Death Takes Monk Before being named fifth bishop of the Diocese of Peoria, Bishop John Baptist Franz served in Spring- field and Dodge City, Kansas. Bishop Franz received his higher education from St. Francis College in Quincy, and Kendrick Seminary near St. Louis, Missouri, and was ordained by the late Archbishop John Glennon on June 13, 1920. Before being named the first Bish- op of Dodge City, Bishop Franz held various diocesan positions in Springfield. These positions in- cluded being director of the Priest’s Eucharistic League, Officialis” of the matrimonial court, and diocesan consultor and moderator of the diocesan conference. Since his return from Vatican Council II, Bishop Franz has en- couraged the clergy and faithful of his diocese to follow through on changes brought about by the Council Fathers. THE MOST REVEREND JOHN B. FRANZ After thirty-four years as a monk and twenty-eight as a priest, the Rev. Bede Russell, O.S.B., died on April 6, 1966.

Brothers And Sisters Essential Brother George cleans a press in preparation for a day's work in the print shop. This year. Brother Jerome was in charge of the print shop. It was his duty to see that everything ran smoothly. Sister Vidalina and Sister Guadalupe prepare meat loaf for the student’s evening meal. Although they rarely come into contact with them, the Brothers of St. Bede are im- portant in the daily lives of the students. Brothers make the physical apparatus of both the monastery and the school func- tion and they are often seen laboring on the farm, in the print shop, doing the mainte- nance work and working in the business office. Besides their manual labor, the Brothers say the Divine Office in English in the morning, afternoon and evening. They also have the opportunity of assisting the priests in Mass and other religious functions. St. Bede has its own “house- keepers —the Carmelite Sisters. A full day of work and prayer begins at 5:30 AM, when they rise to say prayers in the con- vent and to participate in the Mass in the convent chapel. Arriving from Mexico in 1951, the Sisters were given the duties of cooking meals for both the monastery and the school. Other duties of the Sisters are com- prised of doing monastery laun- dry and baking the bread, pies and cakes. 28
