Non Catholic Writes
Life of St. Francis

Francis gives up his life and
possessions amid the ridicule
of his father and townsmen.
He dons the sarb Of tunie
and cord and sets out 10 serve
God, working among lePsrs
and preaching 10 fhe people
He Is soon Joined by fwo COM
paniens, 9 lawyer and . rich
businessman, who, too, wish re-

They have as their Rule
three Gospel texts, teaching
them poverty and sacrifice.
The number of followers soon
increases to twelve, and each
is so adequately described in
the book that we learn to
know and love them as Fran
els did.

ual wisdom and simplicity of
Francis, their brother.
In 1912, Clare, a rich girl
of Assist, wished to follow
the Rule of Francis, and
founded a sisterhood based on
prayer and poverty. They
were called the Poor CIares
and the order has come down
to our present day.
At this time also, the broth
erhood increased to such
numbers that they formed a
monastic body and said the di-
vine office and slept and ate
in common.
Their work Of self-sacrifice
spread far and wide, and even
though faced with many hard
ships, their love of God never
wavered. In response to per-
sistent pressure, Francis wrote
a more detailed Rule and re-
celved a papal approval from
Honorius III in 1923.

Francis sf This iima was
broken In health, and soon af-
forward he retired into the
mountains where on Sept. IA,
l224, he experienced . snys-
terious v~isifsfion that left the
marks Of the Sacred Wounds
OF Christ on his body.
These remained until his
death and caused acute physi-
cal suffering. In 1924 Fran
els wrote the "Canticle of the
Sun" and in 1925 his Short
Testament, which repeated
with solemn emphasis, abso-
Lutte poverty and obedience to
the Rule, and the refusal Of all
privileges.
After . last visit 10 Clare
and her sisters, and last
blessing to Assist and his
brethren, ne died on Oct. 3,
1925. Francis was esnonized
swo years later by Gregory TX
and his body was laid in the
crypt Of the great bssiIics in
Assist where il still rests.
My God and My All" serves
as a more than adequate por-
trayal of the great saint. Be
ing non-Catholic has not in
any way hindered Miss
Goudge in her understanding
and admiration for Francis.
Her great respect for his ca
reer of poverty and humility
out of love of God and CHURCH,
is evidence of how much Fran
els has given to people of all
faiths.
Many books have been writ
ten about Francis but none
could be more descriptive and
informative than MY God and

Now that 81 volumes of

To take some examples
from the last dozen titles ap-

Rene Biot's "What is Life"
seems Ito an admitted non
expert in such matters) to be
a fine synthesis of physical
philosophical, and theological
truths. In a progression which
recalls Pascal's MAN is a reed,

AS a former associate of DIR.
Alexis Carrel, DR.. Blot is able
to make use of and describe
many of the latter's expert

this kind of book is useful in
