We Canadians are gallantly fighting our enemies, The flag we follow enshrines the blood red cross of St. Patrickâ€"the symbol of sacrifice and lghoodwill.

In 1750 Nova Scotians claim to have held the "17th of Ireland" but the first recorded celebration was at an anâ€" nual Charitable Irish Society Banâ€" quet held in Halifax in 1786. Queâ€" bec would claim a celebration in 1765 but the first Dominion Irish parade was held at Quebec in 1819. But that part of the legend be as it may, the story goes that in 401 A.D., when only about 15 years of age, he was carried off by seaâ€" roving pirates to Northeastern Ulster, where this young Christian was sold as a slave in the County of Antrim. For six years he workâ€" ed doing his duty for the swineâ€" !herd of which he was put in charge. {In spite of ill treatment and being poorly fed and poorly clad, his | cheerful, enthusiastic disposition ‘did not let him get discouraged and his spare minutes were usually spent in deep meditation and prayer. After a few years he zescaped on a pirate ship but claimâ€". ing to have heard an inner voice begging him to come back to Ireâ€" land he at once set out to study for the priesthood. ‘ | We are told that the reason for the shamrock being a revered !lrish emblem is that it was chosen by St. Patrick to prove the existâ€" ence of the Trinityâ€"the threcâ€"inâ€" oneâ€"to his hearers. Another story relates the tale of how this saint drove the snakes and toads from Ireland. We are not toid how it was done but the fact still remains that reptiles are quite unknown in Ireland but that Scotland and Engâ€" land both have them. .3 He returned to Ireland as a misâ€" sionary and began to teach and freach. thus converting the pagan rish. Churches grew up in every quarter and by the year 438 A.D. the Celtic Church of Ireland was the most learned church in Europe. Not only did St. Patrick preach Christianity but that also meant he reformed the Irish laws, freed slaves and raised ur those men of true worth but lowly birth. ; France. One life of St. Patrick which was writtee sometime toâ€" ward the end of the seventeenth century claimed the Saint‘s original name was Succouth and that he was born in Britain. Another would h?\ghi:“t:mthewubommw&n o ian parentage at a coun house in Strathclyde in Scothfl Still another records his binhBI:ce as being at Kilpatrick near im barton in Scotland. inere was considerable argument as to whether St. Patrick was born in the dy'u:geminulep of the 8th of March or dawning of the 9th. Controversy and true Irish arguâ€" ment prevailed for some time till finaily an Irish priest, Father Mulâ€" cnhgd 5{3 name, is ;nid to h:x: set argument by adding two dates together and proclaiming March 17th as the bir&day to be celebrated.
