HOLY NAME RALLY
DRAWS MANY MEN
Demonstration in Honor OF Feast
Held in East Orange
Church.

Holy Name men from the different
Catholic churches of the Oranges at
tended a demonstration last night in
our Lady Help of Christians Church,
East orange. The sermon WAS de-
liyered by Rev. Father Nicholas. of the
Passionlsts' order, and solemn vespers
were sung by Rev. Mathew j. Farley,
assisted by Rev. Fathers Farrell and
Corr.
Father Nicholas first dwelt on the
strength of the Catholic Church, its
rapid gains, despite trials and tribula-
tons. He said bigotry is still alive,
raising its 'know-nothing" head when
an oppor nifty is presented. Despite
all, however, he continued. the church
is spreading and challenges the atten-
ton of the world.
Allegiance to God can be concen-
trated in one obligation, guard your
tongue everything else being all
right" continued Father Nicholas, for
II we honestly try to master that God
will be so pleased. He will give us
grace to do all the rest. If every man
would be what the members of the
confraternity of the Holy Name ought
to be, what a wonderful change would
come over the world and what an i'm
provement it would be. The Holy Name
Society is second to zone In the Catho-
lie Church. If men kept up their re-
ligious beliefs the whole world would
be good. A clean mind, d clean tongue
and a clean heart are the things that
count and the only things hat do"

PUSH CAMPAIGN
IN AID OF WOMEN
Societies Combine to Secure
Shorter Work Hours for
Those Employed.

The Consumers League of New Jer-
sey, in combination with the Social
Service Commission of the E~piseopalian
Churches of the Diocese of Newark, is
carrying on a vigorous campaign for
the enactment of a law by the New
Jersey Legislature limiting the hours
of work by women to sixty hours a
week.
That there is nothing radical in this
measure Is pointed out by the officers
of the Consumers League, who cite a
number of States which have limited
the number of working hours by women
employees to eight and nine hours a
day. Miss Alice Jaynes, of East Or
ange, executive secretary of the league,
says that although a #ifty-fiye hour
law has been on the statute books since
1892, this law for some "unaccountable
reason has never been enforced.
This law she says. has never been
repealed. 1t has disappeared and can
not be found any where OF the New
why 1t was dropped, and 1t Is certain
thai it has not been repealed
The bill has been Endorsed by the
Congress of Mothers, Federation OF
Women's Clubs, Girls Friendly So
ciety and others. The presentation OF
the bill was decided on at the last
meeting of the Orange Womans Club,
and is entitled An act to regulate and
limit hours of employment of women
in. any mandatory, or mercantile es-
Establishment. in any bakery, laundry
or restaurant in order to safeguard
the health of any such employees; 10
provide for its enforcement and a pen
atty for its violation &
Miss Jaynes further pointed out that
in almost all European countries they
have such legislation. and that In re-
cent court decisions in Massachusetts
and Ohio the laws regulating and
limiting the working hours of women
have been sustained.
The officers of the league are as
follows. President. Mrs. g W. b
Gushing, East Orange; first yice-presi-
dent. Miss cornelia +. Bradford, Jer-
sey city. second viee-president, Mrs.
charles Thompson. East Orange; third.
