Subject: [CON-GEN] St. Patrick's Day in Chicago

Hi, it is me, dumb yank.

Whit Sunday ... as it is written on the calendar's last page ...
Penticost. Thank you all.

St. Patrick's Day .. as it is written on the calendar's last page ... March
17th ... in Chicago is fondly known as St. Patty's Day and also St.
Patrick's Day. Maybe a local thing, but it has been called that for years
as my mother recalls it.

Another day on the calendar is Remembrance Day, Nov. 14th ... similar I am
sure to our Memorial Day.

No mention of a saint for the miners... I looked. What do you expect from
a calendar printed in Kent?
