Show THE PAYSONIAN, PAYSON, UTAH THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE ARE GIVING TOASTED CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS To anyone who doesnt know of the wonderful advances that have been made In the preparation of smoking tobaccos in the last few years it may sound strange to speak of toasted cigarettes. Strictly speaking, we should say cigarettes made of toasted tobacco; the smokers of this country will recognize it more readily by its trade name, LUCKY STRIKE the toasted cigarette. The American Tobacco Company are producing millions of these toasted cigarettes and these are being bought in enormous quantities through the various tobacco funds conducted by the newspapers of the country and forwarded through the Red Cross Society to the bo s In France. This new process of treating tobacco not only improves the flavor of the tobacco but it seals in this flavor and makes the cigarettes keep better. The Red Cross nurse is always glad to have a cigarette for the wounded soldier, as, in most instances, that is the first thing asked for. Adv. Strange Doings for Pacifist.

WORTHILY RANKS AMONG SAINTS Patricks Useful Life and Good Works Entitle Him to Position of Eminence. PLACE OF BIRTH NO MATTER Certain He Was a True Irishman and Accomplished Much for the Welfare of the Race During His Sojurn on the Island. of the reasons why St is such a favorite the over is that he was so very human. He hadnt much of a chance when a boy, but he made the best of w hat he had. If he had not the wduld have been a hogherd all the days of his life. He was a slave, in very truth, being bound to a pagan hog raider In Britain. But you cant keep a good man down, and that's a fact. If all the legends be true, which can hardly be possible, Patrick was a favorite among the ladies, even making an impression on the good St. Bridget. Maybe this was before they became saints of course it was, for how could they be saints and be alive at the same GNE time? However, there is quite a lot of writings, whether genuine or not, that go to show that he was a real human lover, and that dear Bridget was exceedingly fond of him, and would have married him could be have procured the consent of the church. His Life and Works. From all that can te learned concerning the life and works of St. Patrick, he w as a good man. and spent his life going about doing good for bis fellows. As you know, a good man is more highly respected, more beloved and exerts a greater Influence for good In the community In which he Is known than even the wealthiest, the most powerful or most favored. He may not wear purple and fine linen, nor fare sumptuously, but he is making the world better and Is, therefore, truly, end In the highest sense, a son of God. There are numerous stories and legends concerning 8t. Patrick, some of which may be true. But It matters little whether he was a Milesian born or a son of a poor swineherd of the green Isle. The history of the world shows that the mere circumstances of birth cuts very small figare in the matter of real From earliest times the greatness. men who have figured most prominently In world movements for the betterment of mankind have been of humble origin. In order to rise from the lowly birth station of Lincoln or of Moses, a man must have the true spirit of manliness In him. If he survive the severe trying-ou- t process his will be a mnster-fu- l, leading, helpful spirit which the spirits of all must acknowledge, respect and submit to. In His Day. We of the present day can hardly conceive of the conditions existing In the British islands in his day. The native Celts were heathen and brutish, and had no higher ambition than to exist, unless it was to rob neighboring tribes of their cattle, hogs and fair women. Physically they were strong, vigorous and emotional, and possessed of good nature, wit and social feeling in a marked degree as compared with the Inhabitants of other ' islands. Noting this, St. Patrick' must have concluded there was something here to work on, something good; and seeing this he took It as his command to assist In the development of the social disposition and good feelings of these people. He therefore became one of them, lived with them, won their confidence and commanded their respect. In order that he might be an efficient leader he- - occasionally Went abroad and studied under the fathers of the church, for religion Is most powerful to control the feelings and change the aspirations of men. No matter what he may have been born, he was a true Irishman. A Real Man. There are those who regard St. Patrick as a fakir more or less, because of the miracles he is said to have wrought. As far as known St. Patrick did not claim to have miraculous power, nor to have driven the reptiles out of Ireland. It has always been the rule among Ignorant and superstitious people to credit their religious teachers and great leaders with having done some marvelous or miraculous thing. Without something of the sort other ignorant and superstitious people would not heed them. There may never have been any reptiles on this particular Island, It having been one of the last to rise up out of the salty sea.

It Is not the fact that a man Is able to do wonderful things, or to work miracles, that ruakgs him great really, but his ability to see and to comprehend the great truths concerning life, and to earnestly desire to spread these among the people. This It Is that commands the attention of the livelier spirits, and wins the respect and confidence of those who desire better things in this life. Such was St. Patrick. A Splendid Type. It Is not the mere humnn creature that accomplishes great things, but the man within the machine. It was not the figure seen by the people that commanded their admiration, for he was not an Apollo, nor was It the familiar form bearing a shepherd's crook that brought these rough, untutored men to their knees and inspired them with worshipful feelings; nor w3 it the venerable father that aroused the spark of crude love In their hearts and ripened It until it became a controlling Influence of their lives. It was the man within the plainly dad form, the spirit that lighted the kindly eye, the love that prompted the tongue to utter appeals, to give timely wnrnlngs and to promise contentment, prosperity and happiness to all who would live right' one toward another, thus pleasing God and making for peace and good will on earth. Great he was indeed, else he could not have done so great good toward all men. ST. PATRICK PAID HIS WAY In His Confessions" He Tells of His Custom Never Asked for Contributions. Always chary of sending round the Patrick paid his own way plate, through the Green Isle, as he emphatically relates In his Confessions. But when It happens that I baptized so many thousand men did I accept ever a screpall (a Celtic coin of the value of about six cents) from them? he wrote. Tell me, and I will return It to you. Or when the Lord ordained clergy through my humility and ministry, did I confer the grace gratuitously? If I asked any of them even the value of my shoe, tell me, and I will repay you more. I rather spent for you as far as I was able, and amon you and everywhere for you I endured many perils In distant places, where none had been farther or had ever come to baptize or ordain the clergy or confirm the people." Every mans task is his The conviction that his work Is dear to God, and cannot be spared, defends him. Emerson Tribute to Boy Scouts. Milwaukee.
