law of equality. The tribunal of penance is open to all and to the same holy table come all, rich and poor, young and old, without dsltinction, the only democracy that the world knows. Here your mar riages are blessed and your children bap- tiZed into the glorious democracy of the Catholic church. And here the mortal remains of your loved ones repose one solemn hour, ere they are committed to the silent grave in the hope of blessed resurrection.
 Truly, though it means sacrifices on the part of a congregation and much anx- iety on the part of a pastor, it is a great honor and a rare privilege to rear a temple for the worship of God Almighty. In ancient times it was reserved for the nobility to construct temples of God Almighty. In the Old Testament one king laid the plans, another executed the
 plans and a third repaired and adorned the temple after it had been built David laid the plans. Solomon carried out
 the intentions of his father and King Joas and his successors repaired and embel- ! lished the temple after its erection.
 In the beginning of the Christian era
 the first basilicas and cathedrals were
 built in Rome and Constantinople by the
 Emperor Constantine. Later on, the kings of England, France, the Edwards and the Louis's, good Queen Margaret in Scotland, the devout Stephen and Eiiz- abeth, king and queen of Hungary built great churches which are still admired as
 memorials Of their piety.
 But where is there the church iu this country that has been built by the mo- bility? From north to south and east
 to west, our country is dotted with mag
 nihcent churches but they are ali built I h~1 nT%In a ample of the zeal of our Catholic people This church, an ornament to this section
 of the city of Norwich is a memorial of
 the interest, zeal and charity of the priests and people of this parish.
 | Every church that is erected is an act of faith and and religion. Outside that Catholic church it Is indeed sad to see I the faith disappearing. Those who olsa held the Bible as the only rule of faith
 are now scoffing at the Bible. They fol-
 lowed their own private judgment and
 many now deny the truth of the Bible
 and also the Divinity of Jesus Christ, the immortality of the soul and even the ex- istences of God. When. however, we
 Catholics build . church it speaks for our faith in revelation. and in the divinity
 of Christ, for on every Catholic church there is a cross to receive the first rays of the morning sun and to reflect it's last
 rays as it sinks below the western horiz-
 on. The sanctuary lamp, burning day
 and night, indicates the real presence of
 our Lord In the tabernacle of the altar.

TELLS BENNETT HE CAN
 ELIMINATE BAD CROSSINGS

Attorney General Frank E. Healey has yiven an opinion to Highway Commis- Iloner Charles ]. Bennett advising him that he had the authority on his own ini- lative to eliminate grade crossings under certain dangerous conditions. The attorney general calls attention to action of the public utilities commission in sus- pending the enforcement of the statute which requires railroads to eliminate each year one crossing for every 50 miles of railroad operated by them, the suspen- sion being due to the financial condition of the New Haven railroad. MT. Healy advises the highway commission to con- fer with the public utilities commission before taking action for the elimination of the crossings.

Where Did it Coz

Taking the cost of living before
the war as 100, the January Index
of the Industrial Conference Board
at Washington showed the cost OF
living for that month was 1927 as
against 20-.5 at the peak in 1920,
That would mean a reduction of 20
per cent. Although the FARMERS
prices for his food crops came down
to rock bottom just before January,
tile Index for food shows $50 as
against a 1920 peak of 219, or a re-
duetion of only 81 IL per cent.
Where did the rest of it go? THAT
question has got to be answered be-
tore long, because the people are
growing tired of being told that
everything is cheaper" and still go
ing down, when In fact II Is about as
haqd to make a dollar do any more
duty today than ii would do a year
ago, II residents OF every part Of

Life Insur nee Paid Quickly.

An example of the value Of life
insurance was shown locally this
week after the sudden death Of Lynn
Brooks. On March 81, Lynn made
an application for a $4,000 life in
surance policy, through Frank Lam
berton, local agent for the Ilaha
State Life Insurance company The
policy was written, he passed the
physical examination, and the pol
icy, dated April 1, was delivered,
On the 18th Lynn died and eighteen
hours later proof of death had been
made and the check for $4,000, less
the first premium which was to
have been paid May 1st, was de-
livered to his widow other com
panies would have met the payment
as readily, but only with a home
company could the payment have
been made in the record time that
this was met.
