COLLEGE of ST. Thomas: The st.
Thomas College Alumni Bulletin has
made it's first postwar appearance. 1t
is brimful of interesting facts and
data on st. Thomas part in the great
struggle. 1t contains also a lengthy
list of students and alumni who
served in the war.
St. Joseph's Academy: On March
II, st. Patrick's Day, the faculty and
students of the Academy were very
pleasantly entertained with harp
recital given in the Assembly Hall of
the school by Mrs. Frances Hughes
Wade, of Chicago. In honor OF the
day the program consisted principally
of Irish airs peculiarly adapted to the
harp. These familiar airs were re-
lieved by some more classical num-
bers and a group of fascinating South
ern melodies. Mrs. Wade is an artist
of rare ability as was demonstrated
by the manner in which she held her
audience spell-bound during the entire
program.
College of st. Catherine: Miss Ada
X. Cannon, National Chairman of the
Irish History Department of the Hi
bernian organization, delivered a lee
ture on "The Irish Republic" at the
College on Saturday, March Is. To
create a public opinion based on the
study of Irelands cause, is the desire
of such able speakers on the Irish
situation as Miss Cannon. She gave
the events leading to the organiza-
ton of the Irish Republic, the declara-
ton of independence, and the draw
ing up of the constitution-the ideas
of Irish statesmen on nationhood based
on the ideas of America. Today there
is an Irish Republic with the Parlia-
ment in session in Dublin; its elected
president, Edward De Valera is in
hiding. To know the situation is to
see the wrong Ireland has suffered for
seven hundred years. That the Irish
Republic will receive its due recogni-
ton at the Peace Table is our earnest
desire.
Miss Cannon gave a very instructive
and interesting lecture course in Par
liamentary Law, at the College, the
week beginning March 10. Two
classes were conducted daily; one
from eleven to one o'clock, the other
from seven forty-five to nine forty
FIVE. The morning class included the
bulk of the college students, while the
evening class, also largely made up
of students, was attended by num-
Der of women of st. Paul.
Miss Helen Stewart, of Derham Hall
High School, College of st. Gather
