the American Negro Missions was de-
livered by the Rev. d. J. Dustin, as
sistant director of the Catholic Board
for Mission Work Among the COlOred
People. Techny, H., the Cradle Of
the Crusade, was ably represented by
the Rev. Bruno Hagspiel, S. V. d.
one of the foremost missionary stat
isticians in the country. This mis-
sionary apostle, in. an eloquent ad-
dress, contrasted the life of women
in our land with the degraded condi-
ton of the sex in un-Christian lanes.
An authentic stereopticon lecture on
Africa was ably handled by Rev. =.
j. O'Connor, who has spent seven
years in western Africa. Rev. DR.. Mi
chael Mathis, C. S. c., editor of the
Bengalese Magazine, dwelt at length
and very thoroughly on the vast field
of India and especially the section OF
Bengal which is given over to the
Holy Cross Fathers, showing that
splendid work is being done. The
Very Rev. James A. Walsh, M. AD.,
Rector of Maryknoll, declared that the
East had been justified, that what had
been said of India was true of China.
Before opening the business meet
ings proper, all the delegates attended
Pontifical High Mass, which was cele-
brated by His Grace Archbishop Noel
Ter, of Cincinnati.
The progress of the Crusade since
the last Convention is worthy of note.
Senior units increased one hundred
per cent, totaling 312. To date, III
Junior units have been affiliated, and
the Veteran membership now numbers
400. Altogether, there are over Co.
900 members belonging to the Cru
SADIE During the past year, less than
200 units contributed more than $780,
600 to the support of the different mis-
sions. But this financial consideration
is nothing compared to the spiritual
contributions. A three-months' report
records the following, among other
items:
Rosaries, $4,000; Communions, Co..
289; Notifications, 52,156; Visits to
Blessed Sacrament, 1854; Masses,
73,S03; Prayers, 1,796,410.
The officers of the coming year were
elected. Because of his many duties,
Bishop Shahan resigned, and Arch
bishop Moeller presided in his place.
Mgr. Beckman and Father Thill were
elected respectively Chairman and
ecretary-Treasurer Of the Executive
Board. Mr.. Anthony P Laverty of
Boston, Mass, Miss Mccarthy of Lor-
retto Academy, Webster Groves, Mo-.
and Mr. R. J. Kitsteiner, Of the Uni
yersity of Dayton, were selected as
student members Of the Board.

. LETTER TO EDITOR
REPORT OF THE CONVENTION OF
} THE CATHOLIC STUDENTS
o. MISSION CRUSADE.

3 The Third General Convention of the
Catholic Students Mission Crusade
was held at Dayton, Ohio, last month.
In every detail the Convention was a
grand success. The faculty of the Uni
versity of Dayton-members OF the
Society of Mary-made possible the
splendid accommodations afforded to
the seven hundred delegates, and the
citizens of Dayton, irrespective OF
creed, gave the Crusaders a hearty
welcome.
In general, the Convention program
was divided into two sections: Bust
ness meetings in the morning, and
Mission Review meetings in the after
noon, with program by the Universe
ty of Dayton Orchestra and the Day
ton Choral Art Society, and lectures
lin the evening. Rev. DR.. Joseph DON
ovan, C. NJ, of Kenrick Seminary,
Webster Groves, Mo-, gave some very
useful hints in the organization OF
the Junior units. In the past year,
DR.. Donovan has organized 20 Junior
units in st. Louis. In her paper, "The
Junior Crusade" Miss Mcdonald
pleaded for more interest and atten-
| ton in the Juniors" and suggested a
plan of closer connection between the
Juniors and the Seniors With the
idea of one big family in mind, as the
model of organization, she suggested
that each Senior, big Brother" or
big Sister" unit, should assume the
guidance of Junior Little Brother
or Little Sister unit. This plan was
adopted.
The Mission Review meetings fur
nished abundant information on the
Missions scattered all over the world,
and provided splendid diversion to the
| delegates, following the strenuous
business meetings of the morning. All
the Mission Review meetings were il
Illustrated with stereopticon views.
The Convention was honored with
lectures by some of the most notable
figures in the missionary vineyard at
home and abroad. Rev. Eugene Nc
Guinness of the Catholic Church Elk
tension Society made clear the work
of this society among our own home
missions. Rev. VIM. Huffer, Bureau
of Catholic Indian Missions, after
showing the right the Indian has to
our help, told of the progress that is
being made among the true natives OF
America. A very interesting as well
as instructive illustrated lecture on

DIOCESE OF CROOKSTON

4 Crookston: The Diocesan Synod
will be held in the Cathedral next
Tuesday morning. All the clergy of
the diocese, both diocesan and regular,
will assemble in the Cathedral hall,
whence at S:45 they will march in
procession to the Cathedral where the
Synod will open with the celebration
of solemn High Mass in honor of the
Holy Spirit coram Episcopo.
Red Lake Falls: Rev. Dean Lemire
is having his church decorated by
eastern artists. The paintings, al
ready on exhibition, will be great
ornament to the church. This finish
ing touch will make the property Of
st. Joseph's parish a beautiful spot,
| on which are located also a commo-
| dious school and a fine residence.
| Through the activity of Father Mer-
rill, the town of Red Lake Falls is as
sisting his parish in the erection of
a suspension bridge over the Clearwa
ter river. This improvement will
make it very convenient for the par
ishioners and will prove to be of great
benefit to st. Mary's parish by short
ening the distance to the church.
| Tabor: The Bishop confirmed a
large class last Sunday, assisted by
Father John Berger, the pastor, Fa
Their Dufault of the Cathedral and Fa
t4l ~ OR o,t r
Forks. Through the zeal and activit,
of Father Berger, Tabor has become {
model country parish. The church
with it's stained glass windows, it
beautiful affairs and statuary, the pres
bytery modern and up-to-date, and tn,
fine nearby cemetery, reflect grea
credit on the pastor.
