W.V.U. OPPONENT
Fomorrow's Game at Nor.
gantown Promises to
be Very Interesting.

MoRGANToWN, October 12.-It is
with real fear that West Virginia
University football coaches will send
their eleven into the struggle with
the Carlisle Indian team here tomor.
row afternoon. Not that there Is
any fear OF the weakness OF the West
Virginia team, but because It is gen.
orally felt that the Indians have a
team that ranks with the best in the
country and that It will be another
Of those nip-and.tuck battles such as
have Just been experienced with
Pittsburg and the Navy.
Whether or not West Virginia team
is ready and able to go through an
other such struggle as those two with
only week OF intermission is ques-
tionable. When West Nirginias
schedule was arranged it was felt
that the Indians would not provide
any serious obstacle and that, in fact,
the Indian game coming between the
Navy and Dartmouth would provide
an opportunity for let.down In the
strenuous work for the Varsity men,
and that after the game was made
secure some of the Reserve team men
whoh ave been so anxious to get into
Varsit games could be given their
chance.
But when the season opened and
Carlisle started trimming her oppon-
ents right and left it was soon made
clear that there was fully as much
cause for preparation for the game
with the Redskins as there had been
for Pitt or the Navy II West Virginias
record was ont to suffer another blot
Hence this week has been another
one OF serious grind and there has
been no letup in the work. The re-
suit is that several of the men. not.
ably Harrick, Merideth. Rodgers. and
Heavier are not likely to last thru
out the game II II is as strenuous as
those with Pitt and the Napy
The indications are that another
crowd fully as large as that which
assembled here for the Pitt game last
Saturday a week ago will turn out
here tomorrow. The Indians are a
great attraction not only because of
their strength on the gridiron but be-
cause of the fact that they are the
most picturesque team on the grid.

SLIGHT INCREASE
IN COUNTY SHEEP
Warrington Far Ahead of
All Districts-HaS
3,O9S.

Wool prices soaring at the highest
point ever known in the history Of the
country have done much to encourage
the farmers Of Marion county to raise
more sheep than usual. There is an
increase of 2O7 sheep over the number
that were pastured last year, the fig
ures being 1855 this year against 4,751
last year. The assessment on the
sheep this year is S23,46O against s17,.
63S last year.
While the sheep raising industry has
not been able to touch the zenith that
was established years ago when the
farmer made his money that way in
stead OF collecting royalties for gas,
coal and oil, it is being revived and it
is a step in the right direction. One

Winona, MINI.

The annual reception, given at the
College of st. Teresa Thursday even
ing, December 6, in honor of Rt. Rev.
Patrick Richard Hebron, D. D., bish-
Cd of Winona, was attended by some
twelve hundred Winonans who avail
ed themselves of the opportunity of
meeting and paying their respects to
the head of his Church in the Vino
ma diocese This reception of early
winter has come to be looked forward
to as one of the most enjoyable func-
tions offered at the College of st.
Teresa during the year.
The affair was noteworthy in every
respect, but was nevertheless con,
Quoted along lines appropriate to war
times. No expense was incurred for
decorations, although these were
most effective, and no refreshments
were served. Recognition was given
of the, effective campaign for food
conservation being made in the Wi
mona diocese by the presence in the
receiving line of Mrs. Mary E.. Nc
Cahill of Lake City, who has been
placed at the head of this work in
the diocese. During the reception
hours, from 7 to o'clock, delightful
music was furnished on the harp and
violin by young lady students Of the
college. In the college auditorium a
musical offering of rare excellence
was provided in recital on the new
college. organ by Clarence Eddy, prob
ably the best known American organ
it's. The program opened with Gull
mant's "Marche aux Flamheaux" an6
embraced an interesting suite by Cor
don Balch Nevin. A fine sonata by
Borowski proved very welcome ad
dition to the organist's repertoire
| and was deservedly popular. Anothel
| pleasing number was the Fountain
Reverie," by Percy E. Fletcher, in thu
nature of melody given out by ;
reed stop with ripping accompani
ment of flutes. Music of an earle
period was well represented by tn,
! two Guilmant arrangements of Cou
perrin and Padre Martini, both charm
ing and we'll arranged. The program
was brought to q close with Clarenc
Dicklnson's arrangement of the ma
tional hymns of the Allies, whicl

The first church t. be dedicated to
Our Lady, Queen of Peace, is that of
the celebrated Spanish Benedictine
monastery of Coguillada, near Sara

On communicating his intention to the
sovereign pontiff he has received an
autograph letter thanking him for an
action which Benedict XIV declares is
"a consolation to his heart, .desolated
by the sorrows of the war, and also
an act of fraternal charity from
whence he hopes a reward from the
Blessed Mother To give greater
eclat to the ceremony the Holy Father
appointed his nuncio in Madrid spe-

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
NEWS FROM CAMP DODGE.


