NO. i.-ERANCIS XAVIER.

Saint francis Xavier 1s known as
the Apostle of India" This noted
Jesuit was born April z. 1906, and was
educated at the University OF Paris.
where he later lectured, and there
shared a room with Peter Faber. a
Savoyard. to whom he became tender
~ attached. In 1898, Loyola, a mid
dle-aged man, meanly clad, worn with
austerities and burning with zeal, ar-
Rived at their college. Loyoia made
friends with Faber. but Xavier could
not endure him and repulsed his ap-
proaches. Loyola, discerning a de-
sirable spirit in Xavier, nevertheless.
pe%rsevered.
One day Xavier had been lecturing
on philosophy. and having met with
much applause, was walking about in
a high state OF citation when Loyola
whispered in his ear, What shall it
profit a man if he gain the whole
world and lose his sould?"
The question startled Xavier, and
changed the current OF his feelings
toward Loyola. From his on he as
! ISOLATED with him and Faber in study
and devotion. Three other students
joined them-Lainez. Babadilla and
E>odriguez-and on the sixteenth Of
August. 1884. the six met In a subter-
ranean chapel OF the church Of Mont
martre and took VOWS OF perpetual
~celibacy, poverty and labor for the
conversion Of infidels. Such was the
humble beginning Of the Society OF
Jesuits- They resolved to place their
lives at the service OF the Pope, and
while preaching at Rome in 1910,
Xavier was chosen to go as a mission
airy to India. A voyage to India was
a tedious enterprise in the sixteenth
century. He sailed from Lisbon on
the 1ath OF April, 1541, Wintered In
Africa on the coast Of Mozambique,
and his ship did not reach Goa until
the sixth Of May. 1541.
Xavier found tho Portuguese Of Goa
leading worse lives than the heathcn
except that they did not worship idols
SO their conversion was his first bust
ness. He learned the language Of
Malabar. and went preaching anon

TO DIstiIl Ocean Water.

Santa Monica, Cal. is considering
unique plan for solving the serious
water problem which it faces. The
supply is already inadequate. and an
application for part of the Owens
river from Los Angeles has not been
granted. Now it is proposed to distiIl
ocean water for domestic purposes,
and the municipality may purchase
the Burning Mountain several
miles up the coast in the Santa Mon
lea range, for use as a heating plant
It is believed the sea water could be
carried through "U'' pipe deep to
the hot interior of the smoking hill
and distilled at practically no cost
Power might be produced, some engi.
neers think, that would enable the
municipality to maintain an electric
lighting plant.
