An informational prospectus or announcement for St. Anthony’s Capuchin Franciscan College in Mendocino County, California. The document traces the origin of the Irish Capuchin Franciscan expansion in America back to 1910, following an invitation from Bishop O’Reilly of Baker City, Oregon, which later led to further mission houses in Oregon, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, and ultimately California by 1920. The document explicitly outlines the purpose of the Mendocino college: to train and educate young men for the priesthood to meet the severe shortage of local clergy. It provides a detailed breakdown of semester fees totalling $212.00 (covering board, laundry, library, and athletics), while noting that reduced rates are available via bursaries for talented students of limited means. The prospectus highlights the campus’s unique ten-acre playground grounds situated among the redwood forests, lists available sports facilities like baseball and tennis, and instructs applicants to direct inquiries to the Reverend Father Superior.
