Monk claims he has lived

MISSION, B.C. (CP) — To
retire at age 34 after earning
more than $i million—that
was a thrill,

To give away $2 million at
age 63 and enter a monastery
—that was a more profound
experience,

It happened to Rev, Bede
Reynolds, 79, once a Protes-
tant civilengineer, who struck
it rich in the oi] fields in the
19203 and today is a senior
Benedictine monk at the West-
minster Abbey. Seminary of

Llewellyn Reynolds, met the
woman who would become his
wife it was the beginning of a
spiritualodyssey which would
eventually leadhim to monas-
tic life.

The first week he knew his.
wife-to-be he made a discov-
ery:

“T learned that she was a
Roman Catholic. What a blow
it was for me, If she were a
cripple or an invalid, that
could be cured. But if she was
anything like my brother Gra-
ham, a fervent Catholic then
at a seminary, what was the
chance of cure from Catholi-
cism?”’

They were married, not-
withstanding. Later, it was
Mr. Reynolds who was con-
verted.

SALE MADE HIM RICH

Mr, Reynelds was part of
Pacific Gasoline Co,, a little
company which sold only to
wholesalers. But Standard Oil
of California didn’t consider
Pacific Gasoline Co. so small
~it handed over $20 million to
buy the partners out. .

company at the time, and my

transaction left me, at the age
of 34, with more money than I
ever expected to own. [ had
three cheques sent to me for

my three stock certificates
and deposited them in the

that it is a thrill, try it some

For the next 16 years, Mr,

Reynolds and his wife lived at.

ease. They travelled around
the world. They bought a
summer home at McKenzie
Bridge, on. the McKenzie
River in Oregon.

-Mr, Reynolds kept up with
his nobbies: hybridizing daf-
fédils, angling and archery:

It was during this time that

he became a Catholic,

I found ‘my way into the
church The last seven years
before my wife died, we were
daily communicants.

“We had a chapel at our
summer home, and a chaplain
there who was a Benedictine
from Mount Angel Abbey, 100
miles away. So this is how I
eventually came to the
order.”’

his services in the U.S. Petro-

GAVE AWAY WEALTH

“As a married man, I fig-
ured that as Gad had given
me the faith while I-was mar-
ried, it wasn’t expected of me
to break up my family to be-
come a priest,” Father Rey-
nolds said, “But my wife and
T both knew that E wanted to
be a priest, when we knew

-that she had only a short time

to live,”

It took him three years to
dispose of his assets-~~which
had grown to some $2 million

by this time,

“Themoney was distributed
high, wide and handsome.”

Mount Angel Abbey was es-
tablishing a daughter priory
in B.C. and by the time he
was ordained a priest in 1951,
he had moved north.

—and the joys—of a house-

By BEVERLEY BRAHIC ¢

MARSEILLE (CP) — A

proper French housewife goes
shop ping once, and often
twice, a day.

Horrors, you say; once a

week is bad enough.
Remembering the Friday

night crush around the ground

round at Montreal supermar-

- kets I'd agree.

But in France, if you aren't
in a hurry, shopping i is a ples-
sure.

It was also a daily necessity ;

until relatively recently with

‘the appearance of ready-

sliced, cellophane-packaged
bread, frozen dinners and re-
frigerators—all of which are
still regarded with a slightly
jaundiced eye, if I can judge
by the people I know.

. Where else does the butcher
—knife poised over a series of
lamb chops—spend half an
hour in ardent discussion with
each customer and then point
out that “if that’s all the

money you have this morning,
-you'd better hang onto it and.
‘ pay for the meat another

time.”
I once made the mistake of
trying to buy a roast of beef

. on Sunday morning. In my

neighborhood, it’s mainly the
husbands who do the shopping

on Sunday, and by the time I .
‘ reached the head of the line

at the butcher shop, it was too
late to cook the roast.

The morning of de Gaulle’s
funeral, the ‘local women, a
few men attracted by the
noise, and the butcher—gest-
culating with a knife in one
hand and a leg of lamb in the
other—re-fought the Resist-
ance, reliberated Paris and

re-repatriated the French Al-

gerians.

‘But the favorite subject of
my butcher, not surprisingly,
is the high quality of his meat
and the low quality meat of
most other butcher shops.
