Rehrifzg Ojicirzzes at Ohio Commezfzorrzzz'-ve Celeoratiofz at Hogf Rosary Cazfoeolrrzf At a meeting of the Ohio Catholic Welfare Con- ference held in Cincinnati, the Bishops of the Prov- ince decided to open the Ohio Sesquicentennial cele- bration with a solemn Pontifical Mass in their Ca- thedrals. Most Reverend Bishop George I. Behring offered Solemn Pontifical Mass at Holy Rosary Cathedral, Toledo, Saturday. February 28. Members of the diocesan clergy and of the vari- ous religious orders joyfully accepted Bishop Behr- ing's invitation to participate in this sacred function, to thank God for a century and a half of blessings upon our home-state. Priest's choir sang the Ordinary of the Mass. Sis- ters of various orders from schools and other insti- tutions of the diocese Were invited to join the Con- gregational choir, in singing the Propers of the Mass. A large delegation of Sisters from St. Paul's were privileged to attend this Votive Mass. Rev. Ignatius Kelly delivered an eloquent sermon on the text from St. lVlatheW's gospel, So let your light shine before men that they may see your good Works and glorify your father who is in Heaven. This was the Spirit which inspired religious lead- ers and their loyal followers from whom we have received the rich heritage of Christian culture. The challenge to living generations is to recognize the same s piriiual values based upon Christian ideals- an abiding trust in the workings of Divine Provi- dence and a generous spirit of sacrifice and charity. Bishop Rehring expressed joy and satisfaction for the whole-hearted response of clergy and religious in making this solemn function so inspiring, and commended the directors and choirs for their note- worthy achievements. As a climax to the celebration, Bishop Rehring solemnly conferred the Papal Blessing upon all present. All those who were privileged to assist at this commemorative celebration are convinced that they not only shared in its blessings but secured many for the thousands of souls entrusted to them in parish churches and schools throughout the diocese.

School Seventy-five years ago. three Sisters of Notre Dame came to Norwalk to assume the responsibility of sharing in the educational work of the recently organized St. Paul parish. A two-story brick building, to serve as a combination Church and school, had been erected at the corner of Wooster and Monroe Streets. A two-story frame house situated at the Monroe Street end of the newly acquired property was to serve as the Sisters' residence. The completion of our beautiful Renaissance Church, in 1893, made it pos- sible to provide needed classrooms in the section of the combination building, which had served as a Church. In 1906 a two-year commercial course was introduced. Since it was evident that an extensive building program was necessary, as soon as a method for providing funds could be devised, lots adjoining the Church on Main Street, were purchased. Conscious of the need for better facilities and grateful for the education and training they had received at St. Paul school, the Fisher brothers of Detroit. loyal sons of the parish, generously offered to erect a new school. This beau- tiful modern structure was dedicated December 11, 1921. The faculty lost no time in organizing a high school, which merited the Charter of Affiliation as a first class high school in 1923, which it has retained ever since. Impressed by this outstanding progress and by the need for a more ex- tensive building program, our generous benefactors, in 1929, erected a par- sonage, a convent, and a combination gymnasium and auditorium. Pastors, faculty, and parishioners have given evidence of their appreciation and gratitude to the donors, by careful maintenance and efficiency in utilizing all available facilities. The steady increase in enrollment, however, has created problems in pro- viding needed class rooms and other necessary equipment. After a thorough study of ways and means to provide proper facilities for present and future needs, Father Weger and the councilmen concluded that the construction of an eight-room school would be most practical and efficient. Plans for this addition have been completed. This building will be con- structed between the Gym and Sisters' residence, thus making it possible to have a central heating system and other facilities. - According to present plans this project is to be completed for the opening of the fall session in 1954. May the bequest of Mrs. Augusta Grimmer, of twenty-three thousand. eight hundred dollars, serve as an inspiration to other parishioners to be generous in the drive for funds, that the necessary amount may be realized without the parish having to assume the burden of debt. Among the 883 students who have been graduated, or have attended St. Paul school7O have dedicated their lives to the service of Christ. as priests or religious. 4 Refu. Hz'Za7y lyeger, Pastor, Extends Fe!z'cz'tcztz'0m St. Paul's has reason to be justly proud of its record of religious growth and progress during the seventy-five year tenure of the Notre Dame Community of nuns in staffing its school. The long list of priest-sons of the parish and members of religious orders who received their early training in St. Paul Church, together with the large number of Alumni loyal to the Church in their secular occupations, and of proven citizenship, is a tribute to the good nuns whose untiring zeal and self-sacrificing labors are known, in full, to God alone. I feel that I am expressing the sentiments of the parish as a whole in giv- ing thanks to God for the many blessings that have come to the Church in Norwalk, and indirectly to the entire community of Norwalk, through the presence of the Notre Dame Sisters these many years. May God continue to prosper them in their noble work of forming the minds and hearts of the chil- dren of this parish for all time to come.

In learning by doing, we soon discover that ac- curacy and dependability are stern task-masters, calling for initiative, perseverance, ingenuity, and tact at every turn. But the valuable experience we have gained more than compensates for time and energy expended. Q A Cast of Cheaper by the Dozen . lt..:,..-V...

Cheaper by the Dozen, Senior Class Play, proved to be a popular choice, in attracting a large and appreciative audience for the two performances, Sunday and Monday evenings, April 26 and 27. With Rev. Leo Lehmkuhl as director, the cast real- ized that their efforts and dramatic ability would be put to the test to merit high rating. This three-act comedy is a dramatization by Perry Clark, of the delightful founded-on-fact story by Frank and Ernestine Gilbreth. Not only does it provide wholesome humor by a close-up view of a large family in action, but also reveals the building of character carried on con- tinuously by the give-and-take method of the family group. Since the parents have taught these children, by Word and act, that The happiest time in the World is when you're all together, a spirit of good fellow- ship and fair play dominated every situation. This comedy centers around Dad, a prominent ef- ficiency expert, convinced that what works in the factory will work in the home, keeps the family of lively youngsters on their toes. Organization and efficiency become the watch- words for all activities from the simplest household task to educational methods and family councils. Mother Gilbreth assumes, to the letter, the role of helpmate. She makes good use of her psychology in not only tolerating Dad's eccentricities but in sanc- tioning thern with whole-hearted approval, yet finds Ways and means to convince her teen-age daugh- ters that she understands their problems and will do all in her power to aid them in finding solutions. Scenery, costumes, and settings made the char- acterization of the Gilbreths convincing. Emphasis on the conflict between two generations regarding ideas and principles created wholesome humor and revealed how easily tensions can be re- lieved by sympathetic understanding. Carol Ott, Kathleen Frey, Ierry Ackerman, Dave Pflieger, and Tom Berry entertained the audience with appropriate musical selections between acts. CAST Mr. Gilbreth, Dad ................
