This
is
St
Patrick's
Day
and
the
famous
saint
who
is
said
to
have
taken
the
gospel
to
Ireland
and
left
them
fighting
over
it
ever
since,
is
being
honored
here
as
elsewhere.
The
lead
is
being
taken
here
by
thd
Catholic
Church
but
others
claim
the
evangelist
saint
as
one
of
the
great
religious
leaders
of
the
early
days.
At
any
rate
he
left
a
name
which
will
be
remembered
for
all
time
to
come
and
a
name
that
will
be
used
by
many
an
Irishman
to
remind
him
of
the
Prince
of
Peace
which
he
reveres
but
does
not
attempt
to
copy.
Ireland
is
but
a
small
country,
yet
its
influence
in
world
affairs
has
been
and
still
is
great.
Irish
people
are
found
in
almost
every
country
and
they
are
usually
to
the
fore
in
city
life.
In
New
York
they
show
the
way
to
strangers
by
standing
at
street
corners
and
they
are
a
terror
to
those
who
transgress
atrainst
the
law.
When
not
enforc
ing
the
law
they
are
said
to
be
busy

This

the

country
at
Prince

In
it

articles
pertaining
to

a

was
shown
to
have
been

"When
the
agricultural

of
our
great
north
land
is
made
tributary
to
your

of
the
Canadian
National
Railways,
Prince

de

D.
E.

rancher
of

in
the
Peace
River
country,
who
sailed
yesterday
af
ternoon
on
the
Catala
for
Vancouver
after
a
week-end
visit
here.
'This
has
been
my
first
visit
to
your
city
and
I
was
delighted
to
find
so
charming
a
setting
which
I
am
certain
is
not
surpassed
anywhere
on
the
Pacific
Coast.
I
have
been
particularly
impressed
with

Mr.
Harris
Is
an
active
member
of
the
Monkman

Highway
Association
which
is
advocating
the
construction
of

to
connect
up

country
with
the
Canadian
Na
tional
Railways
and
the
central
interior
road
system
at
a
point
near
Prince

Mr.
Harris
told
of
activities
which
had
been
under
way
with
a'
view-
to
obtaining
this
highway
link.
In.'

the
objective
being
to
secure
8,000,
to
10,000
members.
The
