ST. PATRICK'S
WORK RECALLED
Continued from first page. !

his way to Rome, where he was edu-
Gated to the Christian ministry. He
landed in the north of ireland in the
year 432, accompanied by a number OF
bishops and ministers Of the gospel. The
word of God was accepted by the Irish
people from him. Ireland then became
the center of Christianity, of morality,
civilization, and these principles have
been handed down to us through ages.
st. Patrick died in the year 492. 1t
is not the date of his birth but the date
of his DEATH March IL, that we com
memorate, as no historian has unearthed
the facts concerning his birth.
This is more of day of thanksgiv-
ing for the benefits bestowed to ages
by st. Patrick rather than a day of re-
ioicing. In pursuing the educational
lines of st. Patricks advent into Ire
land, we find that land as one of the
repositories of learning of the western
world. He founded St. Patriek's college
at Armaugh, one of the greatest educa-
tional institutions Nof all times. By his
propagation of learning through Ire
land, the country brought forth the high
est literature of early times. st. Pat
rick was also a law-giver. He abolished
the eye for an eve system OF law Civ
ing and replaced il with Christian for
giveness. At this time Ireland possessed
ST. Bridget one of the greatest women
of all times. 1t was st. Bridget who
founded the convent at Kildare, the first
convent in the world. During this pc
riod Ireland progressed to such degrees
that had it not been for its great knowl-
edge Greece might have been lost dur
ing the decline of Rome and it was also
true had it not been for Irish civiliza-
ton. which was being spread through
Europe, the world might have lapseG
into barbarism.
ut has been my intention to incul-
cate in the minds of the younger gen
Grafton the glorious traditions OF ire
land. The work of the Irish in America
has been worthy of the highest We
are proud OF the records of the Irish in
America. Their national and patriotic
spirit was much in evidence during the
war OF the Rebellion, the war of 1912,
OF those conflicts Irishmen were of the
greatest service to the country. In re-
turn, all we demand is that we be treat
ed fairly and respected"

for woman's ills that the world has

herbs of the field, Lydia Z. Pinkham,
