this recipe to experiment by using four

see II they are not well pleased with the

these puffs by putting orange cut into small
pieces, In place of the raisins or raspberry
jam-only about half as much Of this as of
the raisins. She does not mix the jam or
the orange with the batter. but fills her
cups half full OF this and then puts in the
orange or the jam with enough batter on
this to make the whole puff- She serves
what she calls foamy sauce with them
and uncommonly good It is. too. We don't
have the puffs once or twice a week. as my

The possibilities and op- portunities for the work are unlimited, with a sufficient number of efficient workers. Besides the rooms of the United Workers on Washington street there is fine clubhouse at the Falls and there is q real need for rooms and workers in GreeneNiIle. The demand is particularly for more workers and there is an opportunity for Volun- teers. Mir.

BRANDEGEE HAS NO
 OBJECTIONS TO THOMAS
Will Not Oppose His Nomination for
 Federal District Judge

According to a Washington dispatch to a Hartford paper, a report was cur rent in Washington, but not confirmed that Senator Brandegee would oppose the confirmation of Edward $. ThOm- as nomination as federal district judge. The despatch further stated that the alleged ground for the re- ported opposition is that Candidates Noone and Walter Walsh were said to be disCriminated against for racial and religious reasons"
 Senator Brandegee made the state- ment in New London Saturday that if any such report or rumor was in existence it was entirely without his authority. The senator stated that the nomination of Mir. Thomas came into the senate on Thursday of this week; that the judiciary committee would meet on Monday, when, under the rule, the nomination of MT. Thomas will be referred to a sub committee. The sub committee would report later to the entire committee and thereupon the entire committee would act upon the nomination.
 Senator Brandegee stated that he had no intention whatsoever of Oppos- ing the nomination of MT. Thomas but that on the contrary he was 8 friend of MT. Thomas and hoped to see his nomination confirmed. The senator stated that when he was speaker of the Connecticut house in the session of 1899 MT. Thomas was a member of the house from the town of Orange. Senator Brandegee further said that while he had not met MT. Thomas ire quently in recent years he had always retained an agreeable impression of him and knew of no reason why his nomination should not be promptly and favorably acted upon. The senator stated that before the president sent the nomination to the senate he had advised the president, in reply to the presidents inquiry, that he had no ob- jection to the nomination

aRE OF GOOD HEARr.'
Christ's Words Encouraging to the Sick, Discouraged, Sinful, Friendless Sermon by Rev. M. P Calvin.

AS a plea for frequent oommunions. Rev. Myles P. Calvin preached at the high mass in St. Patrick's church Sun day, choosing as his text the Saviour's tender greeting to the woman who said within herself. If I shall touch only his garment I shall be healed': Matt, TX, 1926, the gospel for the twenty third Sunday after Pentecost. Christ's encouraging words: Be of good heart" bring a message of hope to the discoura ged, tho sick the sim ful, the frisndiess. They tell of One who has said, Come unto me, all ye who are heavily burdsred and I will refresh you,"
 Hearing of the wenans faith, men are prone to say, "Oh, yes. Had I lived in GhFist's time I, too, would have gene ta Him te seek aid" But Christ is iii the world as truly today as when He taught and eens6lea and inspired His diseiRles. Pounded on the testimony ef the Scriptures, Cath elies believe that the loving, eambas- sieHate PitFiHg Saviour remains ia- eaFRate in the Holy uehaFist, as He Himself BFamisea,
 Friendship fer earthly friends ia= eFea ses by frequent association with them. Fhe preacher pointed cut that ieTe fer the Saviour must be festefed and increased by frequent reception of the Blessed Eucharist, which He has lift as a token of his undying. love fer mankind.
