4 UNIQUE ENTERTAINING ENT
PROGRAM GIVEN
FOR THE Benefit OF THE DEAF
AND DUMB IN THE TWIN CITIES
-ADDRESSES AND PICTURES IN
TERPRETED BY MISS FANDREM.

A unique entertainment planned pri-
marily for the purpose of giving pleas
ure to the deaf mutes of the Twin Cit
les was held in st. Marks School Hall
last Tuesday evening, February 10.
Another object which it's promoters
had in view was to secure funds for
the erection of a national monument
to Father De PEpee, the originator of
the present conventional signs by
which the deaf and dumb are enabled
to communicate with one another.
The purpose of the entertainment
was set forth by the Rev. James Dona-
hoe, Spiritual Director of the deaf
mutes of the Twin Cities, in brief
Introductory address, which was in
terpreted in the sign language by Miss
Petra Frandrem, whose agility in sign
ing was revelation to all whose ac-
quaintance with the deaf and dumb is
limited. She also interpreted the NOV
ing pictures for the benefit of the hear
ing portion of the audience who would
otherwise lose the full significance of
the scenes portrayed by the films.
In addition to the motion pictures
which showed the various activities of
deaf mutes, the program comprised
the signing of abide With Me- by
Mrs. l.. w. Hodgman, and of "Amer-
ica," by Mrs. Hodgman, Mrs. Bowen
and Miss Vandegrit; a recitation by
Master Alfred H. Schroeder, and a
dialogue by the Misses Holten to show
that the children of deaf mutes do not
always inherit the infirmities of their
parents.
This entertainment was repeated in
the same hall on the following even
ing. 1t was staged in the Holy Ros-
ary School, Minneapolis, on Friday the
18th inst, and will be repeated in the
Auditorium of st. Agatha's Conserva-
tory, St. Paul, on Saturday afternoon,
February IA, at half past two o'clock.
All who can possibly attend should do
so, as the cause is a worthy one and
the program gives an insight into the
life and activities of a class of people
who, despite their handicap, are able
to teach many of their more favored
brethren lessons of persevering en-
deavor in self-betterment which we
rarely expect from those who are de-
prived of hearing and speech.

THE ME- EDIEVAL IDEAL
THE PROTESTANT HISTORIAN
LEcKY SPEAKS OF THE SALU-
TARY INFLUENCE EXERTED ON
CONCEPTION OF THE BLESSED
VIRGIN MARY.

In view of what the Executive Com
mittee of the Catholic women of the
Archdiocese say, in the letter pub
lished elsewhere in this issue, about
the profound influence exercised by the
Blessed Virgin Mary on the civiliza-
tion of the world, and particularly on
the status of woman, it may not be
uninteresting to quote the following
tribute to the Church's teaching in re-
gard to the Mother of God from the
Protestant historian Lecky in his
work on "Rationalism in Europe" He
says:
''The world is governed by it's
ideals, and seldom or never has there
been one which has exercised more
profound and, on the whole, a more
salutary influence than the medieval
conception of the Virgin. For the first
time woman was elevated to her
rightful position, and the sanctity of
weakness was recognized as we'll as
the sanctity of sorrow No longer
the slave or toy of man, no longer as
sociated only with the ideas of degra-
dation and of sensuality, woman rose,
in the person of the Virgin Mother,
into new sphere, and became the
object of a reverential homage of
which antiquity had no conception.
Love was idealiZed. The moral charm
and beauty of female excellence was
for the first time felt. A new type of
oh o4n ao1101 into hnino. q
new kind of admiration was fostered.
Into a harsh and ignorant and be-
nighted age this ideal type infused a
conception of gentleness and purity
unknown to the proudest civilizations
of the past. In the pages of living
tenderness which many a monkish
writer has left in honor of his celes-
tial patron; in the Millions who, in
many lands and in many ages, have
sought with no barren desire to mould
their characters into her image; in
those holy maidens who, for the love
of Mary have separated themselves
from all the glories and pleasures of
the world to seek in fastings and Wig
lis and humble charity to render them
selves worthy of her benediction; in
the new sense of honor, in the chiv-
alrous respect, in the softening of
manners, in the refinement of tastes
displayed in all the walks of society;
in these and in many other ways we
detect its influence. All that was best
in Europe clustered around it, and it
is the origin of many of the purest
elements of our civilization"

APPROVAL OF THE MOST REVER-
END ARCHBISHOP.

