which II called the Sepsuagisima. Father
Gribben based his remarks upon the text:
Matthew TX if-sSo the iast shall be first. and
the frst issffor many be called but few chosen.
According TO the gospel and the faith,
the parable OF the householder who went
out early in the morning to hire laborers
for his vineyard IL one OF the principal
parishes OF the New Testament The owner
of the vineyard went again on the third.
the sixth the ninth and the eleventh
hours. inviting the men who were idling
away their time to work iE his vineyard,
and when night came he requited all with
the same pay. "Tbus at the night of
death" said Father Gribben, I'VE shall all
be rewarded according 10 the labor we have
done In life. Those who have worked but
short time and with great fervor will be
recempensed equally with those who have
commenced in youth hut have not worked
with the same fervor and ardor. The Jews
who bore the burden and received
the faith in the beginning and bore the
burden OF the old laws will be set aside for
the Gentiles, who were called at the elev-
enth hour. The first shall be last and the
last first
I'm accordance to Sc. Panl's epistle to the
Corinthians, he who soweth sparingly will
reap sparineiy. and he who soweth in
abundance will reap in abundance"
The speaker called attention to the ne
cessity OF tending to the divine call. We
we're all called. those who did not pay al
tet.tion to the call would waste their efforts
| like the spider who built the web to atch
the dust.
