They decided to travel comfortably champion; William J. Ross, twice

Mike the lower. Both seemed to have son, and the redoubtable C. W. Lewis,
trouble of some kind, and were "
swearing softly to themselves. At
last Mike called up to Pat: “How are
ye getting along, Pat-” To which
Pat made reply: “Not at all. How’s a
fellow going to get his pants off when
he is sitting on them? How are ye

I can’t figure out how I am going to

secured and are on display at the col-

Satruday afternoon between 12 and
1 o’clock, Robert Stewart, Acreage
Home, had two visitors who purport-
ed to be government representatives
and declared that they wanted to
talk to him about his pension which
he draws from the government as a
veteran of the Spanish American
War. The men made a lohg and im-
pressive speech the keynote of which
was that all the banks were going to
close again and he would be wise to
get all of his money out of the banks
before that terrible day came to pass.
Stewart drew 3150, which the “gov-
ernment representatives” kindly con-
sented to keep for him. They are
still “keeping” it, and Stewart is $150
poorer. ,
Police are searching for the two.
The chief is described as 6 feet tall,
30 years of age, and light brown skin.
He has double teeth in the lower jaw.
He gave his name as C. A. Allen. The

age, 5 fleet, 8 inches tall and weighed
about 160 pounds.

hot summer day, groaning under the

“But surely you do not tie up your
milk with a rope?” “Brother,” said
the sheik, “when you do not want to
do a thing, one reason is as good as
another.”

On March 30, a beautiful surprise
party was given at the home of Mrs.
Eva C. Bonner, 1809 Lockwood Drive,
in honor of Rev. E. J. Thomas of the
Grace Methodist Church. Twenty,
five guests were waiting in a darken-
ed room for his arrival, when he was
escorted by Mrs. Mollie Scruggs and
met at the door by the hostess, Mrs.

Ito the darkness. Before any words
could be passed between them, echoes
of thrilling voices and ringing bells
were heard shouting “Happy birthday
to you." Rev. Thomas was surprised
beyond words of expression. Lights

On March 26, at 7:30 p. m.. His Ex-
cellency Christopher E. Byrne, D. D.,
of Galveston, administered the sacra-
ment of confirmation to about four
hundred prepared boys and girls in
the Blessed Sacrament Church, Beau-

His excellency spoke highly of the
work being carried on in the parish
and expressed his joy at finding such
a great crowd present. The entire
church was occupied from the sanct-

Council, Boy Scouts of America, New

Negro boy whether he be in the pews

as is first mentioned in the Acts of
the Apostles 8:14-17.
With out-stretched arms and hands
the bishop prayer over all who were
to be confirmed. These faithful had
already been made children of God by
baptism. They were now to receive
the Holy Ghost by the prayer and im-
position of the hands of the bishop,
the successor of the Apostles, that
they be strong and perfect Christians
and valiant soldiers of Jesus Christ.

Not only had all been to confession
and Holy Communion and free from

the Mass all renewed their baptismal

“And some fell
upon good ground”
The Sower, in the parable, cast his seed
to the winds of heaven.
That which landed among the stones, the
thorns and in the barren places, perished.
Only the seeds which reached the good
ground had a chance to grow.
The modern advertiser does not strew his

school but lived at Hotel Dien until
the time when the construction of
their Convent was completed. The
Pastor, the Reverend Alexis A La
Plante, S. S. J., was aided in the or-
ganization of the schools by Mother
Mary Visitation together with Sisters
Mary Veronica, Clement Marie and
Victoria Bernadine, who were asso-
ciated with her.
As time went on other sisters of
the Blessed Sacrament were enlisted
as co-workers including Sister Jane
Francis, Sisters Loretta and the be-
loved deceased Sister Dominic who
rests in the Sisters’ Lot in the Mag-
nolia cemetery.
During this time the lay teachers
associated with the school staff were
the Misses Myrtle Jones, Alma Jo-
seph, Florence David, Mildred Nor-
man, Louise Faust, Laura Wright,
and Sadie Patilla.
In 1923 a new Superioress assumed
charge as is customary after a ear-
tain number of years in office. It
was no other than Mother Regina to-
gether with Sisters X. Priaca, Annette
M. de Chantal. Later in 1926 M. de
Chantal assumed charge assisted by
Sisters M. Immaculate Angelina and
later Sisters Dorothea and Marten.
During the regime of Mother De
Chantal our Mother of Mercy School
was opened at Pear Orchard. The lay
teachers who have conducted this
school during the past years include
the Misses Maybella Ruffin, now
teaching at the Blessed Sacrament
School, Miss Bijou, Alice Austin,
Mayola Broussard, and the present
teacher. Miss Hazel Ruben.
At present Mother Miriam, assit-
ed by Sisters Immaculate, Imelda

two ley teachers Miss Leona Brus-
sard and Miss Mabella Ruffin staff

Miss Hazel Ruben takes charge of
Our Mother of Mercy School, Pear
Orchard, Beaumont, Texas.
The purpose of a Catholic School
is to inculcate the religious education
that should have been started in the
home as well as to develop and draw
out the minds of the little ones to be
able to read, write and figure. The
greatest as well as the highest science
in the world is the knowledge of the
Creator of the universe. A science
which answers the fundamental ques-
tions of “Whence did man come?"
“What is he here for?” “Where is he
bound?” How is he to arrive at his
destination?” “What is the end of
man?” The true religion of God an-
swers these questions without a mis-
take for it is the true supernatural
religion, the one revealed by God
Himself for the guidance of His crea-
tures. This knowledge summarized
is scientific because logical and or-
derly. It is a knowledge that has
been delivered to man in a manner
in which he is able to apprehend it.
A knowledge within the grasp of a
child of seven as well as for the adult
of matured years. Its foundation ia
a special gift of God’s faith but a
gift that needs spiritual nourishment
aided by all the faculties of man and
especially his will. Hence a Catholic
school strives to educate the mind but
most especially of all the Will—that
seeing and knowing may be followed
by vigorous action of the will to de-
sire and will the best not for a pe-
cuniary gain but for the gain of
man’s better spiritual nature and the
promised reward for those who do the
will of God and keep His command-
ments.

the management, in commenting on
