Still an&n prayer jmtravelns, asking in a spccid arsn-
.m jor the pokGtion of dhs guardian angels, wrr conrposad
by the saintly Msp. Dupadoup. It reuds:
ALMIGHTY and herciful Cod, Who hast commissioned
0 Thy angels to guide and protect us, comfnand them
to be our assiduous companions from our setting out until
our return; to clothe us with their invisible protection; to
keep from us all danger of collision, of fire, of explosion.

all evil, and especial1)i from sin, to guide us to our heavenly
home. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Another not less beautijul payer runs thus:
Y HOLY angel guardian, ask the Lord to bless the journey
which I undertake, that it may profit the health
of my soul and body; that I may reach its end; and that,
returning safe and sound, I may find all at home in good
health. Do thou guard, guide, and preserve us. Amen.

One should not fail at least to make the sign of the cross
on beginning a journey. The neglect or performance of
such acts of piety may make all the difference between having
our names figure on the list of "killed and wounded"
in some railway catastrophe, and having them appear as
those of passengers "saved by a miracle." -Avo Maria
