TWO WEEKEND MOTOR ACCIDENTS

The week end rush of motor traffic in the vicinity of this city, was att tended by two accidents, from the first of which two Norwich men had an unusually remarkable escape when when their car ran into a telegraph pole: while in the second a New Lon don notorcyclist had his leg frac- tured and was taken to the Backus hospital in the ambulance.
 At Norwich Town Saturday night about ten thirty Harry MessIer of Division street was driving c. E. Wright's delivery automobile in from a trop to Bean Hiu and had reached a point opposite c. A.

VACATION CHURCH-Go GOING
 NOT TO BE OMITTED.
Rev. j. H. Rroderick Admonishes Con- gregation as to Year Round ObIga- tion-A Word of Caution to the Young People.

Yesterday, the feast of the Visita- ton of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the epistIe read in the Catholic churches was I Peter, V. 6-11, and the gospel was Luke xv. 1-1O, the latter the para ble of the lost sheep.
 At the 7.30 mass in St. Patrick S church Rev. J. H. Broderick preached from the gospel, explaining why the church rejoices over the repentance of a sinner, quoting the text, So, I say unto you, thee shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance."
 Preceding his brief sermon. Father Broderick referred to the advent of the vacation season, reminding the con- gregation that during the recreation period no one is excused from attend ing mass on Sundays and holy days, any more than at any other time in the year For those of his own parish, he said, the 7.30 mass was always ended by 8.30, giving ample opportunity for those who needed 8, day at the shore to reach the boat or cars. During last summer he had been greatly pleased, he stated, to notice how many came punctually to mass before seeking a days recreation.
 Father Broderick advised all who might be intending to leave town for the summer to make sure to choose some place not too far away to per- init regular attendance at church.
 He advised the young people of the parish, especially the young women, to have a care as to the aCquaintances they might make during summer out ings, speaking of the dangers in this regard which attend the vacation sea- son.
 Yesterday was the quarterly com munion Sunday of the Young Ladies SodaHty, the Sodality of the Inmacu- late Conception and the Holy Name society. So many hundreds received the Holy Eucharist that Father Brod- erick required the assistance of Rev. Peter J. Cuny in giving communion.

Clanton Fair Visitors
 Witness AerOplane Flight

Clanton, November 2--(Special) )-The fourth day of the Chiffon County fair was, like the three preceding days, a success and differed only in one or two particulars.
 Prof. Charles Green made his first aero plane flight in the presence of a large crowd. The flight was enjoyed. as it was the first time many of the people had seen the air navigated.
 On tomorrow, Friday and Saturday, Professor Green will fly again.
 The live stock judges are about through judging the cattle and swine exhibits, but will not make their decisions known un- til the last two days of the fair
 w. T. Bean has served notice that no stock can. according to rules, be removed from the grounds until late Saturday afternoon.
 The receipts at the gates are much larger than ever before for the same period on either of the eight previous years.
