TO say just word Or two as to WHY
some people do NOT go to church. The
answer is" in just four words: Then

The fact is many people I am not

vine services), would rather go off some
where else than to the House of God.
There is nothing more to this than a
lack OF interest in the church. This is
particularly true in the summer season
when the automobile and the smooth
surface roads SO invitingly stand out
for attention.
remember when [ was a boy our
mother used to ask us children when we
got home from church what the text
was. Also father, who was musically
inclined, would ask what hymns were
sung. Father and mother, of course,
were there,tOo, but they wanted to see
how attentive we were. And we ma
turally did pay attention to what was
going on because we knew we would be
Intercepted when we got home. This
was the means of instilling in us many,
texts and hymns which otherwise we
would never have remembered, but which
we do remember to this day.

SAINT PAUL'S.

Rev. Leo G. Doetterl, pastor.
Sunday: Holy Mass 1870 a. m. Ser
mon subject: "Sin and Fixed Stand
ards of Right ard Wrong" The Re-.
deemer said that one of His reasons
for coming upon earth was "to con-
vince the world of sin, of justice, and
of judgment" Except in a Catholic
Church, one scarcely ever hears the
word "sin" any longer. Excessive
liberty of thought has made every
thing just "opinion.' Everything is
experimental everything matter of
choice. Hence the drifting. You can
not escape this logic: mo Popery"
leads to no religious and no moral.
certainty. Without Church authority
without an agency speaking with the
very authority of Jesus Christ, you,
have only uncertainty, doubt, CROP
ing, and endless difference of ere
ligious opinion" The Son of God was
on earth for thirty-three years to set
tie religious knowledge of His will
His plans, and our terms of salvation.
You must take Him seriously or else
believe not. "He that believeth not,
shall be condemned" There is no
room in Christianity for the pussy
fOoter.
Sunday evening: 7:30 Sermon on
the Virgin Mother Mary. May is the
month of special devotion to Mary.
The Holy Ghost prompted her to say,
Behold, from henceforth all genera
tions shall call me blessed" The
Mother Church forever proclaims her
blessed We would not expect Christ
to fill any church from which His
Mother had been put out.

on hte above topic for May 10 is Luke
18:1-43, especially verses LA, the
Golden Text being verse IS, God, be
merciful to me, sinner.'D
PRAYER is the souls sincere de-
sire, uttered or unexpressed-the mo-
ton of a hidden fire that kindles in
the breast" In our study of this les
sons parallels of our Lord dealing
with earnestness and sincerity in
prayer we should remember that
these parallels belong to the very last
Of his teachings spoken just before
beginning his last journey to Jeru-
salem which ended in his death, as
she took INTO him the twelve and
said unto them, Behold, we go up to
Jerusalem
EarnestnesS in Prayer
One of the prime requisites of pray
er is earnestness. This earnestness in
our I ord's case was to manifest it.
self shortly in the "trong crying and
tears" and bloody sweat of Gethe-
semane and there must be something
of it in all effectual praying. Some
one has referred to this necessity as
"the indifference of God to anything
less than the best there is in man
the determination of Heaven not tC
hear what we are not determined
Heaven shall hear" This is the teach
ing of our Lords parable of the i'm
portunte widow. Luke says the force
OF the parable was "to the end that
they ought always to pray, and not
to faint" The unjust judge "who fear
ed not God and regarded not man

had finally to yield to the persistent
entreaties of the widow, lest, as he
said, "she wear me out by her con-
such unjust judge, but one who IS
both willing and liable to do exceed
ing abundantly above all that we ask
or think, according to the power that
worketh in u.s." So, Jesus says, shall
not God avenge his elect that cry to
him day and night?. Il say unto you
that he will avenge them speedily.
Nevertheless, when the Son of Man
cometh shall we find faith on the
earth?" Shall he find in us the faith
of the importunate widow that keeps
on praying and never losses heart?
Sincerity in Prayer
Another requisite to effective pray
er is sincerity. This Jesus taught in
his parable of the Pharisee and the
Publican. The Pharisee stood and
prayed thus with himself, God, I
thank thee, that I am not as the rest
of men, extortioners, unjust, adulter-
ers or even as this publican. I fast
twice in the week; I give tithes of all
that 1 get" Is this praying or adver-
Using? What a procession of capital
'I's"! There is here no sense of need,
but rather a self-sufficiency that
made prayer impossible.
Humility in Prayer
The true split TO prayer is found
in the prayer of the publican, who,
"standing afar off, would not lift up
so much as his eyes unto heaven, but
SnOte his breast saving Good he
thou merciful to me, a sinner" That
this was effectual prayer, we know
from Jesus comment, 81 say unto

