St. Patriek's Day

I
The 18th Of March is not so very far
in the offing now. Do you know when
that famous Irish saint was born?
If you do, you know more than the
makers of the encyclopedia for they
say they are not sure, but il was
somewhere about 3S9, and he died
March IL, 461. The legend runs that
when he died there was no night for
IL days.
| The good saint lived in VIVA. is now
England in the days when the Romans
were leaving Britain to its fare of
constant raids by outside tribes. Wild
Irishmen came in and carried Patrick
home as slave. For six years he
served them as swlne-herd. He
escaped to France (then Gaul) and
became monk before returning to
his home in Britain. One night he
had dream of seeing paper marked
1.-THE Voice of the Irish" and hearing
the Irish calling, ave pray thee,
holy youth, to come and walk among
us as before" So he decided to be
missionary, and went back to Gaul
for Ia years preparation for his
work. The Pope blessed him and
sent him to Ireland as a bishop.
There were mo Christians in Ire
land when he began, and no pagans
when he died. it is said. That was
not strictly true, but he did build
many churches and monasteries, and
did much to establish Christianity
there. The land was ruled by fierce
tribal chieftains, as fond of fighting
as the Irish are now, and he worked
among many difficulties. Man, le-
gends grew up about him, including
the one about his chasing all the
serpents into the sea. 1t is a fact
that there are no snakes in the island
now. One tale says that when some
questioned the doctrine of
the Trinity, he held up the shamrock
as an example of the "Three in One"
Undoubtedly his name is the most
beloved among the Irish probably
The reason why every Irish family
mas Pat or two, and the race is
