On Decerhber fifth he had a sudden and violent convulsive attack caused by organie trouble to which he had been subject for several years, from which he did not rally. All that medical skilt ane trained nursing could do did not avail ana after two weeks' illness he passed quietly to_sleep. Mr. Spencer was a warm-hearted, gen- erous Christian gentleman. Consideration for others was one of his prominent qualities as was also with him a ready extenuation of theic faults. Orisinally he had been a member of the Central Baptist, chureh of Norwich, but the Methodist element heinz strong at the south, he had, togéther with his wife. connected himself with that denoy eon. and at the time of his dsath was a mem- ber of the Main street Methodist chureh of Columbia.

HEAD-ON AT 0CCU: Two trolley cars on the Norwich-Willi- mantic lires met inu a head-on collision about 4:15 Saturday afternoon on the curve at Riverside a short distance north of Taftville. Both cars were heavily freighted but luckily no one suffered seri- ous injury, due largely to the fact that Motorman_Sigerson of the southbound car when he saw the other car approach- ing threw his controller into reverse and was travelling backward when the crash came. The cars were supposed to pass on the lower Occum switch but either through a misunderstanding of orders or for some other unexplained cause the southbound car overran the switch and was making good time for Nofwieh. The northbound supposing the track ahead clear was also making good time when it came upon the southbound car. Both cars iere con- siderably damaged by the impact but Inckily there were no serious injuries, a few of the passengers getting minor bruises and Motorman M3 relle hav- ing his wrist jammed. The norfhbound car was in charge of Conductor Bennett and Motorman Marcaurelle and the southbound car was in charze of Conduc- ] tor King afid Motorman Sizerson. About the same time another acident happened on the Yantic line when a ‘ear jumped tha rails and swung acrass the road, blocking traffic for an hour. PANTOP'S GRACIOUS MEMORIAL TO MRS, WILLEM C.

Otis, also a duet with Mr. Otis on the cornet and his son on_the piano, Secretary Edwin Hill gave a brief talk in line with the second reel shown, the subject of which was, The Lord ~Will {Provide. In part the speaker said, “What would we do if the kind Father had not caused the trees to grow, the coal to accumulate in the bowels of the fearth, and the various metals to be put in places where we can find them. If it were not for His kind provision, we could have no houses in which to live, !no churches in which to worship, in fact all of our comforts and necessities are from the hand of God, and we do well to thank Him often for his kindness. God had a purpose in placing all these things at our disposal, that they might serve the race; he also had a definite purpose in putting us info the world, and that purpose for us was the same as was His > in supplying the things mention- mely God's purpose for us is that hould serve those about us. Two thousand years ago when Jesus was .giv- en to this old world, God gave us His best gift, and His beloved Son has al- .| Ways been ministering to the needs of the human family, and we do well to remember that it is expected of us, that we too should minister in His name. If we give our gifts at Christmas time in the right spirit, we enjoy far more giy- | ing tham~we do receiving; while we ap- { preciate the gifts. of our friends we en- joy to a greater degree the pleasure our ®ifis Dring to those to whom we give. We should mora fully enter into the spir- it of service.

The altar and sanctuary dec- orations were of laurel, holly and ever- gregn which with the numerous lighted candles together with the old gold vest- ments worn by the guests typified the day as a feast of gladness. The church decorations were by the sisters of the parish and showed them usual gold taste in this respeet. The high mass at 5.30 vclock was offered by Rev. William H.

In the solemn high mass at 10.30' Rev. Myles P. Galvin was celebrant, Rev. Fa- ther Dinan, Who assisted over the week end, was deacon, and Rev. Daniel F. Sulli- van was sub-deacon.

The solo- ists were Mrs. Farrell, in the beautiful soprano numbers, Miss Loretta Bellefleur, dohn F. Doyle, Daniel Gleason and Frank G. Aubrey” Lang's string orchestra sup- plemented the organ, playing with the finish and fine understanding which this body of musicians always shows. The choruses were nicely adjusted to produce the best volume and the blending of voices and went with verve and swing and precision during the elimax numbers. Benediction of the blessed sacrament wps given by Father Qalvin following the mass and at this time the music was ex- ceedingly smooth and true. All these volunteer singers certainly deserve well of the parish for their faithful work week | after week in providing so impertant a feature of the offering of the divine sacri- fice as is the choir music. The innovation referred to eame at the offertory, in Adeste Fideles, the centu: - old Nativity hymn of the chureh fs to the voungest Catholic child, yet n its simple grandeur satisfying the soul of the most exacting musician. Mr. Farrcll had stationed in the gallery at the gos- pel'side of the auditory the girls of the $anler chole direeted kP Mith Tioherty and after the genior singers Tad nounged the theme in the onening & raims, | Miss Thelma Clish took un the melody in solo, joined, as the stanza advanced, by | the other girls, whose fresh, clear youn |1 voices were reinforeed by the éombined senior choruses in the inspiring ellmlx.l in which grand organ and strings in crescendo blended. Then came the great pleasure of hear- ing Adam's “Noel'/ given a wonderfully fine interpretation by Charles J. Dyer, Mr. Farrell's artistic organ aceompani- ment having the obbligato of 'cello during the first stanza and 'cello and violin dur- ing-the secord. Hearing Mr. Dyer, ene is sure of listening to the Jatest in European mothod as resards phrasing, style and finish, to clear enunciation, and to that peculiar vibrant quality of baritone in- dicative of great feserve power, ease, and a confidence that none of the beauty of his rendering of the theme is lost on those who follow- so closely the tonal pictures which he evokes.

The same preacher was heard at the high mass Sunday, having read the day's épis- tle narrating the martyrdom of St Stephen and the gospel, Luke ii. 33-40, choosing his text from = the latter, the prophecy of azed Simon to Mary, “Béhold, this Child is set for the fall and rising of many in Israel” Both sermons were as thoughtful and mnvlncinl as they were eloquent.
