SHOULD ATTACH THRIFT
 STAMPS TO CARDS

Because of misunderstanding on the part of some people to the effect that thrift stamps and war savings stamps are redeemable when .detacf- ed from the official thrift card or war savings certificate issued to contain these securities. the Connecticut War Savings Committee is sending out in- formation calling attention to the gov ernment ruling which states that nei- ther thrift stamps nor war savings stamps are cashable unless they are affixed to the official cards issued by the government for this purpose.
 Information which has reached the headquarters of the savings division shows that some people have attempt- ed to cash either their thrift stamps or war savings stamps when not at tached to cards. When refused pay ment they have been rather at sea as to why they should be refused. It is pointed out that if the people will be sure that these securities are affixed to the cards issued by the U.. S. gov ernrnent only. it will not only save trouble for themselves, but will als

NEW YEAR SURE TO BE LAST FOR MANY, WARNS FIR. GALVir

The solemnity of the last Sunday of the Old Year inspired a very opposite and suggestive sermon on the part of Rev. Myles P. Calvin, the preacher at the high mass in St. Patrick's church Sunday. Reasoning from the remem- bered changes and unexpected hap penings of the twelvemonth just end ing, Father Calvin reminded his au- ditors that it was but logical to sup pose that many listening to him at that moment would not be in their places when the final Sunday of 1920 shall have come around. Health, youth, vigor, may be no assurance that death will not claim many in the congregation, before another year ends.
 The fact that numbers of those call- ed have gone suddenly. should be a lesson and warning to us who remain to enter upon the New Year with se- rious spiritual preparedness. To that end it is the policy of wisdom to care fully review the year just ending, con- sidering the light places and dark places, the successes and failures. the sins and virtues which have marked 1919. Few there are who vii not find ugly di,sheartening mortal sins, now deprived Of their glamour or at least many venial sins of carelesness and indifference, as well as representing evidences of neglected graces. favors and blessings from God, which in some cases have been sighted, in oth- CT instances abused. The warnings of l conscience have been silenced, or ig- nored, or disregarded; the summons l to do good has been unheeded. The /. retrospect is one calculated to make l the nGditation of the Christian a
 period of sorrow and bitterness and regret.
 1 Had those whom God has summon i ed during 1919 been aware that it was 1 to be their last year on earth, they would not have been careless about
 making preparations for their fina l journey. Realizing that we, too, may
 be called upon to pass before the Judgment seat of the Almighty before the coming year ends ours should be
 the prompt and thorough examination of failures and defects Of the past year, that we may make the firm res olution not to repeat them during the year soon to dawn. People largh an6
 joke about making good resolutions e1 New Years Day to break them tn,
 day after; but, on this serious subject the preacher expressed the hope tha
 his hearers would not prove in tha
 class.
 He cited the two obstacles to spir
 itual reform, i. e.. delay, and overcon fldence. Hence he admonished thos
 who heard him with such close atten
 tion not to wait until New Years t,
 form their resolution to serve Go,
 with more fidelity, to accomplisl
 something for their salvation .durin the coming year. but to make tha firm resolution before leaving tn church.
 During the mass much of tn Christmas music was repeated unde direction of Organist Frank L. F.arrel who, at the offertory played portio i'of the superb Alpine overture to VII
 liam Tell. In the Creed, Mrs. Farre 7 had the beautiful solo, It Incarnatu while the unaccompanied male voice
 in the Sanctus gave a noteworthy in depreciation of majestic and har
