James E. Deery, of Indianapolis, has
this to say of the Irish question:
"The foremost question to be con-
sidered will be how can the A. O. H.
best help the Irish cause. We must
try to devise a plan that will influ-
ence the Government at Washington
to recognize immediately the Irish Re-
public."
Arrangements for the convention

GREAT BASILICA
MAY COMMEMORATE
PEACE IN IRELAND
(sY N. c. w. c. Nws sRc
Dublin, June 27.The project that
the Irish race at home and abroad
should build a Basilica in gratitude to
the Sacred Heart, if*a favorable an-
swer to the prayers for Ireland, in her
present distress, be granted, ha§ been
cordially received.
The writer who originally made the
suggestion pointed out that Ireland,
the most Catholic nation in the world,
is at the present time passing through
a Gethemane of tribulation, unequal-
led in the course of her tragic his-[
tory. One of the Catholic journals[
strongly commends the proposal. It I
recalls that at Montmartre, in Paris, ]
there stands, as an everlasting me-[
morial of the gratitude of France for I
being saved from destruc*on in 1870.'
a great Basilica in hono,- ,,z the Sa-
cred Heart. So, too, it submits, a sim-
ilar Basilica in Ireland would be a
standing memorial for all time of the
gratitude of Ireland for the attain-
ment of the long-cherished wishes and
hopes of the Irish nation.
Such a Basilica is also needed in or-
der to enable Irish Catholics to carry
out the design of holding a great Eu-
charist!c Congress in Ireland. Public
opinion has been greatly imItressed by
the suggestion. Hopes are entertained
that the project may soon become pos-
sible of realization. The more the peo-
ple have been subjected to suffering
and privation the more fervently have
they prayed.

i Church Calendar
NE,t T WEEK
Sunday, July 17.--St. Alexius was the son of noble Roman parents. On his
wedding night by special inspiration he was moved to leave Rome and
go to Edessa, where he gave away all his possessions and lived on alms.
When he had lived in this manner for seventeen years he again sought
obscurity by flight and on a voyage to Tarsus his ship was driven by
contrary winds and he was forced to land at Rome. For another seven-
teen years he lived as a mendicant in his father's house where no one
recognized in the poor and tattered beggar the heir to one of the great
fortunes of Rome. Only after his death did his identity become known
through a writing in his own hand. He died early in the fifth century.
Monday, July 18.--St. Camillus of Lellis in his early years manifested no
marks of saintliness. After several years spent in campaigns against
the Turks, he found himself in straightened circumstances and forced to
work as a laborer in the construction of a Capuchin convent. The light
of Truth flooded his soul and he decided to become a Capuchin friar, but
an obstinate wound prevented him from continuing his novitiate. Later,
with the approval of the Pope, he founded the community of the Servants
of Sick and devo(ed his life to the care of these afflicted ones. He died
in the year 1614.
tuesday, July 19.St. Vincent de Paul was born A. D. 1576. After a youth
passed in humble surroundings he entered the religious state and soon
after his ordination he was captured by corsairs and carried into Bar-
bary. He converted his renegade master and escaped with him to France
where the saint was made chaplain-general of the galleys of France.
He devoted his life to the care of the poor and the instruct'ion of the
rich in works of charity. The Society of St. Vincent, the Priests of the
Mission, and the Sisters of Charity still comfort the afflicted with the
charity of St. Vincent of Paul.
Wednesday, July 20.--St. MargareL virgin and nmrtyr, according to the an-
cient martyrologies, suffered at Antioch in Pisidia in the last general
persecution. She is said to have been instructed in the Faith by a Chris-
tian nurse, to have been persecuted by her own father, a pagan priest,
and, after many torments, to have gloriously finished her martyrdom by
tim sword. From the East her veneration was propagated in England,
France and Germany in the eleventh century. Her body is now kept at
Monte-Fiascone in Tuscany.
Thursday, July 21.--St. Victor, martyr, was an officer in the army of the Em-
peror Maximian. Because of his exhortations to the Christians at Mar-
seilles to renmin faithful to their God after the slaughter of the Thebaen
legion, he was put to death after fearful tortures had been inflicted upon
him.
Friday, July 22.--St. Mary Magdalen in her early life was known as "a wonmn
who was a sinner." From the depths of her degradation she raised her
eyes to Jesus with sorrow, hope and love, and was forgiven. She stood
with Our Lady and St. John at the foot of th6 Cross, the representative
of the many who have had much forgiven. When the faithful were scat-
tered by persecution, she found refuge in a cave in Provence where she
lived for thirty years.
Saturday, July 23.--St. Almllinaris, bishop and nmrtyr, was the first bishop
of Ravenna; he sat twenty years and was crowned with martyrdom in
the reign of Vespasion. He was a disciple of St. Peter, and made by
him Bishop of Ravenna. Pope Honorius built a church under the name
of Apollinaris in Rome about tim year 630. The high veneration which
the ChurcI paid early t 9 his memory is a testimony of his eminent
sanctity and apostolic spirit.
