THE BULLETIN OF THE CATHOLIC LAYMEN’S ASSOCIATION OF GEORGIA AUGUST 30, 1924. Catholic Educational News MOUNT DE SALES ACADEMY SIX GEORGETOWN MEN AT THE HAGUE ACADEMY Majority of American Stu dents There Are From Washington Institution. Washington, D. C.—Georgetown University, historic Catholic institu tion here, is sending more students to attend the Academy of Interna tional Law at the famous Palace of Peace at The Hague this summer, than all other American educational institutions combined. Six of the ten students from America to take the course at the international acad emy are enrolled in the Georgetown School of Foreign Service. The six men, all of whom are war veterans, are: Donald C. Barber,. Elyria, Ohio; Warren Patterson, Pottsville, Pa.; M. J. Shea, Oak Park, HI.; Henry Gorman, Naugatuck, Conn.; Connie R. Herron. Ottawa,: Kas., and James T. Gilmartin, Dub lin, Ireland. They were picked be cause of their high standing in their classes. Inasmuch as all the lectures will be in French, they must know that language. Upon the completion of their studies, the six young men will re visit the battlefields of Europe, and then will make a tour of England, France, .Belgium, Italy and possibly Germany, returning to Washington to resume their studies before Oc tober 1. Dr, James Brown Scott, a member of the Georgetown Foreign Service School who is at tending the London meeting of the American Bar Association, will later join the group at The Hague. For four summers; Georgetown has sent small groups of students of this school to foreign countries, for studies that constitute a sort of post graduate work, for which credit is given. Venezuela, Spain and Franee and Poland have been visit ed by these groups. SACRED HEART ACADEMY con ducted by the Sisters of Mercy. Aca demic, Preparatory and Commercial Courses.

An exchange suggests these thoughts, very valuable to young people at this time: You should know that without a "high, school education: A standard college will not en roll you as a student. Your ambition to be a teacher can never be realized. You cannot study law in a law school of recognized standing Reputable schools of -medicine will bar you as a student. Class “A ’ dental schools will not allow you to take their courses. Schools of engineering will not enroll you in courses leading to a degree. You are barred from the competi tive entrance examinations for West Point Military Academy. The U. S. Naval Academy will not allow you to take Hs examinations. You cannot secure a position of •standing in the newspaper world. Even the ebryo radio engineering schools will not accept your regis tration fee. Nurses’ training schools will not consider your application for en trance. The possibility of ever becoming a private secretary is remote. Your hope to follow in the foot steps of the Master, in the role of priest or teacher, can never be real ized. Sisters Earn Degrees Marquette University Awards Them to Nine Nuns Milwaukee, Wis.—Marquette uni versity’s most successful summer session, which had a total enrollment of 602, has come to an end with eleven students, nine of them nuns, finishing the required work toward their degrees which will not be con ferred until the June commencement exercises. Marquette’s summer ses sion enrollment included thirteen Milwaukee public school principals, seven members of the clergy, 132 public school teachers and 149 nuns. Fourteen religious orders, sixteen states Ireland and Mexico, were rep resented. HOLY CROSS BROTHERS ARE AWARDED DEGEES Three Become Masters of Arts—Brothers Will Teach in Various Parts of County. Special to The Bulletin. Notre Dame, Indiana.—Seventeen Brothers of the Congregation of Holy Cross received their degrees at the Summer School Commence ment Exercises of the University of Notre Dame. Three of the group received their M. A. the others their B. A. This is the largest group of Brothers ever graduated from the University and undoubtedly it is the largest graduating class of Brothers in the history of the United States. Such an event is certain to bring great satisfaction to the Catholic educators of the nation as they realize the grave necessity of having a much larger number of Catholic high schools under the control of the Brothers. Bishops and pastors from every section of the country are making requests for Brothers to open new schools but in most cases these requests have to be refused on account of the scarcity of Brothers. The Brothers of Holy Cross are making rapid advance ment at the present time but in no way in proportion to the de mands. Early in July fifteen young men received the habit of the Brothers and nineteen Brothers who have completed their year in the Novitiate made their temporary pro fession and entered the House of Studies. There are now forty ap-' plications from young men who desire to enter the Brothers’ Pos tulate early in September and this number will increase during the month of August. Numerically speaking this is very encouraging but when consideration is given to the amount of work to be done, the large number of schools that arc on the waiting list the number is very insignificant. For those entering this year it will take at least six or eight years to become sufficiently trained to enter the field as expert teachers—they must remain until they receive their degrees. As for those receiving de grees this year they are simply taken into the rapidly growing schools now in charge of the Brothers. The Cathedral High School of Indianapolis, Indiana, has grown from ninety-eight to some six hundred within the past four years and requires a faculty of eighteen Brothers; Holy Cross Col lege of New Orleans, La., a board ing school, requires a much larger number and so on for the other schools. As the House of Studies of the Brothers is located at Notre Dame the student Brothers have the wonderful advantage of receiving their education and training at this great center of Catholic learning. The Brothers attend the regular classes with the student body com peting with them for honors. In this way there are thrown into actual contact with the type of American young men who will later come under their supervision and they become acquainted with the methods of professor* drawn from every part of the w^rld. During the summer they all return to Notre Dame and attend the Summer School thus keeping in touch with the latest educational methods.
