The Rt. Rev. Monsignor M. A. Shine
The honor was conferred last June in the rallied message from the
office of the papal secretary of state. Cardinal Claparri, but the distinguish
ed churchman was not formally invested with the full splvndor of the
church until yesterday.
It was a fitting honor for the preat
work that Father Shine has perform
ed for the church in handling its af
fairs and his untirini? labor in de
veloping the early history of Nebras
ka and the west which is to add much
to the historic lore of this portion of
the west.
The entire city of Plattsmouth paid
its honor to Father Shine as well r.s
his own parishioners and the St.
John's church as well as the banquet
hall at the Kniehts of Columbus
build in? was overflowing with those
who would share in the paying of
honor to this very able and genial
priest of the church.
The Rt. Rev. Francis J. Beckmann,
Rishop of Lincoln, the highest digni
tary of the Lincoln diocese, was
present for the investiture and the
banquet that followed and gave the
honors to his faithful priest.
The investiture service was held
at the St. John's church at 4 o'clock,
and long before that hour the mem
bers of the congregation and friends
began to assemble to join in the trib
ute to tho beloved rector and a very
large number of friends from all sec
tions of the state assembled here to
join in th. impressive ceremonies.
The church was filled to its utmost
lapaeity by - the friends of Father
Shin to lionrr him and to greet the
disf ingn!el uest of honor of the
day, tUe;JDjsJiop of Lincoln diocese.
The beautiful white and gold altar
w ith its i;)ov. in'; candles ami the dec-oratior.S-'flf
tlK- red roses made a
most impressive sight as before it
was performed with piety and cere
mony the investing of the parish
priest with his new honors.
The master of ceremonies at the in
vestiture service was Father Theodore
Saurer, rector ot St. Mary's church
of Nebraska City and who arranged
the details of t Ii - impressive service.
The Episcopal processional took
place a few moments after I o'clock,
twenty priests of the Omaha and
Lincoln dioceses leading tho proces
sional and followed by Monsignor
Shine in his robes of office and the
processional closing as the august
figure of Rishop Francis J. Reck
mann, in the purrdo robes of the
high office of the church, moved to
the altar offering t lie blessing of the
church on the- assembled congrega
tion. The bishop h;,,l as his attend

This being also the occasion of the
Prst pastoral vi.-dt of the bishop, it
was made th event of the annual
address to the members of the parish
and church here. Rishop Reckmann
in his address gave a very inspiring
account of his visit to Rome in the
jubilee year. Ifl23, relating the ex
periences of seeing the pilgrims from
every country of the globe, all speak
ing a different language and wor
shipping at the altar of the common
church.
In his address to the members of
the congregation the bishop told of
the long history of the Roman Cath
olic church that claimed its descent
from the hands of Christ through St.
Peter and from him down through the
various heads of the church to the
present day. The church today is the
same as it was when the fisherman,
St. Peter, established it, the bishop
stated; the visitors at Rome on their
visit to the eternal city where the
first churches had been established,
could worship at the same altars and
use the same ceremonies that had
been the ones of the early Christians
in the catacombs of Rome when the
believers in the Christian faith were
under persecution from the forces of
the Roman empire. Though the
1.925 years since the Christian relig
ion had first been brought to earth
the Catholic church remained the
same as it had been at the beginning
although all else in the world had
changed. The bishop also called at
tention to the statement that was in
the words of Divine authority that
the church should suffer the same as
Christ in His life, from persecution,
but would emerge triumphant from
the ordeal, as it was divine in origin
and purpose.
The choir of the church with Mrs.
P. J. Flynn and Mrs. William Wool
cot as soloists assisted in the service
and the celebration of ,the blessed
sacrament.
Banquet at K. of C. Hall
The members of the visiting party
of
Ph
at
guests and large numbers of the
tts-mnuth residents were present
the banquet hall at G o'clock at
the Knights of Columbus building,
where the ladies of the parish and
the Catholic Daughters of America
had arranged a very sumptuous ban
quet in honor of Monsignor Shine.
There were some 250 in attendance
at the banquet, numbered among
whom were many distinguished resi
dents of the state, both church prel
! The banquet hall was arranged in
the purple colors, which were being
, assumed by Monsignor Shine, this
color scheme being carried out in
dows, the purple shaded electric
: Cj a -'jf- t,r;Vi:t
lights and the candles on the tables,
while extensive floral decorations of
flowers of red and purple hue served
to add a pleasing touch to the scene.
