SUGGESTING MAJOR HULL
 As GUBERNAToRIAL CANDIDATE

State Attorney Hadiai A Hull of New London is mentioned in Washington despatch to the Hartford Times as a possible candidate for governor on the democratic ticket this fall Major Hull was confined to his bed by a slight at tack of indigestion Wednesday, but 1t was learned that he was disposed to lool. upon mention of his name largely as joke.
 However, the major did not say he was not a candidate, neither did he ad- mt that he Is. and future developments wiM naturally determine his attitude with respect to such nomination.
 The despatch to the Times states:
 "Rumor has 1t that Philip Troup, who resigned az postmaster of New Haven, will be candidate for the United States senate with William E. Thoms of Water bury, Augustine LonaEan of Hartford Thomas J. SpellacX of Hartford or Had laG A. Hull of New Aondon for runnlils mate for governor.
 ''Troup on the state ticket would eliminate Mayor David E. FitzGerald from tho ticket and to preSSnt this it is l said the FitzGerald men woNld just as soon see Troup connect with the con. gressional nomination against T.lson Thomas Chadborne Of Greenwich fAr tn, senate on the democratic ticket Nitf Troup for governor is another combina tion possible. according to Nutmeg Stat, politicians who have been in town re ! cenuy."

ASH WEDNESDAY, SERVICES IN CHURCHES

rhe advent of Len& was observed Wed nesday with morning and evening ser vices at Christ Episcopal church and Trinity Episcopal church There waa morning prayer, holy communion and sermon at 10.S0 at each church and even- Ing prayer and sermon at 7.45.
 At Christ Episcopal church the rector. Rev, R. R. Graham. preached the sermon at the evening service taking for his text the 34th verse of the l30th Psalm
 Ash Wednesday suggests to us know ledge and confession of our sins, said Rev. Mr. Graham in opening his sermon. It also suggests the Idea of God as the One who judges and punishes us for our sins. The primary idea of Ash Wednes- day Is. this idea Of God who punishe1 us, who recognizes and sees our sins. Our purpose In Lent ought to be to get a frmera knowledge of religion and Q deeper Knowledge of God.
 Let us turn to the aspect presented to us In our scripture reading tonight We turn first to the story of Jonah. This story Is told to make clearer to our minds the conception of God. And God as represented ] in the Book of Jonah fa certainly different from the God who simply judges mankind This is made different by his treatment of the people. The people repent and God Is willing to forgive them and, withdraw those pun Isnments which he inflicted. M
 AS I read that lesson did 1t not strike you that 1t presented a rather strange an unusual idea of God? Jonah was an- gry as could be because his reputation as a prophet seemed to be destroyed But God asked. Do you well to be angry God said. Ought not have compassion of this city?
 We turn to the lesson of the parables of the Est sheep the lost piece of slveI and the prodigal son. Here we have . different idea of God. God is represented here as the One who is always watching for the return of the one who has gone Is lost. God is not always looking fol faults.
 The picture of god represented to U. in our scripture reading this evening i. that of a Sod 5f mercy. We are ready to point out and condemn the faults o l others We are extreme to mark wha has come amiss in order that We ma1 show our superiority. God is too big tt l be extreme.

 What Lent means to fhe members. io[ the Episcopal. church was the subject which Rev. J. Eldred Brown took for his topic at Trinity church Wednesday evening. Rev. MT, Brown said that as far back as 156-190 A. D. we find Lent religiously observed by tho church and even then 1t was not a new custom. Since then 1t has been, reIigiously and constantly observed by X thess Christian church. II has always been God s plan to set aside part of each year for a pen itentisls season A., .ssse ,xfs ss
 What can we do during this period to make Lent of lasting .bensfft to, us.ss t is season where we should draw closer to God and If the end we. win ind oIr- selves stronger. h the lknowledges sioE Christ and more jealous to do his work We should not get the means and end of Lent confused. Ons means by which we can make Lent profitable to us ia to abstain from all amuse1rG Gnts, no matter how trivial. The people of old had temptations but these temptationi arc changed but should not be. allowed to draw our, attention from God. We are asked to give up certain pleasures at this time .And n Is q test of strength with us. Constant indulgence does ro' tend to. strengthen us In our doing oi God,s.s work. s4.s4-.. .s. v.. ~a.t.4 A-
 Fasting is. another way in which VI observe Lent Many. peculiar blessing have come to people stArou gh fasting Christ himself .fasted before any of .hli great iworIss. It Is symbolic of overcom ing the .hest and even thes most negii gent. observe this part of. Lent. 6 course 1t Is not well to fast to the in fury of ones health We should no fast only with regard fo food but iron other things. az evil actions an, thoughts {. We must give up eetling that are dearsto us and present the cos of them to. Go6 for His work.
 The church service is another mean by which Lent can be refigiousiy keoi More frequent services in the churcl and regular attendance at these service 1 and always renemhering that God see our efforts and rewards us accordingly ! We should also Dc more attentive to. ou private, devotions and learn 10 appre ciate Gods love snd try to como to th end of Lent thoroughly repentent an cleansed of our sins.

 and were all very cIeverly done. He,l ry La Fontaine of Norwich, very kina- ly assisted in the choruses, and the applause, which followed his solo show. ed that it was fully appreciated.

 In such company of stars it would be hard to pick out any specials.
