 Sunday, Candlemas day, the Feast of the Puritication of the Blessed Vir- l gin, also Quinquagesima, about 50 days before Easter, the blessing of the can dles took place before the high mass in St. Patrick's church, Rev. William

Father Grumbly's sermon was on the impossibility of separating mor- Miss Florence Northrop sang Abt's Ave Maria, with f1utelike clearness and beautiful phrasing, her voice filling the great auditory without effort. in a way which won her many expressions of appreciation after the service. At all the masses the circular let ter from Rt. Rev. John Joseph Milan bishop of the diocese, was read, be- ginning:
 The L.enten regulations may be sum- marized as follows:
 CD The sick and all who are in delicate health are not bound to either fast or abstain.
 CD The aged and those under twen- ty-one years of age are not bound to fast, but must abstain on abstinence days.
 (3) The abstinence days for the la
 boring class and all members of the
 household of laborers are Fridays, Ash
 Wednesday, and Wednesday and Sat
 urday of Holy week.
 (4) The abstinence days for all
 others are the Wednesdays and Fri
 days and the second and last Satur-
 days of Lent.
 (5) All who are engaged in an ex-
 hausting occupation are not restricted
 in the number of meals and may eat
 meat at any meal except on abstin-
 ence days.
 (s) Those who keep the fast are
 permitted to take only one full meal a day. In the morning, however. they
 may take a cup of tea, coffee or choc- olate with 8 piece of bread. In the evening they may take a light colla- . tion. At this collation. it is lawful to use fish. eggs, cheese, butter and milk but the quantity of solid food should
 not exceed ten ounces. Meat is allowed
 only at the principal meal This meal
 may be taken in the evening and the collation at noon.
 On Sundays there is no restriction in the use of meat, but both meat and
 fish cannot be eaten at the same meal on any day of Lent
 As a fitting preparation for the eel ebration of the festival of the Resur-
 rection of Christ. the church from very
 ancient times has set apart a period
 of forty days to be devoted in a spe-
 cial manner to penance, prayer and
 meditation. The rigorous fast of for
 mer days, owing to the conditions of
 modern life, has been modified, and the use of flesh meat formerly alIowe
 only on the Sundays is now prohibited
 only on a few days in Lent. The call
 to prayer, however. far from having ceased is more urgent than ever be- fore The church does not dispense
 from precepts that are divine: to dis regard the warning ito watch and pray is to fail willing victim to the wiles of Satan. who is abetted by : tAa EesLEG---s- Of l1--=-a, ,lassions

WORKERS INSTRUCTED FOR
 WORK FOR AUTO o-AMBULANcE Will Begin Weeks Work Today-Ann : hulance Will Be Kept at Hackus Aaer,if,I

A meeting for the instruction of the ladies who begin today on the week s money raising campaign for the auto mobile ambulance for Backus hospital was held on Saturday morning at the '. NJ. c. A, and was attended by about 70 of those who will make up the ten teams. Final instructions were given of the plan to be followed in the effort to raise s3,000, so that all are ready to start at once this morning. According to reports, some of the mort jealous workers were taking time by the fore lock on Saturday, as a number Of bus mess men mentioned that they had all ready been solicited for their contri- buttons.
 Home chapter of the Kings Daugh- ters was one of the voluntary contrib utors to the fund on Saturday.
 When the ambulance is secured 1t IS to be kept at the hospital, instead of downtown, as has been the case with the horse drawn vehicle that has serv- ed for so many years. Those interest ed in the present plan state that it is hoped in time that the ambulance can be sent out free of charge, but that for the present at least 1t. will not be so. In that respect the Backus hos pttal will be following the practice of private hospitals generally. for 1t is only in free public hospitals that the ambulance service is also free.

OBITUARY.
Mrs. Henry L. Butts. (Contributed.l


 The placing of this name among those who have passed from life touches a chord in many hearts and elfcits widespread sympathy and re- gret. Almost the whole of her life from early wonanhood has been pass ed in this community where she has stood for wonanly dignity and beauty of character which few attain. The wife of one of our most honored and loved citizens, who preceded her but a few months, they have been revered and admired by wide circle in an exceptional degree. Through years of happiness and prosperity, and through years of aff1iction and suffering, they were models of sweet serenity and pa tience which few are successful in copying
 She was 8 woman of rare sagacity and wisdom, deeply interested in and alert to the larger events of the world of large charity and clear judgrnent and of a superlative patience that made us forget that her deprivations were greater than our own.
 Her going was in keeping with her life--peaccful and calm, gliding away SD quietly that her watchers were unconscious of her going, irnpressfng them with the thought that dsath Is but a hypfen between the life that now is and that which is to be lived and that in the passage from darkness to light there is less place for dirges than for the silver trunpets
 By such lives community is en- riched and toned to higher key and a sWestsr music
