T hese three debaters are veterans of the long Eastern trip whi ch the Viator debaters took last year, and, since the qu estion debate d aga inst Oregon was pra cti call y the same as that whic h was debated on last yea r 's tTip, the Viator debaters had lit tle difficulty in presenting an a lmost impregnable argument. .Oregon University was rep resented by Mr. Benoit McCroskey , Mr. W.

Return From Rome
The most arden t wis hes a nd t he prayerful expectations of the facult y and student body of St. Viator College were fulfi lled most pleasa.ntly when Cardinal Mundel ein officially announ ced that th e Rt . Rev. Msgr. B. J . Sheil, '07 , h ~d been appoint ed au xiliary Bi shop of Chicago b y P ope P ius XI. Monsig-nor Sheil will succeed th e Rt. Rev. Edwa.rd F. Hoban w ho was r ece ntl y named Ord lnary of the ~o c k ford Diocese. Cardina l Mund elein anno unced t he appo in tment immediatel y after his return fr om Rome last Satur day. The announcement was the occasion of mu ch joy through ou t th e Chicago di oc~se where Mons ignor Sh'eil is held in h ig h es teem and where he has la bored lon g a nd faithf ull y in important posi tjons. The selection of MonRignor Sheil a s Auxiliary Bishop is the merited cul mination of w holehea rted endeavor a nd wi lli ng sacrifi ce in th e vineya r d of the Master. Consecr ation May First Monsignor S heil wi ll be co nsecrated by Cardinal Mundelein in th e Holy Name Cathedral on May 1st. T he Cardinal will preside at t he ins tallati on of Bis hop Hoban a fortnig ht later, May 15th. Monsignor S heil is one of thre~ . phi c~ go priests to be elevated to t he prelatesh ip wit hin a few years, bei ng proceeded by Bish 9p H oban in 1921 and Bi shop Dunn e, of Peoria, in 1910. Mon ~ ignor S heil will be ·t he. T it ula r Bishop of Pege. W hen Mon sig nor S heil acompanied Cardi nal Mundelein t o Rome smne weeks a go, it was g enerall y believed througho ut th e Arch diocese that he
wou ld r eturn with the mitre. This pop ular a nd pers istent r umor has been confirm ed, and St. Viator is proud that one more of h er alumni w.ill be consecra ted a bish op. The date of the consecrat ion ha.s been set for May fi rst. The Bishop-elect was born in the ci t y of Chicago fort y one years ago. H e attended St. Columbki lk o school whic h w as taught a t that time by the Holy Cross Brothers. The graduates of lus cl a ~ s who continued their st udies, fe ll into three group s. Some w ent to Notre Da me, some to St. Ig nat ius, and some to St. \ iator College. 11 Benny'' Sheil was numbered in th e last group. On arriving at St. Viator College, th e future Bis hop easily won hi s w ay in to th e hea rts of both fac ulty and s tu dents. H e m.ade rapid progress in his st udies and succeeded in carr ying off s everal medals for hi s proficiency in classwork. H e di sp r oved th e ra ther popu}a.r notion that a good stu dent cannot be a good a thl ete, or vice versa . Monsignor Sheil was an athlete of marked a bility and his record on the field of sports is pointed to with pride by every Viator man. Many a time he was responsible fo r tht laurel of victory being pl aced on th e brow of Via tor. His philooophical and theological s tudies we r~ likewise contin ued at S t . Viator's a nd he was ordained from t he Coll ege in 1910. His first appo intment was to S t . Mel's parish. F~th er Sheil was possessed of remarkabl0 zea l and he did DOt spare himself in workin!J for th e spirit ual good o! this 7

