with the Southern Association of Schools. Reverend Daniel J.
O’Connor is director of the program.
The elementary classes are conducted in the St. Joseph High
School on Courtland Street. The Sisters of St. Joseph of Caron-
delet staff the school. ;131 students from all parts of the city are
enrolled in sixteen classes. Remedial courses in Reading, English
and Arithmetic are taught. These are standard courses for
those required to make up credits in summer school.
The other courses taught are Creative Writing for grades seven
and eight and Creative Thinking and Doing for grades four, five
and six.- Primarily Honor roll students are enrolled in these
courses.
By far the former courses are the most favored by Sister Grace
Marie, C.S.J. These students are in school not as a requirement
but for their self betterment. In an attempt to inspire children
to think creatively on their own, the course uses many available
sources such as ‘Two Bells” and Viewpoint Magazine in addition
to their standard text book.
Subject matter too is not confined to the normal or rational.
“We have discussed the idea, if cars have wings,” said Sister
Grace Marie. The atmosphere for this class is extremely re
laxed and receptive for learning.
All courses continue through July 30 as a six week session at a
cost of $25 dollars per subject.

NEW ORLEANS — "Father,
do you want the drinks now?” a
confused altar boy blurted out,
startling the congregation.
The boy couldn’t remember
whether it was time for the wat
er and wine, or time to move
the missal from the Epistle to
the Gospel side of the altar.
It happened back in 1920 at
Liberty Settlement, but Father
Odilo Alt, O.S.B., remembered
as if it happened just yesterday
during a reminiscing session
about his 45yearsasamission-
er in out-of-the-way communi
ties which dotted Louisiana’s
pine woods country.
FATHER Alt began riding the
mission trails 45 years ago on
horseback. He graduated to a
horse-and-buggy, then to a
‘‘flivver.”
REV. HAROLD L. COOPER, S.J.
cipate in the seminar are asked
The 73-year-old Benedictine
said it all started back in 1920
when he was talking with his
superior at St. Joseph's abbey
and seminary near Covington,
La. Father Alt speculated:
‘There ought to be some Cath
olics in Folsom.” His superior
replied: “Go and look.” And
Father Alt did.
In Folsom, 15 miles from
Covington, he didn’t find many
Catholics. He did find folks
whose grandparents were Cath
olics and who felt they also
were Catholics, but knew little
or nothing about the Faith and
its services.
FATHER Alt recalled the first
Mass he offered in Folsom.
His church was an old bam,
his congregation more curious
than devout. The barn owner
was most cooperative, Father
Alt recalled, furnishing every
thing needed for Mass. The
owner’s wife told the priest not
VERY REV. JOHN L. HEIN, S.J.
to read ahead of time the basic
V*T s-t f j.: fH' 3I301.J
to hesitate asking for anything
else he needed.
When Father Alt turned to the
congregation during the Mass
and intoned the first "Dominus
vobiscum,” the barn owner’s
wife interpreted the expression
and his gesture as a request.
‘‘She came forward and ask
ed, “What do you need now,
Father?’ I told her 1 needed
nothing, that everything was
fine. But she insisted, “Come
now, Father, don’t be bashful.
Whatever you need you’ll get,”’
Father Alt related,
EVERY TIME he intoned ‘Dom
inus vobiscum'during the Mass,
the woman stepped forward and
tried to be helpful, Father Alt
said.
The Benedictine missioneris
a native of Palatinate, Germany.
He came to the United States
in 1907, made his studies for
the priesthood at St. Joseph’s
abbey and was ordained on May
28, 1915.
The Benedictine’s ready wit,
homespun approach to philoso
phy and knowledge of the Bible
helped him establish the Church
in Folsom, Liberty Settlement,
Frankl inton and several other
mission stations in the back-
woods country,
FATHER Alt said the area
was predominantly Baptist
country. He said he encounter
ed some folks who objected to
the presence of a priest and
tried to frighten him off with
Ku Klux Klan tactics.

persons of any Christian church

THIS DATES of this seminar
will be Sundays, Tuesdays and
Thursdays of the last week of
July and the first two weeks of
