T HE growth o( the Order was phenomenal. After the institute,
of San Salvador Council at New Haven as the first subordinate
council, every city and town in Connecticut clamored for councils
Then came a day in 1885 when a new council was to be instituted a:
Stonington but the hall where the ceremonies were to be held caugh
fire ana there being no other hall available in the town, the institu
tion was transferred to Westerly, just across the state line in Rhode Island. Th;
incident served to excite the Catholic men of Westerly and soon there was a de
mand for a council of the new Order there, fn quick succession New York followed
Rhode Island, and Massachusetts followed New York with requests for councils
Up to 1891’ all members of the Order were insurance members but in that yea.
the Board of Government, on recommendation of the Supreme Knight, established
an Associate Division. Shortly thereafter, Maine, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Maryland became fields for the sowing of Columbianism. During this period o
rapid and sajfsfartrx-v --1, membership increased somethinc Id

but he lived long enough co v sec it grow from a small local society to ah organiza-
■ tion with national ramifications. By 1900, two years after his death, the Ordci
had reached every section of the United States except the far West and the extreme
South and had crossed the national boundary into Canada. Despite frequent
requests from European countries, the Order declined all invitations to introduce
itself overseas, confining its energies to careful expansion in North America.
By 1904, on,)' five states of the Union remained uninvaded and cities in these
states quickly applied for and received charters. The first transoceanic step was
taken when a council was instituted in Manila, Philippine Islands. The trium
phant progress of Columbianism then carried on in Mexico, Panama, Porto Rico
and Alaska. Even today, in those -astern states where the Order first started, ir
is still growing
Today with a membership of approximately 700,000 in 1,550 councils, the Order
has reached an eminence and power undreamed of by its founders.
The Order carries on through the Supreme Council and its state and subordinate
councils, many various activities, charitable, social, educational and religious.
The story of its War Relief Work is now a chapter in the history of the Great War.

that the agricultural fete be chang
ed from Rogation Sunday to another
date, a proposal which was looked
upon with suspicion. When he de
cided to erect industrial schools in
Port au Prince, he selected as build
ing sites the Palace de la Cathed-
rale and the Place de la St. Anne.
This was resented by the inhabitants
of Port au Prince, who, first of all
questioned the wisdom of erecting
the schools in the Capital City, and
opposed vehemently the confiscation
of two of the city’s three parks. The
fact that only a portion of the square
in front of the Cathedral W'as used
for a school building did not in any
way ameliorate their resentment.
CHRISTMAS PROGRAM AT
ST. MARY'S, AUGUSTA
The idea of technical training for
girls, no matter how advantageous
it has proved in other countries,
never has been “sold” to Haiti. The
Haitian, particularly the upper class
Haitian, has always followed the
Latin ideal of sheltering his women.
Mr. Colvin's lectures before the
assembled publis school teachers, in
addition to being most offensive to
Catholic hearers, were quite irrele
vant to the advocated purpose of in
creasing the teachers’ ■ efficiency.
The fifth of the series was entitled
“Martin Luther and the Reforma
tion.” Mr. Colvin’s _ address was
mimeographed and is believed to
have had a wide distribution.
In answer to the charges made by
student leaders that nearly a dozen
American instructors at the Damien
Agricultural School, of which he is
head, were drawing generous sala
ries and expense money while unable
to speak native French and being
otherwise unfitted to their work. Dr.
Freeman admitted that the French
of some of the professors referred to
was “pretty sketchy” but said that
those who received $4,000 and $3,000
a year were all experts and occupied
executive positions which did not
bring them in direct contact with the
classrooms.

secrated in the Cincinnati Cathedral.
He is the third native son of the city
to reach the Episcopacy, all being

j under whom Bishop Albers served as
! secretary and the other was Bishop
j Beckman, co-consccuator today.
Bishop Albers was born here March
| 18, 1891. He was ordained June 16,
i 1916. After a short service as an
| assistant priest, he became a chap
lain in the World War and was sub
sequently cited for bravery on the
field of battle. He has organized two

pastor. He has been Chancellor of
the Diocese during the administra
tion of Archbishop McNieholas. The

but had instructed him to say if the
question were asked, that Mr. Hur
