Annual Report.


tor of the Holy Name of Mary
Church, read his annual report of
the parish at all the masses last
Sunday anL a very creditable report
il was. There is to be noted an in
crease along the whole line of church
activities. The Christmas collections
was the largest in the history OF
the church, which is most gratifying,
considering present conditions. FIR.
Larkin has every reason to be proud
of his administration, financially,
morally and spiritually results are
seen that point to sound judgment
and efficiency in carrying plans for
the betterment of works of the par
ish. The Church of the Holy Name
of Mary has an enviable reputation
among not only the churches of the
city but also amongst the churches
of the entire state. FIR. Larkin
thanked the people for their coopera-
ton and promised them more good
things in the future. That cooper
alton of the people is most gratifying
to leaders, when IL is given, whilst
want OF loyaltF to a cause is heart
rending to the promoters. Inciden-
tally he mentioned the II. y. G. c.
show and although with best inten-
tions and careful wording he has
been misquoted. with of course the
usual results. Well such things are
bound to happen, unfortunate though
it may be.
Special Collections.
The handsome sum of $40 was
the total of the Christmas collections
as announced by the Marist fathers,
in the Church of the Holy Name of
Mary The sum of $140 was col
lected recently for the Belgian suf-
ferens.
Rev. FIR. Delaire, S. NJ, from st. |
Michaels, Convent, La. is in town |
for a few days. He Is looking better |
than ever and feeling as we'll as he |
looks. He has noticed with interest |
the many Improvements in our
town, and these naturally make him I
feel a greater love for Algiers.
Oh, that country fresh air, ETC. |
Let's get some of it," said Father
Cassagne as II he needed any purer
ozone than that which is inhaled by |
us mertals of Algiers; however it
decreed that ii should be thusly
and to the country he went And
some country he found, all wrapped
up in a concentrated brand of
New England fog, plus a Louisiana
chill mixed in, so he came back
minus his smile and swears that he'll
have a contract with old Soil for
some heat and light the next time
he leaves Algiers for distant climes. |
Well FIR. Cassagne took a couple of |
days outing after the Christmas hol-
idays and is now doing business at
same old stand.
Societies.
The Holy Name Society will hold |
its regular meeting Thursday at !
1880. The services will be as usual
in the church ano at the hall 1t
is hoped that little drop in the |
temperature will not keep men away
from such a meeting. Immediately |
after the meeting the officers will go |
over to st. Boniface Hall for the
quarterly meeting of the State |
Board. All officers are requested to
be on hand. These meetings are al
ways very interesting whilst at the
same time they are also instructive.
Communions.
Sunday: At the Mass. the Holy
Name Seniors will receive; at the z
Mass the II. N. Jrs. will receive in
a body, as also the Children of Mary
both seniors and juniors. This year
ought to prove a banner year for
communions. There was a large in
crease last year but there is still a
possibility for a far freater number.
Examinations mt School.
The usual last hour examining is
going on in the school for the semi
annual examinations. FIR. Larkin
and the sisters are kept busy exam
lining and making up reports. II the
results are as good as in the past
some well trained and equipped
will be the results of last
years class. Several are now en-
ployed in different business houses
OF New Orleans and all are doing
well, thanks to their own effort. and
the hard work OF their teachers
Algier's graduates are always in de-
mand.
