 WAS DENOUNCED
Rev F. O'Brien Continues Sermon Series at St
 Margaret's Church

"The Hearth" was the title of the fourth sermon in a series of very sound and impressive talks being given each Tuesday night during Lent at St Margaret's church. The speaker is Rev Fran cis A. O'Brien, missionary Oblate of Mary Immaculate. The sermons which are delivered each week by Father O'Brien, a speaker of un- usual power and simple directness, are a continuation from one week to the next of certain aspects of marriage from the viewpoint of kthe Catholic church.; it's signifi- canoe and meaning, how it should be treated, how it is treated, and the modern conception of mar riage.
 In his sermon last night Father O'Brien dwelt on that phase of married life that applies to the parents duties to children. chill dren to parents, and children to themselves. He pointed out what the Christian home should be, like wise what it more often than not is. He denounced the modern trend of living which has no time for the true Christian home as it should be. He pointed out the du- ties of parents and children as emphasized in the fourth com mandment, "honor thy father and thy mother" which Father O'Brien pointed out was a com mandment meant to be obeyed.
 He cited the absence of real home life in real Christian man. ner as the cause of so much crime in the youth today, the majority of criminals, as he pointed out for New York state last year, existing among youths about twenty years of age. Lack of respect of chil- dren for parents and latter's fail ure to enforce obedience from their children were the causes of the moral collapse of the home today, Also much of the general condition of the nation, he pointed out, was the result of home life, since na- ton was the accumulation or many homes.
 There will be three more ser mons in the series conducted by Father O'Brien, and while all are connected in the main theme, mar riage. each one is complete in It. self. The sermon and evening de. votions next Tuesday night Will start at the usual time, 7:45 o'clock, Father O'Brien's topic to be, Dying Embers".

 The speaker, who has been dec- orated by the various allied na- tions, told also of his visits and ob- seryations of the French Chamber of Deputies and gave the boys an insight as to the frequent whole sale resignation of the French cabinet and explained the cause of the recent riots in Paris. A civil war involving the whole country wouldn't surprise the major. Only war with foreign foe can solid fly the French nation.

Every European Nation Preparing for That Day Says
 Former Fidac Commander in Legion Address

Major Edward l.. White of New Haven, former commander of the international alliance of World War veterans known as the FIDAC, reviewed his experiences in Europe last evening speaking before the members of Corporal Frank Coyle Post, American Le- zion. Major White, who has placed a wreath before the last resting place of the ''Unknown Soldier" of every nation which fought with Allies and also be- fore Germany's perpetual memor- ial remarked, T can still smell the odor of passing hospital trains. can still see the mangled bodies of my own buddies and those of the enemy. I am not for war, but I stand and I hope every legion- naire stands for preparedness, which is the only preventive l know. of a repetition of the World War;.
 ''As I speak to you tonight. feel that another worldwide confla- grafton is coming. Every nation in Europe is preparing for that day. There are several nations that are nothing but smouldering volcanoes and who knows when the eruption may come. It may be tomorrow, the next day, next week, next month or next year, but it is my sincere conviction it is coming. Economic, political and social reasons may be quoted and jealousy and hatred of centuries may be added to the list".
 "We are never going to collect from France. She needs the money for armament, for Notifications and for the "big day..
 In his impressive talk, which was concluded with an appeal for Legionnaires to be alert and ag- gressive for adequate preparedness Major White described his visit to England and his chats with the Prince of Wales, his tour of France, Belgium, Italy, Poland, Rumania, Germany, Serbia and the Balkan states. He comment ed on the happiness of the people of Italy and the remarkable CO., hesion of the various classes of the Polish nation.
 Ex-service men are the ruling class today of the nations of Flu rope. Hitler, King Carol and others are catering to them. They are giving them food, clothing, and in Rumania, particularly, land grants. He declared that Hitler was matchless orator, who could move an audience of thousands to laughter or to tears.

LOCAL FACTORIES SAVED FROM FLOOD
Street Department Em=
 plOyes Respond to Two >, Emergency Calls

Street department employees yes- terday afternoon prevented the Naugatuck river from seriously flooding the plant of the Blake and Johnson company in Waterville by digging a channel around an ice jam., The ice billed up against Q trestle siding at the plant of the Beardsley and Wolcott company and the river rose. Water covered 8 good portion of the Blake and Johnson company's land but it did not get into the buildings because of the quick and efficient work of the street department men.
 The Naugatuck and Mad rivers were flowing along peacefully to- day, slightly swollen but giving no threat of causing floods. The slightly cooler weather has stopped the thawing considerably with the result that the rivers are gradually getting down to their normal height.

By special arrangement made with Paramount Pictures corpor- ation, Waterbury is to have the honor of presenting the New Eng land premiere of the motion pie ture Death Takes a Holiday" starting on Saturday at the State theater.
 Coming direct to Waterbury after two weeks engagement at the Paramount theater in New York city, Death Takes Holiday" will no doubt cause considerable com ment in Waterbury because of it's unique theme, it's powerful drama, and it's wide scope or story.
 The story of Death Takes a Holiday" is built on the idea that death, curious to discover what men hold so dear in life, to un- derstand why people fear him so, emerges on the human form of a dashing, romantic lover, and for three days tests all the human il- lusions.
 He becomes the guest of honor at a gay house party, keeping his true identity secret, and dazzles the young women present with his beauty, HIS WlC anu HIS IlySIerlouS importance.
 With each of them he seeks to find the real thrill of love, for he has been told that, of all human emotions, love is the strongest and dearest. But with each successive sweetheart, he fails to find the thrill he expects, until at last, he ,captivates the heart of one girl and discovers the true meaning of life and love. Dreading to reveal his real personality, he puts the fatal moment off until the very last sec- ond of his holiday"
 March's role in this picture has been called greater than his part of "Dr Jekyll and MT Hyde" that

 Supporting March in Death Takes 8 Holiday" are Evelyn Ven able, recently seen with Dorothea Wieck in Cradle Song" Sir Guy Standing and Kent Taylor, and sev- eral distinguished actors imported from the New York stage, notably Katherine Alexander, Helen Vest ley and Harry Travers.
 According to advance reports, the production has been hand somely directed and beautifully mounted, to make this picture one of the outstanding picture of the season.