1928 Voyageur Will Be E ntered In The Stale Press Association Contes t The fact that t he Voyageur Staff is se r iously considerin g the proposition of entering the Annual in one or more year-book contests ought to be of interest to every Academy student. T here are two reaso ns w hy this matter should concern the high school pupils : th e firs t, that, if th e 1928 Voyageur s hould be fort unate to carry oft' honors ln such a contest, the victory woul d earn State-wide r ecognition fo r St. Via tor Academy; and the second, that, even in the event that the Annual merited no awards in the competition , the zest with wh ich the staff wou ld wo rk that it might win a place w~:m l d be producti ve of an unusuall y good annual. The contest in which the book ap pea rs cer tain to be entered is that one which is sponsored by the Illinois State High School Press Associa tion . T hi s con test is not com petiti ve, but each school which is ad judged to ha ve published a book of unus ual merit, in view of the opportunities presen ted t hem for so publishing, is awarded a dis tinguis hed rating diploma. It is entirely probabl e th at thi s w ill not be the only competition in which th e book will be placed, but, since no other ones ha ve been fina ll y decided upon, it is a bit too ea,rly to publish an ythin g definite a bout the specification ~ and awards of an y particular one. The staff members h ave of la te been q uestioned quite frequently abo ut th e make up of this ye a r 's Voyage ur. Since th e dummy is not yet f ull y completed, th e follo,Ying general outline is the best information th ey can supply on the subject. According to present plans, the th eme of boo k wi ll be Greek. This will not be very strongly stressed, howeve r , for the simple reason that the staff does not wish to spoil th e book by too vigo rou s ly appl y ing their limi ted knowledge of such a difficult subject . The cover is to be of_ a medium green sha de w it h an embossed title paneL Some sort of decorative emblem, possibly a small fi gure of St. Vi ator wi ll be placed in the l ower rig ht-hand corner of the cover, but it will not be bronzed. T o match the colo_r of the cover, a g reen border will probably be used in the body of the book. The sh ade of paper in the book pro per wi ll be ivor y instead of white. A very beautiful ope ning section has been planned but th e detai ls of th e plan are not yet f ull y ready for p u blicati on. H owever, one thing tha t has been definitely decided upon is that t he ca m p us pictures wi ll cover eight pages in s tead of th e usua.J four. T he Sta ff ha s already begun to make cop y for th e book. The 1n em ber s are attempting to ha.ve all t heir copy in a few weeks bef ore t he end of the school yea r in order th at th e book may be in the mails by Jul y 1st-two weeks ah ead of the usual date of pub· licat ion. The engr aver s w ill begin wo r k on the cuts for the Voyageur a s soo n as the photographers snap the rema.i nder of th e group pictures.

Easter Easter, the feast of feasts, the anniversary of Chri st's most conclusive proof of Hi s Di vinity, is soon to be greeted by a world rebo rn , fresh and pure after winter 's long siege. How eloquently do s na t ure prepar the world fo r this great feast ! How like to Holy Moth r Church is nature in t hi s dawning springtime! With lash and co urg of winter winds, with heavy snow and cheerless a ir, t he ea rth is purified to rise again and greet the risen Christ. Th e Church co unsellin g pena nce and mortificat ion t hroughou t Lent prepare us fo r t he greatest of all f easts. Long ha s the first ~w et-to ned bell on Easter morn echoed the death -knell to the grip of winter's co ld hand s. Long has t ha t bell called fo rth , fro m every hea rth, my riad s of worshippers to joyously procla im "Resurrex it sicut di x it." Long has t hat early morning bell ca ll ed forth into t h warm a nd bles eel s un s hine t he worldlin g, t he ma terialist, and, on the ot her s ide of the s tr eet, t he Christian, the fait hf ul in Ch rist, th e man to whom the sto ry of the Resurrection is one of never end in g d light, the man to whom Easter brings the fu lln ess of its blessings. The wo rd, Easter , is of paga n or igin . It origin all y indicated t he pagan goddes of spring and the pagan spring festival. Unfortunate ly the term still ha a pagan s ignificance to very many p ople toda~·· The worldling sees no more in t he feast than an oppo rt uni ty to 1Jarade his new clo t hing. He see on ly t he external side of t he Easter feast . He is glad beca use t he sun shines, because t he birds arol their sheer rapture in being alive, because all nature smil es back at the s un 's warm glances. Wi thout an alyzir• g h imself, he finds that he is happy simply because his surroundings lHI\'e taken on a joyous aspect. He conventionally wishes his friends a happy Easter. blissfully unaware of the true meaning of the sa lutalion. He is satisfied to join the fashionable on the bou le,·ard promenade, display hi s affabil ity, and give his wife, to whom Easter means little more than the grand opening of the spring style show, an opportunity to flaunt her new ensemble, and scrutiniz h r neighbor's dress. Yes! l\Iother mu st have her new ensembl . And Little l\Iary must be arrayed in sh immering silk. E,·en the to~· poodle must ha\'e a new red ribbon and leash. I or is dad exe mpt from the delu ion. His trouser legs must be an inch wid r, thei1· shade n bit lighter. their li11es a bit sha rper. The old hat is either discarded or emblazoned with a new ribbon; the neck\ ie is a bright r red. of course. Added to all this is a gourmand's dinn >r, and thut. to the modern Babbit is Easter. How different an aspect does Easter bear to one who has cooperl\ted with the Church throughout Lent' How great its si gnirlcunce to ne wh realizes its true purport! The Church directs him through a season of penance and mortification: he sorrowfully follows hrist from th court of Herod o that of Pilate. and up the 1 ng steep hill to 'ah·ary. He kneels. disheartened, for th!'ee long hours at the foot of the Cross: he hears the ·consummatus est'. He 1 turns on Holy vatul'day to \'enerate the -cross; to pay,
a, i were, hi· last respec s. but behold ther is already a trans formation! The purple i· remo,·ed from the Church. and seemingly here are preparations for a great feast. Air ady he feast i~ da ..-ning and hese pr para ions do but humbly meet its need;:. n Easter morn, with faith rekindled, new hope inspired. and ru t renewed, he rises to greet the rLen hris . King and paup r alike unite to well the glorious Alleluia . Neither dress nor calltc are que tioned. What matter dress or tation. man or world now that Christ is ri en? What gourmand feast will compare with the Communion feast on Easter morn? What atisfaction compare with the peace and joy that fills each Christian heart? Easter should be the most joyous of all fea ts to e\·ery Christian. On that day is celebrated the undeniable proof of Christ'a mastery over all. It is the anniversary of our aviour's verification of the validity of our faith, the ground for our hopes. for if Christ had not risen, then surely would our tru t be in vain, our hopes unfounded. Let us attempt to realize the true t and deepest significance of the great feast, and let u hope that it meaning may soon be gra peel by the countless thousand who are delusioneel by the materialistic aspect that materialist ic minds have spread about it .

