RVICE TO STATE PRELATE'S PLEA offtinued From First Page). SIS jon the parishes. They are assessed pugh already. In other words, it proposed to go ‘forward slowly, Ipi our way. What will, I trust, nd itself to your judgment gen- y is the use of the cathedral idea jp.neans of securing, step by step, jre of administrative unity in our ary.oand other dlacesan work, ‘War and Service. We meet at a serious time, when whole nation has recognized the | issues involved in the world ' and determined to take its part ein. Upon the members of the h it is incumbent, as. citizens, emplify loyvalty of the finest ty. Connecticut has led all the in a systematic census, on the rificiple that there is something far person to do. It is a time for ed conviction of individual re- ibility, and of the privilege of i the state. I would commend ind urge upon you that earnest 1 of the president for unstinted ¢ without regard to profit or nal advantage wherein he re- hinBled us how many kinds of em- zg and self-sacrifice were de- tided. Some of us, perhaps, have — to do .our allotted work bet- prer an before. - At any rate, let ey be no listless idlers and slug- » among us, ;Sr r young men will be entering he service of.the country.” Each Lpf them his pastor will, I trust, #’,‘y follow up, writing him mes- of good cheer, and bracing him @ plfa good soldier of Jesus Christ, jf eerving his country. I ask that es of these young men, with } address gnd with regiment or §or place of service, be sent to sConnecticut Churchman, to be led in a roll of honor. The of those who leave should nembered with sympathy and o {7 kindness. he clu‘y of the diocese, one France, to serve as a the First Connecticut Infantry, and one chaplain of the Naval Miutia. Several others have applied for serv- ice. My appeal for equipments for the work of the chaplains ig mesting with encouraging response. There is much which only the women can do, and which I am confident they will be only too glad to do. The )io- <cesian Board of Religious Education is planning to_ interest the Sunday- school children in service. Loyalty. to Ideals. “At this time, the church’s corpor- ate influence should make its impact upon the conscience of the nation, to keep it true to the highest ideals. The momentous step has been taken without popular excitement or pas- sion, with quiet and deep conviction of the principles involved. The church’s influence should go toward maintaining this self-restraint, - and against -the intrusion -of = unwortay motives of hatred or vengeance, and any unjust treatment: of those amnong us who are of foreign birth or parentage. The church should be ministering inspiration of comfort and strength. Each one of our church buildings, open, so far as poa- sible, for frequent short services and for silent prayer, should be a refuge for the heavy-hearted, a stronghold for those who are in grief or anxious fear. It is a time to make much af the help that lies in prayer and sac- rament. There will be need of ail the dynamic force of motive and spir- itual power we can draw upon. “This country goes into the war in order to help make the world ‘safe | for democracy.” It pehooves us, to far as in us lies, to Reep the situation in America safé for that democracy that is inherently essential to genuine catholicity. Recently a highly es- teemed brother told me he did not be-’ leve in social service, and, in his very language, betrayed a failure to under- stand what social service means for the church today. This time that calls for vigilnace to guard the hard- won gains in social progress ind polit- ical and economical freedom; vigil- ance to resist attempted evasion of laws framed to conserve the nation's’ strength, for example, as regards the labor of women and children, or any lowering of standards already at- tained, to resist all injustice and what- ever makes against fair relations be- tween man and men. Itisa time that calls for high-mindednéss ‘and large- heartedness, that s0, through the commo discipline of our experience as a nation, there may be etill futher set forward, deepened and strength- ened, the true democracy of Christian brotherhood. Thus let our loyal su | port of the nation’s ‘contest be co: structive in, preparation for some bet- ter thing God is preparing for the world. How to Meet the Crisis. “Yes! 'The momentous juncture in the world’s affairs is the. time for a new valuation of all valués which, putting the premium upon service, shall at once dignify and spiritualize labor, exalt above wealth the com- monwealth, and lift us all out of petty interests of self or of class into large, high thinking and plain living, self control and self-denial. It is a time to avoid waste of material and the waste of self-indulgence. As the world is confronted by a food crisis, it. becomes us, as Cristrians and as citizens, to enlist on the side of food production against what diminishes the food against strong drink, against the 'production and sale, at this time, of alcoholic .beverages which require the usé of food material in their man- ufacture. Shall we not each one of us, in the interest of conserving food- stuffs as well as of increased efficiency pledge ourselvgs to absain from alco- holic liquor as & beverage during the war? That would be & very small self-denial on behalf of a cause that is great and compelling in its appeal. “For the moral issue in this contest is very plain, In human history I do not recall’ a more signal tragedy than the lapse of an honored nation into lust of domination, its subjection to a sinister, and soul-less exaltation of might above right, its revoit from Christian principles and, reversion to pagan ideals, shown in ' deflance of moral law and in the ruthless and shamelessly brutal prosecution for warfare upon humanity, Crusade for Hallowed Ideals. “In solemnity and awe we under- take to contend on behalf of the civ- ilization resting upon law between nations that has been slowly built up thronq.: the | centuries, the public right that should endure from gener- ation to generation, 'the liberty that has been at such cost won, the sacred- ness of personal life bearing the image and superscription 'ot,God. the touch of humanity that came with the Wora made flesh, the brotherhood of men in Christ, No crusade for holy places was ever as sacred as this crusa for hallowed ideals. .The cause is clear as there is a living God. Let us loyally serve, trusting Him_ to help and ‘defend the right.” COLLEGIANS _ENLIST. 100 Mel-ben of University of Michi- gan Sign With Naval Volunteers, Chicago June 12.—Camp Paul Jones, of the Great Lakes naval sta- tion, was larger today by the ad- dition of 100 University of Michigan men, members of .J.

WANTS BYRON PUNISHED Hemipstead, President’ of Glsuts Olub, On the. Warpath and Insists That Arbitee Receive Penalty. New York, June 12.—If Harry Hempstead, president of the New York National League club has his way John McGraw will not be the only sufferer because of his little bout with Umpire Byron at Cincinnati jast Friday. Hempstead, who now is with the Giants in Chicago, sent word that he would see to it that Byron got some sort of punishment. Hempstead also said he would in vestigate the ons why the Giants -have had Byron and Quigley in five series, O’'Day In only one and Klem in only two prior to the present Chi- cago series. McGraw has sent to Presidenrt Tener a detailed statement of the Cincinnati affalr, accompanied Dy at- fidavits of reputable, unbjased per- sons, mostly Cincinnatl fans, who were spectators of the.row and tes- tified that Byron brought the blow on himself and that he insulted Mc- fore John J. _in Philadelphia for the and McGaw request has taken no action’ on statement -or Hempstead's that Byron be punjshed. ANOTHER DARCY? Aumlhnfi;—i\n. Look Upon fimhmwww Over in Australia they believe they have found another Les Darcy’ in Tommy Uren, the new middleweight champion who recently defeated Jimmy Clabby and Eddie- McGoorty. However, our Australian cousins should not be too optimistic about Uren just because he beat these two boxers. Everybody knows that Clabby as well as McGoorty are more or less back numbers and fast descending the ladder even whon Darcy beat them. One doesn’t like to spuk 11 of the departed, but the suspicion is rapidly growing that Darcy would not have lasted very long if he had been per- mitted to ‘meet some of the foremost ring artists in America with whom he amxiously sought bouts.
