John H. Reddin of Denver, supreme master of the fourth degree, Knights of Columbus, has reappointed Rev. W. A. Kecfe of Plainfield state lecturer for the district of Conaecticut. The letter anrouncing the appointment is &s fol- lows: - Rev. Williaan A. Keefe, Plainfield, onn.: Dear Father Keefe: Recognizing your splendid services during the past few years in the cause of education by means of lectures which you have delivered ir: the state of Connecticut under the auspices of fourth degree assemblies, I have the honor to ‘reappoint you as state lec- turer for the fourth degree in the state, of Connecticut for the coming year, 1917. With bes: wishes, bel(ev(- me, sin- cerely and fraternally yours, JOHN H..REDDIN, Supreme Master, Fourth Degree. This will be pleasing news to mem- bers of the order throughout Connecti- cut. as Father Keefe is probably one of the best known advocates of Colum- bianism in New England. His unceas- ing activity and spiendid work for the promotion of the ideals of*the order, namely, stronger Catnolicism and bet- ter citizenship, have been the meuns - of making his name known throughout the eastern states wherever a council is in existence. Knighted in Bridgeport. His connection with the order dates back to the time when he was acting as curate in Eridgeport, and he is pleasantly remembered by the knights of Bridgeport for his enthusiastic in- terest in the work of the order in that city Later, while serving as curate in St. Mary’'s parish, this city, he took an active part in the development and progress that has been so prominent in the recent history of the local coun- eil. Appointed State Lecturer. Liut the greatest opportunity for pro- moting the welfare of Columbianism came to Father Keefe a few years ago, when he was appointed state lecturer for the Connecticut district by John H. Reddin, supreme master of the fourth dezree. The selection was a most fit- ting one, as the lecturer was known as an eloquent and forceful speaker and a diligent student of Catholic history of the days when knighthood was in flow- er, and was therefore splendidly equip- ped for his work on tne lecture piat- form. His reappointment is a well de- served recognition of his valuable services in this capacity and it is grat- ifying to his many friends to know that he is to continue the good work. —_—— e COLLEGE PROFESSOR WlL‘I. 3 DELIVER LECTURE Is to Be Speaker in Citizens’ Course at New London High School. On Thursday evening the third in the citizens' course of free lectures in the auditorium of the Vocational High school at New London will be given by Prof. Louis A. Coerne, de- partment of music at Connecticut col- lege whose topic will be Wagner's Parsifal. Wagner's last and greatest music drama merits consideration from other than the operatic standpoint. _ Its foundation on the legends of the Holy Grail, coupled with Wagner’s injection of his own mystic philosophy, gives it a religious atmosphere. Its de- nouncement symbolizes the triumph of Christianity over Paganism. The mu- sical illustrations are given by the lec- turer at the piano, and by typical se- reproduced on the victrola. ual illustrations consist of a collection of lantern slides, giving both allegorical conceptions of characters and scenes ind views of actual stage presentations.
