News Service) ' Paris.—“Lcs Annales de Lisieux,” have just published the text of an admirable letter written by Cardi nal Mcijeicr on December 8 last to Mother Agnes, sister of the Little Flower afid Prioress of the Carmel of Lisieux, On that day the Cardinal had un dergone a radiographic examination and had learned from the physi cians the desperate gravity of his condition. That evening he told his intimates that lie had been able to make a worth while offering to the Blessed Virgin. The following letter is a page of deeply stirring beauty: • "... Today the doctors have revealed to me that 1 have a tumor of the stomach. In the depths of my soul 1 thank God for having something to offer Him through Our Lady of Sorrows and with all my heart I have said my Magnificat in union with that of my Mother in Heaven. Since I have been suffer ing I have never believed that 1 should ask for my recovery. I aban don myself lo Divine Providence, and ask but one thing, that Provi dence draw from poor me ail the glory it can, at any price. Never theless, on November 15 last, when I went to give Benediction for the Carmelites of Brussels in honor of your dear Little Saint, the thought suddenly came to me, just as 1 was crossing the threshold of the church, to have recourse t 0 her. Upon reaching my priedieu, I asked my self whether l should implore my recovery. I did not then know the gravity of my affliction, hut fore seeing the eventuality thereof I did not dare do so. I made a condi tional request which resolved itself into an act of abandon. Trans-Atlantic Flight Plan (By N. C. W. C. News Service) Dublin—GeneraJ regret is felt at the unlooked-for announcement that the trans-Atlantic flight from Clif- den, Galway County, to America is not to take place. One of the rea sons given is that the experiment should receive more mature consid eration, in view of the influence which it would have on the develop ment of air traffic across the ocean. Aerial development on a big scale be tween Europe and America is re garded as one of the approaching certainties, and Ireland must he the natural gateway of such transit. Any blundering effort in the initial stage might only retard matters by damp ing public zest. Nevertheless Colonel Russell who was to have been one of the pilots does not conceal his disap pointment. in consultation with noted airmen be had arranged most of the details and chosen the type of machine. The Free State authori ties called a halt, partly for the rea sons mentioned and partly on the ground of expense. Hartford Auxiliary Bishop McAuliffe Consecrat ed by Bishop Nilan “1 have under way several works which I should certainly like to pur sue for the glory of God and for my clergy. But is not the personal sacrifice still the best way to serve divine glory and interests? God does not need any one of us. “I believe therefore that 1 am right in keeping to my attitude of abandon. But I do not believe I am departing from it in begging you to question your Little Sister to know what is best and in asking .you to take my place in asking her Ihis.” Hartford, Conn.—The Rt. Rev.
