ST. ANTHoNY's LOAF.
But there is yet another saint who
seems TO be working out satisfactorily
one of the most puzzling and hlsheart-
ening of problems of modern sociology.
ST. Anthony ne is, the wonder worker
of Padua,' even that same st. An
thony to whom the fishes pray
your Thackeray.
A wonderfully successful charity
known as st. Anthony's Loaf, has
been inaugurated in New Orleans I'M
der the auspices of the St Vincent de
Paul societies of the parish churches.
st. Anthony's Loaf comprises not only
food. but also clothing and medical at
tendance-everythi necessary for the
relief of the poor without regard to
race. sex, condition or creed Men and
women out of work are aided in Sc
curing employment, children are cared
for. the aged and afflicted are speedily
ministered unto, while upon all who
are assisted is impressed the duty of
mutual help and sympathy.
This great charity. which had a
humble beginning three years ago in
an obscure street in Paris. and which
has grown TO great proportions IN
France and some of the other CONT
mental countries, was introduced one
year ago into New Orleans by one
parish church. 1t was so successful
that almost all the other parishes have
adopted it, and the women of the
churches are the principal workers in
its practical application.
St Anthony's Loaf is one of the
most practical and far-reaching means
of aiding the poor that was ever de-
vised. 1t is based upon the divine
principle of that charity which seeks
to care for the poor without distinc
ton of creed or deservingnesS.
Churches of every creed in every coun-
try might well hasten 20 organize st.
Anthony's Loaf societies. They would
perhaps do more toward bringing
about solution of the social problem
than all the congresses that have ever
convened with that end in view
