Three big vaudeville acts were ' on the bill at the Davis theatre on Mon. day for the first half of the week, giv- ing unusual strength to that part of. the theatre's bill of vaudeville and motion_pictures. They began with John Moore and Co, in & musical sketch that was a pleasing noveity, It is entitled All Wrong and is one of the best that has been seen at the theatre. Johnson & Wells, a colored team appeared in a singing and danc- | ing specialty, which made a feature of the one man quardrille. Something £ood in the ventriloquil line was pre- sented by The Great Victor, who kept his audience puzzied and amused. On.the photoplay bill the big fea- ture of Mary Mary Pickford in a five Teel picture called Behind the Scenes, was presented, making one of the best things in this line that the theatre has shown.

Ellis, of 280 West Thames street, was showing an inter- esting souvenir of the Civil war, a pen- rack which he has made from _the horse’s bit used by Cavalryman Ben- jamin Terimas during his service of. three years and six months in a ‘Wisconsin regiment.

Keating De- livered Strong Sermon—Local Notes. The weekly Lenten service was held in St, Mary’s church on Tuesday ev- ening at 7.30 o'clock, before a large congregation. Rev. William H. Ken- nedy conducted the offering of the holy rosary, following which came the ser- mon delivered by Rev. Paul S, Keat- ing of St. Mary’s Church New London. Fr. Keating took his listeners in spirit to the upper chamber in Je- rusalem and showed them Christ ful- filling His promise to His apostles that they should have His own flesh and blood which was to be their food. It was the beginning of a sacrifice that they could not understand, following which came his entrance to the Garden of Gethesemanae with His band of apostles, one of whom had shown his errand of treachery. His prayer at that time was a real battle between the humanity and di- vintty of Christ. It was not sufficient to satisfy the infinite crimes of man against the justice of God, so He sends His only begotten Son—one ob- Jject of this Son was that He was to be the victim for the sins of man. As He kneels in the garden He is God as well as man. He, and He alone, can open the gates of heaven. He recites the sufferings which He must undergo on-the morrow and He cries out, “If it be possible let this chalice pass from my lips. It seems as if the divi nity has left humanity to fight for it- self. He goes back to His aposties in ihe garden to seek some comfort and finds them asleep and leaves them to watch and pray lest tempta- tion come upon them. What an awful mental struggle it must have been with Satan at hand to test His hu- manity and lay before Him the crimes and sins of man, for whom He was going to suffer. He seems. Crushed down as if He alone had com- mitted all the sins of humanity. His face turns towards the father and re- quests not to put His humanity = te such an awful test. The divine will if it is not possible they will, not mine, be done. In those words the sacrifice is completed, for He has willingly ac- cepted the great sarcrifice. Weo are the ones He was concerned about in the Garden of Gethsemanae. In kneeling in the garden each and every one of us, He asks us to con- fess our sins and do penance to attain the right to heaven. It was a very scholarly effort and the distinctness and choice language used edified the conzregation. Fr. Keating conducted benediction of the most blessed sacrament, hav- ing the assistance of Fr. Kennedy, St. Mary’s Holy Name Society. The_monthly meeting of St. Mary's Holy Name society was held in their assembly rooms on Tuesday evening at 215 with President Michael J. Curran in the chair. Much business was accomplished pertaining to the 8ood of the society. The literary com- mittee reported *on their plans for a smoker, while the sick committee re- ported on cases of sickness amongst the members. The Lirerary committee reported for. the evening's programme that His Henor Mayor Murphy had consented to address the society and when His Honor was introduced by President. Curran, the society gave him an en- thusiastic greeting. ~ The Mayors talk dwelt on Reminscences of Karly Days—35 years ago when he was a student in the Sunday school—the very room in which he was addressing the members. He described the size of the assembly room and the church Which was more than ample to meet the wints of the little band of Catho- lics then in town as the immigration from Ireland at that period was at & low ebb. He pictured the disadvantages of those days to the advantages of the present alone educational lines and the wonderful progress the church had made in Norwich, for which the pres- ent generation should feel deeply grateful. He stated that we all should take a just pride in our city and state. He placed the office of governor of our state ahead of that of congress or 2 seat in the senate, for the two great ies. were so closely united that it was only a question of the tariff which kept them from being as one—a ques- tion which they had been tryiny to solve for years. It was right and fit- ting in many ways that there should be two parties, although the Catholic church remains neutral on this point and recognizes neither. He next brought forth the matter of business ventures and what the signs of the times show in our larger cities. He advised the members to invest their money in a small way, for small beginnings- make great endings. He quoted examples local men who NON-SUIT MOTION WAS ARGUED: In $10,000 Suit Brought by M. J. Sousa Against New Lon- don Contractor—Judge Bennett to Give Decision on Motion Today—Settlement Reached in Suit -Brought Against East Lyme Artist. In tho superfor court at New Lon- don on Tuesday the first case assign- ed was that of Arthur Hanna Folsom and others vs, Louis Paul Dessar, an artist, but it was announced to the court that the suit was in process of settlement. It is alleged that Dessar who is a painter with a summer res- idence in Lyme, guaranteed to paint several pictures for the plaintiff within a certain time or forfeit a certain amount for failure to do so. The pic- tures. were not finished at the specified time and suit was brought for breach of