SOUTH AMERICAN ANIMAL
 TYPICAL OF MANY HUMANS

Pertinent because of the nearness of Lent, and because, as he pointed out, the sin frequently results from one of the excesses which during Lent all Catholics are supposed to avoid, the theme of Rev. Peter J. Cunys sermon at the high mass in St. Patrick's church Sunday was the last of the Seven Deadly Sins, to which he has been giving consideration through a series of pre-Lenten sermons.
 A little animal, the habitat of which is Central and South America, which clings with hooked claws to the boughs of trees and eats the leaves as he slowly makes his way, the sIoth, was taken as typical of some humans, and as giving his name to this seventh in the list of sources of sin.
 Sloth is of two varieties, physical and spiritual and it was to the former type that the preacher devoted his at tention Sunday, directing the thought of his auditors to the causes of physi- cal sleth, weakness and overweight. AS a proof of the manner in which one source of sin overlaps the other, the weakness of sloth may result from
 covetousness, as in the case of the miser who denies himself enough to
 eat, or from excesses in lust or glut-
 tony or other sins, the effect being to undermine strength. to result in dis ease or impaired vitality which leaves one susceptible to the attack of every germ which comes along. So most cases of WeaknesS-except those few which may be congenital. and these Nature generally takes care of-may be traced to some violation of health or moral laws.
 The advent of the Lenten season provides opportunity for denial of those particular indulgences which. as each one knows, result in this physical l weakness. Salutary restrictions in 1 the matter of appetite and pleasure,
 which must have the effect of making l the soul the master of this body which 1 is it's temple, were suggested. Espe- l cially the coming Lent, when the ob- l ligation of fasting is removed by spe- 1 cial dispensation because Of the after 1 effects of the influenza epidemic, there should be renewed effort to abstain 1 from all intoxicating drink, from over eating, from amusements harmless in themselves during other seasons, and ways were indicated by which Catho- l lies may combat this tendency to sloth 1 by more punctual attendance at mass l-daily if possible-by more frequent reception of the sacraments and by making the Lenten period in genera
 a source of spiritual and physical strength, resulting in sound mint in 8 sound, healthy and beautiful body.
 Sunday was Quinquagesima Sunday about fifty days before Easter, the epist1e read in all the masses being I Cor. Kill. 1-13 and the gospel Luke xviii. 31-43, the latter the narration
 of the restoration to sight of the blin6 man of Jericho

After the service of song assisted by Swahn's orchestra, Secretary Edwin Hill off cred prayer and Rev. Richard R. Graham delivered an interesting ad dress: he said in part
 I want to talk to you men today about what the American people eX- pect of you. When you offered your selves to the service of your country we expected that you would prove the deciding factor in the great war, and these expectations have been fully justified.
 The country needs you just as much
 today and in these days that are coming as it needed you in the great struggle. You and men like you
 will be a deciding factor in the social,
 political and religious life of your country. Your two years of eXperi- ence in the service of your country
 have fitted you to take up the re- responsibilities that arc surely yours. The sectional feeling and the class feeling have largely been plotted out because men from all sections and classes have served shoulder to shoulder and the feeling in all hearts
 are feelings of loyalty to our common countryq.
 You are to play an important part in the future of the nation, and in the last analysis Almight God must guide you in your action as you seek 1 to do your duty. We believe you will 1 not disappoint us in the great days i just ahead of us.
