Seiferman sub- deacon. After vespers Rev. James Illusion delivered an eloquent and i'm pressive sermon taking for his sub ject: The Stability of the Christian Reli gion.''
 The speaker traced religion from it's very beginning telling how it was in dispensa.ble to man for his social and individual welfare and that it was a fundamental law that constituted mans happiness. He scored unbe1iev- CTS as desiring to annihilate every vestiEe of Christianity and to eradi- cate from mans heart the very ide s~- that constitute mans soul. Tn cGE- c1usion the preacher exhorted the members to reverence the name of our display among fellow men the spirit of Christ-1ike charity and Christian faith which they have inherited
 The services closed with a solemn benediction celebrated by Rev. James Illusion assisted by Rev. Joseph H. Seifer-rraa,n as deacon and Rev. ThoIn- as P. Gloster as sub-deacon.
 Over 15200 mernbers attended the services at St Augustine's church. Rev. Walter Moran, Dominican father of New York preached the ser mon, the topics of which were whence We Came and ssWhither We Are Going The sermon was very instructive. Rev. James B. Nfhf1I P.s R.. acted as ce1aprant of solemn vespers and benediction,- Rev. Thomas P Moore. deacon; and Rev. Arthur c. Cavanaugh Of St. Thomas Seminary, Hartford, sub-deacon.
 At both services pledges were re- newed to propagate the respect for the Holy Name.

 Attila, the famous leader of the Huns whom Genevieve is credited with foiling, and who is now nkened to the Kaiser by the French, reigned in the fifth century. His wooden palace in Pannonnia was the center Of government not only for the na- ton of the Huns, but for all the peo- ples established along the banks of the Danube. With his brother he ruled over a great part of northern Asia and Europe and twice compelled Theodosius IT., Emperor of the East. to purchase an fnglorious peace. Hav- ing murdered his brother, AttiIa be- came supreme dictator, and, at the head of a vast host of his warIike people, set out to make himself mas ter Sof Europe. His ravag1ng army swept over northeastern Gaul. laid siege to Orleans, and threatened Paris. The Franks, Burgundians. Saxons and vistgoths combined to de- fend their lands against the scourge. and fought beside the Roman legions at the decisive battle of Chalons. when Attila was driven to the other side of the Rhine. He then led his hosts to Italy, destroying many cities and laying waste to the country de- claring 1t to be his wish that grass should never grow where the hoofs of his horses had trod Among the Italian cities which withered before his wrath was AquiIeia, whose Niu- shabitants made their escape to the lagoons along the Adriatic, where they founded the city of Venice.
