Jesuit Shrine in Ontario May Become Goal of U. S. Tourists Steamer Service to Provide Access to Canada’s Fortified Cloister Near Midland.

With the opening of steamship service to Midland, Ont., American Catholics of the Great Lakes region are to have the opportunity of visiting the famous Martyr's Shrine at Fort Ste. Marie, two miles from Midland. Though this historical shrine of seventeenth century Jesuit martyrs annually attracts about 100,000 visitors, most of them are from Canada. So far it has not become well known to Catholics in the United States. Six of the eight canonized saints of the United States and Canada, members of the Jesuit order, labored at this fortified cloister. At the Jesuit missionaries’ central mission station these black-robed priests built the first permanent habitation of white men in Canada, formed the first great center of Christian civilization in the Province of Ontario, and from 1639 to 1649, ministered to the 20.000 Huron Indians living in this section. Canonized in 1930 For three centuries they were to a degree forgotten. Now they have become Roman Catholic saints. On June 21, 1925, the beatification of the saints took place in Rome and a monument was unveiled at the old fort. In 1926 the present church building was erected, and on June 29, 1930, honors of canonization were accorded them, thus giving to Canada and the United States their first saints. Father Daniel was martyred in 1648 by the Iroquois, two days after leaving Fort Ste. Marie. Father Gamier went from the fort to EthaLeader Announces C. M. B. Class Topic Merle, leader of the Christian Men Builders Class, Third Christian Church, is to speak on “If the Shoe Fits,” during the class period at 9:30 tomorrow morning.

Pastor Holds Church Among Health Needs Considers Environment as Factor in Treatment of Bodily Ills. BY THE REV. H. S. STEWART raitor. First Baptist t'burrh. Oak Park. 111. I firmly believe that in the future we shall see physicians who seek to heal man in his social environment as well as in his mind and body, to heal through the social environment both body and mind There will come a time when physicians will sec that their task can not be complete until they have entered into the realizations of a man to the ultimate, to God, and are ns deeply and soundly concerned with the reconciliation of the man to God in their healing endeavors as they are for the harmony of the | digestive system, or the sanity of the mind, for on no lower level can a man be made fully whole. For what is happening is this. We surround ourselves with a variety of instruments and agencies. We group ourselves into societies. We set up national defenses and work out economic orders and we devise and establish laws for the common good. And yet, w r ith all this, life is a frail and threatened thing. Our social organizations are constantly on the verge of disruption. Wars hang over us with their ominous threat. Millions are always on the borderline of starvation. And for the individual there is always the danger of failure, either in health or in morals or in the whole undertaking of life. Cures by Fakirs Therefore, we surround ourselves with physieians, with psychiatrists, with vocational directors, with adult educators and. I am ashamed to say. with astrologers and palmists and phrenologists and all the unhealthy brood of fakirs, in order that we may keep whole and find our way. And when w r e haVe succeeded in reaching the age of 60 in soundness of body, death comes staring at us around the corner, ready to break up the patchwork we have devised in trying to devise a life. Up till now a man who has been sick has often gone from physician to physician and not been healed, and then has gone to some mental healer, some charlatan, some fakir and has been healed—unmistakably healed. What has happened? The physician has been working on the end-result of the man’s disease. He has found a sick organ and he has patched away at that, but has not somehow cured the man himself. The charlatan, on the other hand, has inspired a confidence, or worked a trick that has cured the man and the organ has gotten well in consequence. In other words, we have regarded disease as something that belongs wholly to the body. But it does not belong wholly to the body; it belongs to the man. This idea was foreshadowed long ago by Socrates when he said, “Just as you ought not to attempt to cure eyes without head, or head without body, so you should not treat body .without soul." And Hippocrates, moving in the same direction, said, “In order to cure the human body, it is necessary to have a knowledge of the whole of things." Healing Men as Well as Bodies Here is the point: You can not make a man well by making his leg well if hLs mind Ls sick. You can not cure a man by making his leg and mind well if he Ls subject to such pressures from hLs whole social environment that he is constantly endangered with nervous breakdown. We may be thankful tnat there is a movement among physicians to treat men and to seek to heal men rather than to treat and seek to heal merely diseases. Jesus set out to heal men and hs addressed himself to the whole task. Jesus would never feel that the life of a man was healed until not only the physical sickness was abated, but the whole man was restored to healthy relationships to his fellowmen and to God and freed from sickness—causing sins and attitudes. Jesus healed the morally sick—those who had demons, or who had fallen into sin. He healed men as men, restoring their wholeness a3 persons, rather than healing just deaf ears or blind eyas. HLs conception of the wholeness of man included man’s eternal and life-giving relations to the heavenly Father. So that when Jesus set out to heal men he began with a larger idea of the wholeness of man than that held by any physician, unless that physician has himself been persuaded that human life is primarily something derived from God and having its wholeness in relation to God. We shall never succeed fully In the attainment of life and health for men, not even fully in any phase of their life, until we have made sound and whole the relationships of men and of society to God and the reactions of men and society to God. Missionary Chapter to Present Pageant Members of the Netta Bacon Chapter, Young Women’s Foreign Missonary Society, are to present a pageant in the Capitol Avenue Methodist Church at 7:30 tomorrow night.
