 For the offertory Miss Moore sang in artistic style "Eeea Deux Salvador Meus." :" Her notes were sweet and sympathetic and her vocalization. was uncommonly good
 The Rev. Father o'Reilly was the cele- brant at. the altar and from the gospel of the day delivered fitting and eloquent sermon. The boys of the sanctuary choir sang the response in the mass. After the mass MT. Sischer congratu. lated Philip Memoli, the musical director, on the beauty of his mass. He then called at Father o'Reilly's residence to tell the rector how much he had enjoyed the ser vices. He said the music was charming surprise to him. In all of his travels he had not heard In ahcity of Birmingham's s size. such grand music. He marveled at it and congratulated Father O'Reilly over and over again-on having so large choir and of having for his choir mas ter a man who could write a mass so churchly and with such musicianly fin- ish as that to which he had just listened. He said he was deeply impressed with the churchliness of the work, for even in It's most complex parts and most bril- liant finales it never lost, he thought, its devotional spirit.
 Such comment from a Catholic musi- clan of Mir. Fischers reputation was highly gratifying. of course. to Father O'Reilly who has long been proud of the composer and his choir.
 MT. Fischer returned to New York yes | terday afternoon.

hore of sweet rest and peace during the eternal years.
 When Earthly Hope Dies.
 My brother, in the life that spans the allotted term of years. there comes the naturalization Of all that we have this morning surveyed. It Is written in the Book ofGodi In letters of burning light it is interwoven in the record Of the ex- perience Of man, that there comes time when earthly hope dies: when, earthly power to accomplish decays; and when memory to recall with delight and joy the recollections of all earthly accomplish ment loses It's vigor and power. And then to the man who has staked his all upon these there is nothing more of enjoyment, peace or rest. A child without the child's hope or happiness-a physical wreck, mental blank and a spiritual nonentity- he has outlived his days of usefulness here; has laid up no treasure for his com fort hereafter and his only possible con. dition is that most pitiful of. all spec tacles beneath the sun--a helpless, hope less and, frequently homeless being both here and hereafterl4 s'
 Did I say most ptiful? That 1 retract. There is one person yet more pitiful than he. This person Is he who Is not only be- reft of hope himself, but who also, in the exercise of the gifts with which God has endowed him, has so influenced the life and action of his fellowman. in lead- ing him away from God and truth and right as to make him in the fuliness Of years-time behind him and eternity be- fore him-disappointed and dissatisfied with the achievements of the one, ana without heart or hope for the enjoyments of the otheri'Go deliver us from the pitt fulness of dismal disappointment in time and despairing dread of eternity! God especially forbid that any other precious soul should ever enter the night of such pitifulness through any act or influence of ours!
 "Comforting is 1t for us to note In con clusion that of neither one Of these types or conditions was the Psaimist David. Not |. only by virtue of the life he lived did he find profit and peace in precious mem- orles of labor achieved, but he was able also to rejoice in the hope of blessed immortality after earth with Its hopes and ideals, its accomplishments and mem | ories had passed away. And his eager de- | sire and constant endeavor were that l similar joys might be the pride ana pos | session of his fellowman.
 "God grant that this was the life lf and portion of His servant David, so l, may it be our life and portion today! And l. in the fullness of the years to come, may l our desire, as was his. be compassed in l the words, Now. also. when I am old l and greyheaded O God, forsake me not: 1 until l have showed Thy strength unto l this generation, and Thy power to every l one that Is to come"
 | For if this be our portion and desire, i then in Gods recorded answer to this prayer of David have we assurance that
 our hope may be exultant as It scans the
