Grumbly Condemns Club Practice Resumed With Coming of Fall—Preaches on Sabbath Observ- ance, bk AT Preaching at St Patrick's church vesterday, the sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost, from the gospel for the day, Luke xiv 1-11, Rev. Thomas A. Grumbly’'s theme was the proper ob- servance of Sunday. Especially did he censure tho employment of the.day of rest for unlawful or vicious pleas- ures, condemning gambling, which certain clubs resume with the advent of the fall season, and the practice of some parents of starting off with their children for a day’s outing an hour or two before the time for church ser- vices. , 3 The sacrifice. of the mass, he said, is a figure of the sacrifice of Calvary and those who remain away from it are of the same type as were the Jews who turned away from Christ's sacrifice, indifferent. anxious to_get back to their worldly pursuits. They ignore the Mediator between aveng- ing_justice and our sins. The offertory selection was Dubois” Ave Maria, sung with taste and care- ful phrasing by Miss Florence North- rop.
