81. JEROME®S %Wé%lm l§ Berlin News ‘The Literary and Debating Society of St. Jerome‘s College brought to a close one of the most successful years in its history with a banquet _ held Monday night in the K. of C. Hall, in honor of the 1913 graduating class. ‘The afflair was a marked success _ in every respect and was an evidence of the good fellowship existing â€" among the students and of the unity binding the students and the authorities . of St. Jeromes. Rev. Father Zinger was _ greeted with "For He‘s a Jolly Good Felâ€" low" when he arose to address the class. The graduates, he said, _ had encountered but few of life‘s vicissiâ€" tudes in their careers at school and college, but they were going _ forth some into the world, others probâ€" ably for higher studies, and they were bound to mect with the plain, bold prose of life. lHe counselled the stuâ€" derts to go forth courageously _ and without fear. Men of stout _ hearts and a resolution to periorm their dutics well are what the world <cails for. To be broad minded, _ generous and sympathetic in their attitude, to be true Catholic gentlemen and good citizens was the essence of his advice., e also asked the graduates to be true to their Alma Mater. The boys who have left St. Jeromes have done well in life. The praiseworthy _ lives of the graduates reflected credit to St. Jerome‘s, but .on the other hand discredit: would be the fruit of acts of am opposite nature. Father Zinger wished (the ‘students _ every success. St. Jetome‘s would watch their iuâ€" Covers were laid for fortyâ€"five and the affair was graced by the presence of Rev. Father Zinger, President | of the College, Rev. Father V. Kloeâ€" pfer, Rev. Father Scafuro and _ Mr. Harry Zinger. The banquet hall was decorated with green andâ€" gold buntâ€" ing, the colors of the college, _ penâ€" mants and draped flags of the United States and Canada. The tables were appropriately decorated with flowers and green and gold ribbons, mnot . to mention the wealth of dainties proâ€" vided by the caterers, Messrs. Gettas and Gettas, to whose efforts the sucâ€" cess of the banquet was in a large measure due. After full justice had been done to the things that appealed to the inner man, Mr. John Rausch, president of society, acting as chairman, congraâ€" tulated the students upon the results of their planning. ‘The little function was intended as an opportunity _ of bidding farewell to the graduates of 1913. He referred to the interests the students shared in common, oï¬ the iriendships that had been formed and it was only fitting that the asâ€" sociations of years in Berlin should be thus concluded. In bidding farewell on behali of the Society he reminded the "grads" not to forget their felâ€" low students and their Alma Mater. The late Mr. Heller was born _ in Berlin in 1865, and was a son of the late Casper Heller. He had lived here all his life. When a young man he took up carving as a trade, which he worked at untii he went into the grocery business.
