D DUBUQUE COLLEGE

On September twelfth Dubuque Col
lege, Dubuque, Iowa, will enter upon
it's forty-fourth scholastic year. The
number of applications received dur
ing the last few weeks indicates that
the coming year will set a record for
attendance.
During the summer months the
work of improving the buildings and
the grounds has gone forward without
intermission. Loras Hall campus has
been parked and terraced and is now
in first class condition for athletic
contests of every description. The
new main entrance to Saint Joseph
Hall, which is fast nearing completion
will add dignity and beauty to the
front of the building which is now the
home of the academic department.
The work of installing the labora-
tory apparatus of the new science hall
is also progressing rapidly, and Du-
buque College will soon be the proud
possessor of a chemical and physical
laboratory equipment which has been
pronounced by experts to be one of
the best in the state of Iowa. The
interchangeable station is receiving
daily, and the present week
will see new sending apparatus in
stalled.
Three professors have been added
to the faculty. The Reverend Charles
]. Miller, who for two years has been
specializing in science at the Catholic
University, will be associate professor
of science. The Reverend L. B. Ku-
cera, for the past year assistant to
Father O'Brien of Tama, will teach
in the academy. Mr. J. X. Richards
formerly of Columbia University, will
have the classes in Spanish and
French.

RECEPTION FOR FATHER RICE

with gratitude and with the affection
ate solicitude for the various classes
of his flock which has characterized
his priestly work. Il have tried" he
said, ito create better feeling be-
tween Catholics and on-Catholics.
Christ said, GO We into the whole
world and preach the gospel to every
creature If the Catholics are the
only creatures, who are the Protest
ants? We need to know one another
better. There's no such person as an
A. P. A.-he's only showing the wrong
side of his nature. Get his point of
view and show him yours SO that you
can get an equitable adjustment.
Everyone here expects to get to
Heaven; but how are you going to get
along up there unless you make a
start here?"
Toward the close of the meeting J.
P. Mccain moved that those present
escort Father Rice to the parish house.
The motion was carried with a cheer
and then the throng surged out of the
opera house and formed in line of
march, the head of the procession
reaching the priests house half mile
away while many were still seeking
for places in the rear of the process
sion at the theater.
On Friday afternoon great process
sion, headed by the city band, accom-
panied Father Rice to the train. The
parish school children, the Rosary So
ciety, the Young Ladies' sodality and
the men of the parish marched from
the Sacred Heart school to Tower
avenue, down Tower avenue and Win.
ter street to the Northwestern sta
ton where the priest, at a quarter past
six, boarded the train bound for Bruce,
his new field of labor.
Father Rice leaves in Superior a
record and results for one year of pas
toral work which any priest might be
glad to accomplish in several years.
1t was under his leadership that the
long standing debt of $4,000 against
the Cathedral parish was wiped out in
sixty days with the aid of the bequest
of the Right Reverend Monsignor Far
dy. He has been a jealous worker in
the cause of total abstinence and with
in the year of his pastorate more than
one thousand total abstinence pledges
have been signed.
He will carry with him the affection
ate prayers of the Sacred Heart par
ish, while his former parishioners will
hail with joy his return to Bruce, to
which he was first appointed nine
years ago by Right Reverend Bishop
Schinner, first Bishop of Superior.

After Washington had been inaugu-
rated as the first President of the
United States, committee of distin-
guished Catholics sent him memorial
felicitating him on his election. Wash
ington's reply was in part, as follows:
II feel that my conduct in war and
in peace has met with more general
appreciation than could reasonably
have been expected, and | find myself
disposed to consider that fortunate cir
cumstances in a great degree result
ing from the able support and extra
ordinary candor of my fellow citizens
of all denominations.

they will be more apt to allow that all
those who conduct themselves as
worthy members of the community are
equally entitled to the protection of
civil government | hope ever to see
America among the foremost nations
in examples of justice and liberty.
And | presume that our fellow citizens
will not forget the patriotic part which
you took in the accomplishment of
their Revolution and the establish
ment of their government, or the i'm
portant assistance which they receiV-
ed from a nation in which the Catho-
lie faith is professed."
