Noy K the time to read it and ta talk about it, with the seacs icr fern fires upon us. But ft I need to note the publfcaitcw w a biography by Sisters Mary of the Blessed Sac rament, IHary Leopoldine and Maria Vsaresa of the first true architect and master builder of the Pacific Northwest.. She was a Isman Catholic nun who came to Vancouver, Washington Territory, from Montreal in 1856. Four other young Sisters of the House of Providence were with her. A Way of Veod Mother Joseph of the Sacred Heart her full religious name has had credit in this column before for her creative labors in the beginnings of the region's first hospitals St. Vincent's of Portland, Providence of Seattle, and Spokane's Sacred Heart among them. These institutions came alive on Mother Joseph's drafting board. In each enterprise she also led the money-raising cam paign. She originated the cus tom of pairs of nuns taking the trails to remote mining and log ging camps to beg for their good works. Mother Joseph designed in . wood, built with wood, kept her own hands at work with wood and bossed the carpenters on the . job. Her beautiful cedar carv ings survive with Vancouver's Providence Academy, and its chapel, which also proclaims her gifts and technical skills in ar chitectural design. Vancouver's pioneer hospital. St. Joseph's, was remodeled from a combination bakery and laundry building wood all the way through. The Protestant la dies of Vancouver joined with the Sisters of Providence to pro vide this No. 1 Northwest hos pital, in 1858. Hell in the Forest "The Bell and the River" and "The Big Blow-up," are more closely related than one might think. The 1910 fires that took 85 human lives blanketed the pioneer trails of Mother Joseph and her Sisters of the House of Providence. It was to the Idaho, Montana and Cariboo gold camps of the 1860s and 1870s that they had traveled again and again, always with returns of gold nuggets and silver dol lars to serve the poor. And Betty Spencer's book also has a heroic figure, a leader in good works William G. Gree ley, USFS district forester at Missoula in 1910. Here are two fine books about two terrific personalities of our history, two who lived and labored to help others.