contract. But the defendant clatms that he was given an extension of time. 2 Sousa vs. Douglas. With the Folsom vs. Dessar case out of the way the jury was called in for the case of Manual J. Sousa of New London against H. R. Douglas, Inc., for $10,000 damages for personal injuries which he received while In the employ of the defendant. Trial of the case was started shortly after 10 o'clock. Six of the 16 jurymen were excused from trial of the case and it was nec- essary to summon talesmen, after which the case was started. The plaintiff alleges that on Octo- ber 2, 1914, he was employed as a benchman in the carpenter shop of the defendant company. On that day he was ordered by the foreman, Charles, L. Wilson, to operats & buzz plane and while at work his right hand was caught in the machine in which four fingers were severed and the thumb badly cut. The defendant company is charggd with negligence and carelessness in ordering the plain- tift to operate the machine which was not part of his duties as benchman and in not equipping the machine with guards, Charles L. Wilson, foreman of the shop, testified that employes in a car- penter shop are classified as machine men, benchmen and helpers. He hired Sousa, who was Sent to him by Mr. Douglas, as a benchman. The witness then describeq the machine by which Sousa was injured. Wilson was followed on the stand by the plaintiff, who told of the cir- cumstances surrounding the accident, occupying the remainder of the morn- ing. He resumed the stand at 2 o'clock. When the evidence for the plaintiff was all in, the attorneys for the defendant presented and argued a motion for & non-suit which was an- swered by the attorney for the plain- tiff. Judge Bennett did not decide the motfon before court adjourned. The jury was sent out and excusea till 10 o'clock the next morning, while the arguments were made. The next case to follow the Sousa case, which is Hewitt vs. Hewitt, was put over till noon Wednesday, CHURCHES ARRANGE SERVICES FOR HOLY WEEK To Be Held in Five Different Church- es—Morning Service on Fast Day.

There were about 60 present and Rev. Richard R. Graham, Trector of the church, pre- sided at the devotional exercises which were opened at 8 o'clock. Rev, George B. Gilbert of Middle- town was the principal speaker of the evening and he gave a very inter- esting talk on Sunday school work, There was a general discussion of methods of teaching and social meth- ods. A committee comprising the rec- tors of Christ and Trinity Bpiscopal churches of this city, St. James' of Poquetanuck, and Grace church at Yantic was appointed to make ar- rangements for organization. At the close of the meeting refresh- ments were served by the young peo- ple of the church under the direction of the teachers. Rev. Philip M, Kerridge of New London, who was to have addressed the meeting, was detained at home by illness. The next meeting is to be held on April 2§ at St Andrew's ehurch. GOD KNOWS HOW TO RUN MEN. Rev. Dr. Slocum Draws a Lesson from Miss Margaret Newman, of New Lon- don. The affair took the form of a handkerchief shower for Miss New- man, whose engagement of merriage to Julian D, Moran has been previous- ly announced. The evening was plef- antly at whist, the first prize Being awarded to Miss Mary Garvey and the second prize to Miss Newman. Later refreshments were served by the hostess. Miss Newman is spending the week as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Francls T. Diggins, Bishop Hamilton at Methodist Church. Pishop John W. Hamilton, D. D., LL. D., resident bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church of the New England district, is to preach next Sunday morning at Trinity Methodist Episco- pal church. and thereby set a good example for their children. He contended that the sin of blasphemy was ome of habit more than being intentional on the part of the offender. Although the mayor's talk was along extemporaneous lines it proved good logic to the large number in attend- ance who felt honored at having him address them and he was accorded a rising vote of thanks for his excellent discourse, Presideit Curran then introduced John T. Sullivan one bof the most en- thusiastic members of the soclety, who gave a graphic description of Ireland —its cities, towns, rivers and scenery and ‘the grand part which the Irish soldiers played in the Civil war. He mentioned many ‘anecdotes in the 1i#: of General Shields, whom he had heard at Breed hall. Following this he gave a Book Review of the Catechism in announcing the questions of articles of faith from memory and answering the same. He electrifiéd his hearers with his knowledge of religion which Lo nad at his command. He recited a fow pleces of Irish poetry, following which the society gave him a. rising vote of thanks for his efforts. Rev. John H. Fitzmaurice, chaplain of the society, was the next speaker and he complimented the two previous speakers on their fine addresses and urged the members to be loyal to their church and to their country. A good Catholic is always faithful to _his church anq the community in which he lives and reflects that he is at ali times fair in his dealings with others. He took the opportunity to. remind Mayor Murphy that he took a fust pride in the soclety, the members of which he had always found ready’ to aid him in his parish work. He algo thanked Air. Sullivan for his fine talk and the lésson to be derived from it by_the members, It was one of the most successful meetings in the history of the soclety and much interest was taken in the programme, for which the literary committee were given a rising vote of thanks. President Curran announced had met with reverses and had come to the front again with the determina- tion to succeed, - 5 He complimented the Holy Name soclety, locally, and throughout the land on the great work which is being done and urged the members to live up well to the high ideals of the soclety, DO YOU SUFFER FROM BACKACHE? ‘When your kidneys are weak and torpid they do not properly perform their functions; your back aches and you do not feel like doing much of anything, You are likely to be despondent and to borrow trouble, just as if you hadn’t enough al- ready.

