The eight-day campaign to raise
funds for new addition to st. Johns
Hospital, conducted by the Sisters of
st. Joseph, Fargo, NJ D., was brought
to. close on Wednesday evening Of
last week with grand total of
$54, ,000.10, contributed by the business
and professional men of that city and
other nearby towns In view of the
local conditions and the many demands
made upon the citizens of Fargo, the
result is highly complimentary to
their generosity, and testimonial of
appreciation for st. Johns Hospital
which speaks volumes for the institu-
tion and it's usefulness as an adjunct
to the city.
When the director of the campaign,
Mr. Charles j. Sheffield of Cleveland,
Ohio, made the preliminary survey of
the situation in Fargo he concluded that
it would scarcely be possible to raise
more than $4,000 But the result sur
passed his most sanguine expectation.
His experience in such matters may be
gagged from the fact that the campaign
just closed was the thirty-ninth con-
Quoted by him for Catholic purposes.
The actual work of soliciting was
done by the members of fifteen teams,
eight of which were composed OF
women, and seven of men, each with
| its captain. The workers reported
every evening at a luncheon attended
by the executive committee, the mem
bers of the teams and interested
| friends, in the Knights of Columbus
hall, the local headquarters. A flag
was presented to the team in each
division, reporting the largest daily
amount, and at the close of the
campaign four silver loving cups
were donated = two to the teams
in the mems division, and two to the
teams in the women's division obtain
| ing the highest amounts in the eight
day period. In the mems division, the
cups were won by team No. 2, cap
tanned by Matt Camitsch, with a total
of $7,705; and by team No. s, led BY

Moorhead and Wild Rice, the latter

ed all for the magnificent spirit of
NOOpCl dl1OA lnCy anu
to which he attributed the success Of
the campaign He singled out for spe-
cial mention, the Right Reverend
Bishop O'Reilly who gave moral and
financial support to the project; the
Rev. Thomas Egan, pastor of st.
Mary's Cathedral, who had given
| him invaluable assistance and ad-
vice; the Rev. Alfred Mayer, o. s. b.,
of Moorhead, who had encouraged
the project by word and example
among his people; and the Rev.
J. A. Lalonde of Wild Rice, whose
parish made SO generous response
to the appeal, as well as all the other
clergymen who had shown zeal in
making the campaign decided success.
Nor did he forget the courtesy of the
press of Fargo, of the Knights of Col
umbus who gave their club house for
| the local headquarters, and of the
officers of the First National Bank,
the depository of the fund.
Referring to the campaign "The
Fargo Forum says: From every
point at which the work of the
campaign can be taken into con-
| sideration, it was a tremendous
success. The grip taken by the busi-
ness and the professional men of the
city to push 1t along proved that St.
Johns hospital is one of the leading
business institutions of the city, and
| that much of the wealth which comes
here flows through the channels run
ming to that hospital"

I'VE are face to face with the Church
of Christ in it's manner of life and self
perpetuation, with the visible and ap-
proachable modes of action, through
which it speaks the revelation OF
Christ, and administers His favors and
graces. We are face to face with the
priesthood of the Church.
However divine in origin and interior
life, the Church, moving and working
among men, in behalf of men, must
have in it's exterior life its human or
