ARCHBISHOP RYAN DEAD
One Of the Foremost Pulpit Orators
In the Country

IN the country
Philadelphia, Feb. 13-Serene, pre-
pared to meet the God he had served
so well, the Most Rev. Patrick John
Ryan, d. d., LII. D., archbishop Of
Philadelphia and Metropolitan of
Pennsylvania, passed peacefully into
eternity at 4:08 o'clock Saturday af-
ternoon at the Arch-Episcopal resi-
dence adjoining the Cathedral in Lo-
gan Square. For weeks the disting.
uished prelate, who would have been
eighty years of age had he lived un.
til the goth of this month, fought off
death, but a weak heart, enfeebled
by the arduous duties of his high Of
flee, could not stand the strain and
he passed away breathing the bene-
diction God Bless you upon those
who stood about the bedside.
Until successor to Archbishop
Ryan is appointed, which will not be
for some time the Rt. Rev. Edmond
f. Prendergast, ID. ID. V. G. titular
bishop OF Scillio and auxiliary bishop
of Philadelphia, becomes administra-

designated eleven years ago by Arch
bishop Ryan. AS administrator Bish-

Archbishop Ryan was considered
the greatest Of the line of bishops and
archbishops that have occupied the
Episcopal See of Philadelphia since

was national and In his home city he
was accorded a popular recognition
that far surpassed that Of any OF his
predecessors, he having been on the
friendliest terms with men of all
denominations. He was one Of the
foremost pulpit orators in the Cath
Ollie church in this country.
The Archbishop was born in Thur
les. County OF Tipperary, Ireland. on
February 20, 1881. His ancestors on
the paternal side were originally the
Organs who figure in Irish history.
His parents died when he was very
young and his youthful education was
received from the Christian Brothers
at Aries. Young Ryan studied at the
Carlow Seminary and later came to
this country, going to st Louis where
he was appointed professor in Car
donelet Seminary. On September is,
1853 he was ordained a priest by
Archbishop Kendrick In 1855 he
was made rector OF the st. Louis
Cathedral and four years later he
was placed N charge OF the Clutch
OF the Assumption.
In 1878 Father Ryan was cohsecra

the right of succession and In 1884
he was appointed Archbishop OF Phil

writing out for his boy friends the

too much. They get too much pleas

want to work"
What a mistakel
Play is work The iov OF It disguises
the fact that 1t is work-usually hard
work. And the truth Is the child that
plays with the most zest Is apt to work
with the mos' zeal.
Play is joyous activity.
II makes muscle. Better than all the
gymnastic exercises you force upon
the child is the natural activity OF
heaithful play Play is the expression
OF the body in Joy. =.

active games the child must think
