charge of the Parish of Our Lady of
Good Counsel Church in Little Rock
previous to coming to Fort Smith in
1906. He has greatly improved the
Church of the Immaculate Concep-
tion here. Rev. Dr. Horan has labor-
ed and still labors indefatigably for
the glory of God and the spiritual
welfare of his people. He is jealous-
ly devoted to the religious instruc-
tion non-Catholics under instruction
and as a result has received a very
great number into the church. He is
very devoted to the religious instruc-
tion of the children, taking great care
to prepare them for the reception of
the sacrament. He is most devoted
and regular in the discharge of his
sacred duties, having regular hours
for the celebration of the Holy Mass
daily, prayers every evening in the
church and confessions. It is doubt-
ful if any clergyman of any faith in
the state is more universally popular
with members of other denominations
and with the public in general, for
bes!(les being a devout priest, Rev.
Dr. Hm'an is regarded and looked up-
on by all as one of the leading citi-
zens of Fort Smith.
Cultured Priest.
Dr. Horan who, when not engaged
in pastorial duties, leads the life of a
hermit amidst the books of his large
library, is very popular among the
members of his parish. As a lecturer
on literary and patriotic themes he
has few equals in the country. His
memory is prodigious; he can astonish
a German with quotations from Schil-
ler and Goethe, make an Italian mar-

Genial Host. -- " I
Far from the proverbial pedantry A very successful teacher of boys
of the philologist, however, he is a gave six "remembers" to his pupils:
.First--That a quiet voice, cour-
tesy and kind acts are as essential
to the part in the world of a gentle-
man as of a gentlewoman.
Second--That roughness, bluster-
ing, and ever foolhardiness are not
manliness. The most firm and
courageous men have usually been
the most gentle.
Third--That muscu'.ar strength is
not health.
Fourth--That brain crammed omy
with facts is not necessarily a wise
one.
FifthThat the labour impossible
to the boy of fourteen will be easy
to the man of twenty.
Sixth--That the best capital for a
boy is not money, but a love for
work, simple tastes and a heart loyal
to his friends and his God.

Fitzgerald, and since covered by the
