vention.

PLAN RALLY DAY SERVICES
FOR W MOVEMENT
Men and Religion Campaign tc
Be Topic in Churches.

Local churchmen affiliated with the
Men and Religion Forward movement
are planning to observe rally day the
latter part of this month.
Special services will be held in
many of the churches in this city and
sermons bearing on the work of the
movement will be delivered by the
pastors. The object of observing
rally day, it is understood. is to
awaken renewed interest in the For
ward movement, which was organized
last year and which has spread
throughout the country. The rally
will also open the active fall and
winter religious campaigns among the
many UNCONVENTIONAL churches asso-
ciated with the movement.
The Sabbath schools also will con-
duct special rally day exercises, and
the Christian Endeavor and Epworth
League topics will relate to the move
ment. The musical programs in the
churches will also be specially ar
ranged.

LIVES SAVED +.
BY SANE Fourth
Newark Among Cities That
Have Reduced Fatalities
Since 1908.

CHICAGO. Sept. 1.-The Fourth OF
July, for many "a a day for the
manning ana killing of overzealous
citizens, especially the patriotic small
boy, underwent a radical change this
year, according to statistics in the
current issue of the~Journal of the
American Medical Association.
Never before, as far as records are
o~btainable, were there so few acct
dents and deaths.
Instead of the so-called patriotic
celebration of former years, there has
been substituted picnics, parades de-
plotting historic events, flag drills and
open-air exercises by school children,
both in cities and in the country. AS
a result, only 9SS persons were in
jured, as against 1923 injured less
than ten years ago. Instead of 466
being killed through various means,
as was the cause in 1903, only forty
one died as direct cause of an Inde-
pendenee Day celebration, including
seven tetanus victims.
Another feature is the absence OF
disastrous fires this year. What is
considered more remarkable than any
other thing is the reduction in the
number of cases of tetanus.
The most marked reduction in the
number of killed and injured in the
last few years has been in New York,
Boston, Newark and Chicago.

WILL PAY TRIBUTE
TO TWO SISTERS
To Observe Fiftieth Anniversary
of Their Entry Into Re-
Iigious Life.

With elaborate and impressive re-
ligious ceremonies, 200 orphans of st.
Peters Orphanage and p~arishioners
of st. Peters Roman Catholic Church
will tomorrow observe the fiftieth an
niversary of the religious profession
of two members of the local commu-
nifty of the Sisters of Notre Dame
Sister Mary Severine, mother superior
of the local community, and Sister
Mary Adrian, who have devoted a
ing and caring for the young of st.
Peters parish. Both have been con-
nected with the orphan asylum since
1t was started forty-seven years ago.
A striking coincidence is the fact
hat both sisters entered the convent
at the same time, in Milwaukee, Wis,
in 1862. Both observed their golden
jubilee a week ago Friday, the event
being celebrated in the convent in
Livingston street, but the public cell
ebration was left until tomorrow.
Celebrate PontifcaI Mass.
The services will consist of the eel
ebration of a pontifical mass by the
Right Rev. Monsignor Alois Stecher,
pastor of the church, with Rev. Mat
thias Thimmes and Rev. Michael
Mechler his assistants, as deacon and
sub-deacon, respectively. 1t is ex-
pected that a large number of priests
from various parts of the diocese will
occupy seats within the chancel rail.
The sisters of the local community
and many others from out of town
will occupy seats in the centre aisle.
The main altar will be decorated with
palms and cut flowers and gold gar
lands and lighted with electric lights
and candles.
Preceding the mass there will be a
procession from the school hall to
the church. Acolytes will head the
march, followed by fifty orphans of
st. Peters Orphan Asylum, twenty
five girls and a like number of boys
They will be dressed in white, and the
girls will carry an arm bouquet of
golden asters and wear gold wreaths.
The costumes that were to have been
worn by the children were destroyed
by the recent fire at the orphanage,
but will be replaced in time for the
celebration.
Sisters Head Procession.
AT the church the sisters of the
local community will head the pro-
cession up the centre aisle, and pre-
ceding the jubilarians will be twenty
five girls and Nthe same number of
boys, each carrying a golden lily.
Then will come two small girls, each
carrying a cushion, on which will be
a crown of thorns interlaced with
golden leaves.
Forty-seven years ago Rev. Gott-
fried Prieth, the first pastor of st.
Peters, invited the Sisters of Notre
Dame to establish a community in
this city, which they did, with Sister
Severine as superior, and Sister
Adrian and three other sisters. Be
sides supervising the parochial school
Sister Severine during all these in
tervening years has had charge of
the orphan asylum in Livingston
street and also the one in Lyons
avenue.
Among those who will come from
distant cities to take part in the cell
ebration will be Sister Mary Wilhel-
mine, a sister of Sister Adrian, from
Baltimore.
