He ‘Dased his remarks on Luke’s account of the rich young man who asked of Jesus what he sbould do to inherit Gternal life. The speaker sald there were neza- tive as well as positive tests to which Jesus put the young man: he meas- ured up to the former but failed to ‘measure up to“the latter; he could truly say that he had observed the commandments but when Jesus tested him on' the positive side he falled. The Master asked him to get away from his money which was the one thing that hindered, but he was un- willing to be made worthy of eternal life. The real thing that. hindered was himself, and when Jesus sald “come and follow me” he went away, Sorrow- ful and in doing this he made the sreat refusal and we never hear of him_afterwards, What & gospel he might have written; what might he have done; what lives he might have blessed if omly he had’ gitten away T verotens il had charge sf the a. mervice; Hugh Kinder acted as chor- ister and J.

Myles P. Galvin consid- ered ‘these’ as amons the many ‘n- stances of the Saviour's love and com- passion during His earthly life and ministry. Not only was Our Lord tender toward and compassionate with those who sought His heip then, but He foresaw the millions who wouid need that same help during the > come, and provided that ald compassion and heartening b ing men His Body in the Ho charist, as daily food for their soulx.

Father Galvin stated that, with the permission of Rt. Rev. John J. Ni- lan, bishop of the diocese, there is to be a special collection next Sunday in ald of the war work begun so patri- otically\by the Knights of Columbus. When' this great work was first ¢ cided upon, the national body of the Knights themselves centributed at once about $800,000. Tt has been de- cided that the sum of $3.060,000 will be needed to carry on the projecied world which includes not only pro- viding recreation centers in the va ous federal camps. but meeting the spiritual needs of the men in serv by supplying where the goyernment can not appoint chaplains. This is a matter which every Catholic, since ev represented in some way in t! tion's forces. through relatives, The contribution for such should be a manifestation of both pa triotism and reiigious zeal, indicatinz to the boys in camp or at the front that they -are not forgotten same time, the zencrosity of such offering will zreatly aid the Knizht Columbus, who certainly should not expected to assume the cntire bur- den of such a_sizantic. tak Persopally, Father Galvin hoped that ‘next Sunday’s would prove the largest ever St. ‘Patrick’s church. *The day tells of the canture of American sol- diers and is proof that America sctually in the war.

It is to reduce this waste and make more efficient the work alread done and the work that will be under. taken in the future that the Commit- tee on Woman's Activities has Lteen established. The committee also is anxious to get the services of _any women In the state wijling to help in ar work who are not members of other organizations. he statement issued by the com- mittee, through the state council’s pub- |licity committee, follows: he purpose of the Committee on Woman's Activities of the Connecti cut State Council of Dafense is to or- ganize the women of tiie state so that they may be made use of in time of need.

It the women of the country are to owrk ot any purpose they must avold du- plication of work and all confusion arising from lack of cor-ordination. The Committee on Woman's Activities throush whom unified work Is to be made possible, and will be informed of the ways and means by which the or- Zanized women of the state can best serve.
