The sentiment of the following clipping in endorsed by the local Club Federation:

A. Picture Postal. Wellesley, Mass., has an active set of citizens working for town improvement all the while. They are anxious to keep the streets free from litter, and provide receptacles for waste paper, etc., at various street corners. But sometimes strangers spoil all this effort. For example, one day last year, a woman passenger on a car passing through Wellesley Hills Square threw from the car a picture postal addressed to her, which she had read, and then torn into small pieces. A citizen of Wellesley, pledged to the town improvement idea, saw the scattered bits of paper, and picked them up: Fitting them together revealed the name and address of the careless traveler, and the following letter went to her that day, duly signed: Dear Madam—The Inclosed bits of torn paper were picked up by the writer in the streets of Wellesley, where they had been thrown from a passing car, doubtless by you. I believe It was the result of thought lessness, and that had you-known how much time and energy is given in the effort to keep our streets clean and attractive, you would certainly have co-operated with us in this work to the extent of refraining from throwing the litter from the car. Trusting that this reminder of you offense, this time, may help you to help us and other communities to keep clean, I am, Very sincerely yours,

The letter did its work, and its courtesy and civic thoughtfulness were so much appreciated that it was given to the Wellesley ’Townsman" and published. It has since been republished in the "American City,” as a sample of the details that good citizens ought to take up in earnest—and usually do not There is a growing body of people in America today—a body to which all intelligent young men and women ought to belong, by the

way—who are thoughtful about the Interests of their communities and of any other communities where they may find themselves. The real Fourth of July spirit is found as truly in looking after the cleanliness and sanitation of the town streets as by marching in a procession and waving a flag. This story of a postal card holds a sizable example, and the oftener it reprinted, the better.

COLLEGEVILLE.

Barring unforeseen delays and unavoidable accidents the : Improvements at the gymnasium will soon be in progress. The detailed plans have not yet been approved of but they will shortly be ready for the. contractors. The total expenditure for the addition and the changes will reach upward of $40,000. The first work to be done will be the raising of the entire building twelve feet. The wall will be broken loose from the water table just below the main hall floor and the entire building elevated to the required height by means of jacks. Large windows will take the place of the present small basement windows. This will make the basement practically a first story with a' ceiling height of 18% feet. The old basement floor will also be filled in, thus raising it about two feet and bringing it above the water line and obviating the danger of floods that were not uncommon in the gymnasium basement. The basement will be arranged into an up-to-date club rooms, pool rooms, smoking room, and the large center room will be fitted out with appliances for athletics and acrobatic purposes. It will be a splendid hall for the installation of a batting cage, thus aiding materially in the getting out of a strong batting ball team early in the season. The entire improvement will assist very much in advancing thfe college, teams of all sorts into faster company.

To the west of the gymnasium the addition will be added for science purposes. It will be 101 by 50 feet. In the basement of the addition, which will have a 20 foot celling, will be the necessary shower and tub baths for regular use and for the athletic teams. The large swimming pool, 67 by 27 feet and sloping from 3 to 9 feet deep, wlil also be In this part. The wall of the pool will be of vitrified brick, which is necessitated by the condition of the hard water from the local wells. Steam heating will be used to warm the water. On the second floor of the addition will be the biological and botanical laboratory, and also a large room for band and orchestra rehearsals. The laboratory will accommodate 40 students. The third floor will be arranged for a chemical laboratory with accommodations for 80 pupils. On this floor will also be the large science lecture room. The entire building will be fitted out with the latest modern improve ments and the scientific apparatuses will be the best on the market. Rev. I. A. Wagner will supervise the installation.

Rev. I. A. Wagner, C.PP.S., A. 8., Ph. D., is a graduate of the Catholic University of Washington, D. C., taking a general science course and chemistry as a specialty. At the present time he is engaged in teaching chemistry at ithe summer school of the Catholic University. Rev. Othmar Knapke, C.PP.S., A. 8., and Henry Froning, A. M., are now engaged at the same university. The following letter was kindly sent us by our commencement orator, and it speaks for itself. The college can be proud of the fact that the man whom it chose as speaker for the occasion received such high praise from the second man in the land and country: The Vice President’s Chamber. Washington, June 24, 1913. My Dear Henry: I have taken great pleasure in reading your baccalaureate sermon at St. Joseph’s College. I am glad to know that your mind and mine run along the same lines with reference to the real needs' of the people of this country. Sincerely yours, Signed THOB. R. MARSHALL. Hon.
