Registration at Mt. st. Charles Col
lege will be exceptionally large this
year, according to the applications
which are being received each day at
the registrars office. Fifty boys from
Butte have made reservations, while
it is probable that practically every
county in the state will be represented
in the enrolment. Applications have
also been made by boys from Wyo-
ming, Utah, Idaho, Washington and
North Dakota. One man from New
York will attend the college.
The applications have been made
for both high school and college stu
dents. The enrolment of SIS students
in collegiate work last year will be
greatly enlarged this year.
Rev. Emmett O'Neill, brother of
Rev. James O'Neill, vice president of
Mt. ST. Charles College, will be added
to the faculty of the college this year.
Father O'Neill will be professor of
Education.
Rev. Emmett Riley will also be one
of the faculty members, and will be
professor of English. Both Fathers
ONeill and Riley were ordained by
Bishop Carroll at the Cathedral in
June, 1921, and have since then been
taking postgraduate work at the
Catholic University in Washington, D.
G. Father Riley was the first college
graduate from st. Charles College.
The faculty of st. Vincent Academy
is anticipating one of the largest en-.
| rollments it has ever had, during the
| coming school year which began on
| Wednesday, September 6, according
to Sister Hypatia, the superior.
The sisters have. recently pur'
| chased the Raleigh property on Rod
| ney street. Besides a three-story
| brick house, which was one of the
| finest of Helena's early day residence
built at "a cost of 1000, the property
| includes seven lots and several small
buildings. After this year the house
will probably be used as a residence
hall for the boarding pupils, for ad
| ditional class-rooms and domestic
| science laboratories. The frame build
ings will be removed, and the grounds
improved so as to enhance the attrac
tiveness of the campus. The purchase
gives the academy grounds openings
on three streets.
