Much interest is manifested in the yroposition presented at the special meeting of the New London court of common council Monday evening for the acquisition by the city of New London of the tract of land in Cedar Grove avenue, owned by the Mo estate to be used as an thletic fleld. The property is ideally located for the purpose, being within easy access of the center of the city and at the same time sufficiently remote note to cause annoyance to adjacent residents There is an urgent appeal for the securing of such a tract from institu- tions like the Vocational school, Bul- ley school, the Y. M. C. A., Civic league and the Playground a sociation. There is at present no sui able field available for athletic sports in New London and the lack of it has been keenly felt. The property could be procured for the moderate figure of $6,000 and such filling as is required could be done by the highway department at nominal cost. The character of th soil is such that after the heaviest rain the surface would be dry in an extremely brief interval. There room for two full size baseball dia- monds, a football gridiron and ter mile running track. A second proposition which meets with equal popular ffvor is that of acquiring a t bounded by B Vauxhall, Parker and Ledyard street quar- owned by Postmaster Bryan Ma- han, to be utilized as a public park.

Aid So- ‘AN ANCIENT PRACTICE Has a Lesson for Us in These D. of Profanity, Says Mission Preacher —Father Matthew at St. Patrick’s Church,” At 5.30 o'clock Tuesday morning a large congregation of women assem- bled in St. Patrick's church for the second week day exercises of the mis- sion being given by Franciscan Fa- thers from New York. The preacher was Father Chryoston on The Second Commandment. At 9 o'clock low mass was read by Rev. Myles P. Galvin of the parish and the preacher was Fatier Matthew, leader of the mission band. His topic was The Second Commandment: Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. Under the o0id law, the preacher said, so reverenced was the name of Jeho- vah, the Creator, that among all the tribes of Israel only once a year was it permittéd to be spoken, and then solely by the high priest. With what erence did the people assemble, prostrating themselves, while the hizh priest, in even greater reverence, en- tered the tabernacle and before the Ark of the Covenant invoked this name of might and power! Even in our day, men and women revere the mame of their parents; are hurt if these names are spoken siight- ingly. How much more o, then, should they resent the carelss speaking of that holy name of their Father, God, of their Divine Redeemer, Jesus Christ! Three Classes of s, Sins against the eecond command- ment are divided into three classes— swearing, cursing and blasphemy. Swearing is the calling of God to witness anything we do or promise to perform. The commonest expressions are “So help me God,” “I call God to witness,” and the like. There are times when to ewear is not only pd but honorable. For instance the most solemn acts of a president of these United States, on the day of his inauguration, is to swear, his hand on the holy Eible, to perform his dutics as chief exgcutive of this nation faith- fully, to the hest of his ability; and this is a worthy action since it shows to the world that America is a nation recognizing God - and acknowledging dependence upon His power. Again, In courts, there are times when swearing is a lezal and proper act; and to swear falsely is a sin against God and the law of the land, known as perjury, and severely penal- ized. To sweur either honestly or falsely can be done also without speaking a word; if a witness merely places his hand upon the Bible, it is calling God to witness, through His holy book, to the truth of tae testi- mony given. Deplorable Prevalence of Perjury. ‘The preacher deplored the preva- lence of perjury in American courts, insomuch that a certain leading judge bas recently declarcd that it would be most a benefit to cease having wWit- nesses swear before giving testimony since fully one-half the oaths taken are_perjury. The seriousness of thus invoking the name of the Almighty as a witness to what is virtually o lie was pointed out by Father Matthew. Uncirristian Parents. The second sin against the second commandment, cursirg, is the calling upon God to work harm to some crea- ture. Such terrible demands as “May God strike you blind!” and the like were cited as horrible examples of th sin. In their thoughtlessne: and 3 ger even parents sometimes curse their children, something one can scarcely credit. The blessing of a parent means 5o much: a_parent's curse is so terri- ble! = The malice ‘of this sin was con- demned at length. The Prayer of Reparation. Then_there ig the too common fault of taking the name of God in vain in ‘missible irreverently that holy namec of Blessed Savior and Redeemer. The preacher exhorted his hearcrs to do all in their power to discourageé this terrible sin, to protest against it; and when, as 80 often happens, one's ears are offended by cursing and irrever- ence when on the strect, to seek to make reparation for such profanity by saying a little prayer in the heart, if oniy the three words “My Jesus, mer- cy!” in atonement for such vile spcech and to repair. in some measure, for the outrage against the Almighty. To Slight the Bible Blasphemy. Blasphemy, the third sin against the second commandment, is, fortunate less common than are the other two sins. A person blasphemes who should say “God is nct just!” or “The Bible is a book of fables,” thus denying that the inspired book is God's holy word. Names to Be Cherished. Instead of ihis careless and irrever- ent use of names which mean so much to the thoughtful Christian, especially the name of God, which is.the one visible, concrete sign we have of the Creator ,infinite, hence not to be repre- sented by any finite form, the source of all things, without beginning and wit out end, the preacher admonished his congregation rather to cherish s name, and the name of Jesus, and to speak both only in prayer, or with the greatest revercnce, So that at the hour of death, when there will be but brief time for utiering prayers, when the mind is faillng, from the habit of a lifetime .the dying lips will pronounce with love and confidence that only one name under heaven whereby men may be saved. the Evening Services. The evening preachengwas TFather Matthew, whose subject was Death. At the evening services the choir, directed by Organist Frank L. Farrell, sings several hymns, singing also dur. ing the time of the benediction of the blessed sacrament, which ends each evening’s exercises. Children’s Mission. Father Seraphim is conducting the mission for children at 4 o'clock cach afternoon, many boys and girls attend- ng.
