According to a legend here the island was infested by ants and worms in the year 1536. The ants were es pecially vicious. They invaded the houses and at- inhab- Several infants died from bites. The worms devoured garden produce and horses and cattle starved for lack of grass which de. stroyed by both pests. inquisitor of the Spanish inquisition conferred with the bishop of thi oldest Roman Catholic diocese in the new world, and it was decided to se- lect a particular saint to appeal to for aid in the matter, A meeting of all the prominent clericals of Porto Rico was held and it was decided to leave the selection of the saint to chance. The names of the saints in the cal- endar were written on slips of paper and deposited in a jar. A small boy did the drawing. tacked the itants. Three Times in Succession Thrusting his hand into the jar the youngster produced a slip on which appeared the name of St. Patrich. _ “Who is Saint Patrick?” The cler- ieals asked each other. Some obscure saint, it was agreed, and the name was ut back. Again the name of Saint atrick was drawn. This time a long discussion took place, for the clericals| doubted the power of Suint Patrick and nted a saint better known to rds. Eventually they decided ke one more chance and were astounded to have the now familiar name drawn once more. This third trial settled the matter and special ap- peals were made in the cathedral ask- ing J the aid of Ireland's patron Saint. fter three days, corresponding with the three drawings, came Saint Pat- rick’s answer. Rain commenced to fall and it continued almost steadily for three weeks, washing away both worms and ants and causing grass to spring up in the devastated fields. Then the people did honor to Sui Patrick and celebrated his birthday. , TODAY | ¢— (Coytinued from page one) scientific foundation was concentrat- ed on out diseases, making them impo rather than upon curing individual eases. {the housing problem is like the blem, one of poverty and f po could h and it is rapidly diminishing in this country, with better wages and wider distribution of prosperity, the housing problem would diminish. It would disappear entirely if trans- portation were managed’ primarily for public service, rather than for profit, opening up ‘new territory and low rents. Henry Ford calls the Standard Oil organization, which means the Rocke- fellers, the best managed business concern in the world, There isn’t any doubt that it could spend. a hundred millions producing houses for the crowd at low rents, and make the enterprise profitable. And to make useful work profitable is to interest others in it. Bishop Manning says evolution and the Bible go hand in hand, Darwin's teachings not conflicting with gospel truths. “I accept the theory of evol- ution, and I also believe in revela- tion given to us in the Bible and in its divine inspiration.” That's a wise attitude, for you can't il religion and you certainly can’t Kill science.
