WoOdstOwn

Last Sunday, January 9Th was the
Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus, a
day set aside by the Catholic Church
on which the faithful are requested
to give special honor and generation
to the Sacred Name of Our Saviour.
Besides this special Feast Day, re
spect for the Holy Name is inculcated
every day of the year as is proved by
the existence of Holy Name societies,
the purpose of which is to promote
respect for the Holy Name and to en-
gender clean speech. Such a society
progresses in st. Joseph's Catholic
Church, Woodstown, and under the
auspices of this society the men of the
parish receive the Sacraments of Con-
fession and Communion monthly.
This act of faith, the reception of
the Sacraments, the men performed on
Sunday morning at the Mass.
In the evening a Holy Name rally
took place in the Church. The Rosary
was recited, which was followed by an
appropriate sermon, the preacher be
ing Rev. Francis Medallion, assistant
pastor of the Church of the Immacu-
late Conception in Camden.
At both services Mrs. Howard Reed
had charge of the choir and presided
at the organ.
The Benediction of the Blessed Sac
rament concluded the services.

Got On Their Nerves

A big scare was created a few
nights ago over on the Summerill
tract when a man came tumbling out
of a house on 18th Street. The "Rec-
ord's" robbery report had gotten the
people in fear lest they be visited by
the light fingered gentry. So the re-
port spread thick and fast that a rob-
Der had been at work. The Records
watch dog got on the job and did a
little investigation and found that the
robbery was a myth and the only
foundation for the m was that two
men had gotten into a fight and the
visitor had beat the man of the house
up and had dumped him out of the
house. That's all.

SacriIegious VandaI.-Everyone has
heard Of the miraculous statue of Our
Lady and the Divine Infant, honored
at Albert. 1t is very ancient, of stone,
and somewhat defaced. Twice during
the course of the war it had to be
transferred to Amiens to shelter it
from destruction. and once it was
saved by Australians. Since the re-
opening of the Cathedral, it has been
placed in the chapel dedicated to Our
Lady, and the faithful of Amiens and
the region OF Albert have come in
crowds to pray there. What, then,
was the stupefaction of the clergy
and the horror of the people, when, on
recent Sunday morning at the early
Mass. it was found that the head of
the Infant Jesus had been broken off
and carried away! 1t is believed that
this action is the result of sacrileg-
iOus mania for souvenirs, which is un-
happily spreading amongst certain of
the Allied armies. Indignation is
great, and an inquiry is being made
That the statue, which has weathered
the war, should be mutilated now
when the enemy has retired, is sad
commentary on the lack of reverence
which exists outside the sons of the
Catholic Church.
