Why Catherine of Siena Is Remem- bered as a Peacemaker. (By Mark Stuyvesant.) In Italy, in the fourteenth century, girls were commidered marriageable at the age of twelve. And golden hair was the fashlon, So little Cath- erine Benincasa, the daughter of a dyer of Siena, was forced to have her dark hair colored a brilliant yellow. This almost broke her heart, be- cause she was deeply religious and had dreams of becoming a nun. She did not want to get married. She wanted to be a sister and she knew that the dyeing of her hair was the | firat step toward an arranged mar- riage. Terrified, but spurred on by her religious fervor, Catherine did something which, in the eyes of her family, was a terrible sin. She cut oft her lovely blonde hair and thus removed any chance of marriage. For girls with short hair were not permitted to marry in the early ren- alssance days of Siena, As a punishment, little Catherine was obliged to do all the work in the kitchen. And hard work it was for this child of twelve. But she thought she was doing the work for the glory of God. She performed her menial » duties with such grace and _s0-noble a spirit that the kitchen become a sanctuary. Already she was begin- ning to influence people by her sweet- ness. This disposition toward her duties caused her family to repent of their rigorois discipline. They finally decided to allow the child to become a nun. , Catherine joined the Order of St. This was not a cloistered order. The nuns lived at home. So Catherine lived practically as a recluse In her father's house. _-But soon she felt called to sbrvice and began to work among the lepers, for there was much disease In Siena in those She also devoted much of her time to prisoners. comfort of many criminals.
