Archbishop Christie of Oregon City held confirmation services at the Church of the Hoiy Rosary in this city, there being a class of 20 confirmed. Rev. Father Moisant has favored the Tidings with the follow ing statement of the Catholic belief as regards the sacrament of confirm-j ation: ' The Catholic believes that the sac rament of confirmation confers a permanent character or a special status in the spiritual unlvorse. thus attaining "unto the measure of the age of the fulness of Christ" or spir itual maturity (Eph. iv: 13), by the reception of the Holy Spirit. There are three characteristics of the Holy Spirit which correspond to three human needs. He Is the spirit, of truth, of strength, of love. Truth is difficult to discover and more dif ficult still to maintain, against our own propension to error and the hos tility which fills the intellectual at mosphere and the insidious attacks directed- against divine truth. We need great strength if we are to per severe in the numerous duties of a Christian life, in the unceasing con flict against the evil in ourselves and in the world and in suffering for the sake of principle. We need help to love God and our neighbor in an age of selfishness and uncharltable ness. The need of this sacrament is ful ly exhibited In the case of the apos tles. Before the Ascension they had been educated by their "Divine Mas ter. They ministered, knew and be lieved In Him. They had instructed others, had wrought miracles, had the certainty of His resurrection. Yet' with their knowledge and faitn they were cowardly men and re mained in retirement until they felt the power of-the Holy Spirit. " (Acts li : 1-4. ) The following were the members of the class: Lena Provost, Flora Provost, Mary Kennedy, Helen Bry ant, Anna Bryant, Agnes Donnelly, Margaret Donnelly, Mary Sullivan, Gladys Kaiser, Domino Provost, James Banks, Leo Finneran, Ray mond Finneran, Lawrence Backnian, John Kennedy, Vincent Kennedy, Eu gene Bryant, Albert Bryant, Hollin Donnelly and Charles Donnelly: After the confirmation services a banquet was tendered his grace at the Hotel Oregon. He went to Med- ford by auto in the afternoon and will spend several days visiting the various Catholic churches and mis sions in the Rogue River valley. Archbishop Christie expressed him self as much pleased with the city of Ashland and its surroundings and prophesies a very successful future for the city. Personal Notes That Tell of Activi ties in the Realm of the Three H's. Ashland high opens her football season by a game with Grants Pass town team here on Grants Pass Day of the fair. Owing to lack of. ma terial Grants Pass high is unable to put out a strictly high school team and has been forced to draw on the town for recruits. The girls of the Ashland high will meet the Grants Pass high school girls in the evening of the same day. Ashland's chances in this game are exceedingly good. Four of last year's championship team are back, namely: Josephine Saunders and Frances Hamlin, forwards, with Hannah Abbott and Hazel Mclntyre as guards. Ada Sonnichsen will probably make a strong b'd for the vacant position at center. These two games so early in the season ought to prove a strong drawing card for the fair. On Friday evening the senior class entertained themselves' and the fac ulty in a most enjoyable party in the gymnasium. Old-fashioned games occupied the evening. Dignified seniors and dignified professors threw off their dignity and had a thoroughly good time. It is hoped that more of these parties will be given so that the faculty and stu dents may become better acquainted and that a better understanding may exist between them. Class officers have been elected by the seniors as follows: President, Vernl Millar; vice-president,- Paul Williams; secretary, Fay Carver; treasurer, Olive Thorn. The juniors alos elected the following officers: Charles Freeman, president; Jay Withrow, vice-president; Kathryn Miller, secretary; Edith Lowry, treasurer. .......H.frfrfr.H..fr.t.fr.H.-:.fr I The Metropolitan j Concert Entertainers I Elks Hall, Wednesday, Sept. 18th POLYTECHNIC SCHOOL NOTES.

The identity of the -person who called up Chief of Police Daughtry yesterday and sent him and the other officers out to Eighth and Jackson streets to round up a blind pig in that vicinity and which turned out to be a real live pig of the hog species, blind in botn eyes, became known this afternoon at the union depot, when Hugh Cum tilings, a well-known stockman of Corvallis and purchasing agent for the Union Meat Company of Port land, alighted from the train. The first person Cummings saw when he alighted from the train was Chief of Police Daughtry standing on the station platform surveying the passing crowd, and although he tried hard enough to suppress his mirth, he was unsuccessful, and when pass ing the officer bursted out laughing, giving the whole proposition away. The police chief took the chafing of his friends good-naturedly, how ever, and upon the promise of the stockman to be good hereafter, sus pended the sentence of 30 days, which he threatened yesterday to im pose upon the perpetrator of the Joke when found. Cummings placed the pig in the barn yesterday afternoon and just before leaving for Portland on the afternoon train, called the chief up by telephone. As a result of the joke. Chief of Police Daughtry and Officers Webb and McClung have been unmercifully "joshed" by their friends, but they have taken it all good-naturedly. Good News!
