SERVICES.
Last Sunday and Monday New
Years Day. the usual services took |
place in the Holy Name Church and |
the usual large attendance was on |
hand at each one of the services. |
Rev. Father NJ. J. Larkin, S. NJ. |
preached at the high mass last Sun /
day and made a very favorable i'm
preston. The timely subject of the
care of children by their parents was
clearly and forcibly placed before
those present. In these days, when
such carelessness is exhibited by so
many parents with regard to the
moral welfare of their children. it
was most oppOrtune to place before
the people at the beginning of a new
year. Young Father Larkin, S. NJ,
not only gives promise of becoming
an orator, but is already a finished
speaker With a fine appearance, a 1
sympathetic voice and a good COM
mand of language, he has everything
necessary for effective public speak
ing He likes Algiers so much that
he will remain here until Friday.
