The children Of the Catholic Orphan
Asylum Of st. Paul were most gen
crously remembered by those who in
the true Christmas spirit. realize that
Christ has truly come again, in the
person of His homeless little ones. The
bounty Of these benefactors brought
joy and gIadness to many a. childish
heart, procuring for children gifts
which otherwise would have been be-
yond the power Of the Sisters to be-
stow. Nothing was wanting from the
traditional Christmas tree with it's or
naments and toys, to the more substan-
tial gifts that last and give pleasure
TO all who so literally contributed
to the happiness and wcllbeing Of the
orphans on Christmas day, both chill
dren and Sisters gratefully acknowledge
their indebtedness. May the choicest
blessings the New Year has in store,
be theirs and when at last comes the
eternal Now Year, may they receive
the reward OF those who for their
charity have their names recorded in
the Book Of Life.
Again We thank you, and wish you
happy New Year.

brought to the courthouse to be ex-

cases in charge of local hospitals. Of
the total number examined, 40 were
found to be insane and We're commit
