REV. R. E. sHoRTELL
To Celebrate Silver Jubilee at Ridge
 field on June 19.

Norwich Catholics will endorse the following pleasant reference to a for mer. assistant pastor of St. Patrick s parish, which appeared in Tuesday s Danbury News:
 The Catholics of Ridgefield will eel ebrate the twenty-ff anniversary of the ordination of the Rev. Father Richard D. Shortell on Monday, June 19. It is customary to celebrate with a becoming function the silver jubilee of the priests of the Catholic church. The whole parish unites with the clergyman in rejoicing and thanks giving.
 Father Shortell is held in high es- teem by the people of Ridgefield. Dur ing the nineteen years of his pastorate he has accomplished much in the spir- itual and material order. About a year after his appointment to Ridge field he constructed a fine Gothic brick church. Shortly afterwards a rectory was built. When the debt on both buildings was liquidated, Father Short ell built for the young men of the parish a lyceum, affording reading spacious hall. The lyceum has been a favorite rendezvous for the young men of Ridgefeld, especially during the winter months
 Father Shortell has been a member of the board of educat ation for several years, and has contributed considera- ble time and energy to the advance lnent and perfection of the school sys- tenn of Ridgefeld. Father Shortell' S sermons and lectures attract large au- diences. A fine literary taste marks all his discourses and gives evidence of C wide range of reading and profound study. It is we'll known that during Bishop Tierney's administration, Fla ther Shortell was offered the pastorate of a larger parish, but declined the appointment. He was associated with the people of Danbury twenty years ago as an assistant at St. Peters church. The Catholics of Danbury, among whom Father Shortell was very popular, will unite with the members of his parish in felicitating him on the occasion of his silver jubilee.
