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.

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. texts for this seminar. They are The Spirit and Forms of Protestantism and The Decree on Ecumenism. Both of these texts may be purchased from the Notre Dame Book Shop.

THIS DATES of this seminar will be Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays of the last week of July and the first two weeks of August. All discussions will take place in the Cathedral Cen ter at 8:00 p.m. FATHER EAMON R. CAR- ROLL, O.Carm.. is the new president of the Catholic Theological Society of Amer ica.
