This congress, which will be attend- j : r ed by priests and high church officials 11 frm all parts of the United States I j i a-nd Canada, marks the change which I 1 , ' tok place on Nov. 3 in the status of ' the Catholic church on the North i American continent, including: Canada, n that day the church ceased to have the rank of a missionary church and ' became "regular" that is, it is an in- , , dependent portion of the Catholic f church as a whole, and is no longer ; under the orders of the propaganda of I j the faith.

Golden Jubilee. ! ; ' Loral interest was aroused in the golden jubilee of the Sisters of Charity i i Leavenworth by the fact that the mother house during the celebration in ; recognition of what the Catholics of ft! Colorado have done for the order, , transmitted a check for JS20 to the I f county treasurer of Denver to cover I special taxes standing against the J , Mount St. Vincent's orphans' home in t 'it s North Denver. j It was glad news to the men and wots wo-ts f men who are kept busy providing food f i and fuel for the 300 little children who r f ( look to the good sisters at St. Vincent's I for the home that circumstances have s denied them. e In Denver elementary Institutions I . ' i are exempt from general taxation, but If? special taxes are always assessed. The f .--j sisters at present in charge of financial I . affairs at the orphanage did not un- I 1 1 derstand this, and it not being cus-1 I I i ternary to pcrve notice of speciaj taxa- tinn. there was nothing known of it i - I until the amount of accumulated as-I as-I t ; cessment had reached $S20.
