st. Cloud: The biblical play en-.
titled Queen Esther" Persian
drama was presented at the Cathedral
auditorium last Sunday evening by
the pupils of st. Benedict's College
and Academy, st. Joseph. A gather.
ing that taxed the capacity Of the
large hall attended, and every one
left the hall satisfied to have seen
a most wonderful play presented in
a most perfect manner. The costumes
and the scenery were we'll chosen
adapted to the time and place oil
action, not even the slightest details
having been passed unnoticed. The
light effect was charming. The
ability displayed by the participants
was not that Of amateurs but OF pro-
fessionals. The characters were with
out exception carefully selected, and
it would be hard to decide who of the
various characters deserved most
credit Each and every one from the
Queen down to her attendants at
court, the lowly page no less than the
naughty Hannah played their own in
dividual role, small as it may have
been, played it to perfection. The
articulation was clear and distinct;
the expression natural, always adapt
cd to the occasion; the gestures ar.
tistic, well-balanced. The young
ladies who took part in the presenta
ton of Queen Esther" deserve our
high esteem for the really excellent
and extraordinary talent displayed in
the rendering Of a difficult play. They
have done honor to st. Benedicts
Academy, st. Joseph, where they are
receiving their education, they have
reflected credit on st. M. Dominica
and st. Viva under whose able direc
ton the drama was given, and last but
not least they merited for themselves
the praise that, distracted from the
professional, they have perhaps never
been, and probably never will be, ex
cel!ed by any production on any stage

Brief Reviews and Notices

The Secret Request: BY Christian
Reid. Published by the Ave Maria
Press, Notre Dame, Ind. Price,
1926
Christian Reid's latest contribution
to Catholic literature is a story which
the reader lays down with regret. 1t
is redolent with the aroma of faith
adhered to ut the cost of sacrifice
and in the end triumphing over all
obstacles and bringing a loved one
into the charmed circle of Catholic
truth. The heroine inherits fortune
on condition that she try to induce
the rightful heir, a convert to the
True Faith to return to Professionalism.
Her efforts to fulfill this secret
bequest" leads her to study the doc
trines of the Church and soon she
relinquishes her title to the fortune
and makes her own submission to
the ancient faith. There is, not
dull page in the story or a chapter
that is not pulsing with Catholic
thought and feeling admirably eX-
pressed, without a suggestion of con-
trOversy or uncharitableness. It is a
splendid book to put into the hands
of a person who is we'll disposed
towards the Church and who wishes to
learn something of it's teaching with
out turning to books that are pro-
fessedly doctrinal in aim and con-
tent.
"The Kaiser and Other Poems:" BY
Leo Gregory Published by the An
gelus Publishing Company, Chicago,
Ill.
The leading poem, which gives its
name to the brochure, is an apotheosis
of Emperor William of Germany and
is one OF the many literary illusions
which owes its origin to the war. The
other poems deal with variety OF
subjects. We see no good reason for
the publication of any of these poems
in permanent form. They are jejune
and ephemeral and have little, if any,
real literary merit.
"Wfat An Irishman Means by Ma
chree:" Set to music by Mr.. Garth
an. Published by Leo Feist, Inc,
New York.
This is a musical version Of 'fWhat
An Irishman Means by Machree,"
poem by the Rev. Francis P. Donnel-
ly, S. j., of Gonzaga College, Washing
ton, d. G. The musical Interpretation
is as Gaelic as the song itself and adj
mirably expresses the spirit of the
poem in a fine setting which cannot
fail to please music lovers.

NEED OF AGRICULTURAL TOOLS

Some time ago there arrived in this country French
industrial purchasing commission, whose mission to
obtain construction bridge, railway, road and other
teria This regarded the beginning of series of
purchases Now appears that the appeal is to the
charitable than to those interested in developing the for
egn trade Not much has been heard of France of
the smaller countries Belgium Poland and Serbia, yet it
appears that certain French provinces needy.
The immediate demand is for farming implements,
with which the crops may be cultivated, for contribu
tons of money with which to buy them ''You must pic
re yourself country which is absolutely destitute of
everything except the land" says the committee "The
enemy (Geans) in their retreat from the countries and
territories which they invaded carried away with them
every piece of metal taking the iron shares" The
following implements needed in certain devastated
portions of France Fifty plows fifty harrows fifty disc
plows, fifty weeders twenty-five seeding machines,
twenty-five One-horse reapers twenty-five horse rakes
ten twOwheel farm wagons, twenty-five tedders, 200
churns POO separators 1000 shoves 1000 Spades 1000
scyhes 1000 sckes 100 root cutters and 100 wnnowes
If such need exists in France what must be that of
Poland which has been crossed and recrOssed several
times by the opposing armies? 1t is said that implements
