Sister Xavier's Feast.
Sunday last the feast of st. Fran |
ces Xavier was the patronal feast of |
the beloved Mother Superior of our
school. That her popularity is all
ways on the increase was manifest |
ed by the numerous congratulations
wishes and presents that were sent
to her. She entertained at luncheon

chaplain OF the sisters; Rev. NJ ]. |
Larkin, s. NJ, Rev. ]. p. Cassagne, |
5. NJ, Rev. ]. A. Petit, S. NJ, Misses |
M. and VI. Hage erty and l. Sullivan. |
Many valuable and pretty presents
were sent. showing the apprecia- |
tion that the friends of Sister Xavier |
have for the unqualified good work
she is doing for the children of the
parish.
A most pleasing entertainment
was given in her honor by the chill
dren of the school. 1t was a beau

mother they love. 1t seems that

OF life. Most of the pupils received
communion on that day.

is well pleased with Ole Jefferson.
On the other nand he is doing his
work we'll and the arduous duties oil

All the Algiers boys could do forI
thanksgiving was to think of Homet
sweet Home, for none were allowed
TO come. However the authorities J
Of the college generally manage to
make 1t very interesting on those !
lays.
