13ootf ANNIVERSARY OF GREAT
INSTITUTION.

Though the exact date of the foun-
dalton is not definitely known, it is
thought that the present year may be
that of the booth anniversary of the
foundation of monastic school which
has doomed large in the ancient his
tory of Cork, Ireland.
The monastic School of Cork had a
great reputation in its day, especially
in the seventh and eighth centuries.
The founder of the school and diocese
of Cork was Barra or Barre (Ba$y),
who was commonly known as Fin
barr the Fair-haired..'
His family was of the Hy Brinin
Ratha, tribe which lived on the east
ern shore of Tough Corrib, in County
Galway. His father was worker in
brass, and was forced to migrate to
Hy Latham, in the western part of
County Cork. 1t was there that the
Saint was born, at about the middle
of the sixth century.
With the aim of perfecting himself
in the science of the Saints, Barra re-
tired to hermitage on a small island
of the lake which still bears his name
-Gougane Barra 1t is believed that
from there Barra returned to his ma
tive region, where he founded churches
before iheeestabIished himself near the
Marsh of Lough Eirc lEirce). This

FATHER DAMlEN-FRlEND OF
LEPERS.

For unselfiSh devotion and self-sac.
rifice for the welfare of others, the
example set by Father Damien, the
missionary to the 1eper settlement at
Molokai, in the. Hawaiian Islands, has
hardly parallel in the history of the
Church in modern times. The most
loathsome aspects of human misery
and misfortune furnished the field for
his labors in the cause of the Church,
and he entered this field voluntarily
and at the sacrifice of brilliant pros
poets along other lines of endeavor in
his chosen vocation.
He was born at Tremeloo, Belgium,
January 81 1840, the son of a small
farmer living near that place. His
secular name was Joseph de Veuster.
With the idea of preparing the young
man for success in commercial pro-
fession, his father sent him to col
lege at Braine-le- Comte, but as a re-
suit of mission given by the Redemp-
florists in 1858, Joseph decided to
study for the priesthood. After study
ing for three years in the novitiate of
the Fathers of the Sacred Heart OF
Jesus and Mary at Louvain, he was
sent to the mission in the Hawaiian
Islands, although still in minor orders
at the time. His ordination took place
in Honolulu, May "a, 1864.
Upon his arrival in Hawaii, his at.
tention was attracted by the leper set
Element maintained by the govern.
ment on the neighboring island OF
Molokai. and with the permission OF
his Bishop, he decided to devote his
life to serving the victims of this dis.
ease. MAY 10, 1873, he arrived at the
leper settlement as it's resident priest
and began his labors among the SIX
hundred persons who at that time
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1921-05-21

made up the settlement. In addition
to his endeavors to bring spiritual aid
and comfort into the lives of the af-
fiicted, he also rendered such medical
service as his facilities permitted. At
that time the government was unable
to provide the settlement with either
resident physicians or nurses and the
sufferings of those victims whose af-
Fiction had reached the advanced
stages in which they are no longer
able to care for themselves, have been
described as more cruel than can be
imagined. Father Damien's efforts
did much to relieve the distress OF
these persons.
After twelve years among the lep-
ers. the devoted missionary discovered
the first signs of the dread disease in
his own person, but he continued his
labors unabated for three years long
err. April Is, 1888, he died, a victim of
the disease whose ravages among 9th
ers he had fought for fifteen years.
Father Damien's work attracted
widespread attention and admiration
in both Catholic and non-Catholic cir
cles. Insinuations regarding the pro-
priety of his relations with members
of the leper colony, which were later
proved to have been based upon a mis-
understanding of conditions, called
forth Robert Louis Stevensons famous
philippe against the Rev. DR.. Hyde
in which the character of the Apostle
of the Lepers is defended and vindi'
| Gated.

May reigns again in Winters stead,
And earth is drunk with her new
wine.
Her train, just risen from the dead,
Grass-blade, tree, shrub and running
vine,
Clad in her livery of green
A litany of beauty tread;
And in your honor, Heavenly Queen,
The bead-roll of her days is said.
Mother of God, her feet have sped
To bring you treasure, cen as they
That long since by the star were led,
Brought Jesus, Graded in the hay.
Her gold on spray and blossom looms,
In cups of purple, white and red;
BY orchard boughs, and lilac plumes
Her frankincense, her myrrh Is spread.
Oh, would their bloom might never
shed
Nor ever suffer change or mar;
But by such sun and dew be fed
AS those of Heavens closest are.
But since this may not come to pass,
Stoop to our love when these have
fed;
"A poor, frail flower Of the grass,
That lifts to you Its Wistful head.

A BROADMINDED SAINT

Mrs. Bennett had read aloud until
her eyes were tired and her sweet old
voice had grown husky, when light
step sounded on the veranda, and she
hastily closed the book and laid it
aside. Leaning over her daughter she
stroked her forehead lovingly. Il
must go now, Marguerite, DEAR" she
said. Il have something to do.
Perhaps you will fall asleep, as you
often do in the afternoon
you always have something to do,
and / get SO lonely here by myself"
Marguerite fretted, with the irritable
ty of an invalid whom suffering has
made selfish and eXacting.
Perhaps you can fall asleep her
mother repeated cheerfully, as she
placed glass of fresh water on the
table beside the bed; and without CIV
ing Marguerite an opportunity to make
any reply she hurried from the room
and closed the door behind her.
BY this time the front door had
been softly opened and closed, and
when Mrs. Bennett reached the pref
ty, speckless, little parlor her husband
was hanging his overcoat in the hall
A moment later he came into the
room on tiptoe, and after kissing her
cheek took two-months-old magazine
from the table and quietly stole across
the room to chair near the window.
There was no need for Mrs Ben
nett to ask If he had succeeded; his
sad face was answer enough. She
thought of nothing comforting or en-
couraging to say which she had not
already repeated a score of times,
and could only stand looking at his
bent head with wealth of sympathy
