey City School.

In the education OF Catholic youths
ct. Peters College, Jersey City, is
recognized as one of the leading in
situations OF learning in the State.

cultivates by liberal culture all the
faculties of the student, memory,
Imagination, intellect and will. Close

Maine One bright Spot

Names continued railroad pros
perity is remarkable. in view of the
deplorable situation elsewhere in New
England. If you wish to find New
England railroads that pay dividends,
so to Maine. The Maine. Central has
gone on its way rejoicing, in spite Of
the troubles of the Boston and Maine.
The Bangor and Aroostook Railroad
has now come back. 1t earned over 6
per cent. on the stock in the year
ending June &c. sr
Prospects of large earnings for the
current fiscal year are bright, as
potato acreage is largely increased,
4 the growing crops are in splendid
condition and many new Industries
are assured for Aroostook County.
The road has ordered several heavy
freight locomotives in anticipation of
increased demands on 1t next fall and
winter" So it goes in Maine, the one

THOROUGHNESS

ST. BENEDICT s
Mental and Physical WeII-Be-
ing of Students Cared for
Adequately.

st. Benedict's College, a day school
for higher education, was established
in 1868 by the Fathers of the Order
OF st. Benedict of New Jersey. Its
location, in High street, near Spring
field and South Orange avenues.
makes 1t easily accessible from all
parts of Newark and suburban cities.
The college preparatory courses
combine Benedictine thoroughness
with modern State board require
meDts, and are fully approved by the
education authorities of New Jersey
and New York. A st. Benedict's GER
tificate admits to all the leading uni
versities and professional schools in
the East.
ST. Benedict's preparatory depart
ment is the Catholic high school Of
Newark, and most of the students
are graduates of the paroohial
schools. There are. many non-Cath-
olics, however, who avail themselves
of the opportunity of sending their
sons to a private high school, where
classes are reasonably restricted and
religious atmosphere predominates.
Although situated in the heart of
busy city, St. Benedict's play
grounds afford ample space for
physical development They COM
prise small outdoor running track,
tennis court, a regulation handball
alley and campus sufficiently large
for practicing baseball and football
Sports are reasonably encouraged and
under the supervision of one of the
fathers.
Although the new building was
opened only four years ago, still for
the last two years it has been filed
to capacity, and plans are being
made for additional buildings.
Studies will be resumed Monday,

St. Petersburg Is Always in
Danger When Neva 0verfows

When the river Neva rises st.
Petersburg is always in danger of
inundation. The city was built upon
swamp, and the land has been la
boriously reclaimed and is liable to
overflow by the Neva. That river d.
vides and forms delta, and this
delta is embraced within the city
limits.
Although the main portion of ST.
Petersburg Is situated on the main
land "a peninsula washed on the east
by the Neva, and on the northwest by
the Great Neva), parts OF the city
stand on islands formed by the arms
of the river.
The islands, with their gardens and
villas. are pretty feature of the cap
ital. The various parts of the city are
connected by over 100 bridges, the
longest being the Troitsky bridge,
about a third of mile in length

A prosperous lumberman lives in
Western Pennsylvania. He owns a
small railroad which runs from his
lumber camp to the main line. He
was riding the other day on crowd

lumberman his card.

of the retired contractor who had en-
gagged an artist to paint portrait of

it seems, had been celebrating their
silver wedding, and little Rosie the
next morning, with commendable
