Arthur F. Purkiss featured the Sunday evening service at the Central Baptist church. The New London or- chestra rendered several numbers during the service with exceptional ability on the part of the dpzen musicians com- prising the orchestra. The topic chosen by Rev. Mr. Purkiss for his first sermon of the fireside series was God and Marriage. When a man can put the gospel at the heart of every- thing he does—that is religion, said Rev. cast | Mr. Purkiss. The happinesc and joy of the home depends entirely on the reiation- - | ship of the husband and wife. The young man can't afford to have a girl who can’t and won't work. It is fine to have a home, but if you don't get the right husband or wife it ien't fine at all. It is no disgrace not to get mar- Sihgle blessedness is better than double purgator The young woman who wants to get married wants to put herself in proper condition to be married.

Mr. Purkiss' morning sermon. I have been trying to think myself back into the early days of our country and follow our forefathers as they made their way by slow, laborious progress from place to place, he said. The old roads were hard to travel. Men had to travel them, but it was precarious business, this job of liv- ing. It was a road to fear. Wild animals roamed the forests. 1t was a road of superstition. ~ Evil spirits traveled abroad. Witches cast spells on people and crops. Y A road has been built for the sons and daughters of men, for them to travel. Happy pilgrims travel its pathway re- joleing. No wild beast nor serpent haunts the traveler on it. No sorrow, no sighing. no tears nor fears. It is the way of God and the way to God. God is our father and He cares for us through all the changing scenes and conditions of life. But this pathway was built at tremen- dous sacrifice. Who bullt it? Abraham built it; Isalah built it; Jeremiah built it; Christ built it. Our task and our joy is to make known Lo the sons and daugh- ters of men the way of life. We come this Sabbath day, a joyful witness to the living Son of God, rejoicing in the sacri- ficlal love of a dying and risen Redeem- er to follow in his pathway. The path is not mine and no one can make it mine, unless I walk on it. Blessed Christ of God 1 give myself up to travel on that Royal Highway The second in the series of fireside ser- mons will be delivered next Sunday even- ing when the tcglc will be The Virile Husband.

REENEVIL The three days' retreat for the women of St Mary's parish opened Sunday sve- ning at 7.30, with an attendance of over 00. The retreat preacher, Rov. Fr. Ha- verstraw, 8. I, of New York city, spoke at the retreat and at the high mass at 10.30 preached the retreat sermon on the gospel for the day as related in the par. able of the wedding feast. The even. ing’s services opened with the rosary and_litany by the rector. Rev. William A Keefe, following which the retreat sermon on the Creation of Man was given by Rev. Fr. Haverstraw, 8. J., and proved to be a masterly effort. The retreat masses for the week were announced for 5 and 7 o'clock with pub- lic services every evening at 7.30. The retreat sermon tonight (Monday) will be preached by Rev. John A. Morgan, . J. of New York. The three days' retreat for the women closes Tuesday night and the men's retreat opens on Wednesday morning.

Mr. Daniel Phiflips has presented the library his very handsome ' book, The Cemeteries of Griswoid; finely illustrat- ed, typewritten and bound in pigskin. It is a valuable acquisition and as only four copies were published, we espec- ‘ally appreciate this valuable gift. In his annual report to the citizens nf Norwich President William A. Ai- kén says, in part: This year marks seventy years as the age of the Otis Library founded by its generous projector, Joseph Otis, Esq. For the last twenty-thres years of that period ‘you have contributed to its sup- port as a free public library The the- ofy upen which your contribution was originally asked by the trustees was that the town should contribute the es- timated current expenses z., salaries, lighting, heating, water, etc., while out- lays for construction, repairs, furniture and all books, and their rebinding, to- gether with mewspapers and periodicals, should be charged against the invest- ed funds of the corporation. Durin gthe first years of joint financ- ing ‘the fown's contribution substantial- ly covered the current expenses—one year with a little overplus which was returned to the town treasury by the trustees of the library, according to the terms of their agreement. The increasing activities of the 1i- brary in later years, howerer, made it necessary for the trustees to draw, an increasing extent, their invested funds, which from time to time were increased in amount by private bequests With your assistance the coming vear to tho same extent as heretofore, the trusters may hope to keep up to as high a standard of usefulness and attrac- tiveness to the schools and the general reading public as ever.

GOSPEL A SPECIAL CALL OF GOD TO CATHOLIC MEN, SAYS PRIES1 Many are called, but few are chos- en.’ There was a strange solemnity about the early mass at 7.30 in St. Pat- rick’s church, Sunday morning. The words of the rector, Rev. John H. Broderick, seemed almost prophetic, as he briefly commented on this phrase from the gos- pel for the Sunday, the nineteenth after Pentecost, Mat. xxii, 1-4, the parable of the marriage feast. By a peculiar coincidence, this gospel ‘was read on the very Sunday when there ‘were taken up by the assistant priests the cards which the men of the congrega- tion had signed, promising to take advan- tage of the triduum, or three days' re- treat preceding Sunday, October 10, Ho Name Sunday, tb go to confession and Holy communion, and to participate, if physjcably able, in the public demonstrs tion against the profane use of the Holy Name of Jesus and azainst profanity and impure speech in general. large num- ber of cards was thus collected, so that sizeable congregations of men are to assemble Wednesday, Thursday and Fri- day evenings to hear the sormons preach- | ed by a Dominican Father from New York, who Wwill come specially for this purpose. The plain, direct address of the past- tor dealth with the gnificant words of the gospel, foretelling the doom of those ‘who indifferent. stiff-neck- ed, or worldly, remain deaf to the call of the Master Who has prepared the wed- ding feast, offerinz the excuse of the negligent of whom the gospel tells: “But they gave no heed. and went, one to his farm and another to his merchan- dise” The call sounded is that of au- thority—to men who are Catholics, not alone in name but in fact—giving public testimond to the strength of the reason for the faith which is in them. There seems special anpositeness in ob- serving Holy Name Sunday as the year draws to an end, with the possibilities of ‘winter hardships, disasters, epidemics and the like In the months to come. Hun- dreds of well-disposed men of the parish are gratefully taking advantage of the opportunity of maki their peace ith God privatelv, through the sacraments of pennace and the Bucharist. preparatory to publicly standing forth for the ideals| of a higher Christian life, seriousness of purpose and cleanness of speech. To such as disregard the call there must be a lesson ‘in the warning of the gospel—it may not sound for them a<zain!
