Pro-cathedraI Of St. Mary: A spe-
cial course of instructions suitable for
non-Catholics as well as Catholics will
be given by the pastor, Reverend
Thomas E. Cullen, at the Sunday
evening devotions. The special class
for non-Catholics which was conduct
ed in the school building until the
holiday season, will not be resumed
during the winter months. The sever
ity Of, the. weather makes it difficult
for large numbers to attend regularly,
and accordingly, the Sunday evening
course of instruction in Christian Doc
trine will take the place of the even
ing classes for the present.
Students Catholic Association: The
Catholic students of the University
of Minnesota at their association meet
ing last Sunday afternoon in the Edu-
cation building, listened to a stirring
appeal by Rev. Thomas E. Cullen Of
the Pro-Cathedral parish on the re-
sponsibility of the Catholic in the
State University. Father Cullen
compared the Catholic student to
the Magi. He pointed out the
dangers of the materialistie philos-
ophy so prevalent in our American
universities, until the recent conflict
of barbarous forces in the world war
revealed the terrible consequences of
that philosophy-and of every philos-
ophy that fails to recognize the Super
natural. Now that materialism has
been discredited by it's own votaries
| in our universities and men are seek
| ing for new lights to guide them, Faith
er Cullen pointed out that it is the
opportunity for the Catholic student
in the university to become the apos.
| tie of the Supernatural in the univers-
| ity, to saturate their own minds and
hearts with the knowledge and the
love of the religion which alone can
deliver society from the blind pride
| and destructive selfishness of the in
dividual. A splendid musical program
was rendered by members of the asso
citation.
| Church of st. Lawrence: "The
Question Box" every Sunday evening
! at eight o'clock, has reused an encour
aging degree of interest throughout

tions placed in the box. The Holy
Hour devotion begins every Friday
evening at eight o'clock.
