The Catholic church was not definitely so-called until 1054 when the Western broke off from the Eastern. The Eastern church called itself the Orthodox church Western church adopted the term Catholic . . .which means “Universal.” St. Patrick was not a saint because he was never canonized. He was not an Irishman but a Frenchman, and was born in Tours, France. . hence the name Patricius, or EAT FOR BOARDER, Divorced By Former Mrs. Mackay, NONF f[]R HUSBAND Takes Third Wife, Toronto Nurse Mrs. Montanile Disappears and Physician, 65, Summering In Maine With Bride—Sep- Augerefl S]]UIISB Makes Thieats aration In New York State Became Absolute — Early This Menth. questioning Irishman— a recent and his now known as the Catholic church church and the Hi NS Ant Margueri Montan- comes is going won't hus- when of ind tanile, wife 143 Farmi to New Rrit “put wher hony 24 (A —The New Daily Dr. Joseph N wife, Catherine Ketcham Blake, of Dr. Blake. charging of affections.
