CONNECTICUT'S SUFFRAGAN BISHOP
Episcopal Churches Elect Rev. Chauncy LnsIey of Tor rington-Choice Made Thirteenth Ballot-Social
 Service Recommendations-Loc Men on Committees.

lshed in church, at the place in di- vine service designated by the rubric, on at least two Sundays immediately preceding the proposed solemniza tion of said marriage, the banns of the parties intending matrimony and such certificate shall not be received ex cept from clergyman regularly off ciating in the church in which at least one of the parties is an habitual at tendant."
 Social Service Recommendations.
 In a report of the committee on so- cial service, among other recommenda- tions il advised as follows
 It should be the duty of every Christian to do what he can to see that the severest punishment is given of lenders against the fundamental law protecting the rights of girls and wo- men who are without the safeguards of the home In this connection we beg to emphasize the great need in every city of an efficient police matron. as well as woman probation officer. We believe that women and particu- larly young girls and children, should never be brought into court unless accompanied by some woman whose duty it shall be to protect these wo- men and children from the curious and oftentime vulgar frequenters of these court proceedings.
 We believe also that a law should be enacted prohibiting the sale or use Of liquor in public dance halls and providing that no license shall be is sued for the sale of liquor in public dance halls or in any saloons opening into such a dance hall"
 In conclusion the report says.
 We, again strenuously urge church. es to unite themselves into social service committees in the various par ishes of this state; that such commit tees in turn affiliate themselves with similar committees of other churches, Protestant or Catholic. in the same community, to study not only the gen. eraI social needs of the state, burt the specific social needs of each commun- icy; and that this concerted interde- nominational influence be brought to bear upon public sentiment. and in particular upon the ones chosen in each community to represent it in the law making body of the state.'
 On Committees.
 In the committee appointments by Bishop Brewster, Judge Gardiner Greene of this city was placed upon the committee on constitutions and canens; Rev. w. E. Hooker of Po- quetanuck upon committee on nomi- nations to fill vacancies; Rev. Charles J. Mason of Stonington upon commit tee on music.
 Judge Gardiner Greene and H. H. Gallup are delegates from Christ church and A. T. Sullivan from Trim ity church.

 Many are in attendance at the ser vices of the mission in the Sacred Heart church this week. The services Wednesday were of special interest. In the evening Rev. P. J. Casey, who IS giving the mission, began with an in- struction in which he said:
 man is not free from care or trouble when he has sin on his soul Don't buy foolish books Get your priest to set you on the right track in many matters where you might make mistakes. Valuable books are The Imitation Of Christ. The Faith of Our Fathers. by Cardinal Gibbons, Catholic Belief and Hidden Service, by Mrs. Alexander We should be as careful about our reading as about our eating. What you read will afterwards shape your life.
 There is no use in coming te con- fession unless you mean cOntTition- sorry enough to quit as the little boy said If you are not sorry enough to quit, you are lying, you are deceiv- ing. Don't try to hide your sin. You then go cut with the sin of sacrilege, Don't smother over sin.
 Each one of us is a sinner and we sympathize with each other, Jesus Christ is back of the one who is hear ing the confession. You have offended God by shining. Woe to the priest who does not pour in balm and oil. If he be stern, God will be stern with him. Be insistent in your acts of con- tritien
 For the sermon which followed Rev. Father Casey took for his text It is appointed unto every man once to die.
