 "Thc Sacred Heart of Jesus Ia All Mercy" was the title of tho sermon delivered by Father O'Henrn ut tho services lust ovc- nlng. In part ho said: "rhe Sacred Heart is tho model of all virtues which showed as our own henrt Tho study of that henrt teachct us tho way to secure true happl- noss. We rclaize that happiness Is tho motive power of mankind. Happiness tx tho possession anu enjoyment of good. Mans thoughts plans, acts have for thoir end tho possession of good. The weak and helpless cry of tho infant and tho feeble, tottoring steps of the agod, seek happiness in tho possession n and enjoyment of somo good. It is our croator who has implanted that universal. perpetual, inVvinci- bio tendency 50 deeply. and so widely in eVerybody's heart.
 "Virtue by its faIrcst scenes of- fers to our senses pargdises of do light. The vlrtuous use Of our ap- potlt.s and passions carries h swift message of Joy to our hearts, TheHo appctitos rightly used arc Gods gifts. UnhappiIy we nbuso those gifts when we pervcrt Gods purpose and make the qualification of passion tho end of lifc.
 What channels of happiness are open Co uS in tho pursuit of truth, in the possession of tho rich treas- ures which our mind stores up in our intellectual paths of lifc. What happiness along the avenues or our uhiIy life or friendship, hOh- pItality. family ties, of our visits to Gods church. of the sweet peace 0f conscience. Yet. there k something lacking in all that happiness.
 St Augustine tells us "I'hou hast made us for myself and rest. less is our heart until it rest In thee" The search for happiness is the senrch for God. Then truly, tho only happy heart Is tho one which rests in tho hand of God. WhyY Because Christ's mercy for us springs from his love-"
