 Referring to the death of Ambassador Whitelaw Reid, Mir Asquith added:
 T would ask leave of the House ts give brief expression to the sincere grlef felt by the whole British nation at the death of the ambassa dor from the Unt- ted States. The American ambassador to this country has a position of his own which Is independent of his status and functions as the diplomatic representa- tive of an external power. We regai1 him as a lSinsman. He is also an hon ored and a welcome guest, sprung from our own race, speaking our language. sharing with us by birth and inheritance not a few of our most cherished tradi- tions and participating when he comes here by what I may describe as his own rights in our domestic interests and cele. brations.

COMPLETE MISSION
AND RENEW VOWS
Throng Receives Papal Blessing
in East Orange Church.
Second Week Opens.

The first week of the mission under
the direction of the Jesuit Fathers. in
the Church of Our Lady Help 2f Chris
tians. East Orange. closed yesterday
afternoon with appropriate ceremonies
The edihce was crowded far beyond ITS
capacity by those who had completed
the mission by a public renewal OF their
baptismal VOWS. They received the
papel blessing, which the Jesults are
authorized to impart to those VINO
complete the making of a mission.
Father Brown, who is in charge or
this mission. conducted the services a
bestowed the papal indulgence. At e
close of the services, Father Calashnp'
rector of the parish. expressed MS <ap-
probation of the work done during Tie
past week by his Pensioners in dttehi-
ing their week of the mission.
In the evening Father Brown opened
the second week of the mission. me
c-ommodious edifce was too small. n
the attendance was greater than that
of the previous opening. The alsles
were thronged, the sanctuary filed
and the main corridor crowded. After
a short instruction and the mission
rosary by Father Brown, a mission
sermon was preached by Father VIII
Jams on THE Value of Your Soul.
A notable feature of the mission Is
the series of instructions given each
evening in the parish rectory at 1:30
for n~on-Catholics. In announcing 1t
again last evening Father Williams
said: s'This course is intended not !
for those who desire to become
catholics, but also for any nom
Catholics who seriously desire to ascer-
tain precisely what are the doctrines
of the Roman Catholic Church ON mat
tiers of faith" This special class is in
creasing. and numbers many promi-
nent residents in that locality. No
obligation towards conversion is en-
tailed by those attending.
Another special feature of the mis-
sion will be THE blessing of h
babies" on Thursday afternoon next at
$3.50 o'clock. Admission to adults will
he special, owing to lack of space.
Each adults card of admission must
be a baby in arms or by the hand. In
announcing 1t the Jesuit Fathers made
it plain hat on that occasion they
would surrender the edifce to the
babies, their cooings and all their other
little characteristics, pleasant n un-
pleasant.
The order of exercises during the
present week of the mission will be the
same as that of the preceding week.
This morning the 5 o'clock mission
mass was attended by more than 1000
1t was celebrated by Father
who also preached the SER
mon.
