Predictions from the New York Her- ald: On Monday it will be partly over- ¢ast ana slizhily milder, preceded by rain or snow, with brisk, variable winds, strong on the coasts, followed by cléaring. The outlook for Tuesday is generally fair and colder. Observations in Norwich.

Dr. Slocum began by saving that he would not attempt to discuss fools in general as that would be too large a subject; that the three to whom he wished to call especial attention would suffice, and that even in the case of _Saturday— Ther.

Addressing his im- mortal soul, he insulted it by the as- sumption that material things were sufficient for its nurture. Here was his stupendous folly. And it is just at this point. that we need to take warning. In an age that is so strongly materialistic, we must be careful that we do not substitute corn for Christ. The body needs wholesome food, but the soul needs Christ; and any man who undertakes to live without Christ is making the great mistake of the centuries. 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by évery word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. The Right Kind of Fool. The third fool was one of the wisest men who ever lived in the tude of times. He was no other than Paul, the great apostle of the Gentiles. | dressing _the Corinthians, this man wrote: “Fools for Christ sake.” In | other words, willing to be insulted, despised, scoffed at, rediculed, stoned and ready to meet death itself if only the cause he represented might go { forward. That is the kind of a fool worth while. Probably Paul was hu# man enough to recoil from the slan- ders of his fellow men; hut he was 8o devoted to the cause of'his Lord, that the reproaches that were unde- | servedly hurled upon him only served to drive him closer to Christ, When people, caught in the evil currents of life, pointed at him the finger of scorn and hissed out the word “Fool,” Paul ly smiled a sad smile and replied: 'Yes, a fool for Christ's sake.” This is the only one of the three kinds which we have been considering that I recommend to you men The first two will serve as a background for the last. Dr. Slocum appealed to the men to be willing to accept the kind of ser- vice that would make them com- panions of Christ. He closed with an interesting fllustration of the danger of getting so closely knit up with the material affairs of this life as to lose one’s hold on God. A man living on the shores of Lake Chautaugua s: a fishhawk plunge from a great height down upon his prey. There was a short battle between feathers and fins and the bird rose a thousand feet with a big muskellunge in his talons. The man expected to see the bird fly straight away from that point to his nest upon the mountain's brow, but instead, the bird began to sink back towards the lake. Slowly at first and then more and more rapidly until at length he struck the water. The man got a boat and found the bird and the fish still locked together, and both dead. The fish was too big and the claws of the were _hopel, locked. There is danger that our affections and interests so e gled with the things of this world that we will lose our gri God and at the same time find crip on ma- terial things beyond power to break.

Godard Was recently sent a copy of & news- paper printed in Norwich in 1848, cali- ed The Paixhan Gun, and devoted to the fight against the liquor traffic, The contents are quaintly worded, and sometimes touch the vein of humor that' lies in most of us. The intro- ductory paragraph, placed in the up- per left hand corner of the front page reads thus: “This paper has been projected, and will be edited; by an assoclation of temperance men, and will appear at such intervals as they think best, and at such a price as shall be stamped under its title. The present issue will be two cents a copy; if the next be of the same size, it probably will not be more than that. Possibly it may be given away.” Concerning the kind of news to be printed, the editor has the following to announce, under the caption, “Af- fairs out of Town": “Probably this paper will be prin- cipally filled with matters of local ir terest; but now and then we may take a look abroad. Any information, therefore, of out-of-town affairs will be_gladly received—and used as cir- cumstances permit.” Chronioles. On_one of the inside pages appear the Norwich “hronicles,” reading in part as follows: 1. And it came to pass in the days of James, of Tennessee, that the mea of Bacchus, In a certain place called Norwich, did prosper exceedingily. 2. And they rejoiced in their hearts and said: “In this day of our prosper- ity we will lay up goods for many Yyears and then we will take our ease, eat, drink and be merry. 3. But in the midst of their rejoic- ings an evil spirit came upon them, and many of them did drink and were drunken; insomuch that they spewed, and fell, and rose no more. 4. Notwithstanding many yet lived who put the bottle to their neighbors’ lips and made them drunken. But it came to pass when they had waxed strong and began to say within themselves that they should liv- forever, behold there arose an inquiry among the people if nothing could be done to put away the great evil from their midst. Chap. L 1. And it came to pass that they had been appointed to watch against the men of Bacchus were in a sore perplexity. 2. Because no grand juror could be found who would make: complaint against them for any of their evil deeds. 3. For the men of Bacchus had sent messengers to the lawyers and the men in anthorit: 4. Saying, * , ve lawyers and chief men, if these temperance folk prevail against us we shall be used up, and ye yourselves will also come to nought.” For it is by our mutual business the people mourn and are made that poor. 6. Now, see, if ye will not harm us, we will piay into your pockets as we have aforetime, and ye shall have great wealth. 7. Moreover, if ye will not hearken to them, nor obey their voice, we wil supply you with the creature, without charge, all the days of your liv 8. And this did please the lawyers and chief men exceedingly, and made them smack their 1 9. And they replied, “As ye have desired. so shall it be.” 10. And it came to pass that the of Bacchus waxed fat more and for them bec men 11, But as they were mourning over (hese things, behold certain men came and said that in Greeneville there was a man of the tribe of Welden, sur- named Jacob, who was a grand juror, whom they could employ, if they would. no man could lay hands on se of the lawyers and chief Then they said with one voice, “Him will we emplo 13. And when it was noised abroad that Jacob had undertaken against the men of Bacchus, lo they began to be sore afraid and said, “Now we must do work by stealth, or we shail get and maybe then we shall, for is up to snuff very much.” 14. Now for the rest of the doings na the action of the Bacchus men, shall it not come out in the Paixhan Gun The paper did not hesitate to in- dulge in personalities or to mention names of local men in ways that were far from complimentary. our nabbe this man TOWN OF GROTON CLAIMS DAMAGES OF $6,000 For What Drifting Barge Did to Bridge It Lifted from Place. The town of Groton has instituted a civil action against the James Mc- Williams Blue Line company of New York. claiming damages for injuries to the highway and trolley bridge be- the village of Mystic and the town of Stonington when, on Thanks- giving day, a barge became fast under e bridge and as the tide rose the barge lifted the draw out of place, and occasioned other damage.

The suit s returnable before the superior court first Tuesday in January, 1914. During the night of the 25th inst. the McCarthy, which was coal laden. and moored at the irolley company's wharf, broke adrift and floated to the bridge, the tide being low at the time. Because of this condition the craft grounded on a sand bar beneath the draw. When the tide rose the barge was lifted against the bottom of the draw, raising it several inches. It is also ‘alleged that gzirders were des- troved, were the planking, piers, as abutments and overhang. Trafic over the bridge by trolley was interrupted for a couple of days.

KING’S PUREMALT DEPARTMENT 86-38 HAWLEY ST., BOSTON MORALITY OF THE BARNYARD. Exemplified in So-Called Animal Dances, Rev. J. H. Broderick Telis St. Patrick's Holy Name Society— Catholics Urged to Combat Them. About 400 members of the Holy Name soclety of St. Patrick’s church assembled in the basement chapel Sunday morning at 7.25, and, headed by their officers, marched to the church auditory, entering the middle aisle, where all the pews had been re- served for them. They received their quarterly communion in a body, after their rector, Rev. John H. Broderick who celebrated the low mass, had giv. en them a brief but timely sermon from the epistle for the first Sunday in Advent, Rom. xiii, 11-14, choosing as his text, “Therefore cast off the works of dar) and put on the armor of light.” In the course of his instruction Fath- er Broderick called upon the members of all Catholic societies to discounte- nance in every possible way the pop- ular animal dances, so-called, signifi- cant, he said, of the morality of the barnyard, which are evil in their source and effect. He declared that parents who permit their children to attend dancing schools where such n dances ar ight are virtually 1g them over to the evil one. St warning tc Romans, to de- om_“chambering and impurity repeated were the apos to modern society, the and much of the evil of in and is incit- might well be tle to speak preacher said ed by t indecent dances.
