Xavier was appointed to eyangelize
the people of the East Indies. He
spent some three years preaching to
the people of Western India, reaching
as far as the island of Ceylon. He set
out for Japan, where he did great
evangelizing work. He planned an ex

st. Teresa of Jesus was remark
able heroine of the spiritual life. She
was born at Avila in Old Castillo
March %, 1915. She decided to adopt
the religious life and left to enter the
Carmelite Convent of the Incarnation
at Avila, taking the religious Habit.
Wide interest came to center in the
reports that God had given her intel

manifestations in which the exterior
senses were in no way affected, the
things seen and the words heard be-

and consoling her in trouble.
The account of her spiritual life,
which is contained in the Life Writ

and in the Interior Castle" makes one
of the most remarkable of spiritual
biographies. ST. Teresa founded a
convent of Discalced Carmelite Nuns
of the Primitive Rule of st. Joseph at
Avila, and established her nuns at
many places. Her position among
writer's on mystical theology is con-
sidered unique.

poise.
But we have all too many pariahs
amongst US. We have too many who
carry themselves as if they felt they
possessed no right to act any other
than drum beater's part toward their
fellow citizens. These latter may en-,
ter the temple of civic equality to wor-
ship as becometh free men, but the
satisfied pariahs must remain without

delighted if they are acknowledged as
approaching the human level. Instead
of compelling equal treatment by their
outspoken Christian manhood or wOm-
anhood, they try to win it by obse'
quiousness in one or other form. In
stead of making everyone else apollo
gize for his lack of Catholicity, they
are ready to give cringing explanation
of that priceless heritage.
The contributing causes of this sor-
ry debasement are many. Secular up
bringing, overmuch association with
non Catholics and social or business
ambitions might be enumerated. But
the principal cause, we feel, is an i'll
appreciation of what it means to be a
Catholic in name and deed.

Assisting deyoutly at Mass, you rem
der to the Sacred Humanity of Our
Lord the greatest homage.
He supplies for many of your negli-
gences and omissions.
He forgives you all the venial sins
which you never confessed.
The power of Satan over you is di-
'minished.
You afford the, souls in Purgarory
the greatest possible. relief
One Mass heard during your life
will be of more benefit~to you than
many heard for you after your death.

MOTHER. MARY EUPHRASiA, GOOD
SHEPHERD sFouNDREsS. -,

T@ Mother Mary Euphrasia, Foundress
of the Sisters of the Good Shepherd,
was born July 81, 1896, on the island
of Noirmoutier, France She received
in baptism the name of Rose Virginia.
In 1914, she entered the community of
"The Refuge" at Tours, and made her
profession in 1916, taking in place OF
Rose Virginia Pelletier the name of
Mary ST. Euphrasia. .3:s
DESTROYS of extending the benefits OF
her order to the very extremities of
the earth, she clearly saw that a cen,
trail government, a Mother House,
should be established, but it was only
after a long discussion and much OPP
position that the Brief in approval OF
the house at Anglers, which she had
founded, was issued by Pope Gregory
XVI, April 8, 1885. The house was
authorized to send it's Sisters to all
parts of the world. The official title
of the institute is "Our Lady of Char
ity of the Good Shepherd of Angers.'
For thirty-three years, Mother Mary
Euphrasia was Mother-General of the
Good Shepherd, and at her death,
April 29; 1858, she left 2,067 protested
Sisters, 3S4 novices, 800 Touriere Sis
ters, 962 "magdalens," 6,372 'peni-
tents" and S,4S3 children of various
classes. One hundred and ten con-
vents had been founded and sixteen
provinces established in France, Bel
gium, Holland, Rome, Italy, Germany,
Austria, England, Scotland, Ireland,
Asia, Africa, the United States, and
Chile. ;5%.ss;s
The cause of the beatification of
Mother Euphrasia, was inscribed by
the postulator, November II, 1885, and
the preliminary examination was ter
minated in $780, The Pope received
numerous supplications from Cardi-
nails, Archbishops, Bishops, several ca
thedral chapters, rectors of colleges
and universities, hundreds of priests,
and many noble families, begging him
to dispense with the ordinary ten
years interval required before the
continuation of the cause.
December IL, 1897, Pope Leo XIII
declared her Venerable" and the
news was received with great joy
throughout the world and especially in
all the converts of the Good Shep-
herd.
The order founded by Mother Eu-
phrasia has many houses in the United
States, and it's work on behalf of the
young girls committed to it's care by
their guardians or by the courts has
been recognized publicly on many oc.
casions.