paid for his admission and went IN
where the lights were soft blue, and the
young people standing about in their
bright clothes and with their bright
eyes had an aura of muted glee, OF
being happier within themselves than
it seemed possible mere humans
might be and yet showing this tre-
mendous feeling only with soft smiles
as they looked at one another.
When the orchestra from its plat
form began to play, these happy peo-
pie began to dance; he stood off to
one side and watched them. Here
and there were a few stray girls
and a few stray boys, evidently with
out partners, and once in q while
stray boy and stray girl would
meet with one another, their faces
frightened as they made their
sweet, romantic acquaintance, and
they danced.
He might have gone up to one Of
them, for he could dance. A cousin
said he did unusually we'll, having
fine feeling for rhythm and grace to
his movements. But he remained by
the wall, for though stray boy and
girl meet here for the first time they
really have known one another in
the depth of their hearts. He was
a stranger to any Of them, and they
all were strangers to him. He did
not dare to go up to a stranger and
offer his friendship.
He felt a loneliness and regret
grow upon him as he watched them.
a despair at being not one with them
and inability to endure it longer.
He WENT out then, and instead Of
taking the road that led to the
resort, went the other way, down to
shore, to the very edge of the lake,
where the sand was firm. He walked
slowly, and the water washing at his
feet mingled with the strains of the
music from the orchestra till at
length there was only the sound Of
the water.
He would tell them when he got
back, the stout old woman and his
grandmother, who were playing chess,
that he had been to the dance.
He would tell them he had had a
fine time; it was a needed pretext
to hide himself from them, for they
would never know, nor would any
one, how lonely it was, while others
danced, to walk by the lake listen
ing to it come in with hushful sound
upon the shore.
He came around bend and sud-
denly there was a man walking rap
idly toward him swinging a lantern.
He was some sort of policeman or
guard. The man walked by him
without word and then he turned
and watched the light till it disap-
peared in the darkness. And as it
did it seemed that he was poised at
some point above them, all those
young people dancing; he saw them
vividly and there in the darkness
he took from his pocketbook note
book and a pencil he always. car
ried with him and began to put itno
words what he saw.

S2,784 CLAIM WON
BY NAVAL OFFICER
Lieut.. Foley Asked Sum in Com.
pensation for Support of
Dependent Mother.

Payment of $2,7s465 by the Gov
ernment to Lieut.. John Dyer Foley
y. 8. N, in compensation for funds
he contributed to the support of his
dependent mother was directed yes
terday by the Court of Claims of the
United States.
According to the findings of fact,
Lieut.. Foley's mother lived in Wash
ington with other children between
June 26, 1929. and October "a, 1888,
the period affected by the claim.
During that time he contributed from
$40 to $50 per month to the support
Of his mother.
-Four times in that period he sub
mitted claims to the General Ac-
counting Office for increased rental
and subsistence allowance for a de-
pendent mother, but each claim was
denied. In October, 1888, Lieut.. Foley
was married and his claims as a
bachelor officer were terminated.
Finding that the mother, Mrs.
Thomas William Foley, was dependent
on her son for chief support during
the period named, the court ordered
recovery of the stated sum.

time enough to read a book, lots Of
books, later on"
His grandmother glanced up and
peered at him for a moment with
that strange way she had, as though
not only her eyes but all her face
looked with kindness.
"Yes, Warton," she said, sit
doesn't do to sit there reading all
the time. You didn't come to the
country with me for that. You do
enough Of that at home. Go out for
q little while"
He smiled, his upper lip running a
little jagged with strange unjustif1-
able nervousness, for there was moth
ing to bother him.
Its a good book, and /" he
began, and then changing his mind
added, II guess you're right. can
read any time. I'll go over there"
That name Warton annoyed him
as often as he thought about it, and
1t was often enough; it wasn't regu-
lar name like Bill; or Jim or Joe.
However, he went into the cool. blue
night, the air carrying the fresh, ex-
citing smell of the lake.
THERE was that intimate darkness
- about the place; that strange
quality of immediacy nights have in
country places away from home; the
only lights were those coming from
the cottages, irregularly placed. The
path led out to a road that led to
the highway, and then one walked
along the highway that sloped down
q hill to the dance hall. There were
trees, rich with leaves and shadows,
all about. There was a noise like fear
that he suspected was made by an
owl
Warton walked toward the ball
room. He could see its light now as
he came down the slope, he could
hear the music and young people
were hurrying by him to get there,
going in groups, laughing and happy
because the night was beautiful and
they were going to dance, be held in
one another's arms.
He might have remained at the
resort and read his book, even though
he had been finding 1t difficult to keep
his mind upon the story; that would
have been better. It would have saved
him this feeling of discomfort, this
annoying disturbance. He wondered
why even those who best loved him
and seemed to know him, as his
grandmother, did not leave him alone
to himself and his own kind of joy
and own kind of misery. They, his
grandmother particularly, might have
seen we'll enough that the ball room
was no place for him: it was the
place for those who knew how to
laugh together, and he did not know.
X X X X
THE Others staying at the resort
had been just as strange to one
another as they were to him when
they met for the first time during
the day, but how quickly they had
all become friendly, those other girls
and youths and had been glad to
know one another He was still a
stranger among them; one or two
