This is probably the last time Rev. Mm Telford will ad- dress the men during his stay in Nor- wich and his farewell message was listened to with a wood Qeal of inter- est. Rev. Mr. Tedford chose as the sub- ject of his talk, The Eermon on the Mount. He eaid it is a recognized fact that Jesus thought of three great | things during his stay on earth. The first was_God, his second though was Man, and the third thought was His Kingdom and man in that kingdom. { Near the end of his ministry, said Mr. Mr. Tedford, we flnd that Jesus was endeavoring to leave with his disciples a clear conception of the heavenly kingdom. No life can be filled with the right- eousness of God until it is pure. In the sermon on the mount Jesus pleads for the consciousness of the deep need of God. For those who are of the kingdom of God, there Is a great work, for Airst, “Ye are the salt of the earth. That is, the Christian’s life is a pre- servative life in the communit. He also reveals the fact that “Ye are the Light of the World.” We are to en- lichten men with the great truths of Christianity, the facts of Christlan- ity in all its great essentials, The first great essential of worship is the in- dividualized gi€t, that is, the gift of the individual of his life to God. The second great essential of worship is the form of praver. God hearing vour prayer in secret will reward you open- Iy " General Secretary Hill announced that the Bible study for men will be resumed on Tuesday evening at 7.15 o'clock. The meeting is for all men in the city whether they are members of the association or not. The meet- ings will close about 8 o'clock thus ai- lowing the men to keep other engame- iments, FUNERALS Mrs. David Torrance.

F. W. Coles man of Trinity Methodist church, A ter an anthem by the Central church guartette, prayer was offered by Rev. E. S. Worcester of Broadway church. For the offertory there was a well ren- dered duet by George A, Turner, tenor, and James L. Case, ba The _sermon for the evening was by Hev. H. J. Wyckoff of the Second church, who spoke impressively upon the subject, The Pearl of Great Price, using the text Matthew 13, 45-46: The kingdom of God is like unto a man who is a_merchant seeking goodly pearls; who when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all he had and bought UNION SERVICE Baptist Church—Rev. H. J. Wyckoff the Speaker Upon Theme The Pearl of Great Price—United Choirs of Four Churches Led the Singing. Some will say that the reconstruc- tion of the soclal order was that which had been lost which Jesus came to save, said the speaker, but His concep- tion ‘went deeper than reaching to the salvation of the individual, the recon- struction of the human soul which is fundamenta], Rev. Mr. Wyckoft went on to draw a parallel between the formation of the pearl in the oyster and the process of the development of the finest traits along Christian lines in the human soul. Sometimes this process of pearl formation is arrested and the result is only the seed pearls, which are practi- cally valueless, They are comparable to the better things which have once started to develop in the life of the soul but have never reached the worth of the pear] of oreat price. Jesus was always urging that men give Him their all, that their souls might show the lustre of the pearl of great price. A consecration service conducted b: Rev. Dr. J. B. “locum, was held after the close of the sermon, and there was also a short after service in the praver meeting room of the church.

It was about noon when a shot flnally keeled Reynard over. In company with Mr. Potter was Samuel Lester of Ledyard with his noted fox hound, Buci. Just as they killed the first fox they got a glimpse of another, which had evidently been running with this one, hough the hunters had not known were running two at once.

W. A, Keefe Commenting on New York Newspaper Article, In its Connecticut edition on Sunday the New York Herald said: The more than ten thousand mem- bers of the Knights of Columbus in Connecticut are stirred as Columblan circles have not been in many years over an appeal which has just been eirculated in behalf of the candidacy of the Rev. William A. Keefe of Plainfield for state delegate to the national counecll of the order. The announcement of Father Keefe's candidacy has developed at once a sit- uatlon which presents two features of an unprecedented nature in Columbian history in Connecticut. It also is sig- nificant, it is said, of an attempt to revolutionize the policy of the state organization, especially in its attitude toward the national administration of the Knights of Columbus. One disregard of precedent is the direct appeal to members of the order in Connecticut to support a particular candidate for state dolegate. It has been the custom for the delogates to the state council to select the dele- gates to the national council from the floor. Candidates have been worked up under cover heretofore, but {n no cir- cumstances, it is said, has formal an- noupcement of any candidacy been made prior to the convening of the state council Another novel phase of the situa- n, which renders 1t exceedingly em- barraesin~ and delicate, it is said, is the clerical character of the candidate, whose cause, instead of being promoted covertly, is openly espoused in such a manner as to make the bid for hls support formidable. The significance of the fying in the face of precedent in the announcement of Father Keefe's candidacy for state deiegate and in the appeal in his be- half, it is £aid, is a movement to nega- tive the power of the -resent state ad- ministration and, by sending a divided delegation to the national council, to drive the entering wedge for piacing Connecticut in the insurgent class in national councils. Many Knights throughout the state y that ihe circular apeal for Father Keefe bears vivid testimony to the de- recognition from _the counci which will be held in Hartford on the first Tuesday in May. The appeal is in the form of a ciipping from The Norwich Bulletin. IFather Keefe was ner curate of a parish in Nor and the Columbian council there wich has indorsed his candidacy. Norwich is the home of John Lee, fourth degree master of the Knights of Columbus, and throusl Lee's influence, it is said, Fatr fo was appointed a lecturer of ti Fa- ther Keefe has lectured before most of the counc in the state, and his con- sequent accuaintance with many mem- bers of the order is of considerable ac- ount as an aid to his candidacy for delegate to the great national 41 to be held in Seattle, Was! he Panama cxposition. reported, but not offic: the administration leaders will pi: ~andidate in opposition to Yeefe in the person of the Rev.

Evidences are ccumulatic g daily that such a st would engender the most rivalry that a Columbian convention in Connecticut has seen in man: Already there is the nest di ssion, although in no way bitter tonéd of the nrosvect of the clergymen’s rival can- lidacies. Nothing Revolutionary,” Keefe. A Bulletin representative called upon r Keefe at St. John's rectory in eld Sunday and asked him if he had reac the article in the New York Herald.