Camp Dodge, Ia, December II, 1917
To the Editor:
The outstanding feature of our work
during the past week was the formal
opening of Building No. 3. We have
now our quota-three-of the build
ings in operation.
Sunday last eight Masses were cele-
brated as follows: Four at the main
building and two each at No. 2 and
No. 8. About 1900 were in attend
ance at the Masses, and ninety-one
received Holy Communion. On the
Feast of the Immaculate Conception
five Masses were celebrated, and about
sixty received Holy Communion.
Attractions during the past week
included a musical program by the
35Oth Regimental Band, basketball,
games and the boxing and wrestling
tournament. The latter was preceded
by communal singing, under the direc-
ton of Dean Cowper.
Classes in French have been start
| ed under the tutorship of Captain
| Paragon and Lieutenant Courselie.
| These are held bi-weekly and give
promise of popularity.
Another welcome addition to the
ranks of the clergy is Rev. Raymond
R. Noll, of the diocese of Indianapo-
| lis Catholic readers will be inter
| ested to know that Father Noll is
cousin to Rev. John Noll of the Sun
day Visitor. Father Noll has been
assigned as chaplain to the 33Sth
| Field Artillery. We have now -four
regular army chaplains, as well as the
K. of G. post chaplain at Camp Dodge
1t would be well for each pastor tc
make out a roster Of the boys leaving
his parish and forward same to Camp
Dodge. We know the pastors will
take this request in the spirit in which
it is made, and act accordingly.

Minneapolis Vincentians
COUNCIL ST. VIM
CENT DE PAUL SOCIETY ASKS
AID FOR POOR NEEDS THIS
WINTER WILL BE MANY.

The Particular Council of the St.
oils has sent out the following letter:
Last year for the first time the Par
ticular Council of st. Vincent de Paul
Society made an appeal for funds in
Minneapolis. 1t was then explained
that the Council was recently formed,
and was composed of its own officers
and the presidents and vice presi-
dents of each of the parish confer
ences, of which there are ten in Min
neapOlis.
We feel sure that the work of the
Society has in the meantime become
more generally known, and that our
appeal this year will meet with great
er success. About $500 was collected
last year.
The special work of the Society
during the coming year will be to as
sist the city missionary, Rev. Michael
McRaith. From a report made by him
recently at our quarterly meeting it
is evident he is greatly in need of
funds for providing homes, schooling
and recreation for destitute and or
phan children, and for the assistance
of the poor in many other ways.
The city missionary's work, and
the general work Of the Society, will
be much curtailed unless this appeal
meets with generous response. 1t
is hoped that conferences will be
formed in many of the less prosper
Gus parishes, and that the Particu-
lar Council will be able to lend finan-
cial assistance in all parts of the city
We hope to raise at least $4,000,
and desire that this sum be received
from a large number of donors in or
der that the Society and it's purposes
may become better known in Mime
apolis, and that the burden of financ-
ing it may not be leftsto the few. We
not only ask you to make such a. do
nation as your means permit, but we
are particularly anxious, if there is
local conference in your parish, that
you learn from your pastor and its
officers something about it and take
a personal interest in it's welfare.
The Society of ST. Vincent de Paul
seeks to promote the spiritual good
of it's members and benefactors by
aiding the poor
1t seems particularly appropriate at
Christmas time that all who can af-
ford should make donation to help
in carrying on the work for the COM
ing year, and to bring some of the
seasons joys into the homes of the
friendless and destitute who may
otherwise be forgotten.
Please send your donation to the
treasurer, John M. Gleason, Ill South

REPORT OF THE DIOCESAN DI.

the best month the local Office of the
Society has had since it's establish
ment over year ago. Offerings to
the work of the Missions were receiv-
ed to the amount of $1,107.80. In re-
Spouse to the appeal of the Diocesan
Director, appearing in The Catholic
Bulletin, of November II, no less than
eleven perpetual memberships were
taken in favor of deceased relatives
and friends. The cash offerings in
payment of these memberships
amounted to $4,000.
The little dime banks of the Soci-
ETY., thousand of which were offered
for distribution some months ago, have
more than justified their existence
Already returns have been made on
the banks amounting to many times
their initial cost.
Indeed, the hope Of the Foreign Mis-
sions situation seems to rest in the
ten cent piece. A few banks still re
main for distribution; they may be
