SHRINE LONG HAS BEEN NOTED PLACE St. Anne's in Canada Dates Back to Rarly Days Washington, D. C. Dec. 10— Burning of the temporary basilica at the village of Sainte Anne de Beaupre, Quebec, aroused wide- spread interest. In recent years the shrine of Sainte Anne has attracted thousands of pilgrims and tourists from all over the United States and Canada. Sainte Anne was an honored shrine of the French-Canadians of Quebec before some of the thirteen American colonies were founded but within the last few years it has be- come a Lourdes of America. Hidden From Steamship View. The village of Sainte Anne on the Beaupre coast lies 26 miles down the river from Quebec. Unfortunate- ly the village is not within view from liners sailing to Montreal and Quebec, because it lies behind the Isle of Orleans. The main ship channel of the St. Lawrence i{s on the opposite side of the long is- land. Yet the origin of the Sainte Anne shrine is definitely linked with the ships that sailed the St. Lawrence. French-Canadians cherish the leg- end of a tiny ship manned by Bret- en sailors that was tossed about in a bad St. Lawrence storm. In Brit- tany they were accustomed to pray to their patroness, Sainte Anne, so now in dire peril of shipwreck they prayed to her.. They promised, if they were saved from the fury of the storm to build a-sanctuary at the spot where they should land. Their boat kept afloat during the night and when morning dawned the sailors reached shore at Petit Cap. True to their vow they raised the chapel for which the village is now named, Sainte Anne de Beaupre. The visitor sees that Sainte Anne is still regarded as a speclal pro- tector of sailors. Most of the flag poles fn the village with booms like a ship’s mast. Houses That Seem to Peer. A trip along the Cote Beaupre to Sainte Anne is like no other in Amerfca. One leaves upper Quebec passing through lower Quebec to | difficult to are equipped | cross the St. Charles river where Jacques Cartler anchored his ships in 1635. In Limoilou, a suburb, is the beginning of the Beaupre road. All the way to Sainte Anne the habitant houses crowd close to the road. They are steep-roofed cdttages on the old Norman French model. Dormer windows like eyes in the roof give each house a quality of intelligence and interest in all that passes. The houses stand at the front of the long narrow farms which are usually 150 to 250 feet wide and a mile or two {n length. Sainte Anne {tself is fat with ho- tels. They congest the narrow streets. They crowd in upon the numerous religlous butldings. Booths | selling tiny shrines, mementos and trinkets usurp sections of the mar- row sidewalks. The main street of Sainte Anne on a warm Sunday is as navigate as Broadway at 5 p. m. The temporary basilica which re- cently burned stood beside the main road. Over and beyond its modestly high roof rose the bare skeleton of the new bascllica under construction The new basilica has cathedral di- mensions; It may follow Old World designs but-it is made with New World strength. Two years ago it was a steel cathedral with the wind using its beams and bars for organ pipes. Today it has a two-story skirt of solld rock. Soon even steel ribs of the roof will disappear under a more comely covering. There will be no further fear of fire when it is ready. Over what is to be the main door of the new basilica stands the large statue of Sainte Anne. The patron saint has her back on the busy scene of construction behind. For the three years she has stood there, her calmness {n contrast with the rau- cous riveting and screeching of winches. This statue of Sainte Anne stood over the entrance to the old basilica which was destroyed by fire in 1922, The blaze gutted the inside of the church but the statue did not fall. ‘When the fire was out Sainte Anne still stood presiding over the ruins. The Sights of the Town. There are many things to see at | Sainte Anne de Beaupre. There is the Cyclorama, the round building entirely devoted to an enormous painting of the closing events in Jesus' life on earth. The painting was made under the direction of Paul Philippotaux who also did the Battle of Gettysburg and the Siege of Paris. Then there is the Mem- orlal Church built on the site of the NEVER REVEALED N BUT ONCE —the recipe now used by more women than any other in America Years ago the cooking secret of a plantation mammy— Today the most widely used recipe in the world. Down South before the Civil War the fame of Aunt Jemima’s light, ten- der pancakes spread to other planta- tions far and near. But no other cook could equal their wonderful flavor. Todaymillions of women are serving golden-brown, fragrant cakes just like Aunt Jemima’s own. After the Civil War, with her mas- ter dead and the old manse deserted, Aunt Jemima finally consented to disclose her secret. Down the river by steamboat came the representative of a milling company to buy the recipe for her wonderful dakes. Today her own ingredients, propor- tioned exactly as she used them, come to you ready-mixed in Aunt Jemima Pancake Flour. Itis the only way to have these light, fluffy pancakes with her old-time plantation flavor. Watch your family cheer up when they get their first taste of Aunt Je- mima’s cakes.

The hill is a long one, extending from the Children’s Home to Norden street. The sled on which the boy was rid- ing started to cross Shuttle Meadow avenue just as the bus reached the intersection. Fortunately the boy id not fall under the heavy vehicle, |since the sled is said to have struck one of the wheels. Had he gone beneath the wheels he would have met with sure death. The hill is very popular with the children, although there is a great deal of danger, due to the fact that Shuttle Meadow avenue, which lies at the bottom is a heavily travelled road. A slight accldent occurred last {evening when a machine driven by Raymond O'Neil of 418 Farming- ton avenue, struck John Pietrazew- ski of 41 Allen street, who was coasting on the street. The boy was not seriously hurt. O'Neil re- ported the occurrgncé to the police.
