ACADEMY IS DESTROYED

st. Johns Academy, the Mother
house of the Sisters of st. Joseph, at
Superior, Wis, was practically de-
stroyed by fire last week. The up
per floors were total loss and the
ground floor was ruined by water.
Crossed wires are supposed to have
been the cause; and, while some in
surance was carried, it will not begin
to approximate the loss. Fortunately,
the children had not arrived at the
school and no one was injured. Tenn
porarily the Sisters are conducting
their classes in the Knights of Col
umbus Home.

Accommodation for so laymen will
be provided at the Malvern retreat
house, the. new home acquired by the
Laymen's Week End Retreat League
of Philadelphia. 1t is expected that
the new retreat house will be dedicat-
ed on May 21.
The Rev. Joseph M. Corrigan, DID,,
of the faculty of st. Charles Seminary
Overlook, has been named retreat
master. The fact that there were
more than 100 participants in re-
treats at Oyerbrook Seminary, where
the exercises have been held hitherto
and where only two weeks were per
mitted each year, testiffes to the
growth of this form Of devotion in the
Philadelphia archdiocese.

MAKES PLEA FOR MORE PoLlTI.
CAL TOLERANCE.

Writing to Rev. C. Cunningham, who
presided at recent meeting in Tuam,
County Galway, Archbishop Gilmartin
said:
Every freeman has fundamental
right to his political views. The peo.
pie have a fundamental right to come
together to discuss political and SO
cial questions. Any interference with
the right of public meeting and the
free expression of views, is tyranny
We have got rid of one tyranny Let
us then show the world that we are
capable Of governing ourselves after
the Christian ideal"
