sheIterins Arns Service Conducted by
 Rev. c. A. Northrop and Singers from First Church = Endeavorers
 Plan All Day Hike.

Rev. c. A. Northrop and the choir of the First Congregational church were in charge of the Sheltering Arms service Sunday afternoon. The text chosen for the address was Wouldcst tb1ou be made whole? and the thought emphasized that there must be hearty desire and consent in order to obtain spiritual gifts at the hand of God. We are too easily content to live upon a lower lever, the speaker said. The in- disposition to accept the best that comes to us is the cause of most of our troubles.
 If you haven't given your mind and soul and heart to Christ, you are in need of the Great Physician. He comes to those in need and questions each. We should be on such intimate terms win Him that we shall answer gladly and say: Yes, Lord, help me, to His offer, Woulde5t thou be made whole Just because many times the answer is not Yes, the kingdom of God is coming $ so slowly. We are all sinsick and need to be made whole by the touch of Christ Then shall we measure up to the stature of a Christian, with clear and loving views of God, and sound in spiritual health.
 3. Among the hymns sung were The Son of God Goes Forth to War, He Lifted Me, and Take My Life and Let It Be Consecrated. There was pleas ing rendering of the anthem Come Sabbath. Free from Sorrow. H. L. Yer rington was at the piano. Other Enen.-
 bers of the quartette were Miss Ruth l.. Potter, Miss Elizabeth Luther and F. P. Sterry.

 New Haven, May 2S.-For the first time in several years, New Haven was the scene of the exemplification of the fourth degree of the Knights of Columbus. The exercises took place today and from early morning up to noon, the members of this branch of the order, from all over the state, made New Haven their objective point. It was one of the largest gath erings of knights that the Elm City has welcomed in years. They came by automobile and by train and sev- eral hours before the time set for the work to begin the Taft hotel, which was the headquarters, was crowded with knights who came to be advanced to the fourth degree and those who came to witness the exenplif1cation.
 The work was under the direction of John M. Lee of Norwich, master of the Connecticut district, assisted by an able degree corps, several of whom came from the eastern section of the state.
 The Morning Exercises.
 All the members of the order and candidates that had arrived in New Haven at that time, assembled at the Knights of Columbus club house on Church street at 10 a. m., and from there proceeded in a body to St. Mary's church on Hillhouse avenue, where
 
 special section being reserved for them, and listened to a sermon ap- propriate to the occasion. Following the service 9 lunch was served to the visiting knights at the K. of c. club house.
 Class of 143 Candidates.
 The exemplifcation of the degree was given at 3 o'clock in Music hall, upon a class of 143 candidates. With one exception this was the largest class in the history of this branch of the order in Connecticut. The work was eXemplifed by a degree team com posed of the following members: Mas Charles o. Murphy, Norwich; Fourth Degree corps, H., John F. -Hennon, of Jewett City; N, Frank P. HcNamara, Norwich; R., John F.. Cayanaugh ThomBsonville; D.. of r., Rev. Thomas P. Mulcahy, Bridgeport; chaplain D. Of c, Thomas F. McMahon, South l Norwalk; E1., J. J. Kennedy, New Ha- ven.
 Parade in the Evening. Following the degree work, shortly after o'clock. the knights formed in front of Music hall. The column | was made up in two divisions. In the l first division, which was led by the l Second Regiment band, were the IA 1 candidates and in the second division whicheWas proceeded by the New Ha- ven band were the members of Johr Barry assembly and the visiting knights. The line moved through the principal streets and the knights, at. :, tired in formal dress, and wearing baldrics and carrying swords, made an excellent appearance. Thousands 1 of, spectators thronged the streets 1 along the line of march and the ap. plause that greeted the marchers al 1 frequent intervals was indicative o the impression created by the fint | showing of the marching knights. Banquet at Taft Hotel.
 The exercises of the day concluded with a banquet at the Taft hotel which was held in the ball room, GOV. CTS being laid for 400. Following tn, banquet there was a program of ad l dresses by prominent men, including i Hon. Frederick W. Mansfield of Bos ton, former state treasurer of Massa

Bryon Harold, of Newark, N j were
quietly united in the bonds of holy
matrimony. The officiating clergyman
was the Rev. John S. Alfriend, of Zion

which was performed under an arch of
redbud roses and magnolias was of
great simplicity and beauty. After
pretty but informal reception at Rion
Hall, the bridal party were entertained
at wedding breakfast by Mrs. St.
George T. Brooke, the brides mother,
and left Immediately for a motor trip
through New Jersey, Mr.. and Mrs.
Harold will make their home for the
present in Newark, N j., where Mr..
Harold has important business interests.
The bride, representing as she does
some of our largest and most notable
county families, will be much missed
from the social circle which she
where her unusual grace and
charm have won for her a host of
friends and admirers. Their good
wishes follow her to her new home.

people in it, and is claimed by many to
surpass the Birth of Nation" The
Editor Of the Spirit of jefferson saw it
in Washington where he had to stand
in line for an hour before he could gain
admission to the theatre, and where it

wise every man woman and child within
reach to see it, as the admission of 25c.
puts it within reach of all.
