Remarkable Progress In Ten Years

The Hon Dr. R. H. Kotewall presented' the certificates and prizes at the annual ceremony at the St. Louis Industrial Home yes terday. The occasion also marked the 10th anniversary of the as- sumption of direction by the Sale- slan Society. !|

Rev. Father John Guarona, Superior, received the guests, who Included Very Rev. Adolph J. Pas- chang, Right Rev. Henry Valtorta, Rev. Father R, Gallagher S. J., Mr. F. H. Loseby, Mr. The Ka-po qnd Inspector W. Mair,

As far back as 1925 he had heard of the work of the Salesian Fathers, for in that year he went with the then Secretary for Chinese Affairs, Mr. D. W. Tratman, and a few Chinese friends to Macao- to inspect and study the work of an Industrial school established In his report. the Superior sald: and managed by the Salesian So- Although St. Louis dates as far cietr.

FR. GUARONA'S WORK It was on the visit "mentioned that he first made the acquain- tacne of Father John Guarona. It was a great pleasure to him to see the Father at the head of the st. Louis School to-day.

"St. Louis," continued Dr. Kote- wall, has certainly made remark- able progress since the Silesian Society took over its management ten years ago. There were then 34 boys; there are now 450 day. scholars and 80 boarders. Besides giving the boys good cultural education up to the middle-school standard. the boys are taught a trade.

"The progress made has, in my view. been due to the hard work and devotion of Fr. Guarona and his loyal assistants. I congratu-

It soon became evident, however, that the surroundings would ham- per the further development of our Trade Schools. Accordingly. in 1933. the offer was accepted of the management of the Aberdeen Industral School, whither were re- mored "mechanics, carpenters, tal-late them on the remarkable re- lors and shoemakers; leaving at St. Louis only the printing and bookbinding departments with 直 few Interns.

PRESSING NEED

It is consoling to think that our numbers continue to rise year by year. We began as I have said, in 1927 with a roll of 50 boys. In 1937 we had a regular attendance of 520 which is something ke ar average rise of 50 per year,

Dr. Kotewall ended by exhorting. the boys to do their utmost in their studies so as to prove their gratitude to their teachers."
