OUR LADY OF THE LAKE PA
ROCHIAL SCHOOL CLOSES.

Vaudeville, June .7.-Our Lady of
the Lake Parochial School closed
Friday, June 2. The experience Of
many years taught that elaborate ex-
ercises for the closing of the school
greatly interfere with the good re-
suits to be achieved by the final ex-
aminations, and for that reason the
lengthy closing exercises have been
eliminated in all parochial schools
of New Orleans and the country.
Two graduates were awarded di-.
tplomes for finishing the eighth grade
or Grammar Course: Golda Archer
and Mary Victoria Marsh.
Six pupils merited the certificate
of rapid muscular business writing
by the American Penman Of New
York -, Dorothy Smith, Eva G1vens,
Blanche David, Josephine Marsh,
Charlet Vulliet and Marporie 1nnes.
June 9Th, the Most Reverend Arch
bishop J. ". Shaw arrived in Mande-
vile, accompanied by Right Rev.
Abbot Paul, to administer confirma-
tion to fifty-one children. A large
crowd of parishioners had come to
the church to witness the ceremony,
which was highly ennobling. The
tall figure of the Archbishop, robed
in his episcopal vestments, the beau
tifully decorated sanctuary, the sol
emn strains of the choir, impressed
all present. The following priests
were present in the sanctuary: Rt.
Rev. Abbot Paul, 0. S. B., Rev. Ber-
nard, O. S. B., Rev. John Burger,
o. S. B., Rev. Juan, O. S. B., and
Rev. Thomas, 0. S. B.

not only In Washington but through.
out the country.
The progresslves do not expect too
much at this session. They will not
reach their full strength IN either
house until after March 4. They are.
however. powerful enough In the
senate TO put mp sturdy fight.
What appears likely to happen is
compromise legislation in which some
administration ideas and some prog
ressive ones will appear. The
progressiyes are not opposed to the
proposed administration plan but
they hold It does not go far enough,
nor hit directly at the cause OF agri-
cultural Ills.
Both the congressional groups Of
progressives will plunge at once into
the work outlined at the Friday and
