ENEMIES OF CHURCH AND CHRISTIANITY
Pointed Out in Sermon By Father KilcOyne in
 Sunday Sermon
AT PLAINvILLE

Terming the passive Catholicism practiced by the so-called liberals William P. Kiicoyne. curate at our Lady of Mercy churc~ in Platnville and former assistant p1stor of St
 Margaret's church, this city. yester- day told attendants of the 10 o'clock mass that "lukewarm and half-hearted Catholics were, by their indifference, not only weak ening their own religion, but all Christianity"
 His sermon was based on a pass age of the days gospel: He that Is not with Me is against Me; and He that gathereth not with Me,
 scattereth."
 Calling this age of unbelief he pointed to the widespread laxity of religious thought and prevail ence of an easy-going skeptism.
 He directed critisicm to those Catholics who "worse than heret-
 ics, they pour destructive and in- correct judgment against the church. They call each move or the pope a gesture of world poli-
 tics, each bishops request for funds
 draw the distrusting query where
 does the money go?" the Lord
 knows what is said of the parish priest"
 He likened the eternal war be-
 tween good and evil to a nation in arms, reminding his hearers that, in a state of war. any move other than those in aid of tho fatherland was considered treason.

 Brave Rain and SIusf as Spring Prepares Arrival

With spring scheduled to arrive at s:43 o'clock this evening, Wa terbury had anything but spring like aspect today with snow. a couple of inches thick on the ground and a cold rain falling, forming slushy puddles and crus- ty surface throughout the city. Public utility companies felt the force of the storm slightly, how ever, and the main force of the attack of the elements was should cred on to autoists and pedestrians.
 The snow began falling early yesterday morning. Throughout the day 1t was whipped along by fair wind. Late yesterday afternoon the snow turned to sleet and last evening a frozen crust formed the top. At about 2 o'clock last eve- ming the sleet let up but during the early hours of this morning rain began. It froze, slightly, ada ing fore to the crusty covering on the snow. And where 1t didn't freeze large puddles we're formed, flooding gutters and cross-walks.
 Motor traffic was greatly ham, pered today. Autos were not on the highways in large numbers early today but the amount of traffic increased towards noon.

that their duties were being per- formed practically up to schedule The light, power and telephone companies reported practically no interruption. The trolley cars ran according to schedule but the bus ses were forced to keep up their schedules under much stress, due to the hilly streets, which are quite slippery.
 Had 1t been colder, the telephone and power companies stated, much more trouble would have been ex- perienced due to the sleet freezing on the overhead wires.
 Pedestrians found 1t hard going today. Sidewalks were slushy and slippery and roads and cross-walks had an over abundance of water on them.
 Superintendent of Street Thomas J. Fleming had men about the central part of the city today clear ing away the snow and slush and keeping gutters open so as to carry off the surface water through the storm sewers.
 Tomorrow spring will be on in earnest and advance weather re- ports promise a rise in the tenn perature. This Is taken to indi- cate that the snow and slush will quickly melt away. Tonight, though with the customary drop in the temperature, driving and walking are expected to be dangerous.
