in these are being placed altars and
statues of the saints, with the ex
ception of the two which are used
as confessionals. The Little Flow
er of Jesus, St. Anthony, Our Lady
of Lourdes, the Sacred Heart, St
Rita, and the miraculous picture of
Mary, occupy places among the
main body of the church. These
altars make it possible for nine
masses to be said in the church at
one time; three altars, honoring the
Blessed Virgin, the Christ and St.
Joseph occupying the transept and
chancel.
A heating and cooling system has
been installed in the building by an
Atlanta firm. Three oil burning
heaters, automatically regulated by
a thermostat and connected by air
pipes to each pew, are providing
heat during the cold weather, while
a cooling system, controlled by a
humidostat will give the proper de
gree of temperature during the
warmest days.
Added . seating capacity of the
church is afforded by the large
transept of th« church which will
accommodate nearly four hundred
persons.
In the chancel, guarded by a
beautifully carved walnut altar rail,
is the altar. The doors of the
transept open into the priests sac
risty on one side; an adjoining flow
er room, with a connecting hall
which leads to the boys sacristy
and a second flower room on the
other.
The budding stands 123 feet
above the ground, from street to
top of the gilded cross, as high as
a twelve story office building. The
church is 181 feet long and 81 feet
wide. The arch of the main veil
ing is 65 feet above the floor.
There is ample accommodation
in the priests sacristy for the altar
linens, robes and vestments, and
this is repeated in the boys sac
risty.
No detail of the new St. Paul’s
has been left unprovided. It is a
church of which the community
may well be proud; a splendid mile
stone in the accomplishments of
Father Mullally, whose work made
such an edifice possible.

Archbishop of Chile
Honored at Ninety
Metropolitan of Santiago
Consecrated at 79
SANTIAGO, Chile.—The Most Rev.
Don Crescente Errazuriz Valdivieso,
Archbishop of Santiago, whose nine
tieth birthday was celebrated recent
ly, is one of the best known and most
beloved prelates in South America,
The whole Chilean nation paid honor
to His Grace.
Among the congratulatory messages
received by the distinguished nonage
narian were those from His Holiness
Pope Pius XI, His Majesty the King
of Spain and His Excellency the
President of Peru.
Member of a family that had given
four presidents to the Republic of
Chile, Crescente Errazuriz, in 1863,
had the distinction of being ordained
by his uncle, the Most Rev. Don Val
entin Valdivieso, also Archbishop of
Santiago.
The first years of his priesthood
were devoted to the teaching of phil
osophy and canon law at the Grand
Seminary and the University, and to
founding the Revista Catolica and El
Estandarte Catolico. In 1869 he ac
companied his uncle, the Archbishop,
on a visit to Rome and was present
at the promulgation of the dogma
Archbishop, on a visit to Rome and
was present at the promulgation of
the dogma of the infallibility of the
Pope. He became personally ac
quainted with Pius IX.
After iris return to his homeland,
the young priest devoted all of his
spare tune to the study of history.
"The Origins of the Church in Chile,”
his first book published in 1873, was
followed by many others dealing with
local history. His “Six Years from
the History of Chile” won for him the
title of “king of Chilean historians.”
Following this period of literary
production. Father Errazuriz entered
the Dominican order and spent twen
ty-five years in the cloister of the
Recoleta Dominica. He was forced to
give up his life of negation at the end
of that period because of ill health.
While seeking to regain his health he
produced another volume, Pedro Val
divia, which won for him the gold
medal of the Historic and Geographic
Society.
January 12, 1919, Father Errazuriz
was consecrated Archbishop of San
tiago at the age of 79 years. At the
banquet given in his honor by the
President of Chile on that day, His
Grace replied to numerous toasts with
these words: “An old tree, gentle
men, produces neither flower nor
fruit, but many are those who come
to seek repose under its shade and
shelter from the tempest. I wish to
be such an old tree.”
In troublous times since then, the
Archbishop has been a refuge for
many and a great source of peace; but
despite his advanced age, he has been
also actively engaged in directing the
four dioceses that make up the Arch
diocese of Santiago. He has founded
24 new parishes and furthered every
Catholic movement.
His Grace received the decoration of
the Grand Cross of Isabella the Cath
olic from His Majesty the King of
Spain; and on July 14, 1922, in the
name of the President of the French
Republic, the French Minister to
Chile, conferred upon him the rank of
Commander of the Legion of Honor.
