Father Smith. 1T remained through ages
OF persecution. and that came faith has
come down to our own day. Other ma
tons have had day when faith flour
ished in their midst. but few nations
have the record of tracing an unbroken
steadfast faith back 10 the days Of the
first apostle who preached II to them.
The day came In the history Of most
nations when faith was taken from them
through the infidellty of their children.
This can never be said of Ireland. Irish
bishops and cardinals. Irish priests and
nuns in every land OF the world proclaim
by their example that Patrlck's faith
Is as strong today as II ever was"
Father Smith spoke Of the beauties Of
