MRS. DEHEY GIVES
HISTORY Of NUNS
First Order Was Established in
the Third Century-TeIIS of
Their Work at Meeting of
Catholic WOmen'S Club.

The second Of a series of successful
Thursday evening talks for The mem
bers of the Catholic Women's club was
given last evening before a large and
interesting audience in st. Patrick's
library.
Mrs. Thomas J. Dehey gave the talk
and reading for the evening on Re
ligiOus orders of Women" The read
ing was taken from the book of that
title by Mrs. Dehey
The various kinds of vOcations were
explained by her and she showed that
these orders of virgins who have con-
secrated their lives TO God and to the
work of religion and education can
be traced back to the third century.
And the first formal order was estab-
lished in the early part Of the 18th
century.
Today" says Mrs. Dehey. we are
so matter of fact we take for granted
the religious vocation believing that
knowing one we know them all. AS
we consider them business esta blish-
ments we criticise them as such, not
remembering the sacredness of these
nuns who have left all TO perform
their work for heavenly gain"
Among the first orders in the Unit
ed States were Ursuline nuns estab-
lished in New Orleans in 1927. One
Of the most interesting of the later
orders is Mother Kathcrin Drexers
order in Philadelphia; also Mother
Rose Hawthorne Lathrop, known as
Mother Alphonsa, who with her col
leagues have devoted their lives to
the relief of incurable cancer. They
are known as the Dominican nuns.
