Self Elfacing People,

The Rev. Father A. Parisottl; I feel sure that I am voicing the opinion of everyone when I Bay that the report, which I have just had the privilege of reading to you, la one on which the Canos. sían Sisters are to be congratulat ed indeed..

Very naturally, however, a ro- port written by the Sisters them selves is hardly likely to do them. completo Justice. For they are quite the most self facing people in Hongkong to-day.

And so, I would like to point out, if I may be so bold, one or two things which are not in the re- port, things which ought to be told and which I trust their pupila will always remember.

I was fortunate enough, to bo asked to preach a retreat here re- cently and was very much impress ed with the real, solid and com- mon sende platy of the whole school. There is nothing showy or demonstrative. about it. It is real and it is deep. This after all is the main task which the ais- ters have undertaken and so far as one can humanly sco, they have certainly, succeeded.

Tribute to Sisters.

The girls in this school are get. ting an education, thoroughly up to date in method, but based on the highest moral and religious principles. An education which. omitted these would of course be utterly worthless. The. Nuns here, not merely teach: they prac- tice what they teach. And that is the beat lesson of all.
