Ilealizing the impossibility under the pre.-ent circumstances of -holding the sclieduled General Chapter of the Holy Gross Congregation, the Very lU-v. (J. Francais, C. S. C, of Notre Iame, superior general of the c.!iLri elation, issued a circular notifying the members about the postponement of the general reunion until r.O. Permission to postpone the r-union was granted by the holy see in iew- of the fact that the members of the congregation are scattered all over the world and the ditlicult transportation facilities would make it impossible for them to reach the reunion on time. In his circular the venerable superior asserts that the postponement of the general reunion is not without its advantages, since the leaders of the congregation are vigorously at work in the spheres assigned to them. Msgr. Legrand. C. C, bi.-hop of Dacca, is devoting himself with whole-souled ardor to the ettective organization of the Uenfal nds-ion. while in the . United States, i'anada and in Franee enter-pii-s have b en organized which are carried on for a useful purpose. A little dla before the reunion Fr. l'rancais states, will allow these w o r s to take definite shape and will afford the members of the con-gra-ation additional strength and liuht for their effective prosecution. In conclusion of the circular, Fr. Francais -ncoura the strict rule f poverty in ever thing during the p.-riod of the war.
