Oh the water. tell you he looks grand
NO wonder the Irish are proud of him.
Rlght next to st. Patrick is ST.

lovely border of grapes. Next is St
Andrew, one of Christ's first disciples
Next is our Lady of Perpetual Help.
The little infant looks like he was

is the dear St. Joseph. You would feel
like going up and speaking to him,
so lifelille is he. The Ecce Homo and
Our Lady of Sorrows are next. They

perfect. So natural are his beads you

Next is st. Matthew and st. Mark.
They, too, are whiting. Next is the
Sacred Heart of Jesus. The rays from

You must come and see us at the dedi-
cation. l know you will be pleased.
Love from Dick Morrissy and Bob Adj

the dedication of the church. She at
tended the concert on Thursday night.
