Anaconda: The announcement was
made at St. Paul's church that new
parochial school would be built next
spring, and that it would be completed
and ready for occupancy for the be-
ginning of the school year the follow
ing autumn. The architect is al
ready working on plans for the new
building, which will be modern in
every respect. 1t will have eight class
rooms for the grades and large hall

"The two-pocket envelope system
will be started on the first Sunday in
October. The envelopes come in small
| packages, each containing 63 envel-
opes, one for each Sunday and holy
day of the year and few extra ones
for the special collections. The en-

for the regular plate collection, and
the other for the building fund. Each

will be published, of all contributions
during the past month, in st. PauPs

ladies will be to take up a complete
census of the parish They will then
distribute the packages with envel-
opes and at the same time procure
the pledges.
The system has great merit espe-
cially in an industrial center, where
the majority of the people live right
up to their income, and where the in
stallment plan is the only successful
way of raising large sums. Small
amounts, ranging from rs cents to 81
