The first issue of the Loyola Dental Journal for this "year was published in November. This is the first number of the second volume and contains, as usual, many articles of interest to the dental student. The main paper of the issue is entitled "Secondary Enamel Calcification," by N. E. Perret, a student of the Junior Class. The article deals with calcification after an eruption leading to immunity to dental caries. It tells of research work of many prominent scientists and gives in brief a history of the discoveries made from time to time that resulted in the present acceptance of belief on the subject. In concluding the article the author sets forth this acceptance of the noted scientists of today in these \vords,"Secondary calcification brought about by an ideal dentifrice can and does occur in the mouth, giving us immunity to dental caries." Other articles in the issue are: "Student Council," by J. W. Enuiier; "Enthusiasm," by Jacobs; and an article on "Entrance Requirements." The editorial columns of the journal stress the importance of training and practice in the writing of English for the dentist of today. All students of the dental school are urged to make use of the columns of the journal towards obtaining this training and practice. The editorials express deep regret over the loss of Dr. White, who resigned from the teaching staff during the last semester. A hearty welcome is given to Dr. Dansereau, who has the distinction of being a member of GREETINGS! To the Faculties and Students of all day and night departments of Loyola University. I give my warmest wishes, that your Christmas may be holy and happy, and your New Year glad and hopeful. And because I am unable to do it myself, I charge you with the duty of greeting with the same cordial good wishes, all the friends of the University beyond its walls. There is no time of the year's many days which makes the same tender, yet powerful appeal to the human heart, as the Christmas season. For Christmas is the birthday oi a Babe, Who is the Lord, Jesus Christ. Once only was He born, and, so, there is, and can be, only one Christmas. Gone, as a unit of time, is that one Christmas day, but what that day brought to the world lasts forever. For everlasting is the scene of the first Christmas. Coming. He came alone, but He came into company. Mary and Joseph, the cattle and the shepherds; the manger and the hay; the starry skies and the singing angels — these were once together in a far-away land, but forever are they found and everywhere w hen Christmas comes. This scene was the joy of the first Christmas. Seeing it after the years since then, let us with the shepherds go to Bethlehem and "find the Child and His Mother." They were the joy of the first Christmas. They are the joy of our Christmas. Only through Them can we have a holy and happy Christmas. Rev. Francis X. Twellmeyer, S.J. President. LOYOLA TOASTED AT ALUMNAE BANQUET Association Has Displayed Great Interest in Loyola; Mrs. Thiberge Presented With Bouquet. "Watch Loyola the wonder school of the South." Such was the toast given at the twelfth annual reunion banquet of the Rosary Sacred Heart Alumnae. The association is composed of many ladies who have done much towards advancing Loyola. It was during the drive for building funds three years ago that their interest in the university was displayed to a great advantage. At the meeting of the association, Mrs. N. F. Thiberge, the retiring president, was presented with a beautiful bouquet. Miss Lillian Dayrics, who made the presentation, spoke of the conscientiousness and willingness with which Mrs. Thiberge had performed her duties as president and thanked her in the name of all the members. Mrs. VV. A. Kernaghan, the newly elected president, was then presented STUDENT COUNCIL HOLDS MEETING Committee Reports Fourteen Recognized Organizations on Campus. There are fourteen recognised student organizations at Loyola. Such was the statement issued by the Student Council on Wednesday. December 10th. It was made following the report of Charles E. VValcott, chairman of the organizations' committee. Mr. Walcott reported that thirteen student organizations had presented him with an account of their officers, history and purpose. This was required of the Secretaries of all student organizations by the Council a short while ago. Mr. Walcott's report is as follows: "Loyola Student Council — Having been appointed by this body to receive a report from each student organization now functioning at Loyola University, such report to contain the name, object, history and officers of the respective organizations, I beg to report that to date the following have been received: Beggars Fraternity, Beta Phi Sigma, College Debating Society. College Dramatic Society, Delta Phi, Epsilon Kappa Sigma, Lambdau Tau Lambda Sorority, Loy- SOCIETY FORMED IN UNIVERSITY Known As Crusaders of Loyola; To Help Missions. Another society has been added to Loyola's rapidly growing list of organizations. The latest is the "Crusaders of Loyola." The society was formed for the purpose of affiliating itself with the Catholic Students' Mission Crusade, a nation-wide organization, as a local unit. The object of the Students' Crusade is to assist the Missions, both foreign and those located in the United States, in their noble efforts for the salvation of the souls and the preservation of the bodies of our neglected and indigent fellow-beings. Aid is given both by subscription, in the form of yearly dues, and by individual and general contributions on the part of the members.There are several branches of the Students' Crusade in and around New Orleans, and it was for the purpose of MSUttng these units in their work and in uniting the efforts of all for mutual inspiration and for concerted mission work that the Loyola chapter was formed. As soon as the Loyola organization receives its charter from the national headquarters of the Catholic Students' Mission Crusade, it will act as the center for New Orleans and the vicinity. An election of officers for the Loyola Crusaders was held on Thursday, December 4th, with the following result. Mr. G. Price Crane was elected President. A glance at his record shows the high regard in which he is held by his fellow students and the worthiness of his choice. Besides LADIES MARQUETTE ASSOCIATION HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING Expansion of Maroon Taken Into Consideration. TWO REPORTS RENDERED Plans for Illumination of Driveway Completed. The regular monthly meeting of the Marquette Ladies' Auxiliary of Loyola University was held Tuesday, December 4th, in Louise Thomas Hall. The meeting was opened with prayer by the Rev. F. X. Twellmeyer, President of the University and Chaplain of the Association. In the absence of Miss L. Delßondio, the president. Mrs. T. C. Xicholls, third vice-president, was in the chair. A detailed report from Fr. Terence King, faculty adviser of the Maroon, was read and discussed. The report set forth the relations which exist between the Maroon and the Ladies' Auxiliary. These relations began in November, 1923, when the Maroon was first published. At that time the Marquette Ladies' Auxiliary pledged their association to support the Maroon by a monthly contribution of $25.50. The passing of a year brought a great increase to the Maroon, which grew from a four-page paper to an issue of eight pages. This expansion could not be met financially with the former subsidy. The Ladies in this December meeting voted to increase their support to $33.60 monthly. It was also determined to have the mid-month number of the Maroon the Ladies' official issue to which the report of their monthly meeting would be printed together with the announcement of the next meeting. As a result of this decision the Ladies' Marquette Auxiliary will receive henceforth only one issue a month. A second report from Father Giglio, Curator of the University, was read next. This report showed that Fr. Giglio was occupied with getting estimates from electrical companies for the fixtures which are to be installed for the illumination of the Father Otis Memorial Driveway in front of Marquette Hall. The need of increased lighting of this driveway has been occasioned by the congestion caused by the numbers frequenting the night courses at the university. The Secretary of the Marquette Ladies' Auxiliary, Mrs. J. D. Bloom, furnished some most interesting historical facts concerning the origin of the Marquette Ladies' Auxiliary Association, which were gathered from the minutes of December, 1908. This record shows that the first bequest made to Loyola University came from Miss Louise Mylotte, a New Orleans school teacher. It was a modest sum of $10.00 left by one who always had at heart the interest of childre'n. For Misa Mylotte, the supreme interest of a child was its religious and moral training, which could be given only in a school conducted by Catholics. The Marquette Ladies point with (Continued on 7.)
