The saint was christened Suc

which he was known until he be
came a bishop. When he obtained
his commission to evangelize Ire
land, Pope Celestine I, renamed
Succat, sending him from Rome
as Patricius, a noble name of the
time.
There probably is no race toda
as proud as the Irish of dfsient
from so-called royalty. Old Erin, it
would appear from some accounts,
spawned kings as easily as a
salmon laying eggs at the headwat
ers of the Columbia Kiver.
Erin was near the height of ii
pagan civilization when Patrick ar

named Leaiy. Evidnce that l.e:n
was not "king" of all Ireland rests
in the fact that when he died he
was buried standing up. as was the
custom, facing his enemies in
Lienster.
Patrick was not the lirst Catho
lic missionary to visit Ireland.
His predecessors were numerous.
Like most missionaries of the
fourth and lifth centuries who
went into wild country their
work usually ended in death
Footprints and Blood
Give Thief Away
NEW YORK (UP i Detective
William A. Jacobs, investigating
the burglary of a drug store, found
a broken window. Leading away
from it in the snow was a trail of
footprints.
There were crimson dots in the
snow, too. When the footprints ran
out the detective had no trouble in
following the bloodstains to a door,
up a stairs and to a bedroom where
he found Edward Williams, 55,
treating a lacerated hand.

Still, there were some converts

lor the next 2H i-ars. Patrick
toured the iskn.d and at the time
of Ills death he had established 700
churches, ordained 3.000 priests
and consecrated 3H0 bishops. Even
with that phenomenal achievement,
Patrick died in a land not com
pletely converted. There still was
much work left for Ireland's next
most tainous saints, Bridget and
C'ulumha.
Columtia. also known to the
Irish as ( oluiiikillc dove of the

years after Patrick. During his
lifetime, much id' it in exile at

In a dream, Columkille was
transported to the last day of the
world, Accoinpan nig Patrick lrom
heaven. Columkille watched in awe
as the bodies of men were resur
rected from their graves and united
with their souls. Winn all had been
accomplished. Patrick, in a great
I voice, called on all the Irish to as
semble in one place.
Calling Columkille. then. Patrick
sent his lieutenant to heaven with
instructions to have St. Peter pre
pare a suitable welcome for the
Irish.
"St. Peter saw no objection to
such a reception." said Colum
kille, "hut he enjoined, nig to re
turn to Patrick with'an order that
only the uood Irish could enter
the others to go below."
Patrick was taken aback. With
great anscr. he told Columkille
to return to the gates and inform
Peter that heaven would get all
the Irish or none at all.
When asked what happened
next, Columkille said his dream
ended at that point.

Inland Sailor Plans Ocean Voyage
As Start On His College Education
JACKSON, Mich. lUP) An
ocean-going vessel is sitting hun
dreds of miles from navigable wa
ter liere, but it's all part of Theo
dore Conovers plan to go to col
lege. The young ex-sailoi" plans to sail
his converted whale boat down the
Ohio River to the Mississippi,
thence via the Gulf of Mexico to
Tampa, Fla.. and his goal, the Uni
versity of Tampa.
A year ago the bogey of expenses
thwarted Conover's idea of attend
ing the southern college. There was
the problem of transportation as
well as housing.
So Conover got a 28-foot ex
Navy whale boat at an auction for
$130. Since then he has converted
it into a slcek-power-driven cabin
craft.
Intereslea iu i.opeople pitched
in to help the disabled veteran in
his task. The city water superin
tendent, D. J. Stellingworth, con
tributed a discarded impellor wheel
from one of the city's deep well
water pumps for a propeller.
Conover built a 14-foot cabin
containing seats, bunk, table, closet
and kitchenette. He installed a nev. '
marine engine and a :i4-lool masl
for sail power. Tidily -seven feel1
of railroad rail provides a lieaw I
keel.
Conover said that en arrival in
Tampa he will anchor Iii.-. nail
