TRINITY SUNDAY GOSPEL BASIS
 OF FIRM BELIEF. SAYS PRIEST

Over and over again the sanctuary railing at St. Patrick's church was filled with communicants at the. 7.30 mass Sunday morning., first place being given the members of the Holy Name society, James. J. Finnegan. president, for whom had been reserved The low mass was read by Rev. Myles P. Calvin. who had the assistance of Rev. Philip J. Mooney in giving communion. Tho day was Trinity Sunday. the yestnents and altar hangings being white. The epistle read in all the ma asses throughout the world was Romans II:S3-3e and the gospel was Matthew XXYIH:1S-2e.
 Father Calvin preached on the mys- tery of the Holy. Trinity-a dogma of faith which some profess to doubt simp- ly because they cannot understand One God in Three Divine Persons; yet such doubters are surrounded by mysteries In their daily lives. Who can solve, for example, the mystery 'of the earth re- volving in its orbit. of the embryo oak in the tiny acorn of the common yet un- explainable force of electricity? ,
 It is sufficient fer Cathdics that the Second Person of this Blessed, Trinity has said. in the gospel of the Sunday, Going, therefore, teach ye all nations
 
 and of the. Son and of the Holy Ghost What the Redeemer has said His followers can believe. The preacher indicated how men can prove their, firm faith .in.~ this great mystery by loving obedience for the Father. Who is our good Father. by initiating the 9on. the Redoemer of man kind Who assumed mortal nature to be- come our Elder Brother that with Him we might become in truth sons of the Most High and by needing the .inspira- and Helper of man, the revealer, as it were, of the eternal truths of the Fathl CT. yet too often forgotten, overlooked.
 Sunday afternoon, at the regular yes pers. the IF children who had received first Holy Communion Saturday at eight o'clock at a special mass offered for ,theR by Rev. Father Calvin, were present and received the Scapular, or badge of the Blessed Virgin, thus enrolling themselves under the protection of the immaculate te Mother of the Savh7ur. The officiating priest at this ceremonial was Rev. Fath- CT Mooney .
 The children were dressed as for Sat urdays service, the little girls in dainty white. Again the department and the reverentfal and intelligent manner of the children gave evidence of the careful ana painstakinE instruction which they are receiving from their teachers the Sister: of Mercy, in the parish school and ;th, Sunday school. At the offertory Saturday l the children recited a hymn very effec 1 lively. Miss Helen -Dougherty was or. ganist. directing the harmonious sfngin. of the girls choir.
