MISS ODILE BIENVENU,
MEMBER OF SODALITY OF CHILDREN
MARY, PASSES AWAY.

The news of the death of Miss
Odils Bienvenu, . member Of tho
Sodslity of the Children of Mary,
brought heartfelt sorrow TO her
many friends here. Her death
occurred in the city of New Or
lssus. where she had been spend
ing some time with her sister, .
nun of tho religious order of Sis
tors of Mercy, but Miss Bienvsnu
was a native of st. Martinville and
Q permanent resident Of the place.
Her illness was of some months
duration, aud, therefore. her death
was not unexpected. Nevsrthe-
less, it does not lessen the pang of
separation which Death always
brings.
Miss Bisnvenu led . very ordi-
nary life, but she strovs, a. far %
lay 10 her power to fulfil the OBJ
ject of our Heavenly Father in
sending Us into the world, - that
of earning a place in heaven. Her
preparation, therefore. for this last
momsnt,-ths most decisive of oil
others in each ones life - upon it
depends eternity - consisted sim
ply in the accomplishment of good
work and daily duties in such .
manner % to comply with Gods
will.
A true Catholic, she did not CON-
slider the practice Of the prsscri-
bed religious duties a. sufficient,
and, consequently, had joined since
many years some of the confrater-
mites OF the town. She was .
member of the Sodslity Of the
Children of Mary, and an Asso.
ciste Of the Apostleship of Prayer,
being q Counsellor in tho fret
uamsd society. and q Promoter in
tho second, - the League of the
Sacred Heart of Jesus.
AZ 10 the case in each individual
life, there were difficulties to meet
in the performance Of right from
. religious standpoint, and, in con-
quering self, war doubtless wsged
at times against human passions,
but We have only to think of the
reward God has promised to those
faithful to Him to the end in
struggles like these, and We will
be compelled to acknowledge that
it 10 worth far more than the sxer-
ton put forth to win it. Hence,

THE SCAB.-Last Thursday Jane

Give us more analyses of this strange

word "scab'' for thirty years and

The Impoverished Type-The I'M

to execute judgment; one whose be-
loved wife needs constant medical at
tendance. These men require some
economic protection before they win
strike or refrain from scabbing.
