ST. PATR|CK's CRAVE
LAST RESTING PLACE IN DOWN
PATRICK GRAVEYARD MARK
ED BY GRANITE BOULDER.

After years of neglect the traditional
resting place of the remains of Ire
lands patron saint in the Cathedral
graveyard at Downpatrick were COW
cred recently with memorial stone.
It is a rough, weather-beaten boulder
of granite, weighing about seven tons,
from the mountain side of Slievena-
Largie, where it rested at height of
six hundred feet
Upon the upper surface of this
boulder is incised an Irish cross, faith
fully reproduced from one cut on an
equally rough, unhewn stone found on
the island of Inisclothran. one of the
islands Of Tough Rec, where St. Diar
mid founded his famous ecclesiastical
settlement about the middle of the
sixth century.
Under the cross the name 'Patric'
is cut in Irish characters copied from
the earliest known Celtic manuscripts
The simple treatment is considered tt
be the nearest approach to the form Of
monument which would have been con
structed about the year 493, the sup
posed date of the saints death

The SAINT OF SILENCE
NO SAYING OF ST. JOSEPH RE.
CORDED IN HOLY SCRIPTURE.

st. Joseph is the saint of silence.
Nowhere in Holy Scripture, says the
Paulist Calendar, is any single word of
his reported. We read of an angel
coming to him at various times, tell
ing him to do this or that, to go here
or there; and always the orders are
carried out exactly and promptly
There is no asking the why" or the
"how";; no comment of Joseph's is
ever given; the evangelists are con-
tent to narrate the consequences of
the commando they are always
very simple; Joseph sets about to
obey.
There was nothing extraordinary in
the life of st. Joseph, except the one
marvellous fact that he was the foster
father of the Son of God. We need
such a patron; we need such saint

PRAYER TO SAINT PATRICK

The following poem, GA Prayer to
st. Patrick by Francis P Donnelly, S.
j., will recall to many readers the fol-
lowing passage from the Saints Con
fession":
cat midnight l saw man whose
name was Victorious coming as if from
Ireland with letters innumerable, and
he handed one of them to me, and |
read the heading of the letter, which
contained these words-'The Voice of
the Irish And as I read the begin
ming of the letter, methought I heard
in my mind the voice of those who
were near the Wood of Focluth, which
is by the western sea, and it was thus
they cried out: We beseech thee.
holy youth, come and once more walk
amongst u.s. And 1 was greatly touch
ed in my heart, so that / could read
no more; and thereupon I awoke."
1.-The voices of the Irish" Hear them
still,
Great Saint, not crying from one
islands shore
But echoing heavenward the whole
world DER,
Far from the green of Erin's vale and
hill!
Pulpit or Parliament their strong tones
fill;
Hark, they outshout the lannon's
raucous roar;
Holly they barter on trades crowded
floor,
And home and cloister with their
sweetness thrill,
Lose not one whisper of one Irish
voice!
All, multiply thy old apostleship
And Taras cooling embers reinspire!
All saddened eyes will brighten and
rejoice,
And every hand be pure and every
lip,
When every heart is lit with thy new
fire.

z. Yes 8. Christ's promise to be
with the Church until the end of time
does not necessarily imply that a
priest cannot make a mistake in re-
gard to the teaching of the Church
His knowledge of her doctrines may
be very limited and in such a case il
is possible for him to make mistake
in stating the position of the Church
on any particular question. His ignor
ance, however, does not detract from
the truth of the Church's teaching any
more than lawyers ignorance of the
decisions of the Supreme Court in g
particular case would affect that trib
unal.

HOUSES FOR POOR WIDOWS.

Charles Page, wealthy oil man of
Tulsa, Okla, has 70 adopted children,

also preparing to care for 100 poor
widows.

has built a large house on a wooded
hill It is filed with girls and boys.
He is preparing to build this winter
another house for 200 children, and
when that is finished he will begin
building more homes until he has ac-
commodations for 1000.
He has already built eight houses
for poor widows, has four more under
construction, and will have 100 built
this winter. Each house will have
two rooms, with free gas for heating
and cooking, free water, free electric

keep them going forever, Mr.. Page
has created an endowment fund, the
foundation of which is nearly all OF
his holdings of real estate, gas lands
oil wells, railroad and other proper
ties, aggregating several million dol
lars in value.
According to story told by his
brother, these acts of benevolence are
inspired by the experience of the
wealthy mans youth, when his moth
er was left widow with several chill
dren and had to take in washing, One
day, at the age of 10, as he was
watching her at work, he exclaimed
"You just wait, mamma, till I gel
rich and you won't have to wash any
more, nor any other woman won't
either I'll take care of all the poor
widows and orphans"
And now, having won wealth large
