A NOLOKA| NUN
LEPER ATTENDANT ON FIRST
VACATION IN THIRTY
FOUR YEARS.

After thirty-four years of service in
the leper colony on the island of Molo-
kai, in the southern Pacific, Sister M.
Leopoldina of the Franciscan Order
is now on a vacation trip to this
country. She expects to return to
her leper charges in a few months
and spend the remainder of her years
there.
Thirty-six years ago Sister Leo
po1dina joined the order, and, at the
outset, desired to go to the leper
colony. She was permitted to go after
two years. For fifteen years she
never left the colony at the foot of a
steep mountain.
On her first trip she went to Hon
olulu to dentist. Four years later
she again went to Honolulu. Save
for those and her present trip to this
country she has never left the colony
The lepers live in cottages and are
forbidden to climb over the mountain
which separates them from other
inhabitants of the island. Once a
week provision boat arrives with
food, although the lepers raise most
of their provisions themselves. The
mail arrives twice weekly.

deaux, to secure supplies for the sol
diers when the machine in which he
was riding was struck by a train. Both
legs were amputated and he died a
few days later in one of the camp
hospitals. Everything possible was
done to save his life, but after a gal
liant struggle he succumbed, perfectly
resigned to the will of God. He was
good soldier and gained the love
and respect of all who came in con
tact with him and who grieved at
his sudden death.
The body was removed to the Cattle
dral at Bordeaux, where a Solemn
Requiem Mass was celebrated by the
K. of C. chaplain, Rev. G. Haelter
man. Rev. N. A. Cronin, U. S. A.
and Rev. G. Jones, U. S. A, were
deacon and sub-deacon, respectively
Rev. James Morning, U. S. A, anc

tiers of ceremonies, Knights of Colum
| bus secretaries acted as pallbearers
and American soldiers formed the
guard of honor The body, draped il
an American flag, was inferred in The
U. S. A., section of the cemetery a

MINNIE APOLIS.

League of Catholic Women: The
program last Monday evening was
typical of the course of lectures being
given here. Miss Gratia Countryman,
chief librarian of the city, spoke on
Library Methods and Reverend J. A.
Kern, pastor of the Italian Church,
gave the Viewpoint of a Foreign-Born
Race Leader.
Miss Countryman described the
function of the public library as a
propaganda for education. The speak
er told of the activities of the library
workers in one hundred and seventy
centers in the city of Minneapolis.
The district and the federal courts aid
the librarians in finding those who
have taken out their first papers"
for citizenship; books on foreign
languages are gotten into the homes
by means of the children, visitors go
directly to the homes of the foreign
born and find various ways to get
them interested in the library book
shelves.
Father kern's discourse was full of
surprising lights on the ideas and
modes of life among the five foreign
nationalities among whom he has
done missionary work in this country.
He described his own strange and un-
usual predicament when he first ar
rived on the prairies of North Dakota
with loads of learning and not word
of English. The speaker took up
three questions of great interest to
the foreign-born population just now.
To the cry of the selfish, Stop i'm
migration" he would reply it is the
foreigner that has built up the coun-
try, it's railroads, it's mines, it's fac
tories To the impatient question,
"Why doesn't the foreigner learn the
language of the country promptly
Father Kern answers: because he is
often forced into the life of the
pioneer without schools or the Oppor
tunity to learn even though he might
have the good will. Regarding the
suppression of the foreign press
Father Kern says the government has
1t sufficiently under control already
and there are many who have nc
other current literature. Father Kerr
gave an instructive survey of his work
among the Italians of Minneapolis anc
gave enthusiastic praise to the worl
that Mrs. Barry has been directing il
the settlement house.
The speakers engaged for Monda!
evening, August IS, are DR.. Alfred E
Koenig, secretary of the Minneapolis
Council of Americanization, and Rev
T. E. Cullen, pastor of the Pro-Cath
edral
