Urged to Make One of Delegation In the last state assembly held in Greenwich the riame of Father Keefe was presented to the meeting for mem- bership on the stated legation to attend the St. Paul assembly which convened in August, 1914, but he declined the honor which the meeting sought to confer upon him. Within the past few months, or since the place for holding the next national assembly was decid- ed upon, friends of Father Keefe in all sections of the state have been urg- ing him to zive his consent to be con- sidered as one of the delegation which ill represent Connecticut in the next preme assembly to be convened in cattle and so insistent haxe been thei1 demands of late that he has given his consent and the foregoing resolution, which was adoptedby the local coun- cil, is the first public announcement of the fact that the name of Father Keefe will be presented at the next state -assembiy for membership upon the Connecticut delegation to the an- nnal assembly of the supreme coun- W Keefe is nrobably one best known advocates of Co- lumbianism in New England. His un- ceasing activity and splendid work for {he promotion of the ideals of the order stronger. Catholicism and Det- tcr citizenship, have been the means of making his name known throughout the eastern states, wherever a council is in existence, Remembered in Bridgeport li!s connection with the order dates : to the time when he was acting rurate in Bridgeport and he is pleasantly remembered by the knights of Bridgeport for his enthusiastic in- terest in the \\'ofly of th der in that as_curate » Tie took Seattle, Wash,, in been s pro of the local Became State Lecturer the sreatest apportumty for pro- the welfare of Columbianism came to Father Keefe a few years ago when he was appointed state lec- turer for the Connecticut district by John T. Reddin of Denver, supreme master of the fourth degree. The es- lection was a most fitting o: lecturer was known as an eloguent and forcelul speaker and a diligent stu- dent of Catholic history of the days when knighthood was in flower and was therefore splendidly equipped for his work on the lecture platform. ince his appointment he bas ited practically every section of Con- necticut, speaking in halls, churches and assembly rooms, as well as mak- ing several special trips to New York city and Rhofe Island. It is diffi- cuit to estimate the great good which has resulted to the order in Connec- ticut through the lectures of Father Keefo during the past two years. And he is_aontinuing the good work this year Dy delivering from two to four lectures every week during the scason, until the entire state will have been covered. Connecticut _knights will greatly broaden the influence of this state, the home of Columbianism, by sending to the supreme assembly a represeniative with the broad attain- ments of Father Keefe.

Miss McCurdy is a great traveler and the 78 pictures exhibited were painted in many different countries, under different skies and surroundings, but most of them gave evidence of 2 fondness for the Atlantic seacoast and the glorious colorings which are one of its beauties. Jamaica and the Bril ish ‘West Indies were reprezented in 18 views giving various features of life there. Another group of equal size portrayed characteristic scenes in Ber- muda. In Epgland, eight views were shown, half of them from the Corn- wall coast. Cape Bretor, Nova Sco- tta, was weil represented and gave many brilliant colorings, one especially reminding many of Capri color. The slx New York views aiso attracted at- tention. Two showed North Carolina Bcenes; one, New Jersey, and one was @ Norwich fleld. A picture of Nor- wich meadows is to remain as a gift from the artist.