The banquet itself was all that
could be asked and the menu that
the ladies of the parish had prepared
was most thoroughly enjoyed by all
of the party and exquisitely served
j by the younger ladies of the Catholic
1 Daughters.
j The menu of the banquet was as
i follows:
I
Fruit Cocktail
Olives Stuffed Celery Tickles
Creamed Chicken in Patty Shells
Candied Sweet Potatoes
Puttered Reefs
Hot Rolls Conserve
Head Lettuce Salad with 100
Island Dressing
Wafers
Grape Ice
Assorted
Co tfee
Cakes
During the serving of the banquet
an orchestra composed of K. H.
Sihulhof. Cyril Kalina, L. D. lliatt,
Mrs. Robert Rood. Mrs. A. D. Cr.bl
well. Clarence Ledgway and Anton
Rajack gave a very pleasing program
of instrumental music that added to
'.be interest and pleasure of the ban
quet. The banquet toast list was presided
over by Rev. R. D. O'Connor, of Have
b k, v ho was most fittingly choo:i
for his position and made a clever
ami very witty introduction of the
various speakers on the program and
provided a very distinctive lv enter
taining feature of the banquet.
The address of welcome was deliv
ered by Mayor John P. Sattler. who
gave the greeting of the e?ty io
Rishop Reckmann and the distin
guished visitors who vere in attend
ance, and also paid a very high ccin
plirnent to Monsignor Shine in hN
r.ev.iy acquired honor that was most
fittingly bestowed.
Dr. Matt i-evcrin. oi Omaha, was
heard in two vnc. tl selections, being
so heartily encored that he was
forced t respond twice and with
difficulty was allowed to take hi
seat, so deli?htcd were the members
of tho banque-t party with his offer
ings. Mrs. Robe-rt Reed served as ac
companists for Dr. Soverins solos.
The toast. 'Our Holv rather, was
responded to by Father William .1.
(.race, president of Creighton univer
sity, who told of the long history of
the Cathcdh church and the JIM of
2'0 prelates who had been the suc
cessors of St. Peter in the throne of
the poper. of the church in its world
wide activities and of the unchang
ing faith and tenets of the church
that embraced membership in all
parts of the globe.
Miss Elizabeth Reverage of this
city responded to two very charm
ing vocal numbers, "The Rosary" and
"Mother Mac hree." both of whic h
were artistically given and the ac
companiment for which was played
by Miss Eleanor Hibor.
The toast, "Our Country," was re
sponded to by W. M. Whelan. of Hast
ings, grand knight of the Knights of
Columbus of Nebraska. The speak
ers stated that the land that was
lirst discovered by Columbus was
peopled by men and women who had
come to these shores from oppressions
in the old world and to found a new
nation dedicated to liberty on the
continent of America. The consti
tution of the United States has as
sured the liberty that the forefathers
had sought by its guarantees of free
speech, liberty of thought and belief
and the freedom of the individual.
The people of today are privileged to
share in the fruits and glory of these
liberties but they must maintain the
rights thus given them by vigilance
and service as true and worthy citi
zens of the nation that has given to
them this freedom. The speaker de
clared that Catholic citizens have
borne their part in the national life
and shared with others the great lib
erty that has been made a part of the
American government, and as long
as the constitution existed there will
be a guarantee of life and liberty to
the citizens of the nation. He stress
ed the fact that the family tie is the
unit of American life now as it has
been in the past, and on it the future
life of the nation will depend. The
duties of citizenship, he said, also
carry with them the responsibility of
religious belief, as a nation with a
government like ours could not exist
without a Christian faith to back it
up. To those who would create dis
sention among the American people,
it is better, he said, to ignore them
than to quarrel with them. The
citizens were warned to beware of
movements that profess to he for
American ideals, but whose teachings
are such as to overturn the American
bulwarks of liberty and freedom.
Mrs. A. D. Caldwell, in her usually I
pleasing manner, gave one of her
violin selections and to the delight of
the audience responded with an en
core number that was very much ap
preciated. Mrs. Robert Reed served
as the accompanist.
Father W. L. D. Iliggins, the genial
and popular priest of St. Patrick's
church at Manley was called upon
for the toast. "The Lincoln Priests,"
