The report of Henry D. Buckley and John M. Lee, delegates to the State Council held in Greenwich on May 12, was presented. It was a_concise and complete account of the doings of the couvention and noted the fact that out of 70 councils in the state jurisdiction the Norwich council had the second largest increase in membership, hay- ing gained 52 members during the past year. The report concluded with the following commentary on the choice of the delegates for State De- puty. “In the selection of William J. Mul- ligan again to lead the state forces the convention paid a splendid tribute to a most worthy officer. During his terpr as State Deputy the order in Connecticut has made remarkable progress in every field of activity and the members of the order in this state are to be congratulated that a man of his high character and recognized ability is willing to again accept a position which carries with it such great responsibility and exacts So much in service as does the office ol Chief Executive of the State Council The following is_the complety report of "State Deputy Mulligan which the delegates of White Cross councii made a part of their report to the mem- bers REPORT. “To the Members of the Connecticut State Council, Knights of Colum- bus: Brothers—Another year of history ;l';k No. 13, Knights of Columbus, held K. of C State Deputy’s Report—Pythians Receiving New Members — Foresters Initiate — Royal Arcanum Had Grand Lodge Report—Neosha Whist—Eagles Coming striving still to make them better and the being active in such an organiza. tion as ours is bound to attract the higher type of young -Catholic men. “In unity there is strength” and to be united with others in an organization the purpose of which is to spread truth, the aim of which is to lead the light of justice so that our country will not be imperiled is not only a duty but an honor. Let me remind you of the wachful- ness and wisdom displayed by our Supreme officers in their efforts to have excluded from the mails the scurrilous sheets which, not only libel our Church and ‘our Order, but seek to tear down the very principles upon which our government was founded. How well they have undertaken the arduous task of combating an .evil which, if it gained headway would threaten the civilized world is known to us all. . The work of the two lec- turers sent out by our Order may not be fully appreciated by all members, but we should glory in the fact that while we are a Catholic Order we Jay claim to being the only fraternal or- ganization spending money in Lnis ‘way, 80 that the truth might be known and cur country with its free institu- tions and religious tolerance might be preserved. The accomplishments of the past year ever be remembered, but Pperha; e one achievement surpas- sing all’ others was the presenting of the $50,000 to the holic University at Washington, D. Connecticut did remarkably well in contributing to- ward this fund but it must remem- bered that the expense incident to the collecting of this money must be paid. Several councils in Connecticut have as yet failed to take favorable action on the matter and as the amount still due from Connecticut is $1,791.25, I earnestly request that such councils 4 Carlo, Helen O’'Nell, Loretta Thompson, Mary Tracy. % ECHOES FROM THE LODGE ROOMS|3:.is the lectures of port, Waterbury, N g‘: N . , New Stamford, Greenwich, vgn."nmw"'l‘-lrk-' n, L Hartford, Terryville, n, Rockvill Montville, Moosup, Provid New York, while, at the present time several ts are pending engagem ‘which will engage Father Keefe's time ‘well up to.July first.

TOBACCO Every one in Connecticut is cosni. : zant of the fact that our beloved Bishop Right Rev. John J. Nilan is building at West Hartford a home for little unfortunate children under four years of age. This charitable under- taking is truly characteristics of the Catholic people and it is with much pleasure that I congratulate the mem- bers of our Order on the speedy and magnificent way in which they ' re- sponded to the resolution passed at the last State Convention, authorizing the collecting of $1,000 for this home. After paying all expenses incident to the collecting of this money your com- mittee was able to turn into the State treasury $50.76. Your committee to- gether with our Worthy Chaplain, ‘Father John McGivney, called on Bishop Nilan at the Bpiscopal Resi- dence in Hartford, and presented him with the $1,000 on the 29th day of January, 1914. Bishop Nilan expressed his pleasure in recetving our. offering and assured the committee that he recognized the good work of the Knights of Columbus in all charitable and educational institutions under- taken by our church.
