TWO SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AT
SAINT CLARA COLLEGE,
sINsINAWA, WIS.

In special program given on May
7th, Saint Clara paid honor and spoke
God-speed to her old and valued
friend, Bishop German, on the eve of
his departure for Boise City. With
characteristic spirit the student body
entered into the celebration and the
program was one of exceptional artis.
tic finish and distinction. At it's close
the Right Reverend Bishop gave his
blessing to the Sisters and students.
During the past week the college
was privileged to welcome Mrs. Isabel
Gorghill Beecher, whose reputation as
a dramatic reader is countrywide.
Her readings from contemporary
poets afforded a delightful evening to
an appreciative audience. On the fol-
lowing morning, Mrs. Beecher ad-
dressed the students on the present
crisis and its responsibilities for each
individual. In this new field of activ.
ity she serves the country's cause
with energetic ability and success.
Her accurate knowledge of the situa-
ton, the deep conviction which spoke
in voice and gesture. and her own
vital, womanly personality combined
to make her appeal eloquent and ef-
fective in a marked degree-a VERT
able trumpet-call to high purposes and
unselfish service.

Britain fully occupied. One of the slo.

Britain fully occupied. One of the slo-
gans of the Allies today is the rights
of small nationalities to settle their
own affairs. Why will not England
practice what she breaches and show
the world that she is in earnest by
allowing Ireland to decide her own
destinies?
In conclusion, my most fervent hope
and prayer is that CONSUMPTION will
not be enforced in Ireland except by
vote of an Irish Parliament. A ter.
rible mistake and injustice have been
perpetrated. 1t now remains to be
seen if the present Cabinet is sufh
GENTLY big enough to acknowledge this
mistake and make honorable amends

ed at later period in recognition of
her bardic genius.
st. Patrick, or rather St. Patricius,
his Roman name, which signifies a
nobleman, lived and labored for many
years after he preached at Tara
Mountains, rivers, lakes, islands and
plains are associated with his name,
and thousands of churches in Ireland
and throughout the world are called
after him, while millions of Ireland's
sons are proud to answer to the glor-
lous name, of Patrick. According to
Nennius, British authority quoted
by Sir Geoffery Heating, st. Patrick
founded in Ireland 355 churches, and
consecrated an equal number of bish-
ops, and of priests, he ordained 5000.
The exact time our apostle founded
the Church of Armagh is a matter of
uncertainty, but st. Patrick loved the
place and he would have chosen to
be laid to rest there, and it was there
he had settled down with a century
of years upon him to prepare for his
last great journey. And there it
seemed to him he would like to make,
what in his faith, he called, the place
of his resurrection, but he would go
where God would send him. It was
not at Armagh. but in Saul, by the
shores of Strangford Tough that the
Sanity Old Man should die. Visions
of the future, clear to the aged seer,
but dim to those to whom he related
them, foretold at once his approach
ing death,-Bridgid, the pearl of
Erin" who had made st. Patrick's
shroud, should go for it now for the
time was short. Full of years, like
the prophets of old in this as in much
more; with the prayers and blessings
of people whom he so often prayed
for and blessed; in a land which he
found in darkness and which he left
to be the brightest jewel of the
church, the old man lay down to die
Borne on the cold March winds the
watchers heard sounds of angelic
notes.-the first notes of that chorus
of praise which should last in Erin as
long as the waves should break OF

Strangford Tough. He died at pa
triarchal age in the Abby of Saul
County Down, founded by himself, A
D. 1913, and the anniversary of his de
parture from this life is celebrated by
Irishmen Of all creeds and in every
land on each 18th day of March, which
is called, in his honor, st. Patrick'e
day.

Now within the century following
the death of the great missionary, the
Druidic rites disappeared from the
land and Green Erin" became known
thenceforth for centuries as the Island
of Saints! Romantic tradition at
tributes to st. Patrick the miracle of
driving all venomous reptiles out of
Ireland. It is certain, however, that
neither snakes nor toads exist upon
her soil, although both are found in
the neighboring island of Great
Britain.

