Mission activities included two successful bundle drives, the obtaining of furniture needed at the Diocesan Orphanage, the stamp contest, and Lenten mite boxes. Copies of the Catholic Boy, Catholic Miss, The ,Qllffllfi Work, and new pamphlets were welcomed each month. The Sodalily-Um!-News com- pleted another fruitful year. A highlight of Vocation Week was an Ambition Dav Pro- gram, in which sodalists, dressed according to their chosen fields, discussed the possibilities of such a life work. Projects on the moral side were the classification of movies and the Mother's Day Temperance Pledge. Sodalists sent 325 books to the orphans in El Dorado. Again Cathedral's representative, this year, Robert Conroy, won in the Diocesan Apolo- getics Contest and took part in the State Con- test at Topeka. Robert Redmond placed in the Qzzc'c'1z'f Work controversy article contest, Will Parents Grow StricterP,' This year the sodality reception took place during the annual retreat on the feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The new sodalists were received by the Rev. B. I. Murray, S.I., retreat master. After a term of effort at truly being Mili- tant Catholics for Militant Americaf, a large delegation attended the State Leadership School, held in Topeka on May I, where they learned how to be admitted into the sodality elite corps, so that, with Christ the King com- manding and Mary the Queen guiding, they may carry on Linder the Cross and the Crown as f'Christ,s Commandos.

ILITANT CATHOLICS for Militant America! With this battle cry, sodalists Went Hall out in every project. Sodality en- thusiasm was due in great measure to the spirited leadership of this year's officers: Pre- fect, Iohn Kennedy, Vice-Prefect, Dorothy Shields, Secretary, Verres Evertsg Treasurer, Ted Lewis, Committee Heads: Edward Sei- Wert, Robert Stolz, Louise Goulart, Helen Ruth Marshall, Marie Louise Conroy, Robert Red- mond, Connie Busch, Floyd Schroeder, Alice Anderson, Fred Simon, Mary Byrne Mc- Donough, Louise Williamson, and Betty Ann MacLeod. Warlike activities in keeping With this year's slogan were Spiritual Warfaref' in which re- ligious activities on the home front were di- rected as attacks on the enemies of our country, and Captains for Christ, by which each sodalist was free to choose his rank in the army of the King of Kings, according to his gener- osity in faithfully carrying out the require- ments designated. Each Wednesday was ob- served as general Communion day for our former socialists now in service, and three times a living rosary was formed at Holy Hour for this intention. Religious articles and Cath- olic literature were sent to Camp Phillips. A seminar on the Four Freedoms clarified the sodalists' part in securing the peace after Win- ning the war. Pogo S '
