 LAYMEN’S RETREATS—Continued. The retreats are open to all who wish to attend and a cordial invitation is extended to all Catholics and non-Catholics alike whether they be Alumni of the College or not. No fee is charged and no payments are asked. In answer to the many inquiries received under this head it might be well to mention here that each Rc-treatant offers what he wishes, and even those who are unable to make any offering are welcome. No other fund other than the free and voluntary offerings of the retreatants is available to defray the expense or to develop the work of the retreats. The retreats are not conducted with any view to profit and as a matter of fact the income has just about balanced the expense. One of the interesting and profitable features of the Retreat is the large and diversified collection of pamphlets—literally thousands in number—which are spread out for the inspection and use of Retreatants. Almost every subject bearing upon religious matters is treated under some one definite aspect. During the time of silence these booklets are eagerly read. The dates decided upon for this year’s retreats are: June 30, July 1, 2; July 15, 16, 17; July 28, 29. 30; August 11, 12, 13. Four retreats will be preached at St. Benedict’s during the time intervening between the dates of the St. Mary’s retreats. Those desiring to make a retreat at St. Mary’s should write the Rev. Father Rector signifying which retreat he will attend. FIRST LAYMEN’S RETREAT AT ST. MARY’S July 24th, 25th, 26th, 1909 Top Row—J. Noonan, J. A. Stahl, P. H. McHalc, V. DeDondcr, J. Shync, J. R.