Over 100000 applications for insur-
ance by officers and enlisted men OF
the naval service had been fled by
March 81. The average amount OF
insurance on each policy was about
$1,000, making a total of more than
$1,000, 100000. Payments on war-risk
allotments are now about 100000 a
month.

The pagan king summoned the dar.
ing apostle to his presence, and asked
him concerning his sacred mission
st. Patrick explained it, and having
the royal consent, proceeded to preach
with an eloquence that dazzled king
princes, chiefs and warriors, and cap
tivated some Of the Druid priests. The
Saint having made deep impression
and converted many of high and low
degree, took to baptizing the multi
tude, and tradition says that the beau
tiful River Boyne was the Jordan Of
Ireland's great apostle.

SAINT PATRICK
and HIS NAME
BY Mrs. j. M. Jordan.

patrick means patrician, a noble
name-but Patrick was the name of
Ireland's patron saint If you hate
saints, you will have one motive for
removing all honor from the name of
Patrick. If you hate Ireland, you will
have another powerful motive. So
you begin by getting people to laugh
at Paddy, and, as parents don't like to
have their children's names laughed
at, the spineless ones, the time-serv-
ing ones, will not call their sons Pat.
rick any more, but, well-we shall say
Waldorf or Oswald-names which
mean as much to a Celt as Chin Chin
does to a Bostonian. Nevertheless
the trick works, and little by little the
noble and beautiful and illustrious
name of Patrick disappears, until a
generation arrives that sees through
the contemplate trick and brings
back the prone name into it's old high
honor again."-Cardinal O'Connell.

We have accepted certain time-hon-

NOTED WISCONSIN
INVENTORDL
John F. AppEeby Produced Irvine Bind
er Put on Market in 1878.

Beloit, Wis, Dec. John F.
Appleby inventor Of the Appleby Irvine
binder, whose death occurred in Chi
cago November s, was one of the noted
Wisconsin men who have made great
contributions to the industrial develop
ment of the country. During the de-
cade preceding the Civil War when the
great West was unfolding its riches,
the farmers suddenly realized that the
only limitation upon the output of Their
farms was the inability to harvest
their crops. The Mccormick reaper
had already made its appearance, but
it served only to cut the grain and left
it lying loose upon the ground. Some
device for holding the grain and bind
ing it into sheaves was necessary be-
fore the wheat acreage could be in
creased.
To this task young Appleby turned
his attention. A new type of wire used
in his first binder, produced after years
OF experiment IN a little shop IN Be-
lott proved unsatisfactory, and two
months later the inventor announced
the completion of a Irvine binder. At
ter few more years of labor the bin
der was mounted upon frame. Then
an elevator carrying the grain to tn
binder, packer that kept the bundle
in shape, needle that compressed the
bundle before tying it, and tripping
device that gagged the size of the sheaf
were all completed by this ingenious
inventor In 1873 the machines were
put upon the market, and within few
years their sale ran into the millions.
The original knotter planned by Mr..
Appleby, which is practically identical
with his final invention, is now on ex-
hibit in the museum Of the State His
torical Society in Madison.

C. R. Goldsworthy of Vesper, was
in the city Wednesday on business.
He said it was rumored the big foun-
dry buildings, which were recently
bought by some Madison parties will
soon be converted into a plant for the
manufacture of war materials
Two freight cars, loaded with ship
timber bound for Manitowoc, were side
tracked at the Northwestern yards last
week The cars were in bad order and
required their unloading. The timber
was just as it was cut in the woods of
the west, most of the sticks being as
straight as an arrow and over eighty
feet in length, requiring two fiat cars
to hold them.
After next June, when the new mar
riage law goes into effect, there will be
no chance of springing a marriage sur
prise on an unsuspecting public. The
new law makes it obligatory to post
the names of license applicants. The
new blanks are already in the hands
Of county clerks.

While returning from Rockville
Wednesday, Rev. Thorn, pastor of I'm

an experience that happily had no
worse results than a damaged car.
While driving along at moderate rate
of speed his car skidded on an icy
piece of road and went head-on into
an embankment. One of the forward
wheels was badly shattered.
