4ue VuTlSC Cul1U society," WHICH u6u
its birth in the capital of the nation,
celebrated its silver jubilee at the an.
nual meeting, which took place at
Rauscher's. Friday afternoon, April
2Srd. when the members and friends
of the society occupied every avail
able seat to hear the reports of Off
GERS, and to listen to Rev. John ].
Burke, c. S. p, editor of the Catholic
World, deliver his address, in the
course Of which he made a strong
plea for organized charity.
An exhibit of work done by the
children at the different sewing cen
ters proved of great interest to the
guests who crowded the hall.
Rev. John Cavanaugh, G. s. p, pres.
ident of Notre Dame university, was
on the platform with Father Burke,
and delivered short address at the
close of the meeting.
The report of Miss Mary Virginia
Merrick, founder and president of the
society, was listened to with great
interest and showed the Christ Child
society to be in a most fourishing
condition. The growth of the society
was strikingly marked in that portion
of her report which said:
"To clothe an infant child born in
poverty on Christmas Day in honor
of the Christ Child was the humble
beginning of. the society. This work
of practical relief was extended the
first year to one poor mother; last
year 1875 infant outfits were distributed
to the most INDECENT of our city. From
its Inauguration the society has en-
deavored to scatter flowers as well
as grain in the field of charity, and
to bring Christmas joy to the children
of the poor was, together with relief
work, it's original purpose. The first
Christmas five children were made
happy with a gift from the Christ
Child; last Christmas 1900 were re-
membered in His Name.
The report goes on to show that the
first year of the society is pairs OF
shoes and 800 garments were dis
tributed, while last year 233 pairs OF
shoes and 1,7S7 garments were giver
to destitute children, regardless of race
or creed, as from the beginning.
In 1891, the need of fresh.air worl
became evident, and so delicate child
rem were sent to the country for two
weeks; last summer 115 children were
given a summer outing on farm ir
the vicinity of Washington; and the
