Howard was appointed Superior and
1t was owing to the zeal and skillful
management of this admirable woman
that the little community was enabled,
in 1885, to buy the Palmer property
on Exchange street This building
was used as kindergarten from 1886
to 1888. To meet the urgent demands
for classes in music and art the Sis
ters were obliged to build an addition
to it, and new building, consisting
of sleeping rooms and Chapel, was
erected in 1891.
This marked the beginning of st.
Agatha's Conservatory. Regular
classes in music and art were now
established. The little community in

The next ten years mark a period of
rapid development in the work of edu-
cation. In September, 1863. St. Jo-
seph's Academy was opened at its
present location. This institution ac-
commodated both day and resident
pupils until 1905, when on the erec-
tion of the College of ST. Catherine it
became exclusively a day school. Dur
ing the sixty-eight years of it's exist
ence it has been the only Catholic
High School for girls in st. Paul and
has trained large proportion of the
Catholic women whose influence has
been most powerful for good in the
religious, social and intellectual life
of the community.
This year, the 68th of it's history,
the Academy has an enrolment of ATS
pupils. The faculty consists of twen-
ty-seven members of the Sisterhood
and able instructors from among prom
inent priests of the city. The curric-
ulum provides a full academic course
of four years, which prepares gradu-
ates to enter college. Unusual ad-
vantages are also offered in art and
music. Side by side with courses in
secular instruction proceed courses in
Religion embracing Christian Doctrine,
Bible Study and Course of Ethics.
All efforts are combined to produce
the intellectual, cultured Christian
woman.
If sixty-eight years of efficient serv.
ice to ST. Paul means anything; if
half century's experience in train
ing youth is deserving of any recogni-
ton; if planting high ideals of woman
hood claims any applause, st. Joseph s
Academy should be rightfully called a
benefactor of the Sanity City.

Optimistic on the Market

Byron w. Holt, Of Goodbody & Co,
takes an optimistic view Of the long
outlook for prime securities. 1.-THE one
big fact that stands out to-day like
pikestaf in front of investors says
MIR. Holt, "is the unprecedented decline
in the prices of commodities. Under
existing banking conditions this de-
cline almost surely means substantial
lly lower rates for money in the near
future. 1t is in expectation of these
lower rates that the prices Of good in
vestment bonds and stocks have for
some time. been advancing We ex
pect this advance to continue for sew
eral months. Except for brief inter
walls, we do not expect this advance to
stop for several years, or until the
prices Of good securities are back to
where they were decade ago. Unless
the income tax should be reduced such
an advance cannot occur until most OF
the securities whose incomes ere sub
ject to taxation are owned by mer of
moderate means. Undoubtedly the
shifting of bspds and preferred stocks
from the very rich to ordinary investors
nas been proceeding rapidly for two
years."