To the task, taken to themselves
by the Catholic women of the Diocese
of st. Paul, to complete ana auOfn, in
the new Cathedral, the Chapel of "Our
Lady,, give my most cordial APPROX
al l am sure, the work will be done
we'll and quickly. The Catholic wom-
an does not live, whose love is not
pledged to "Our Lady,, whose pride
it is not to give honor and reverence
to Our Lady,. The Chapel of "Our
Lady, in the new Cathedral, will be
a beautiful monument to the Blessed
Mother, and, at the same time, a mag
nificent token of the noble Christian
womanhood of the Catholic women of
the Diocese of St. Paul.
1 pray God to bless the Chapel of
Our Lady, in the new Cathedral,
and to bless those whose contribu-
tions will authorize them to call this
chapel their own.

CHAPEL OF ST. BON|FACE
MEETING OF GERMAN PRIESTS
OF THE ARCHDIOCESE TO MAKE
ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE CON-
PLETIoN OF THE CHAPEL OF
ST. BONlFACE IN THE NEW
CATHEDRAL.

All the German-speaking priests of
the Archdiocese of st. Paul have been
invited to attend meeting to be held
in the Assumption School Hall, Ex-
change Street, on Thursday after
noon, February 10, at two o'clock.
This meeting is called for the pur-
pose of appointing committee to
take charge of the work of securing
donations for the completion of the
Chapel of ST. Boniface in, the new Ca
thedral, and of making such other ar
rangements as may be deemed neces-
sary for the successful carrying on of
this project.
The Chapel of st. Boniface is one
of the national chapels encircling the
sanctuary of the new Cathedral, and
the work of furnishing and adorning
it has been entrusted to the German
Catholics of the Archdiocese.
This makes two national chapels al
ready disposed of-the Catholics of
Irish descent having taken to them
selves the task of completing the
Chapel of st. Patrick. The remaining
national chapels are those of St.
Remy, the patron of France; st. Au-
gustine, patron of England; st. Ans
garius, patron of the Scandinavian
peoples, and SIS. Cyril and Methodius,
patrons of the Slavonic races. AS far
as possible similar arrangements will
be made for the completion of these
chapels.

bridal robes and put on the Religious
Habit which had been previously
blessed at the altar.
On their return to the Choir, the
beautiful strains of the Guam Di-
lecta" terminated, and the newly
clothed Novices took up the singing
of the "Regnum Mundi," after which
they approached to receive from the

Religious, and also the names by which
they will be known henceforth: Miss
Mary Ellen Duffy, Prince Edward
Island, Sister Mary of st. Roberta;
Miss Helen Lotus, Faribault, Mime
sofa, Sister Mary of st. Agnes.
Then the four Novices whose two
years of probation had terminated,
came forward to respond to the inter-
rogations of the Celebrant, who being
satisfied with their answers, permitted
them to pronounce the Holy Vows OF
the Order; after which a black Veil,
Silver Heart and Cross were given
to each of the newly professed whose

"BURY ME IN THE SUNSHINE"

The following lines, written by
James c. Nolan of st. Paul, were sug-
gested by the words of we'll known
ecclesiastic who, at a recent gather

the sunshine.
Bury me in the sunshine; there would
1 have my rest
On some fair slope, tree-sentlneled, IN
the great all-mother's breast,
Rain-swept, wind-swept, snow-swept as
the seasons come and go,
And God renews the gala-dress of this
His world below.
"Sarcophagus of porphyry, in dismal
crypt and vault,
If this must be the seal OF fame
gladly make default.
For me the sunshine; twittering birds,
the waters gurgling flow,
Where God renews the gala-dress OF
this His world below"

CRAZY FRENCHMAN
GOING TO PATTON

A. M. Ziltner, born in France and
later resident of Switzerland, who
came to the Imperial Valley several
months ago and who was found wan
dering on the streets of Imperial in
a demented condition, will be sent to
Patton for treatment. A commission
composed of Drs. Luckett and Virgil
McCombs examined Ziltner and found
him to be fairly rational, but it has
since developed that his mania has
returned.
Ziltner has been detained in the
county hospital under medical sur
veillance in the hope that he would
rally from his alteration. His chief
mania is to tear his clothes and bed
clothing. He threw the food handed
him on numerous occasions at those
who brought it to him. His case has
been perplexing to the physicians,
who were of the opinion that Ziltner
would finally recover, but his demean-
or has been such recently as to pre-
clude the idea of ultimate cure.
