OLD MONASTERY CLOSED
AFTER 100 YEARS OF A VARIED
EXISTENCE THE MONASTERY
AT BIG TRACADlE, N. S., CAM
ADA, Is SOLD TO A MONTREAL
CORPORATION AND THE MONKS
RETURN TO FRANCE.

The Trappist Monastery at Big Ira
n. S., Canada, was established by Fa-
Their Vincent Paul, in 1919. Father
Vincent with other Trappists had
been expelled from France and came
to the United States and thence to
Nova Scotia, where he obtained per-
mission from his superiors to found
monastery. He bought site at Big
Tracadie in January, 1919, and four
years later he went to France and
brought back with him four religious,
Later on the institution was placed
under the jurisdiction of Bishop Fras
er, Apostolic Vicar of Nova Scotia
Father Vincent resigned as Superior
and retired to the Sisters convent,
which he has established, where he
died in January, 1853. He was sue
ceeGed by Father Francis Xavier who
interested Abbot Martin of Westmalle
in Belgium in the cause of the mon
astery and who sent several subjects
to Tracadie, as we'll as his own Prior,
Father James, in 1857. Shortly after
his arrival Father James became Su-
perior and received several subjects
from Belgium among them Father Pla-
eide in 1862, and Father Dominique in
1866, who was destined to be the first
Abbot of the monastery.
After trying in vain to establish
other foundations. in Canada and the
United States the monastery was af-
filiated to La Grande Trappe in Nor
mandy, and the Bishop of the Diocese
turned over the property to the COM
munity. In 1886 the Trappist Nuns
also turned over their holdings to the
monastery for financial support. In
1871 the General Chapter of the Order
erected the monastery into an abbey
and Father Dominique received the
abbatial blessing on November / from
Bishop Cameron of Antagonist. In
1886 the monastery numbered thirty
six members. In 1892 fire destroyed
the main building and in 1897 the
mills and barns were burned Abbot
Dominique resigned the following year
and returned to Belgium where he
died last January.
The General Chapter entrusted the
care of the monastery to Abbot An
tome of La Trappe, at Okla, near Mon
treal, who appointed Father Murphy
Superior. Lack, of subjects and re-
sources left the monastery in a pre-
cariOus condition and in 1901 the prop
erty was purchased by the Abbot of
Our Lady, of Thymadenc, Brittany,
France, who sent thirteen monks
under the guidance of Father Eugene
to take possession of it. When the
war broke out in 1914, nine members
of the community had to return to
France to join the colors. Early in
1918, the Superior in France seeing
there was no hope of making the mon
astery self-sustaining decided to dis
pose of it and the property was sold
to a Catholic corporation of the city
of Montreal, thus ending one hundred
years of effort to establish success
| full Trappist monastery on Nova Scot
ian soil. The members of the com
munity will return to France at the
end of this month

SCOTCH CHURCH GROWS

The spread Of Catholicity in Scot
land is matter for congratulation, as
is evidenced by the statistics pub
lished in the Western Catholic Cal
endar," which is just out. The Catho.
lies Of the Archdiocese of Glasgow
now number 100000; the baptisms
during 1917 were close on $4,000, while
the school population is almost $4,000.
There are 120 schools, including ten
centers for higher education. There
are four industrial schools, one refor-
matory, an orphanage, two certified
institutions for children who are men,
tally deficient or blind, deaf or dumb;
in all, there are seventeen charitable
institutions.
The priests Of the Archdiocese now
number 500, while there are ninety
three missions and 1876 churches, chap
els and stations.
The latest undertaking in the Arch
diocese is the providing of Fresh Air
Fortnight for Catholic children.

ilica, designed by Pugin, which was

basilica, designed by Pugin, which was
erected entirely from the pence con-
tributed by the peasants and towns
folk all over the countryside, at cost
considerably over $125,000. Around
this stately basilica and it's village
was an outer ring of fourteen chapels,
consisting each of a station of the
Cross, while forming kind of inner
circle, were seven beautiful little chap
els, dedicated to the seven dolours of
our Blessed Lady. The baSilica itself,
with it's spire and two fine towers,
dominated the countryside for miles
and enshrined a miraculous statue of
Our Lady, found many years ago in a
field near by.
In the first week of September, 1914,
there were ten thousand communions
in the Church Of Dadizeele, every one
coming to pour out anxious prayers at
the feet of the Virgin, as the tide Of
war advanced. Alas, it reached and
overwhelmed this beautiful and pious
work, which had only been completed
a few years. The church, which stands
close to the famous Chateau de Mont
morency, is now mere shell, it's
walls riven with explosions, it's towers
in ruins, the chapels are destroyed,
and in most cases level with the
ground Only the miraculous statue
has escaped, being taken by the Nuns
with them in their flight, and con-
cealed in a convent in another part OF
Flanders.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in, overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highests for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for ~
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paner.-Adv.
