The offertory was the stately and historic hymn of the Cath- olic church, Adeste, Fideles, recalling centuries of joyful Christmas morn- ings in cloistered monasteries, impos- ing cathedrals, missions in many a foreign land; a composition of peren- nial grandeur, and significance, and religlous tradition.

YOUNG-HALE MARRIAGE Of Interest ‘in Danbury, Where Bride Was a Successful Teacher. The Danbury News says: Miss Ruth Hale, of ‘Willimantic, formerly a member of the faculty of the state Normal school in Danbury, ‘was married in Willimantic on Mon- day to James M. Young, Jr., of Nor- wich. Miss Hale was domestic sei- ence teacher at. Normal and also had charge of the school dormitory. She was one of the most popular em- bers of the Normal school faculty and her resignation, which she tendered about six weeks ago, came as a sur- prise to the other members of the faculty and the students of the school. It was understood that Miss Hale was to become a faculty member of a Massachusetts Normal school and consequently the account of her mar- riage from the Willimantic edition of the Norwich Bulletin is of interest to her local friends and acquaint- and cos.
