Our New President The appointm ent of t he Very Rev. John W. R. Magu ire, c. s. v., to t he presidency of St. Viator is r eceived with a genuine feeling of joy by the st ud ent body, t he facu lty and th e alum ni of the College. The new president ass umes hi s pos ition with twenty years of experience in the educational world. H 's work along eduational lines has been acknowledged again an d again by the National Catholi c Educationa l Association. During hi s years as Vice-president of t h e college he was closely in touch with all activities, a nd understan ds, perhaps better t han any other man, the needs of St. Viator, and reali zes t he means to acquire them so th at Cathol ic education in Illinois will prosper and progress. Hi s varied activities in t h e world of social action and eclucar lion fit him, in an eminent degree, to gui de t he des t inies of t he inst it ut ion for which he has labored so many years. With the fu ll confid ence of his facu lty, with the gen uine and wholehearted t ru st of the st udent body, with t h e generous loyalty and fait h of t he alumni, Father Maguire starts this year on his work to direct St. Via tor toward the horizon of her hopes and ideals. We congratula te Father Maguire on his appo intment; we assure him of our confid ence in him, and of our cooperation in his plans for a greater Viator.
Education "Down t he street, wit h laughter and shout, Glad in t he freedom of school let out, Come th e boys." Dear to our hearts in our chi ldhood clays were sentiments uch as are found in the abo ve lines. In the days when we considered th e rule of every teacher over her small charges as tyrannical and th e acquisit ion of an education a standard close of medicine of which every youth mu st partake, the very few lin es written in .. sy mpath y with th e 'mistreated' schoolboy found a ready place in our hea rts and minds. But now, we fi nd ourselves fa ce to f ace with th e proposition of making men of ourselves. Our id eas of edu cati on, its a im s, a nd it ' req uirement s, ha\·e a ll chan ged. To day t he lin es might read: "Into t he dri ve, wit h honking of horn, Glad in t he t hought t hat school 's reborn, Come t he boys." Today, the boys a re happy to ret urn to t he old schoo l. Th e realizat ion of t he fa r-reaching acJ\·antages of an educat ion has changed cons iderably t he ch ildish disaffection of earlier days. Old associat ions becko n ; lea rned and ca pable masters ask fo r audi enc e. To the ne\\" stu dent, a strange and in t eresting vista operi s before him. t range, because he meets the unusual sigh t of hundreds of bo>·s actuall y searching fo r and r eYelling in the attainment of an education. and in ter est ing, beca use of its newness and its ,·ery appare nt oppos ition to fo rmer cherished ideals.

I n th is fir st iss ue of the Viatorian it is our pleasure to extend to t he Freshmen and other new students a hearty and sincere welcome. In extending this welcome we do so as the official organ of both faculty and st udent body .

The a nnouncement of Jimmy's marriage comes as a great s urprise to his f riends at Via tor. He has the di stinction of being the firs t member of his class to join the ancient and venerable order of Benedicts. He was one of the most s uccessful a thletes to grace the Viator ca mpus during the past decade. Besides being a three-letter man he was a s tud ent of no mean qua lity. Dur ing his last year at col· lege he was elected to t he pres idency of the Viator College Clu b, and much of the progress of that org anization may be attributed to hi s adminis tration .

FATHER BURNS NOTABLY HONORED Long Years of Service Happily Rewarded Rev. A. J. Burns, S. T. L., '84, rector of St. Mary's Ch urch, Sterling, Illinois, has been selected to su cceed the Rt. Rev. Msgr. C. Kalvelage as Vicar-General of the Diocese of Rockford, Illinoi s. T he appointment was announced by the Rt. Rev. E. F. Hoban, D. D., Bishop of Rockford , last June. The Rev. Andrew J. Burns was bo111 July 12, 1870. He studied at St. Viator, St. Mary's, B!!ltimore and t he Catholic University. He was ordained fo r t he Doicese of Chicago December 17, 1898, by His Eminence, Card ina l Gibbons. He has been the pastor of St. Mary's Church in Sterling si nce 1909. Previous to t his he was in charge of t he parishes of Or egon a nd Polo. To Father Bums belongs the cr edit of having built the present parochial school and· com muni ty high, which are t he pride not only of S terling, but of the Rockford Diocese. Dui'ing his long term of service in guiding the spiritual destinies of the peo ple of Sterling, Father Burns has been an exemplary and beloved past:~ r. His very evident success in buildt 1 mg up hi s church property is due first w : >f an , to his own remarkable efforts and in not a less degr ee to t he splE>n~ did example of generos ity which he • nimself set to his people. For one thing in particular is he .videly noted , namely, the or ganizaoion of the Sterling Benso n Clu b. Tht 11embership of th is clu b now numbers wer 'two hundred converts from tht' ;wo parishes of t he city. In response to a recent congratJlator y note sent to Father Burn~ by ~ev . J. W. R. Maguire, President of ~t. Viator Coll..!ge, a highl y intt! f·~c;t ng and pleasing letter was received. rhe following quotation frorc t hat nissive demons trates t he love and ·egard which Rev. Burns holds for 'l is Alma Mater: "To no other in siimtion do I owe so much as t o St. liator and no body of men exact nore esteem from me than the re igious of your community.
