y . T' T T y i H Q The spiritual good eifected in the souls of the Third Order members is clearly illustrated in the ascetic countenance of Joseph Kustreba. Third The Third Order was founded by St. Francis in the XIII century. Today, its members number in the mil- lions. Our fraternity is only a small part of this great organization, but it has grown immensely in the past two years. The purpose of the Third Order is to guide its mem- bers on the road to perfection, and to instill in them the great spirit of St. Francis. The enjoyment these people found cannot be measured by any material standards, for it is an inner, spiritual joy. i Father Leonard gives some instruction to oflicers of Third Order: B. Bevan, J. Denecke, J. Grisanti, and M. J. Mendyk. 38

In our striving for enjoyment we have not forgotten those people of other lands who do not have the means of enjoy- ment which we possess. The Catholic Students Mission Crusade, under the guidance of Father Ignatius, has kept the students of Baker-Victory mindful of their spiritual obligations. The aim of the C. S. M. C. is to inculcate the missionary spirit into every Catholic student. Although there was no formal membership this year, the school as a whole has ' taken part in the work of the club. Medical supplies were sent to foreign missions, and money from the December bottle cap drive and from collections have been put to good use for the missions. Our chapter of the C. S. M. C. is a part of a world-wide organization which attempts to make the students realize the work of the Church in her missions. Members aid the mis- sions by a better appreciation of missionary problems, a daily offering of prayers, and material gifts. The familiar mission collection during the lunch hour is taken up by G. Riedel with L. Ward, R. Kresconko, R. Zabron, I. Sullivan and A. Jasper contributing to the cause. While Father Ignatius compares bottle caps with Mike Meegan, other mission crusaders busy themselves packag- ing medical supplies.
