St. Patrick died. but he be- queathed his spirit to his children, & heritage thev have guardéd and pre- served to this day. Tt ie all that is Lleft to them of their aneient glory. The conversion of Ireland, m$ brethren, is one of the mast remark- able: facts in the history of the church. ~ St. Patrick found Irsland pa- gan. He left it Christian. Net a half-hearted faith did he leave it. but a warm, ardent devoted faith, a faith that has been tested by every fiabol- ical ingenuity of men and devils. The conversion of Treland was accom- plished, too, witheut the shedding of one drop of blosd. In all other na- tions the faith had a baptism of blood. The Irish are the anly peopl whose conversion was begun an completed by one man. It eost ne blood. no tears. no sorrow to ity apes- tle. \Their faith came ms naturally to them as the mother tongue to' the child, it became' a second natups, Churches, convents and monasteries were everywhere and évery menas- tery was a university from which multitudes went forth to teach and convert Europse. In 232 - yvears frem 432 to 864 Ireland ‘was the mother of 0 saints, There are 1881 Irish saints on the calendar of the church and 4177 of Irish birth. But St. Patrick not-only made the Irish the most religious nation but he made her alsc the mest learned na- i tion in the world. And the history of the Irish monk is ene of the most glorious pages in the annals of Ire- land. Their monasteries twere nst only throughout the whole island but there wag a network ef them covering urope as wall. In Irslanq there were 184 built in the fifth, sixth and sev- enth centuries, besides there were 12 in Scetland, 13 in FEngland, 38 in France, § in Italy, 13 in Germany, In Norway, and many elsewhere, in all 119 in forelgn countries. The sixth and seventh centuries were the golden age of Ireland and gave to it the name by which it has ever been best known, “The Isle of Saints and Scholars.” So cempletely was the Trish race converted that St. Columbus, writing to the holy see af- ter the death of St. Patrick, could say “among us neither Jew nor schisma tie can be found, but only the Catho- lic faith entire and unshaken as we received it from the successors of the apostles. For three centurles did that faith flourish and there was newhere in the garden of God's church a fair- er flower than the Red Rose or Rosa- lee, the Church of Ireland. Tor three centuries did that sweet little rose bloom and shed its fragrance to every cprner of the earth. Then the sav- age Dane came and tried te kill that flower and we did what no ether peo- ple of Europe was ahle to de. We/ drove him out. Then the fierce North- man came pouring down upen us, and when we found his aim was to crush that beautiful Rese, we hurled him back. Then the fron hand of Bnglish ty- ranny and oppression - scattereq its leaves, made redder with the bloed of martyrs, and tried to tear up that tree, but though that little rose was dashed to the ground and trampled under foot anq bruised and torn, vet nothing, no not even mighty England, with all her gold and armies, could root up that tree planted deep in Irish hearts by St. Patrick. ers will be speakers. is executifve secretary his_inception. friend of Dr. Herzl, ed as his secretary. periodicals including ment papers.

Another evil is the ack of continu- ity of policy.