EXILE OF 200 YEARS ENDS FOR
IRISH NUNS. -

The return of the Irish Benedictne
Nuns to their own land, after an ex-
lie of more than two hundred years, is
being hailed with great satisfaction

where they have acquired the beautiful
castle of Kylemore, near Galway. This
edifice, erected fifty years ago by

aire, promises to be a center from
which the spirit of the ancient educa:
tional and artistic traditions of the
Benedictines, adapted to modern life,
will radiate throughout the west OF
Ireland.
The property acquired by the order,
at the cost OF about 100000, extends
over 10000 acres. The greater part of
it will be sold and distributed to the
poor people of Connemara. 1t COM

band of nuns had originally establish

Dublin in 1887 but the revolution and
subsequent penal laws had compelled
them to flee their native land and set

stood for more than two and a half
centuries before being battered to
ruins by the shells of the contending

FIVE GREAT ANNIVERSARIES.

Next year there will occur the three
hundredth anniversary of the raising
to the honors of the altar of five great
Saints Of the Church.
1t was on March II, 1922, that Pope
Gregory XIV raised to the honors of
the altar ST. Ignatius Loyola, ST. Fran
els Xavier, ST. Philip Neri, ST. Isidore
Agricola and st. Teresa of Jesus.
In preparation for the fetes which
are to be held in honor of the third
centenary of the canonization of st.
Teresa, the General of the Discalced
Carnelites has addressed a circular
to his Order concerning the event.
st. Ignatius Loyola was the great
founder of the Society of Jesus, whose
life story is one of the epics in the
annals of conversions and spiritual
life in comparatively modern days. In
view of the existence of his Order in
a fiourishing condition through almost
all parts of the world, the anniversary
may be expected to have almost
worldwide celebration and interest.
Great Missionary.
st. Francis Xavier has been con-
sidered the greatest missionary since
the times of the Apostles. He was a
contemporary and companion of st.
Ignatius Loyola in the early days of
the Society of Jesus. st. Francis en,
tered the College de Sainte-Barbe,

already planning the foundation of the

been completely destroyed. Suffering

keep my mind clear of such thoughts,
but in unguarded moments they forced
themselves upon me, and more than
once found myself dwelling on them
against my will.
The sun had gone down behind the
mountains and light was merging rap
idly into gloom. The zig-zag path I
was obliged to follow was difficult to

answered. 81 don't think we're in any

me they're going to raid the other side

"But why should they assemble on
this side for that purpose?"
'The bridges on the other side have
been blown up and they're using this
side as sort of base''
So still the night was that now and
again we could hear them moving
about on the road fully quarter of
mile higher up the mountain. Pres
emily, some desultory firing broke out,
and drunken cries filtered down to
where we lay. In the lull which fol-

"Time we were moving, comrade,' -
he whispered. Keep your head down
and follow me-"
We crept on all fours a distance of
several hundred yards before we came
to halt on the high bank of noun
tain stream. Here my companion
picked up two pieces of stone and
struck them together once, twice,
thrice. A whistle, not unlike the call
of curlew, came from somewhere be-
meath us.
| "All serene" my guide announced.
| There's a cave here that has served
us well in the past, and there's no
| reason why it should not serve us well
| tonight. The entrance is so cunningly
concealed that very few are aware of
it's existence. Of course, my home is
only about mile away, but daren't
go near it while the soldiers are
around
AS he spoke, he lowered his hand
over the side and turned back heavy
fringe of heather which hung over the
mouth of the cave.
