ANNE DE BEAUPRE, Que- bec, July 25—Catholic pilgrims from all parts of the United States and Can- a poured in to this town of miracles today, to be present for the greatest day of the year at the famous shrine of Ste. Anne, the feast of Ste. Anne, on July 26, when, according to veri- fied records, preserved by the priests charge, miraculous cures of the sick reach their height. Pilgrims who have not visited the shrine in the last three years found a great change, for in March, 1922, the magnificent basilica which housed the shrine was destroyed by flames. The sacred relic, a part of the arm of Ste. Anne, was saved, however, and re- poses in a temporary structure pend- ing erection of a great new basilica, which is now planned. And it is for the sake of this relic | that the maimed, the halt and the blind have come to Ste. Anne de Beaupre for years. Each year brings additional testi- monials from persons who have been helped at the shrine, these testimo- Drastic Reduction Summer Wash Goods 50c Printed Voile 39 in. wide.
