SUNDAY LENTEN SERMON AT ST. PATRICKlS CHURCH

Deny yourself, do ,penanee, take the saints and the Christ for your exam pie and initiate them, said Father Benjamin of the Passionist Order of Boston, Sunday evening, at the first of the Lenten services at St. Pat rick's church.
 We are by nature imitators, said Father Benjamin, we initiate that which appeals to us. The child imi- tates his parents, the boy some character in history, because he sees the good in them and wants to be like them. The artist and sculptor take nature and life for their mod els. Example is the greatest tool in the education of mankind and few seldom learn except from example. The saints have been placed before us as examples that we might follow, They were those who denied them selves and took up the cross of Christ. They suffered yet found joy in the suffering. Their outstanding quality was the love of Christ and for this love they suffered.
 Christ's life was one of suffering and humiliation but yet he found happiness in his most bitter mo ments. All manner of things were said against him he suffered all man her of shame that could be heaped upon him by the unbeliever. Anyone who studies Christ's life cannot hell loving the cross.
 Christ knew great suffering but yet he knew great happiness. If we wish
 to know this happiness we must suffer and do penapce. Go and talk with the men of the street and they will laugh at you, telling you thai
 your belief is not theirs. They say blest be the rich for they shall in herit the kingdom of earth They follow teachings of the earthly and not of Christ. They look prosper oqs and if all goes well they are con tent but when suffering comes they cry, Oh, why does God desert me ana let me suffer?
 If you want to be truly happy study the Saviour and walk in his steps 1 Then when your suffering comes ev- cry cross will be beneficial to you fol
 you have the example of the Savior ever before you.

plant is of the latest design. In plan
ming the plant every possible effort
was made tc ensure perfect santa
ton in every operation. The building,
which was constructed to accommodate
heavy machinery and to afford the
best possible lighting, offers unusual
opportunities in this direction.
In the new quarters of the Benning-
ton Sanitary laundry it will be pcs
sible to avoid all contact between in
coming and outgoing laundry. Wash
ings can be received at one end OF the
building for the first operation and
can be passed from machine to ma
chine until they reach the office ready
for delivery to customers.
A feature of the machinery that
will appeal to customers is the provis-
ions that have been taken to guard
against wear on fabric. Friction of
all kinds has been eliminated Deli
cate articles Of apparel such as Shirt
waists can be handled at the laundry
much more readily and with greater
safety than at home.
Another facility that will meet with
the approval of customers is the steri
lizer, a machine that revolyes such
fab.ics as bath towels in a super
heated atmosphere and at the same
time extracts all lint as thoroughly
as high power vacuum cleaner.

chinery Mr.. Powers and his son visi-

time become patrons should visit the
premises and see for themselves how
well the plant deserves the name of

MUCH DOUBT As I
|. To C. D. P. WINNER
IS IN EVIDENCE
May Be None of the Present
Leading Candidates
CHANCE FOR DARK HORSE
Leaders Want Man Who Can Harmon
Ize Supporters of All the Va
rious Factions.

Washington, April 29.-Results in
the popular Presidential primaries
within the last few weeks have con-
vinced most of the unpledged political
leaders in Washington that the Re-
publican National Convention at Chi
Icago next June will not be controlled
by any one CT the prominent candi-
dates now in the field.
So complicated is the situation, as
it appears from the direct votes OF
the people in States widely separated
politically as we'll as geographically
that dark horse apparently never
had better chance to win the united
support of the Republican party
The one great outstanding fact
seems to be that the Republicans OF
all factions are determined to select
a candidate upon whom all can agree.
Senator Johnson California; has
been gaining in the primaries, but he
has not corralled enough delegates to
give him commanding position.
Frankly, many OF Johnson's best poll
ticaf friends do not think he can be
nominated, although they believe he
can have great deal to say about the
choice of the convention perhaps a
deciding voice.
But Johnson is getting delegates.
and every one he gets hurts Gen Wood.
Johnson's primary successes are ap-
parently killing off Gen. Wood, al
though they are not cinciling the nom
nation for the California Senator
Another evidence of the manner in
which each of the prominent Republi-
can candidates is playing against the
others is found in Ohio, where Sena-
tor Harding (Ohio) has been greatly
weakened by the big vote given Gen.
Wood, who. according TO the latest re-
turns, has split the State delegation
Gov. Lowden( ILL., has gained dele
gates in several of the middle West
ern States where his friends have
been assiduously at work. but his
showing In his home State has not
libeen convincing and he has not DEM
onstrated in any other State his abili-
ty to carry popular primaries. He is
disappointing his hackers in that re-
spect.
