ST. JOSEPH
VIII BE ftouored All over
Catholic World
Tomorrow.

Tomorrow. March 10. will be st.
Joseph's day, and as such will be
celebrated by Catholics the world
over Even where Catholic frishmen
have deferred the feast Of St Pat
rick until tomorrow. they honor the
spouse Of the Blessed Virgin none
the less. Here in Louisville the
principal celebration OF the day VIII
take - &c at st. Toseph's church,
Washington and Webster streets,
where a solemn high mass viii be
sung at 10 O'Clock.
St. Joseph occupies place OF his
own in the devotion OF modern Cath
olics. such as Is given no other saint.
The devotion to ST. Joseph Is q
striking instance OF Catholic usage,
modern in itself and yet based on
most ancient and scrlptural prin-
ciples ST. Joseph was the husband
OF Mary. the mother OF Cod Our
Saviour, Himself was subject 70
him while the saint lived To have
been chosen by God Himself as th1
husband of the virgin mother and
the foster father OF our Lord these
are surely solid grounds for
singular devotion to st. Joseph.
In 1892 Pope Urban VII. made
st. Joseph's day, March 10, holiday
OF obligation. but this regulation IS
not observed In America. In 1871
Plus TX, confirming a decree OF the
Sacred Congregation. placed the
whole church under the patronage OF
St. Joseph, chose him as the church's
protector and made his feast q
double Of the first class
Catholics yenerate st. Joseph be-
cause he was protector OF the holy
family on earth and must neces-
sarily be intercessor in heaven for
faithful Catholics in heaven

st. Patrick left more than faith ia
Christ In ireland. lie left his mis-
sionary spirit to the Irish people,
and It's impress has been felt in
every country and every cline. Since
his time the Irish have been sent
into the world 10 witness for the
lnalsrnab;e rights OF personality
against ali the distractions and
cruelties OF formal law. st. Patrick
Was a Christian missionary. He
preached the doctrines OF love and
Brotherhood In so wonderful a way
that people believed him. The Irish

sionarles, preaching 70 the whole

An InIsn.AMERIoAN noLIDAY.

You might as well understand Il
now. that St. Patrlcks day is not
only an Irish anniversary but an
American institution. Several slgners
OF the Declaration OF Independence
had Irish blood in their veins, More
than one President OF the United
States has been proud Of his Irish
blood, and George Washington was
an honorary member Of, the Friendly
Sons OF 81. Patrick. However. It is
not generally known that Washing
ton was the father OF 81. Patrlck's
day celebrations In this country. To
his soldiers encamped at Morrlstown
he gave the first order ever issued
In this country TO observe the an
niyersary OF st. Patrick.

and literature. SURPRISING many

JUST A WARNING.

There seems to be much miscon-
ception among non-Cathollcs as to
the position OF Catholics In matters
political. Every Catholic should
seek to make his position plain
concerning his stand IN politics. In
the first place the Catholic who
seeks political preference does so as
citizen Of his county. city, State or
nation as the case may be. No
/ Catholic stands on platform so
narrow that faith Is his only
qualification.
We Catholics demand that we
must not be voted against because
we are Catholics; neither must we
seek votes simply because we are
Catholics Necessarily We must
have other qualifications. The con-
test must be on principles and the
tsaracter and trustwortbiness Of the
candidates. On this basis Catholics
are willing to enter any political
contest; on this basis they have no
fear OF opponents.
It is no more to be considered a
compliment to nominate a Catholic
for office than It ia to nominate
candidate of any other religious
belief.
Political parties are falllble just
as individuals are fallible. and
party that would nominate a man
merely to get the Catholic vote. or
nominate a man. even though not a
Catholic, as a decoy or bait to|
gather Catholic votes. Irrespective oil
the principles for which that party
stands, or the qualifications OF the
candidates. as blind to cover the
party's deficiencies. would insult the
intelligence and belittle the patriot
ism of the Catholics they would seek
to ensnare.
No Catholic must stand for such
an Insult TO his fellows, because he
is bringing scandal upon his fellow
Catholics. No honor comes 10
Catholic office holder whether ne be
a lowly Constable or the Chief
Justice Of the United States Supreme
Court unless his integrity. ability
and patriotism in the performance
OF his political duties draw forth !
the commentator and approval Of
all fair minded citizens.

WHY IRISH ARE PROUD.

Aside from the religious sig
nificance OF March II. why do We
irish celebrate today? Because we
we're before Rome was dreamed OF;
because the people OF France and
Germany we're running naked
through the woods when ireland had
her own Parliament l.317 years be-
fore the advent of Christ; because
cur ancestors got the faith and kept
It; because Irlshmen have carried
the faith to every land; because the
Irish spirit has never been con-
quered.
English intrusion in Ireland has
been 80 poisonous In It's results.
absorbing the attention OF students
and statesmen. that men forget its
evils mark but a recent phase In
Ireland's history, Dane and Norman
notwithstanding had until the six
teenth century a wonderful career.
AS late as 1886 a statesman beloved
by Henry VIII. described Ireland as
None other but very paradise,
delicious OF all pleasaunce, to respect
and regard of any other nation in
the world"
Not the saxons. but the Normans,
came to ireland in 1859 as they had
conquered England They we're
noble fellows and succumbed to
irish civilization. becoming more
Irish than the Irish themselves The
pitch cap, the gibbet. the poison
cup and the Protestant Bible were
brought to Ireland by the Saxon
horde four centuries later
SO old was the civilization in the
days OF Rome's glory that Plutarch
tells Us that the civilization OF
other nations is new compared to
It. Not tradition but written history
tells US that Ireland's national
Parliament was in session at Tara as
early as 1917 d. e. It's sessions were
held every three years, There the
Brehon laws were formulated and
the legislators were entertained by
the Ard-Rlgh. whose line continued
Tor 1000 years.
st. Patrick knew OF the advanced
state OF civilization OF the Irish. lie
turned his knowledge to advantage,
and It was a comparatively easy
task for him TO combine faith
IN the Trinity with their worldly
knowledge. ST. Patrick entrusted
the truths of Christianity 10 a nation
in which he had faith. That people
have defended the faith for fifteen
and. please God. they win
defend It while time lasts. Today
amid the ruins Of ancient abbeys, OF
round towers and Celtic crosses. the
prayers OF Irish men. women and
are going up for the saliva
ton OF the world as well as for the
welfare Of Ireland. In
America. In South Africa. in Aus
tralia. in every land where the sun
shines today there are exiled Irish
men praying 70 God:
