Galvin was required. ing from the epistle for the Sunday, the third after Easter, I Peter 10, 11-19 Rev. Father Broderick chose as his fext, Fear God; Honor the King. He explained how this ad- monition of St. Peter summarizes the duty of the citizen. The fear of God, the Scripture says, is the begin- ning of wisdom. The man who fears God will acquire that wisdom which sees in government divinely institut- ed authority, to which he will show muw, even to the sacrifice of his Th. same epistle enjoirs: Let your conversation be good among the Gentiles; that whereas they speak against you as evil-doers, they may, by the good works which they shall behold in you, glorify God. Latter-day Gentiles, the preacher said, are prone to allege that a consist- ent Catholic cannot fear God, obey his church and be loyal to his country; but this charge, which has been refut- ed in every crisis from Lexington to Vera Cruz, is apt to be made chiefly by those Gentiles who are invincible in Mu:e_.bu! invigible in war.

Sunday afternoon at the Y. M. C. A. Rev. H. Strouse of the First Baptist church addressed the men's and boys’ meeti held together. Speaking on the Hidden Treasure and the Pearl of Great Price. He empha- sized the fact that Christian life was a daring adventure and when Christ left his father's home and came to this earth it was a daring thing. The hedrt of Christ warms up to the man who is willing to sacrifice for him. The man in the parable doubtless had other treasures but he was willing to part with them all in order to obtain the greatest of treasures and likewise the pearl of great price. The master has little use for the man who is always on the fence. "The speaker said he would rather be a pastor in a church one year and make something move than be a pastor, twenty and do noth- ing. The Christian life is a strenuous one and demands all the grit that one possess; often it leads to hardships, but it pays in the end. In other words to follow the leadership of the Christ, is indeed a man’s job. The attendance was large and at- tentive to the address. Waldo S. New- bury presided at the piano. WALKED FROM OCCUM TO FISH HERE Thirteen Year Old Bey Found on the Streets by Policeman Fenton.

The boy bad a bamboo fish pole and a can of forms with him and said he had been fishing at the dock and was going to walk back to Occum. He sald he had walked down from there, fishing along the way. As the boy seemed to need care the officer took him in charge. Capt. D. J.

The service Sunday was a fitting close to this winter's programme of beautifu! religious music and the knowledge that this would be taken from tha oratorio Paul by Mendels- sohn caused people from all parts of the city who are interested in these masterpieces of the old musicians to avail themselves of the opportunity to attend.

John H. Carney who has been in charge of the work of putting them in completed the wir- ing some time ago and the boxes were all put up and connected on Sunday to the board of police headquarters, giving nine signal boxes now in the police system. The five new boxes are located as follows: On North Main street oppo- site the electric light station: on Main street just across the Preston bridge, near the watering trough at the Frank- lin street park, on Washington square, and on Thames street at the Richmond Radiator company. It was expected by the police com- missioners that they would be similar to the old ones in use and they are except in ome particular. They have no signal light which can be flashed upon the pole to call an officer when he is wanted by police headquarters. It was found that boxes with the sig- nal drop like the old ones were no longer manufactured, although in- quiries for them were sent to many dealers in all parts of the country. The officers on the beats will report in from the boxes to headquarters ev- ery time their rounds on their beats bring them to a box so that they wili be in touch with police headquar- ters much better than they ever have ‘before, EXTENSIVE BRUSH FIRE.
