The success of the Polish colonies which grew up in Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Massachusetts, at Chicago, New York, Detroit, Milwaukee, Cleve- land, Buffalo and elsewhere . . ., is due to the parishes which were quickly organized in every Polish group . . . H. l-l. Fisher America Sf the New Poland The Polish immigrcmt persistently clung to his nationalistic tendencies, to the Roman Catholic Church and unselfishly supported his own institu- tions in America. These leaven-like characteristics gave rise to the numerous churches, some of which, like ours, under the patronage of Our Lady of Czes- todxowa are in the United States disseminated from coast to Coast. We herald the multiple blessings of one brave deed, that like a magic chain sprouts its golden links into eons of time. One phoenix-like Czes- tochowa multiplies its spiritual links tar and wide, over the continents wherever her defender's children wend their way. We in like manner, through the pages of our hook spotlight some of these links, the centers of worship, dedicated to Her Majesty, the Queen of Czestochowa, Regina Montis Clari, the Queen of Poland, the Black Madonna, the Lady of Bright Mount or Jasna Cora.
