BROUGHT OLD FOES TOGETHER
Two Results of Deep Potations on St.
Patrick's Day.

Here is an echo of st. Patrick's day
in story that is going the rounds of
the police officers in a certain district.
In fact, the story began two years
back from the 18th of last March. At
that time certain son of Erin, in
honor of the patron saint of his coun-
try, imbibed just freely enough to
make him bit peevish. A gentleman
whose ancestors hail from the land of
the Kaiser Wilhelm did the same
thing, possibly because it was not the
day dedicated to the patron saint of
his country-the average man can find
an excuse in anything when he wants
to take little more than is good for
him.
With such inspiration on st. Pat
rick's day, 1907, 1t did not take much
to get up a goodlysized quarrel be-
tween the Irishman and the German,
and each said mean and horrid things
about the land which the other de-
lighted TO honor. By and by 1t
reached the You're another" stage.
And for whole year the two
guardians Of the peace We're enemies
But on st. Patrick's day next year
the twain again INDUCED in frequent
libations, and this time with different
results, for each one was inspired
with great and deep love for all
mankind.
With this love in their hearts the
old enemies met.
Herman" said the Irishman, be
gorra, but I'm name man. Will ye
fergive and fergit for the sake of
auld times?"
Sure Mike, but dat iss Won ting l
will do"
There is not any moral to this story
unless 1t is that there are queerer
things than green snakes to be seen
on st, Patrick's day.-Cleveland

tary turned out, there were balls, ban

| want to know Is whether ST. Patrick
or George Washington is the nations
patron saint"
Some idea of how powerful figure
st. Patrick was may be gained by
comparing the memory of st. Patrick,
born 1886 years ago, with that of
George Washington, who has been
dead little more than century.
st. Patrick went into Ireland when
It was plunged in the darkness of
paganism. He confronted hostile
people with a dozen assistants. He
carried the new civilization with him.
He met a fighting race and subdued 1t
single-handed.
His first work In reaching a COM
munity was to preach the gospel in
the native tongue of the people This
he did with Pauline fervor and a fire
Of conviction which fired the heart and
imagination of the people. You can
look at the work of any Irish priest
to-day and see the duplication of st.
Patrick's method. First talk to the
people. then the building of church,
then the erection of a school, and
then the exhortation to practice the
Christian virtues, the succor of the
widow and the orphans. the weak, the
fallen and the aged.
Patrick established universities
which, by the labor of the inmates,
were self-sustaining, and to which the
youth of England flocked by thousands.
Europe, during his lifetime, was in
confagration. Hordes of the north,
Goths and Vandals, ravaged the south,
and the lamp of learning, extinguished
on the continent, burned brightly in
the cloisters of the monasteries and
universities of Ireland. Patrick trans
lated nothing into Irish. He taught
the Irish Latin and implanted, full
born, the civilization of Christian
Rome.
He introduced the arts and crafts,
developed agriculture, taught industry,
application and love of work Institu-
tions of learning churches and homes
of religious workers, training schools
and seminaries, were supported, not
by contributions, but by labor of the
inmates
From ldleness to industry, from
fighting to the arts of peace, from
Druidical worship to Christian prac.
tice and ideals, st. Patrick turned the
whole island by personal effort and
example, by incessant exhausting toll.
He died as he lived, without the pos
session of a groat
The arts and letters, science and
biblical knowledge which fed from the
continent took refuge in the famous
schools which made Durrow and Ar
ragh the universities of the west. To
the eternal honor of Irish hospitality
( be 1t said that these thousands of
strangers from every country in Eu-
rope were not only welcomed but sup
j. ed gratuitously with books, clothes
and food.
The scholarship thus engendered re-
furnished Europe when, a century's
anarchy over, the Irish missionaries
