NOTED SYRIAN PRELATE PASSED
AWAY IN MARSElLLES, FRANCE
HAD BEEN SENTENCED TO
DEATH BY TURKS.

The news has been confirmed of
the death in Marseilles, France, of
Most Reverend Athanasius Sawaya,
Archbishop of Beyrouth and Giberil
in Syria He was born III 197-.
For well nigh 25 years the name
of Athanasius Sawaya in Syria has
stood as synonym for personal
worth and efficiency. Whilst still a
deacon, his Order, that of st. Basil,
elected him head of the Seminary of
st. John the Baptist, Mr.. Lebanon,
where his gifts of mind and soul found
ample play. Tall and scholarly in ap-
pearance, he was a fine type of the
culture of the Orient. Cheerful, pa
tient and active, considerate and help
full, it was always Athanasius SaWaya
with his cOuntrymen.
After fourteen years service as
teacher of music, language, philoso-
ply and theology, his many requests
for retirement were at last granted.

K. OF C.. NEW PLAN

| conference in New York at which
famous national educators will advise
| them concerning the contemplated
| plan, which comprises curriculum
of technical and other studies for the
| 100000 members of the Knights OF
| Columbus, and for others not mem
/, berS of the organization who desire
| to take advantage of the courses to
be offered. The aim will be to teach
practical citizenship and to give
young men executive, technical and
cultural training that will combine to
render their citizenship more effec-
tive This is the general scheme, but
entire week of July 27 will result in
a concrete program for presentation
to the Peace Convention of the
Knights of Columbus, which will be
held in Buffalo on August Sc.
The X. of C. committee in charge
of this work comprises Supreme
Knight James A. Flaherty of Phila-
delphia, Supreme Secretary William
Mckinley of New York and Supreme
Advocate Joseph C. Pelletier of Bos-
ton.
The Knights already maintain up
wards of $50 university scholarships
throughout the country and they are
operating technical and law schools
in several of the camps. This plan
will be to render popular and prac-
tical supplementary education calcu-
lated to improve the lot of the aver
age young man, which can be done
through the 1900 councils of the K.
of c. The present scope of the idea
is restricted to men, but it may be
developed to include women.
