But the difficulties that are wont to attend upon all new enterprises beset the efforts of the new episcopate and the Cathedral per- force became the dream structure of the future. Bishop Pinten, however, was gen- erously instrumental in starting the erection of the magnificent Cathedral of Christ the King, which has been so aptly described by a visitor as The white gem by the blue sea. lt was through the benevolence of Bishop Pinten, too, that the Sisters were presented with the beautiful home which they now oc- cupy. Before the coming of Bishop Pinten the nuns had been living in four cottages near the school, These were quite inadequate and when the large house on Belknap was given them the Sisters were grateful for the comfort and convenience afforded them. A ln the summer of 1926, the ra fers, sacrifices, and hopes of the faithful bore fruit, and under the direction of the Right Reverend joseph G, Pinten, a church worthy of the presence of the Most High God. began to take shape to be completed and opened by his successor, The Right Reverend Theodore H. Reverman, in 1927. lt is fitting indeed that this publication, written in the shadows of the cross of our Cathedral, should perpetuate the Silver Anniversary of the Diocese of Superior. -so- 'T f 4. xg Q Y l L 5

The officers who .have been chosen this year will not have the privilege to pioneer but they will have as an aim to achieve. Walter McNally has always shown himself a capable leader. We are pleased to have as Vice President a member of one of the oldest classes of Cathedral, Mr. Ray Bissonnette. He has taken an active interest in the society since its consolidation as he also did in the old Sacred Heart Alumni Association. Wilbert Phillips and Edward Kelly need no introduction to Cathedral supporters for they have always been among the most active. xl ix, Y l. l RAY BISSONETTE Wll.l-HERT PHll.l,lPS EDWARD KEl,l.Y i Vice President Secretary Treasurer Xl ly?
