RED CROSS NURSES
FOUNDED By ST. CAMlLLUS 800
YEARS AGO-HE is PATRON
OF ALL NURSES.

The order of Red Cross nurses was
founded over three hundred years ago
by the Hospital Saint" Camillus de
Lellis, to whom Pope Sixtus V grant
ed permission to use red cross as
the distinguishing mark on the garb
of the society of nurses which he
had founded. The idea of this badge
of the Red Cross originated in a
dream which Camilla Compelia de
Lellis, the mother of Camillus, had
before he was born. In that dream
she saw a child with red cross On
his breast, followed by other children
with similar emblems on their
breasts. For his work as nurse and
as an organizer of society of nurses,
and for the reforms and improve
ments in the care of the sick which
he brought about, both in hospitals
and on battlefields, he was canoniZed.
On June %, 1886, Pope Leo XIII pro-
claimed him the patron saint of
nurses, whether they wore Red
Cross badge or not.

COMPLIMENT TO K. OF c.
ENGLISH ARMY BISHOP PAYS
THEM HIGH TRIBUTE.

The English Catholic Army Bishop,
Mgr. Keatinge, who as Episcopus Cas-
trensis holds the rank of brigadier
general, paid high compliment to
the war work of the Knights of Co
lumbus, at the annual dinner of the
London Catenians at which Cardinal
Bourne and some Of the Dominion's
statesmen were present. Responding
to the toast Of "The Guests Mgr
Keatinge said that they had all heard
about the Knights of Columbus, and
they all knew the splendid work done
by the Knights during the war.
The American government, the
Bishop went on, had not done a very
great deal in the matter of sending
chaplains overseas; but whatever that
government had done was very con-
siderably supplemented by the mag
nificent endeavors of the Knights of
Columbus, who had made themselves
responsible not only for field workers,
but for the maintenance of field chap
lains also. Applying the lesson near
er home, Mgr. Keatinge said that if
there were ever another war and he
were still army bishop, he hoped the
Catenians would do as much for their
own people as the knights of Column
bus had done for the American Cath.

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
THROUGH APPEAL TO OUR LADY
OF LOURDES.

What Miss Kathleen Mcmillan, of
Torquay, England, piously regards as
her miraculous escape from death at
the hands of a negro, who first lev
eled a revolver at her and then killed
himself, is being related by her and
her friends. Miss Mcmillan ascribes
her immunity from the Negroes insane
attack to the intervention of Our Lady
Of LOurdes. In addition to this pro-
lection, Miss Mcmillan declares that
she has been cured of lupus follow
ing visit to Lourdes.
Miss Mcmillan was in q hotel in
Soho when three persons were shot
dead by the negro. She declares that
the man approached her and pointed
pistol directly at her, evidently with
the intention of killing her.
LAS | faced the weapon all | could
say to myself was, Our Lady of LOur-
des, help me-" Miss Mcmillan told her
mother. The negro frowned, turned
the revolver against himself an in
slant later and sent a bullet into his
left temple" Miss Mcmillan said
A specialist in skin diseases has
pronounced Miss Mcmillan complete
ly cured of the lupus. Both she and
her mother urge that the story of her
escape and her cure be given the
widest currency.

THE BELGIAN QUEEN
QUEEN ELIZABETH PRESENTS
MONKS WITH CHALlCE.

Queen Elizabeth of Belgium recently
visited the Benedictine monks of
Maredsous Abbey to present to them
rare work of art, superb chalice
in Gothic style, as souvenir of her
sojourn within the monastery pre-
cincts during Holy Week of last year
The knob of the chalice is orna-
mented with fine pearls and around
the base are worked several figures
in enamel, representing the patron
saints of different members Of the
royal family. There is also deli
cately wrought filagree work in the
shape Of shamrocks, the national en-
blem of Ireland, which appears on the
Abbot's coat-of-arms.
The Belgian shield holds the place
of honor on the base, encircled by
chiseled roses symbolizing st. Eliza
beth, the Queens patron. Her
Majesty inspected the School Of Arts
and Crafts attached to the monastery
and displayed great interest in the
various church ornaments, sculptures
and the bookbinding and embroidery
in the process of execution.

CENTENARY OF FAMOUS
CHARITY
SICK POOR SOCIETY OF IRELAND
CELEBRATES EVENT IN
CORK.

One hundred years ago few work
men returning from Mass in the Ca
thedral, Cork, chatted on the dire dis
tress then prevalent and the want and
suffering endured by the sick poor of
Ireland. For the relief of those suf-
ferers they decided to establish the
Sick Poor Society. The centenary of
this society has just been celebrated
by Solemn High Mass at the Cork
Cathedral. Most Reverend DR.. Coma
Ian was the preacher on the occasion.
He said: "The canoniZed and the beat
flied do not exhaust the number of
Saints. The centenary we celebrate is
a monument and memorial to poor
men of extraordinary charity, of true
Gospel or Christian charity. 1t was
not by mere pagan humanitarianism
that the founders Of the Sick Poor So
ciety were actuated, nor were they
simply guided by kindly sentiment of
relieving suffering wherever found.
Their charitable work and the society
established rested on the two great
principles: Christian charity, and the
fatherhood of God, intensified by our
joint incorporation and fellowship in
the mystic body of Christ"
Through the famine. through the
smallpox, influenza and other epidem-
les the society labored unselfshly, say
ing thousands of lives.
