Dies After ost
Remarkable Life

For fifty years the name of Lizzie
McCrosson, who died in Philadelphia
on September IA, and who was widely
known as the Holy woman of the
Blessed Sacrament" had been house
hold word among devout families.
For half a century countless sisters
and other religious in innumerable
converts and communities had spoken
of her with reverence; many were her
friends and had visited her. Priests
of this and neighboring dioceses were
acquainted with her or knew of her.
Seemed Beyond Human Aid.
1t was about fifty years ago, says
the Catholic Standard and Times, of
that city, that Lizzie McCrosson fell
ill, afflicted with a strange malady
which alarmed friends and neighbors
and baffled physicians summoned to
prescribe medical aid. She seemed be-
yond human aid. Experts were called
conveyed to hospitals. They all were
of the one opinion-it was death to
operate upon her. No nourishment
had any effect. The end, they judged
was only matter of days or months.
No human being, it was argued, could
survive such excruciating agony as
/, she endured. No medicines had any
beneficial effect; it was useless to try
| and alleviate the pain.
Then there were great swelling of
| the body, swellings so great that the
body was distended so as to be almost
unrecOgniZable. The arms were
forced into an outstretched position
and the face was obscured.
This continued throughout more
than forty years, even to her very
death almost. The accompanying pain
was such that medical men marveled
that the brain did not give way. Yet
all this did the patient, aging year
by year, bear with the greatest of pa
tience and resignation to the divine
will. Her fortitude was regarded by
many as almost miraculous. 1t seems
impossible, yet on major feast days,
Lizzie told of enduring even greater
suffering, and her death it was re.

The lasting pound, the endless round
of friction and turmoil,
The fetid day, the twilight gray, the
shades of night that fall.
Yet meath the silence of the stars,
voice came over all,
You have dear ones to love you, and
welcome you at home,
A loving God above you, where e'er
your footsteps roam,
A promise of haven upon lasting
shore,
How can you be so craven?
How could you ask for more?"
At times my heart beats lonely as
stray my weary feet
Meath heavy loads DER broken roads
where quit" and courage" meet,
And one says "stay" and one says
may" and indecision stands.
IT'S then upon my brow I feel the
touch of unseen hands
That tenderly caress me and .chide
me for my fears;
AS silently they bless me and brush
aside the tears,
At once my heart grows lighter,
The gloomy hour is DER,
For God hath made it brighter
That l may weep no more.

HOLED TEE Shot IS
REAL FEAT IN GOLF
uoyds Say Odds Are 10000 to

Feat Accomplished by Pierre proai At

Seventeen Years.

When Pierre A. Proal made a hole
In one ut the old Seabright golf curse
some seventeen years ago he tclt that
he had accomplished the feat Of n life
time. Since then Proal, playing regu-
ldrly season after season, has made
thousands of strokes, but not until the
other day ut Rumson did he manage to
coax another tee shot into the hole.
This happened at the short second
hole, only n mashie shot, says n New

Proal played hole after hole with lit

to glance back over the cards to tell
how many chances ut possible one he

How many rounds of golf Proal has

Of course purely n matter OF c%onjec-

know himself. However, he plays quite
regularly and II Is reasonable to as-
sumo he has averaged n couple Of
rounds n week n good deal more than
that In the summer, less In the of sea-

100 rounds n year for seventeen years

ATTENTION PAID TO SPORTS
What Games Have Been Permitted
and Encouraged Have Been
Helpful in Training.

Some people are beginning TO think
that the army Is paying n little too
much attention to sports, but they
are people who are not very sympa-
thetic with sports anyway.
The fact Of the matter Is that so
far as the records that have come 10
my attention disclose no American
army officer has permitted sports to
interfere with the regular military re-
quirements of training, or otherwise.
says a writer In Milwaukee Sentinel.
What sports have been permitted and
encouraged have been helpful to that
purpose.
OF curse now that prominent base-
ball players are getting into the army.
that game has attracted atten-
ton. and there are those who think
that II has been given too much promi-
hence. They simply are worrying
about something that Is not. and some
thing that ought not to scare them.
