Une demi-heure apres. pr6c6d@
dune lanterne sourde, un pretre en-
surplis blanc, conduit par Henri
entrait dams la maison du mourant
Tandis qu'en sanglotant dams la
chambre voisine l'enfant priait
pour son pere, celui-ci inclinait son
front pale sous une absolution:
oh! mon cher petit, approche.
dit-il son fills, regarde, je suis
tout calm6 par la paix de Dieu qni
ma refait Fame. Je vais te quit
ter, je sens que la mort Went, je
suis triste de t'abandonner, ct
pourtant jamais je mai etc 81 heu-
reux. La confession est la plus
grande grace de Dieu, puisque me-
me a pagonie, ellie apporte la joie!
Respecte les pretres; ills sont plus
puissants que les medecins; a leur
parole: les plates profondes ct init
mes Sc cicatrisent, les plus grands
peches s'effacent. Prize, mon Hen
ri bien-aim6, pour que les malades
aient a ieur heure derni4re un pre-
tire Qui les b6nisse!. 90.
Epuis6, il s'arrete. L'enfant Sc
TAFT jet6 a genoux; une lueur su-
bite eclairait son anne: pour la pre-
miere fois, il comprenait la gran
deur de l'absolution, le pouvoir i'm
mense du sacerdoce, la beaut6 di-
vine qui le rend aussi fort que
Dieu.
Papa. atm quill y ait un pretre
de plus pour pardpnner, eh bien! je
serai pretre moi aussl!
Lame de celui qui partait aux
rivages 6ternels entrevit CONNIE
derniere vision terrestre la place
de son fills dams la blanche th6orie
des ,l6vites du Seigneur.
M. le cure qui, boulvers6 par Get
te double conquete de la grace, as
sistait a cette scene 6mouvante,
prit dams sa main la petite main de
lorphelin ct ne lie quitta plus; il
fut son pere d6sormais. Mainte-
nant, Penfant a grandi, il a pass6
par lie s6minaire, il s'est dome avec
toute l'ardeur de sa jeunesse a J6-
sus. II est pretre, il est cure. Tou-
jours, quand sa main Sc l9ve pour
absondre il songe la derniere alb
solution de son pere qui fut pour
lui la grace de sa vocation.
Les cinq enfants qui 6coutaient
ce r6cit cruyent sans peine a la We
rite de cette histoire, car dams les
yeux de celui qui la leur racontait
perlaient des larmes.
Mes chers enfants, cette his
toire nest pas fnie, ajouta-t-il; le
petit Henri don't je vous al racont6
la vocation, voulez-vous savoir Oh
il habite, ce quill est devenu?
Et Paul, don't Tame pure ct linn
pide CONNIE le cristal, devinait

DETECTIVES HEAVY BURDEN
Letchworth Village Board Urges
State Care for All.

Albany. Feb. Elm its fourth annual
report To the legislature the board of
managers Of Letchworth Village calls
attention To the economic side Of the
states problem of caring for the mental

serious burden placed on New York State
as Il result of the army Of defective inn
migrants allowed To enter the port of
New York While the cost of providing
adequate state care for all dependent
defective and delinquent persons would
be large. the board declares such
course would result in untold saving and
enormously reduce the number OF de-
rectives in this state. The report says:
The adoption of an Intelligent pro-
gramme To safeguard the normal pOpu-
lation through the segregation or all de-
fective and delinquent dependents. and
the appropriation by the Legislature OF
