iiev. Gavan Monaghan, secretary if the St. Dunstarrs Alumni Asso- uation. has recently returned from gtwnding branch meetings of the Association in Qpebec, Montreal, New York and Boston. He reports that there is much enthusiasm over the prospect ol a. reunion such as is planned to commemorate the 75th anniversary this tail. At the meet- ing of the sub-branch of the Asso- elation in Boston on Jan. 8th last. a large number of former students of St. Dunstan's. now widely known in their adopted country, met, to- g-“thcr, some of them for the first tune since their graduation‘ twenty- flve or thirty years ago. So enthus- iastu: are the Boston members that arrangements are proposed to make up an excursion party which would mm direct to Charlottetown by steamer.

The anniversary programme has been arranged in outline as follows:

On August 7th, there will be Pontifical Mass, followed by luncheon for all at the College. In the after- noons trip to the North Shore or

national Oratorical contests, as well as the general public which follows them so keenly will be interested t0 loam cf the progress of the contests in Alberta.

l-Ion. J. E. Brow-nice. premier of that province, has this to say about the contests: _

“I desire to express my apprecia- tion of the success which attended the similar contest in the past year, and my best wishm for its achieve- ment in the future.

“A competition of this description has an extremely high educational value; it provides an incentive to young people t.o turn their nLlnds to a systematic investigation and con- sideration of matters of public and national interest. and a, stimulus to express the results of their applica- ticn and thought in a clear, attrac- tive and ccnviucing- manner. '

“It is vital to a democratic com- monwealth ihat its people should be able to think straight and speak clearly. The expressed thought of in- dividuals is like the ore which is submitted to the refining operation of public opinion: the manner of ex- pression constitutes the flux; the smelting agency is provided by sense of the people at large. Just as the output cf the crucible is the pure metal, free from dross and impuri-

quantity and quality upon the emc-

tency of the procem and the amount and nature of the material brought for refinement." '

l-lcn. Perren Baker, minister of

"I am glad to‘ know that. Alberta is again to take part in the Inter- national Oratorical Contest. All of the subjects selected are of national importance and their public discus- sion throughout the province must tend to bring a better understanding of the problems confronting the Ca- nadian people. You may be assur- ed of the hearty support of the de- partment. of education in this un- dertaking."

Among a large number of schools competing in Alberta are the follow- ing: Claresholm, Canmore, Okotoks, Benn, Drumheiler, strathmore, Red Deer, Carstairs, Lethbridge, Medicine Hot, Innislfll and High River.

In Alberta the contests are spon- sored by the Calgary Herald and the Edmonton Journal.

Other provinces. besides Alberta? and Ontario, taking part are‘. British l Columbia, Manitoba, Quebec, Nova. Scotla. and Prince Edward Island.

in Prince Edward Island, The Guardian sptmsors the contests, with t the co-operation of the Departmenm of Education and the Teachers Flcd- | oration.
