As is his custom—one which has resulted in theusands of total abstaniners in the diecese—he then administered the total abstinence pledge to the candidates, to be hind- ing until they reach the age of 25. Tt is the theory of the Catholic church that the habit of total abstinence from intoxicating liouors, formed up to this year in a youth’'s life will be like- Iy to be continued in the large ma- Jjority of cases.

Sept. —The cattle pa- rade and the awarding of prizes Sai- urday were the feature evenmts at the iwo day fair at Mansfield which came| to & closs vesterday. The exhibits at tha fair t ear were better and larger than those at any fair pre- ous. Ranking high among the ex- hibits were' those of the Junior de- partment made up of the school chil- drén. The Connetcicut Agricultural College exhibit at the fair was large but it did not compste for prizes. e fair officially opened at 1] m.

Mr. Cord's talk was illustrated by drawings done by hand while speaking to his audience the objects drawn being different kinds i of birds. Aftér completing the lec- ture Mr. Cord offered his drawings for sale and they were- cargerly hought. The many exhibits enfered by people of the town including from. the women's department vegetables. fancy work, fruit, mehs of heme canning. poultry, registered - cattle, registered Jerseys and Hoisteins, workin® oxem, horses, both working and driving. sheép, swine. bees, grain flowers, and farming tools. Two Willimantic denlers in automobiles al- son had exhibits at the fair. Thé attendance at the fair this vear was large rthan usual and as this was the first time the people of the town have held a two day fair it is hoped that the plan will be adonted for the coming year. The Mansfield fair found its Birth in the annual exhibitions of the school children and since then the fair has grown until it includes ex- hibits fro maill residents in the town. There is no midway at the fair and no | horse reeing takes piace. The fair is simply a timeé when the men of the town of Mansfield send in their pro- duce. and the wosmen canned goods and needlework. and compete for pri és for the best in each class. The of- ficery of the fair this year are T. H Savage. president: L. J. Storrs, vice president: A. J. Brundage, secretary, and A. E.

A. build ternoen, when an audience of sailors and several civilians assembled at the popular get-together. Several selections by Swahn's or- chestra delighted the audience, and the singing of the popular songs and, hymns was énteréd into heartily. After a brief reading of scripture and pray- er, Rev, George H. Strouse delivered .r-\d.?‘mflfl that was Doth interesting a nspiring. ‘The Man Whe Coula Not Be Bought was the topic 6f Rev. Mr. Strouse's ad- would net out and T am proud of them. When national hibition was declared to be & fact congress and forty-five out of forty- eight states, the liquor men decided to stage a last and t effort to defeat the will of the people and save their traffic. They appoached an_ eminent {Jurist. ex-governor of New Yorik and recently a presidential candidate. They were after big fish and prepared bix bait. They wrote a check for $150.000 and placeq it with their proposition befors the eminent lawyer. In sub- stance this was the answer given by Charies Evan Hughes: “I would not champion this case before the court for any sum of money you could name. No, never.” Mr. Hughes was not for sale. Theéy made Mr. Taft a preposition but instead of sending a check for $150.000 they handed him a signed blank check and invited him te fill in any amount he chose and it should be hie. In substance this is what Mr. Taft said: “Gentléemen, you couldn't pile enough gold on this continent to induce me to take yopr case before the courts and before the public. for T will have you know, my consacience is mot for sale.” “Until we ook through a tolescope we can't see the beauty and power of the starry heavens. Now why is it | that- so many of us treat Jesus with such a4 contemptible indifference? T am sure if men would leok through the telescoi%> of reason that fine fae- ulty with which God %ss endowed each one of us, we would see the full-orbed Christ and we would pledge oternal al- legiance to him.
