DELIGHTFUL RECEPTION

On Saturday evening, delightful
reception was given by the members
of St. James Church at the residence
of DR., and Mrs. c. t. Nolan. The
affair was in honor of Bishop Mi
kell, and was in the nature of well
come by and in introduction to the
congregation, as this was the Bishops
first visit to the parish since his con-
secration. The Nolan's lovely home
was elaborately and artistically dec
grated in spring flowers. Branches
of the starry dogwood, vases and
jardineres of many hued azaleas and
bowls of the pale blue wild pansles
were lavishly used throughout the
lower floor. In the living room were
stands of stately Easter lilies, and
tall baskets of white spirea, their
handles tied with pink tulle,
The dining room was all in rose,
the center piece for the table being a
large rustic basket of pink azaleas,
and other baskets of the same flow
ers adorned mantels and side-board.
Here refreshments were served by
the Daughters of the King.
A stringed orchestra played sweet
ly throughout the evening.
DR. and Mrs. C. T. Nolan and the
Rev. and Mrs. R. r. Claiborne stood
with the Bishop, and introduced him
to the throngs who called to welcome
him.
Those who were so unfortunate
as to be detained at home by the very
inclement weather certainly missed
a most enjoyable evening, and every
one who met Bishop Mikell were
greatly charmed with him.

appreciation of their long and faith
full service they were. made life mem

touchingly beautiful talk, and pres

bership to the two ladies. 1t had all
been kept secret, and came as love-
ly surprise to Mrs. Powers and Mrs
Gilbert 1t was a sweet meeting, and
no $4,000 for the work was ever
more cheerfully given than this, for
was a great pleasure to all to honor

ST. JAMES CHURCH NEWS.


The reception of the Congregation
for the Bishop which took place at
DR.. Nolan's residence was very beau
tiful, and was very well attended
considering the bad weather. We
have all expressed the desire that our
Bishop give the people chance to
meet him socially and to know him
better. And here was our oppor-
tunity. He is not only brilliant
preacher, but most attractive per-
sonally. And his interest in the
small parish is as great as in the
large one.
Bishop MikelPs sermon was force
full and impressive. And his charge
to the confirmation class was an in
spring appeal to go forth to the bat
tie in Christ's Name. One very in
cisive expression he used which could
scarcely fail to touch to action, and
which has been commented on by
others since hearing it. In contrast
ing those who have enlisted under
the banner of the glorious Christ
with those who are under that of His
antagonist or who are neutral, he
said: "They are consumers and
not producers; they are consumers
of Righteousness only who are not ac-
lively participating in the building up
of christian character" Thus they
leave to others to conserve and to
build up that which makes life worth
living.
There were ten in the class pres
ented for the Laying-on-of Hands,
five adults and five younger folks.
Several were prevented from coming
on account of the weather
Next Sunday services will be at
II a. M and p. m. Last Sunday
the night service was called off be-
cause of the weather. Hereafter it
will be held no matter what the wea-
ther.
o'clock.
The school meets promptly at $50.
The Friday Prayer service will be
at o'clock, with special prayers for
our country and her soldiers and
sailors.
Each day during Lent Except Eas-
ter Eve) prayers in the church were
offered for our soldiers and all work
ing in the cause. Let us not forget
now that Lent has passed, but con-
tinually pray for Gods guidance and
protection for them and for our coun-
try.

TRAIN BABY'S EARS.

If there is one bit of neglect more
than another that mother should be
ashamed of it surely is that of letting
a boy grow up with his ears sticking
wide out from his head. For this Of
tense there is less excuse than most
{ hers.
: A grown man is surely going to be
sensitive about this favorite feature of
the caricaturists, and, unlike a woman,
he has no chance of hiding the defect
with hair.
TO avoid this only takes the effort
Of seeing that the baby sleeps with the
ear straight he is lying on and that
his caps and hats are put on correctly.
The Tam O'shanter caps the little
boys wear seem to be the worst often
ders in the way of pushing the ears
out Of place. There is no crown to
hold the cap where it should be, and
after pushing it up and down for a
time It usually settles on the poor little
chaps ears.

1t is being removed to permit of the
widening of the plaza and to make
room for the enlargement of the
school which has ever been a part of
the church.
The land on which the church was
built was granted to the Franciscan
Fathers in 1912 by the municipality,
and no time was lost in building the
church. The massive walls were built
of stone brought from a small island
off Fajardo, and the beautiful struc-
ture, with it's single tower, was rapid
ly reared. A hundred years later the
chapels were built and used for school
work.
Schools to Be Enlarged.
In the early days the church was the
social as we'll as the spiritual center
of it's parish With few forms of pub
lie entertainment, it was at church
services the people met and talked
over the happenings of the day. Be-
cause they came early and remained
after services for this purpose, plaza
was built where they could congre-
gate. It is distinctive of Porto Rico
that almost every church has it's
plaza.
The removal of the church will give
more room for the schools. Father
Antonio de Castillo, the rector, ex-
poets to have 500 pupils, to be taught
by sisters from the United States and
Porto Rican girls who have acquired
licenses.
The church was the second oldest
on the island, the Church of San Jose

Rev. Father Hengston, Veteran of
Trenches, Says War Is Making
Men Christians.

That the war is immensely strength.
ening Christianity among men and is
not in any way initiating against re-
ligion was the statement Of Maj. Wi
liam Hales Kingston, Jesuit chap
lain, recently returned from two years
with the troops at the front, who has
arrived in Boston for fortnight's duty
with the British recruiting mission.
"Men are coming to the faith rather
than away" declared the military
priest. "There are many, many con-
verts right in the trenches for the
priest is there truly the father con-
fessor.
"The close proximity of death rem
ders the sacraments very dear to the
men, and the chaplains have the con-
fidence and love Of the soldiers. They
come to us with all their troubles,
large and small. They tell us of the lit
tie human things connected with their
lives. They show us pictures of their
sweethearts and mothers.
1--WE have their confidence and re-
spect, and there is none Of the re-
straint they feel with their other Off
GERS, for we are in a sense the go-be-
tweens, operating from men to officer
and from officer to men,"
Talking on the duties of tho cha n
lain in war time, Father Kingston de-
clared that often when man has been
drinking too heavily the officers will
ask the chaplain to see the soldier.
This is done, and the pledge is possibly
given and the man is saved punishment
and possible disgrace. Letters are writ
ten by the priests for the wounded
men and no affair is so small that the
intensely human chaplains cannot aid
their men.