Of recent years t here has crept into our academic endeavors a certa in unnecessary and aggravating seriousness. Although we are not bo red with it as yet, fore igners and especially the reputedly so lemn Englishmen charitably compl ain t hat an unn atural gra vity is r endering our academic labors f util e in their eyes. Whether speaking from a forensic platform or wri tng a s imple little stor y, we are as anctimonious as the Tarcae. I t seems that we are afraid to t reat with fa cts as t hey a r e; we prefer to ens hrin e them and r ever e them as idea ls. A principle or old theory is something awful , so mething not to treat li ghtly, something we may not speak of except after earnest concentration. When a writer or speaker takes up a th esis, he enters a sanctuary of profo und thought, pays homage to all traditional notion s or principles and handles t he sacr ed vessels or facts with ut mo t care. With equal di ligen ce and intent, he urges th e congregation to join in in t he lauds, and if so methi ng would not happen to end t he ador ation, the people wou ld drop dead with thei r priest from sheer exhaustion. And to th ink that the church might have been more beautif ul than it is, if that impish iconocla t Th ackeray, and his ward H. L . Menken, had not broken the noses off t he statues ! E ven today we are shocked to think of th e maliciousness of the crime; but we find consola t ion from t he new deities we have set up. In t ru t h we are image worshipper s, when we want to. do something right . We get all our aid fro m t he mu se of seriou sness. Th e fi r st thi ng to do in all our en deavors is to become seriou s. Undoubtedly t hi s attitude is co nducive to long-suffering and patient efforts, but it is not t he sole source of appreciated or worthwhil e wor ks. Mu ch less s hou ld t he inten se strain, prod uced by an unrelenting eri ou ne s, pe rvade the work as its predominate tone. It leads to nervousness or utter disgust. Nevertheless, whether our notions are vag ue, our attit ude peevish, or beca use it is a deeply rooted tradition t hat seriousness lends the most favorab le impress ions, we inevitably become serious in whatever we do. Ju st like the Proh ibition Am end ment; no me kno ws its source, we can not realize its effects' and yet it is part of our national character. Nevertheless, we thank our kind neighbors for ca lli ng our attention to this fault of ours, and we hope co ~mon sense will be our sole guide in t he f uture. B. G. M.

At the present time he is spending much of hi spare time in South \Vilmington, Illinoi , where he is directing the church choir in a new :.\lass to be sung Easter unday. )fr. \'allely is probably one of the best mu. icians on the campus. His knowledge of mu•ical theory and his own per~onal abilities as a pianist and an organist are well above those of the average musician.

iorate. The importa nt offi ce , to which our well known and eq ua lly admired f ri e nd and teac her has been elevated, was vacated last November by the untimely death of o ur beloved Father P a lnte. ince that time the Rev. Brother W. J. Cracknell, c. s. v., ha s been in charge. Although the measure of sincere d voted ness and industry which Fa t her Plante lent to hi s duties ns Directo r see m s insurpassable, yet we feel confide nt that Father Landroche will be a worthy successor of a most worthy mnn. Father Landroc he was born in Chippewa F a lls , Wi A., imigrating in his ea rl y youth to Bo urbon nai s, where he rece ived his primary edu cat ion under the Viatorinn Br others. H e pursued his secondary education u nde r the same tu te lage, g r ad uating from St. Viator Academy in 1911. Upon finish ing his high sc hoo l education, he entercel the Vialorian novitiate in hica... go. In 1911 he prono unced hi s first vows, cnten ng on n caree r which had been as fond ly cherished by him as it was made evide nt to t hose wh o supen·ise<l his early life. From t hence , Father Land roche devot •d himself t<J t he ed ucation of youth, performing in turn all the arduous duties and tasks that hi ~ s uperiors commanded. Hi ~ many labor~ did not deter him from continuing hi!i O\'>'n educatbn.
