He suggested that the situation be first studied by a competent inves- tigator, favored by the Governor and the Legislature. The matter was then referred by the Delegate to Governor Parks, who conferred with Commissioner of Education Keller, after which the Governor wrote:
 After a thorough discussion, we decided that it would be much bet ter if the matter is approached along the lines suggested by Dr. Wright. Accordingly, we will take up the matter with the next Legis- lature and request authority to en- gage the services of a representative appointed by the Director of Voca- tional Education. If the findings are favorable, the matter will then be presented to you for appropria- tion."

MILITARY MASS AT OLD
BOHEMIA
Oldest Catholic Church On The
Delmarya Peninsula

A military mass in commem-
Grafton of the bi-centennial of
Washington's birth will mark
the celebration Of the 228th
year of the foundation of st.
Francis Xavier's Church, bet
ter known as Old Bohemia,
near Warwick, Nd, at II a. M,
Sunday, October 2. Old Bo-
hemia was in the midst of the
activities of the Revolutionary
War and many of her sons took
a prominent part in the strug-
gle for independence.
The Jesuit mission, founded
at the head of the Bohemia
River in 1904 and where the
chapel now stands, was the be-
ginning Of Georgetown Uni
versity in Washington, and it
was there that Charles Carroll
of Carrollton, signer of the
Declaration of independence
for Maryland, was educated
when a school was started in
1745, the archives of Loyola
College in Baltimore reveal.
John Carroll, afterwards
Archbishop of B alt ore,
founder of Georgetown College
and cousin of the signer, also
attended this hool. The
school, remnants of which still
remain, was the only one in
the Colony of Maryland con-
trolled by the Jesuits or any
other Catholic order and it was
patronized by the most promi-
nent families in the colony.
An ancient graveyard, sur
rounded by valuable lockwood,
still remains, containing the
bodies of Jesuits from many
European countries who died
while in service at the mission.
The manse, which now stands,
was built in 1926 and the
school was built near the site
OF the newer building, bricks
from the ruins of the school
going into the rectory. The
chapel, still in good preserva-
ton, was built in 1895 when
the Rev. Ambrose Mareschal,
third Archbishop of Balti-
more, was in residence at b.
hemia and it is said that in his
hours OF recreation he turned
the bannisters used in enclos-
ing the sanctuary in the
chapel.
Founded by the Rev. Thomas
Mansell, who obtained a tract
of land of 45S acres for the
mission in 1904, the church it.
self was destroyed by fire in
1912 while the Rev. Charles A.
Crowley was pastor of the par
ish. 1t was almost Immediate
ly rebuilt.
The present pastor is the
Rev. John H. Walsh, rector of
St. Joseph Church, Middle
town, Del, who is head of the
parish in which Old Bohemia
is included. 1t is the Oldest
Catholic church on the Del
marva Peninsula and one of
the Oldest in the country.
