Erin PRAIRIE WIS. A. D. \. Plan HOME COMING

The Ancient Order of Hibernians
of this county will hold a picnic at
Erin, Wednesday, June is. The af
fair promises much that is entirely
out of the line of ordinary picnics,
for it is made the occasion for home
coming of former residents of Erin
Prairie. Perhaps there is no town
in st. Croix County from which more
sons and daughters have emigrated
to the west than from Erin, says the
New Richmond Leader. And it is with
the hope of making the celebration
on the 9th the occasion for visits by
hundreds Of these men and women to
the old home town that an elaborate
program has been prepared and an
extensive advertising campaign inau-
gurated.

dent of the A. o. H., informs US that

To Catholic educators and those
interested in the work which they are
doing the coming convention at St.
Paul of the Catholic Educational AS
sociation, holds q paramount place in
their plans. Men prominent in edu-
cational circles from all over the
country, east and west, have signi-
fed their intention of being present,
and papers and discussions bid fair to
attract wide attention.
The convention, as has been previous
ly announced, will take place on the
last week in June, opening on Mon
day, June %, and closing on Thursday,
July 1. This year the public mass
meeting, which is always a feature of
the closing night, will be held on
Wednesday night, in order that all dele
gates '1nay be pres. IL The mass meet
ing will be held in the st. Paul Au-
ditorium, and a general invitation has
been extended to the public at large
to be present, especially non-Catho-
lies who may desire to familiarize
themselves with Catholic ideals in
education. Speakers of nationwide
prominence will speak on the follow
ing subjects: "Our Schools and What
They Have Accomplished" ''The
Ideals of Catholic Colleges; ''The
Catholic Citizen and Catholic Educa-
tion." In addition to this, a musical
program of exceptional merit will be
given.
The local arrangements have been
perfected by competent committees
of priests from ST. Paul and Minneap-
oils; and nothing will be wanting to
make this twelfth annual meeting
fruitful in good work.
The teaching Sisterhoods will be
largely represented at the Convention
this year and some valuable papers
will be presented by them for discus
sion. Many of the Sisters will stay
at the converts of their respective Or.
ders in the Twin Cities. For those

Twin Cities have taken an earnest and
active interest in promoting the plans
for the Convention, it is expected that
very large crowd from these cities
and their environs will be present at
the opening service.
Two papers in the college depart
ment of more than ustal interest will
be those on "The Life and Work of
Gregory Mendel," by Rev. John Sc.
liskar of the St. Paul Seminary, and

Restrained from Using Gasoline
Name

A few days ago three dealers in fuel
oil In Atlantic City were served with
preliminary injunctions issued on The
application of the Standard Oil Com
pany, of New Jersey, by Chancellor
Stevens, restraining them from using
.tStandard Gasn and STANDARD Gaso-
Iinev as the names of a product they
offered for sale. The interesting ques-
ton OF the difference between a noun
and an adjective Ia the promotion OF
trade is brought up.
The papers in the case allege that the
term "Standard Gas" has been used
widely through the State to describe
the gasoline manufactured by the
Standard OIL Company.
Many garages which sell the Stand
ard OIL Company's product were shown
to have erected signs Of their own
which read STANDARD Cas-" despite
the fact that the company furnishes
signs describing its product as "Stand-
ard Gasoline' and Standard "Motor
Gasoline
The extensive advertising by the
Company of these terms STANDARD
Gasoline" and "Standard Motor Gaso-
linev was described to sustain the
plaintiffs claim to the use of the nouns
which have become familiar all over
the State featuring "Polarine aud
Standard Gasoline.n
The Company contended that the
names STANDARD Gas" and "Standard
Gasoline" have now become peculiar
trade names of its product, and that
persons who ask for gasoline under
these names In practically every in
stance are seeking to buy its product,
and nothing else, and 1t claims the
right TO use the word standard in
the manne it is used, as an identifying
term.
Competition In the Gasoline business
in New Jersey Is very active, and vari-
Gus dealers who do not sell the Stand
ard Oil Company's product have
sought TO increase their business by dis
playing signs reading STANDARD Cas-
and at the same time have furnished
the public, not with the Standard Oil
Company's gasoline, but with some
thing else which, whatever its merits,
is not ''Etandard Gasoline"
The papers in these cases show also
that n at least of THESE defendants, on
being demonstrated with by the Stand
ard Oil Company for his use of this
name, vigorously asserted that in doing
80 he was within the law. This Is the
very question that the Standard Oil
Company wants to test, and have
settled by a legal adjudication.
