Good Collection Toward Liberty Bond At St. James’' church Sunday, at all the masses, a collection was take to buy Liberty loan bonds in the name The collection baskets were piled high with the eontributions In the afternoon Rev. M, J. Ginet, M. S, pastor, said that the collection had not then been totaled, but it appeared to be very good, notwithstanding that the bad storm of the day undoubtedly had kept away from giving many, who will have their chance this week. The hope of the parish is to raise at least $1,000 for the Iiberty loan, the bonds to be held in the name of the parish. In the last loan $1,000 was raised in the same way, and the incentive to give is of the parish. of the parishioners. greater now than ever. To Attend F, B, L. Convention. Charles B.

The cars were driven by John Fitz. gerald of the town of Brooklyn and Ray ‘Smith of Ballouville: - The cars met almost head-on and Smith's switched about, slewed areund and headed into the embankment. The tangle had not been straightened out when a motorcycle swept along and crashed into one of the'machines. This machine was numbered Conn, 1901, and is owned by a young man resident in Geodyear, whose name had not been obtained up to Sunday by the officials, but who will have an oppertunity to do some explaining in the “very near future.

Must Work te Secure Bond Quota Whiie Liberty bond sale totals were not definitely known in this seetion at the close of the week's business, it ap- neared quite eertain that tremendous- ly active work must continue here during the present week in erder that the town of Putnam may reach up te Hts apportionment before the close of the loan on May 4. In other townms of the district good work that has been conduycted is being continyed, even in tcwns where the apportionment bas heen met. This is particularly true in Pomfret, where a drive is on te double the town's apportionment, ENTHUSIASTIC WAR RALLY AT BRADLEY THEATRE Rev, William A, Keefe and Judge Ed. gar M. Warner the Speakers—Held Under Auspices of K. of C. a Notwithstanding the very bad wea- ther of Sunday afterncom, there was a large audience at Bradley theatre to attend the war rally arranged under the auspices of Cargill council, K. of C. The speakers were Rev, W. A, Keefe, who delivered his remarkably inspiring address upen Patriotism, and Judge Edgar M. Warner of this city who enthysed the audiepce with his address on Over the Top. The Liberty chorus sang during the rally, which is epected to produce splendid results this week in increased -subscriptions for Liberty bonds. Cargill council is engaged in a special way .in this drive and doing a large bit to see that Put- nam goes over the top strong, when the final flgures are announced. Judge Warner's Address Judge Warner, in his address, said: 1 feel honored by the invitation from this splendid organization of Knights of Columbus to speak -at a patriotic rally. Furthermore I feel glag. and proud to speak on the samé€ platform with such an eloquent and graceful orater, such a true hearted, faithful Catholic priest as Father Keefe, of Plajnfield, May this great audience comp of citizens of Putnam and elsewhere, including members of all churches and parties, animated by one glorious purpose of devotion te the best flag in all the world, be typica} of that nable union of effort which shail carry this nation, “Over the Top” to win this war! True Religion. I want to call your attention' o a practical application of true religion. A recent issue of a Hartford paper gives this story abolit Chaplain Jeseph Twichell, One day Chaplain Flynn came to Mr, Twichell's quarters and said: “I am going to asy you some- thing, it may sound rather strange, and vou may net think that I have n a right to do 80" “Go ahead, go ahead, I've heard Jots of strange things,” Mr. Twichell said. “Well,” the priest continued; “you know when a Catholie boy is dyins, if he is able to do so, he kisses a crucifix and has the prayers for the dying read, which he repeats, if he can, These rites of ex- treme unction mean much to the Cath- clic hoy. Would you be willing to ad- minister these rites to a dying Catho- lie bflr if there was no Catnolic priest = ‘Of course you know ‘my answer,” Mr. Twichell gaid, “ did not. hesitate a moment to assent!” Union, of Effert.

Let me speak a word of caution in,| connection with ‘Chaplain Twichell “One of the worst things that the chaplains have to fight,” he said, “one of the hardest duties, the thing that causes us and the officers more trou- ble than anything else, the hardest thing that the enlisted man has to bear, are those letters from home. Mothers, sweethearts and sisters Write to their boys at camp and tell them how sorry they are that they cannot be home. They write disgraceful let- ters, which depress the men greatly. They tell the soldier how much they miss him, and how they grieve that he is not with the family at home.” This is a_great mistake, This phrase “over the top” is the order given to charge the German lines and it means the putting forth of the very last ouncp of strength in any contest. Connectieut in every crisis has done this. This war has forced the states and the United States to ex- amine its-title deeds as to rights, priv- fleges-and duties. Mankind has dur- ing all the ages been going “over the top” in the fight for liberty. History is made up of the story of these wars. The history of Connecticut is very Instructive. We have the first writ- ten constitution and in the early years of the colonies Connecticut leq the way in forming safe, secure, eenstitu- tienal gevernment. Enduring, safe government making the world safe for demoeracy demands certain easily de- fined characteristics. Significance of State Flag. I want to call your attention to the state flag of Connecticut. You will notice the three vines which Lieut. Eumphries, aide de camp, of Washing- ton, says signify Knowledge, Liberty, Religion. These lie at the foundation of our state. Let us examine these principles of our civil afd pelitical life. “Knowledge, that which facilitates self-conquest, intensifies individuality, unfolds and uplifts manhood, breeds habits of thinking, feeling, doing, emancipates, humbles, and civilizes. It searches for truth, loves the heautiful, desires the good and- does the best.” ‘We see this carried out in our free public schools, our free churehes and our free press and free speech,” Liberty, that freedom of action, pub- lic and private, which permits the highest development of the individual. Religion, that vision splendid which, revealing the hrotherhood of man, links him also with the Divine, and raises him into relation with the Infi- nite. These three must not bé separ- ated. They must grow together, for knowledge without liberty or religion, becomes 2 torment, and man is a pris- oner chaffing against his bars. Liberty without” knowledge or religon, degen- erates into license and anarchy. Re- ligion without knowledge and liberty becomes bigotry and superstitution. Connecticut Proven True. Men actuated by these prineiples cannot fail to carry on a safe govern- ment. In any test Connecticut has proved true. In the war of the revo- lution when liberty was in danger, Connecticut under Governor Trumbull furnished more men and more money in proportion to population than any other colony. Under our splendid war governor, William A. Buckingham of Norwich, Connecticut in 1861-4, furnisheq more men and money in proportion to popu- lation than any other state, Equal to Governor Trumbull or Gov- ernor Buckingham in energy, resources and splendid 100 per “cent, patriotism, our noble war governor, Marcus H. Holcomb, has placed Connecticut in the front rank of all the states in war | measures. It may be truthfully said that the state of Connecticut has done efficiently everything it has been call- ed upon to do—and more. WESTFIELD CHURCH Special Address by Rev.
