beautiful sermon, one which Father Sui.
livan is so capable of giving his people and
which was given the closest attention. He
spoke OF Christ and His church as a re-
ligion. The crowded church showed the
desire of people who heard him last year
to welcome him again. Then the people
were invited to go up and ring the bell,
this closing the services of the day. Many
people came from surrounding towns and
some from distance to assist our Catho-
lie people and congregation in the work
of erecting this beautiful church. Many
thanks are due The band, also our outside
friends who tried to make every ing q
success. May God help and assis them in
all their undertakings. CONTRIBUTED.
