Mr.. Grayson. stepped briskly out
from between the granite pillars Of

When Virginia saw the stranger she
shrank back into the recesses Of the
limousine. Another Of, fathers eli.

But after her father had opened the
glass door and stepped back to permit
his companion to- enter the latter
changed his mind. I'm sorry, Mr..
Grayson. but it has Just occurred to
me that was to do something for my
aunt. 1t almost escaped my memory.
l am very sorry indeed to have to re-
fuse your invitation"
You'll not meet my daughter" re-
turned her father in his blunt, brusQue
way, that brought the color flying to
her cheeks.
He added, And she's worth meet
ing" Virginia could have cried.
Il know Miss Grayson is unusually
charming, and am disappointed more
than can tell you. Perhaps you will
md 1t in your heart to ask me again. /"
The men shook hands, babe each
other good evening, and her father got
into the car.

A few hours like these just closed
this evening are the full compensa-

ty.two years time. This gathering OF
the priests and the kind, not to say
exaggerated, compliments given to me
without a discordant note, take away
all labors, failures, fatigues and short
comings of fifty years and leave me
feeling as young in heart, at least, as
| was on the day of my ordination.
I will not rehearse those early days or
later years of my life-the Archbishop

good God, the giver and keeper of
life, for the seventy-two years he has
bestowed upon me and for my remain
ing still vigorous and healthy. |
thank Jesus Christ that He has per-
mitted me to partake of the priest
hood for fifty years, and for overlook
ing the shortcomings of these years.
thank the Archbishop for coming
and honoring the occasion and know
right well that he has done it with
heartfelt love. / thank the Bishops
who have come for the occasion as
well as the priests for expressing
their loyalty and love.
"The credit for the work of this
diocese, which acknowledge has been
great, belongs to the. devoted clergy
and a number of faithful men and
women of inspired courage who have
contributed of the means God has CIV

Il thank the Knights of Columbus
who abetted and supported the work
of education, and especially for the
work done by them in Columbus Col

NEW CANCER HOSPITAL
"HoUsE OF. CALVARY" is A MOD
ERIN BUILDING FOR CARE OF
CANCER PATIENTS AMONG THE
PooR-THE oUTGRoWTH OF A
HOME ESTABLISHED BY A FEW
CATHOLIC WIDOWS.

The new House of Calvary, hos
pital for the care of poor cancer
patients, at Featherbed Lane and Nc
Combs road, Bronx, was solemnly
blessed by His Eminence Cardinal
Farley on Sunday afternoon, October
81. The Right Rev. Monsignor Joseph
F. Mooney, v. g., preached the ser,
mon on the occasion.
The handsome new building, COM
modious and modern in every respect,
is the realization of the hopes of
many years. Ever since the first
House of Calvary was established at
5 and Perry street, in 1889, the work
has been hampered by lack of room,
and at last the good Sisters are able
to pursue their Christ-like charity on
a much larger scale.
The House Of Calvary was built by
the Women of Calvary of the Asso-
citation of Catholic Charities, officers
of which are: Mrs. Joseph J. O'Don-
ohue, chairman; Mrs Herman K. Vie
lie, treasurer; Mrs. Catherine McPar-
Ian, secretary
The building is of colonial archi-
lecture, three stories in height, with
walls of red brick and white marble,
and was planned in accordance with
the pavilion type of design. The cost
is about 100000
The House of Calvary was estab-
lished in 1889, through the generous
benefaction of the late Adrian Islin,
at and Z Perry street, for the treat
ment and care of poor people who are
afflicted with cancer. 1t was estab-
lished by the Women of Calvary, an
organization of Catholic widows who
bound themselves to care for these
afflicted individuals. It's founder was
Mrs. A. B. Stoors, who had brought
the knowledge of this charitable en-
deavor from Lyons, where she became
member. She succeeded in inter
esting a number of other women in
the enterprise, and started this first
establishment for the work, under
Catholic auspices, in this country.
Some years ago the Sisters of st.
Dominic took the management and
care of the house.
The old building of the House of
Calvary in Perry street was vacated
year ago.. as the property was need
ed for the extension of Seventh ave
nue., and a temporary home was es-
tablished in an unused public school
building at 1870 Wooster street, where
thirty-five patients were cared for un.
til the new hospital was completed.

