ST. ANTHONY.
Address in West Point
Chapel.
BETTER SITE WANTED.
મ
In the curse of an eloquent sermon on the life and work of St. Anthony of Padua, which he delivered yesterday afternoon in the little chapel bearing the saint's name, tucked away in corner of Third Street, West Point, the Rev. Father R. W. Gallagher, S., announced that the whole world will observe the 700th anniversary of the death of St. Anthong on June 13, 1931, and that this commemoration will con- elude on May 30, 1932, the day on which he was canonised in Rome, Although St. Anthony has great number of devotees in this Colony, comprising mostly the Portuguese Community, no one had even
suggested building comfortable little church in better site than the present, where it is
so inconveniently sitsunter.

Commenting on the life of St. Anthony, Father Gallagher said: St. Anthony of Padua, the Franciscan wonder worker, the hammerer of the infidels, was
born at Lisbon in 1195. At the
age of 15, Ferdinand, as he was

St. Augustine. In 1220, having see the bodies of the first Franciscan martyrs who had just suffered death in Morocco, he, too, was inflamed with a desire for martyrdom and resolved to be- come a Franciscan himself. This he did and changed his name to that of St. Anthony. He started for Morocco in hopes of gaining a martyr's crown, but severe illness compelled him to return. He la- boured in many places, but his best work was done in Padua, where he died in 1231, at the age of 36, eleven of which he spent as a Franciscan.
The service concluded after the Blessing of the Blessed Sacrament. Later the visitors partook of tea, when the band of the boys of St. Louis Industrial School, dis- coursed many favourite prices to the delight of those present.
