COLLEGE VILLE.

Next Monday evening, November 6, James J. Walsh, M. D.. Ph. D„ Dean of the faculty of Medicine, Fordham University, New York, will deliver j lecture on The Church and Science la the college auditorium, at 7 o’clock. Dr. Walsh has a national reputation as a lecturer, and his medico-histori-cal works have attracted not a little attention abroad. This is the first of a series of lectures to be given at the college during this year, and it is certain that an instructive entertainment is in store for all who will come to hear Dr. Walsh.

Rev. Augustine Belfert, C.PP.B., President of St Joseph’s College, will be absent from the institution for some time, having been sent on an official mission to Santa Fe. New Mexico, and Los Angeles, California. The A. L. 8. held their meeting and rendered their regular program Sunday evening. A number of interesting recitations were spoken displaying marked dramatic talent among the Juniors. * On the feast day of All Saints Rev. B. M. Koester was the celebrant of the high mass, and he also preached a sermon appropriate to the occasion. Some of the rowdy lads persisted, in spite of strong and timely warning tp play some undesirable h&llowe’en pranks. The extra and severe tasks imposed upon them on Wednesday 'while the other students enjoyed the [free day will, no doubt, help them to see into the foolishness of their ways in following Borne old heathen customs to the detriment of their neighbors. The C. L. S. held their regular meeting last Sunday morning. The only business of note was the adoption of a play to be rendered on ThansgivIng evening, and also the assigning of the parts to the actors. The play is classical, and treats of the time of Louis XI of France. “In the Fool’s Bauble’’ is the happy title, and with the best talent participating it promises to be a high class theatrical production. Next Sunday afternon the S. J. C. Juniors will play the Lincoln Juniors, Chicago, a game of foot ball on the college grounds. An interesting an.l fast game is promised. The Athletic Association is making the immediate preparations for the opening of the basket ball season! The election of a general manager will be held next Sunday'. The prospects |for a strong quintette are very favorable.
