charged by Indian officials and

Reports of noncombatants having

or In the Balkans In the war which

that shocked all India was of a boy
twelve years of age whose hands

Another was of young woman who
was attacked and then bayonetted
by British troops because she was
unable to tell the whereabouts of
the male members of her family.
Scores of reports were received

early, so that no member will lose
any of the class work. Each mect-
ing means something to the young
girl and matron.

DIVINE MERCY Is

OF QUINCY DEAN

The transformation of Mary Mag
dalene from a frivolous-minded girl
into a humble follower of Christ
was cited by Very Rev. George
Long, dean Of the Quincy cathedral,
as signal instance OF Gods mercy
and forgiveness. in a Lenten sermon
in Trinity Episcopal church last
night. He dwelt upon the power of
divine grace issuing in love, mercy
and forgiveness for all repentant
souls.
The fear of the Lord, he said, is
not a cringing attitude of slavish
obedience toward One whom one
breads to offend as one would fear
to disobey a tyrant, but a feeling of
reverence and awe for God whom
Christ revealed to be a loving Fa-
Their whose mercies reach out to all
men who endeayOr to keep His COM
