becomes exhausted, the excess death
claims will be met by the class in
which. the deaths occur, Class /. by
additional assessments, and Glass IT,
by drawing ON it's Independent re-
serve fund. 1t is maintained by actu-
aries of the C. M. B. A. that the rates
of assessments applicable to members
who joined the organization since
January, 1904, are adequate to assure
the perpetuity of the organization.
How long the present reserve fund
will last is purely problematical An
officer of the Supreme Council de-
clared to a representative of The
Echo that it was his opinion that it
would probably not become exhausted
for eighteen months. After it is ex-
hausted there would probably be from
ten to twelve additional assessments
year for the members Of Glass /.
though if there is a healthy and nor.
NAL growth in the membership, this.
number may be decreased.
Members belonging to Glass I. may
join Glass II. by paying the lien
against their policy, and hereafter
paying the assessment according to
the age attained on January, 1904.
Members may transfer at any time
before January 1, 1919.

THE c. M. B. A. FUND
SEPARATE RESERVE FUND WILL
BE CREATED FOR THOSE CON-
STlTUTING CLASS II.

AT the special session Of the Su-
preme Council of the Catholic Mutual
Benefit Association, which was held
at Hotel Astor, New York, on Tues
day, March 6, final action on the re-
adjustment of the organization was
taken. The entire reserve fund of
the association, as it existed on March
6, was allotted to Class l. A separate
reserve fund will be created for the
members of the organization consti-
tuting Class Ii. The Supreme COun-
Gil acted in accordance with the re-
cent decision of Justice Dudley, who
sanctioned the adoption of the classi-
fication plan enacted by the Supreme
Council at it's session in October,
1915, but did not permit a division
of the reserve fund as it existed on
January /, 1916. The plan adopted
in October, 1915, was to become
effective on January 1, 1916, but be-
fore it could be enforced, several
members secured an Injunction re-
straining the Supreme Council from
making the proposed classification in
membership and from dividing the re-
serve fund.
Class l. is composed of members
who joined the organization before
Jan. /, 1904, when the last readjust-
ment in rates was made. On Jan. 20,
1917, the reserve fund amounted to
47,192.71, and after deducting the
death claims which accrued until
March 6. approximately $S00,000 will
remain in the same. An increased
number of assessments will there
fore not become necessary until the
present reserve is exhausted. There
are approximately $4,000 members in
Glass l. and $4,000 in Glass II.
While separate and distinct re
serve funds will hereafter be main
tanned, the beneficiary fund will re
main the common fund of both classes

A SACRED CONCERT
RECEIVED AT PER.
FORMANCE IN ST. GATHER
INES COLLEGE.
written for The Catholic Bulletin by
VIM. r. Markoe.)

Amid the din and crash of war
and rumors of war" it was like the
odor of lilies and roses to listen to
the gems of sacred music by such
masters as Pergolesi, Palestrina, Or
lando di Lasso, and Rhienberger, rem
dered by chorus of 100 voices under
the skillful baton of Professor Leo
pold G. Bruenner at St. GATHERINGS
College Monday evening, March II.
In Pergolesi's Stabat Mater there
are no startling bravuras, no military
marches: it is passionless and prayer
full throughout, as all true church
music should be. The profound effect
it produced was plainly visible in the
wrapt attention of the audience, even
more than in the hearty applause be-
slowed. Could that touching plant
of the Mournful Mother be heard in
the bloody trenches of Europe it
would come like the drop of water
begged of Lazarus by the rich man in
hell; it would surely restore to war
ring world that peace which the
world cannot give
Palestrina's "Jesu Rex Admira-
Bills, and Orlando di Lasso's Ado
ramus TIE Christie, were beautifully
rendered "a capella'', while Rhein-
berger's exquisite Daughter of
Jairus," brought the program to fit
ting close.
The chorus was composed entirely
of young fresh voices so mobile and
pliable, and SO thoroughly trained
that Professor Bruenner manipulated
them as easily and skillfully as he
would the keys and stops of an organ
and they responded as readily and
faithfully, now loud, now soft, now
swelling to an impressive climax, now
fading away to the softest pianissimo
1t is worthy of note that the effects
were largely enhanced by the splen
did acoustics of the halle The solo
lists, pianist and orchestra were al
excellent. Thanks to the efforts Oi
Professor Bruenner, Father Talbot
and others, st. Paul Catholics are
at last coming into their own in the
| matter of true church music. Me
diaeyal music well rendered cannot
| fail to leave a deep and lasting i'm
preston on both hearers and singers