IRISH SCRIPT
HARAcT ERIsTIc NATIONAL
WRITING CAN BE TRACED
BACK TO ST. PATRICK.


To st. Patrick Ireland owes its ex-
quisite script, which speedily sup
planted the original Ogam, the Gaelic
alphabet of ancient times. The basis
of this script is the Roman half-uncial
hand, uncial being the script used
upon papyrus and parchment in the
late Roman empire, consisting of
rounded forms with somewhat curved
vertical strokes.
Owing to the isolated position of the
island and the consequent absence Of
extraneous influences strongly char
acteristic national hand developed,
which ran its uninterrupted course
down to the late Middle Ages. This
hand was at first round in character
and of great clearness, beauty and
precision; but, at an early period, q
modified. pointed variety Of a minus
Guile type developed out Of it, used for
quicker and less ornamental writing.
As might have been expected, the
same authority AYERS, the English
adopted both the round and pointed
varieties Of their Irish teachers.

One of the earliest and most beau
tiful examples of the former is The
Book of Durham or the Lindisfarne
Gospel, written about 700 A. D. by
Eadfrith, Bishop of Lindisfarne.
And, as a specimen Of the latter,
may be mentioned a fine copy of
Bede's Ecclesiastical History in the
University of Cambridge, written not
long after 730, which possesses an adj
ditional interest as preserving one of
the earliest pieces of poetry in the
English language, The Hymn of Caed-
mon, in the original Northumbrian
dialect.
A relatively small number of manu-
scripts has come down to us through
the vicissitudes of the ages; they are
scattered far and wide, at present
through collections public and private.
Trinity College, the Royal Irish Acad-
envy, London, Paris, Berlin, Brussels,
and scores of others are jealously pre-
serving the most precious specimens.
The exact amount of Irish literature
still remaining has never been deter
mined, maintains DIR. Douglas Hyde.
According to him French scholar
has noted 1873 existing manuscripts,
all of them over three hundred years
old, and some over thousand years,
and the whole number found existing
in public libraries on the Continent
and in the British Isles was 1909.
But hundreds upon hundreds exist in
private collections. scattered through
out the country, and hundreds upon
hundreds more have been destroyed
since the so-called National Schools
were established by the English gov
eminent in Ireland, to train up the
children of Irishmen as though they
were the children of people in Birm.
ingham or Liverpool.
The art of Illuminating manuscripts
has been known from times immemo-
rial. The moment manuscript had
been finished in the Seriptorium, the
general writing room of the typical
monastery, it passed into the hands of
another expert, the illumination, before
being turned over to the binder. The
characteristic feature of Irish illumi.
mating is the use of dots, following the
outlines of the initials; delicate spi
rails, interlacing ribbons and tes-
selated patterns.
This applies particularly to early
Irish manuscripts, notably The Book
of Kells of the seventh century, now
| in Trinity College, Dublin. A well
executed specimen page giving a por.
ton of Christ's genealogy reveals
other characteristics, profuse capitals
bold penmanship, and trenchant
figures. To the monk-artist, illuminat-
ing was labor of love, as may easily
be seen from the rich tints and deli
cate intricacies of his glorious art.
The monastic rule of the early
Church made liberal allowance for the
copying of manuscripts, religious and
profane. The men who wrote both
roll and book, and to whose patience
and devotion we owe so much of our
knowledge of the times gone by, were
the monks themselves, acknowledges
the Cambridge History of English Lit.
erature. The cloister was the center
of life in the monastery, and in the
cloister was the workshop of the pa
tient scribe.
In these scriptoria or writing rooms
of various kinds the earliest annals
and chronicles in the English and
Gaelic tongues were penned, in the
beautiful and painstaking forms in
which we know them.
