 Graymoor, July 26-With three full months of the pilgrimage sea- son still ahead of them, the Gray moor Friars are buisly making preparations to meet the heavy pil- grimage traffic that will wend its way to the great National Shrine of St. Anthony atop Atonement Mount at Graymoor, Garrison, New York from now until the last pilgrimage, October 29th.
 Each Sunday finds greater throng of pilgrims gathered at the Shrine to pay their annual visit and place their petition before the altar of the wonder-worker Saint of Pa duda. For many of them it is their second and even third visitation.
 From the city of Waterbury comes the greatest number of pilgrims in proportion to other cities of its size in New England. Almost every week one or more groups of faithful Graymoor clients visit the Friars at their beautiful Monastery home and 1t is pleasure filled with grat- itude for the Friars to find so many loyal and faithful friends.
 The friends of Graymoor in Wa terbury are numerous, and it is at this time that the Graymoor Friars extend their welcoming invitation to the people of this city to join the great St. Anthony Legion conclave at Graymoor, Sunday August 18th. The Friars wish sincerely that their Waterbury St. Anthony Legion naires will join with amlost 17,000 other Legionnaires from New Eng land and the Middle Atlantic area in this great pilgrimage.
 Special outdoor masses will be celebrated upon the arrival of each contingent of Legionnaires. Extra preparations are being made in the great eating pavilion to handle as conveniently and efficiently as pos- sible all persons who wish to eat their diner while at the Mountain.
 The St. Anthony Legion, was in- stituted in 1887 by the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement for the spiritual benefit of the thousands of patrons of the wonder worker Saint o Padua who are constantly seeking his aid daily. The legion is dedi- cated to the work of supporting and providing education for young men desiring to study for the missionary priesthood in the Society of the Atonement and for the extension of the Friars work among their mis- sions.