The old reliable medicine, Hood’s Sarsaparilla, gives strength and tone to the kidneys and builds up tke whole system, Get it today. that a_plan was on foot to form a male choir among the members who will render the singing on the month- ly communion days of the soclety. It is quite probable that the April meet- ing will be in the form of a smoker at Pulaski hall. Social at Shetucket Mill Club. About 125 attended the social given at’the Shetucket Mill elup Mandey evening on North Main street. Profr William Banfleld mystified his au- dience with clever sieight of hand tricks which made a big hit with them, Several vocal solos were rendered by Archibald P. MacDougal and O. W. Carpenter. The evening proved to be a very pleasant one and Secretary Brewer is planning on holding soms sort of entertainment every weels, ity Notes and Personals. Thomas Geoghegan of Somerville is passing a few days with Telatives here. The annual spelling contest was held at the Greeneville grammar school Tuesday. . The winner will be announced later. the Flow of a Brook. Brooks was the subject upon which Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., pastor of the Central Baptist church, spoke at the shop Llw held at the Cutlery plant at noon on Tuesday under the au- spices of the Y. M. C. A. “Combining business and pleasure,” said Rev. Dr. Slocum, “I took a stroll yesterday beyond the city limits. 1 crossed a bridge and looked down into & beautiful brook. The brook was in a hurry, but it did not, like Tennyson's brook, chatter as it flowed. It filled its banks with a volume as clear as crystal, and it hummed a litle tune as it swept along on its winding way through the meadow. It caught the blue of the sky and the shimmer of the sunlight, reflecting both, As I looked and thought, there suddenly came to mind a story of a brook that our old college professor told us. It was a story that he had evidently built up to Deoint a lesson more important than any mere scientific information that he might present. As nearly as I can re- call, the brook story ran something like this: “A brook dried up because no rains had fallen for a long time. A com- pany of men undertook to put that brook once more in operation. Along the seashore they built vast distilleries so that salt water might be converted into fresh water fit for a brook. Then they laid tracks and ran trains from theso tanks, conveying the distilled water up to the hilltops - along the course of the dried up brook. The trainloads of water were sent night and day for many weeks. Then one of the men visited the mouth of the brook where formerly, when the brook was operating by nature, a generous stream had shot into the sea. What was his surprise to find, after the vast ontlay of time and money and millions of gallons of water, a mere driwble of water down in the bottom of the brook bed. The man was disgusted with the almost invisible results of a whole summer’s labor and the expenditure of a fortune. He took the next train for some distant point along the Missiesip- pi and sat down to rest his tired brain. He looked with real satisfaction on the Father of Waters. Interested in fig- ures, he estimated that the river he saw in front of him was drawing its volume from about a million and a quarter square miles and that every minute, while he was standing there, sixty million cublc feet of water rushed past him. He was deeply impressed. He went back home to think it over, He decided even before he reached that spot that God knows much more about rucning a brook than man does. “And God knows more about run- ning men than they do. He is willing always to put His knowledge at our disposal. If any man lack wisdom let him ask of God. The trouble with the most of us is we think we can get along without God. Men, I tell you God cares for you and wants to help you, Let Him help, take Him into rinership. Get Him to help you take. are of yourselt and your families. He'll do it, and you will find in Him a friend and a brother and a Saviour. Problems Iin Narcotic Law. Deputy Collector of Internal Rev- enue William H. Farrell at New Lon- don had a problem put up to him Tuesday morning in connection with the anti-narcotic act which went into effect March 1, which he will pass on to headquarters for adjudicatio The law provides that the full name of a physiclan cribing & drug coming under this class and the full name of the purchaser shall be given to the druggist dispensing the article. The order or prescription must be signed by the physician. A druggist inquiring of the initials of the physician would answer; that is, if Dr. J. N. Jones would do or should it be Dr. John N. Jones? Of course in a small city every physician is known but in & larger one it is differ- ent and there might easily be two phy- sicians with the same last e and the same initials. hum-ll‘ara light is being FAITH TRUMBULL CHAPTER HELD OPEN MEETING Fanny Crosby’s D, A.
