Quebec, through her shrines and churches, proclaims that she was born and bred in the "old of the Roman Catholic Church. Today, rearly three centuries since the Cross and Lilies of France were planted on the hills above the St. Lawrience, the religious institutions then founded still flourish. Softfooted nuns, cowled monks and fiathatted priests are met on every hand as they go about their duties. Always the cross is in evidence crude wayside shrines along the country roads and preat golden crosses npon crty spires. Quebec City may be called the heart of this church in America for there is its W estminster, Notre Dame de la Paix, commonly known as the Ea.'ilica. It was founded in 3G45 and holds the remains cf iwarly every Bishop of Quebec, also other ecclesiastics and notabn?' pioneers, Ln the Chapel of the Ursu-i
line Convent burns a votive lamp, the flame of which has burned nndrmroed through peace and war since it was lighted in 1717. Under this chapel rests Montcalm, France's defender of the City of Hills. In a square among the little houses of Lower Town stands the unpretentious church of Notre Dame des Victoires, near the site where stood Champlain's housi A beautiful custom is maintained by the Franciscan Sisters' Convent in its office of perpetual adoration with two white robed nuns ever kne-elinR before the altar. The most widely known Quebec shrine is that of Ste. Anne de Beaupre in the little town of the same name, connected with Quebec
City by electric tram and motorway. This shrine, built in fulfillment of a vow made in 1650 by i storm-harassed sailors to Ste. ! Anne, the mother of the Virgin, is I
famed for its cureg. Each summer pilgrims by thousands, from far and near, kneel before the miracleworking shrine. Montreal, too, has its celebrated churches and shrines. Its Cathedra of Notre Dame, a $6,000,000 edifice, contains a bronze St. Peter which pilgrims travel far to kiss. Notre Dame Bon Secours has a unique chapel built above its roof, a replica of a miraculous structure at I retto on the Adriatic, while the Virgin in Our Lady or Lourdes Church is ingeniously illuminated and the shrine under the church is flttcd like that of the famous Grotto at Lourdes ha France. At Ste. Anne's on the western end of the island of Montreal, stands an ancient edifice, once the westernmost church in Canada, at whose altar knelt explorers and voyi-freurs ere committing themselves to the perils cf the wilderness beyond.
