DUE
 TO CARELESSNESS
K e C ent Accidents At= tribnted to Negligence on
 Part of Pedestrians

But for the carelessness of adult pedestrians Connecticut's January traffic fatality score would have shown no increase over January, 1895, and might have been one or two less than that month, the State Department of Motor Vehicles Traf- fic Topics commented today, in pointing out that 24 of the 37 fa- talities were pedestrians. The death record showed an increase of five over last years record of the same month.
 Pedestrians do, consistently, dis play too little consideration for their own welfare" declares the bulletin "They walk along highways in storms with their heads bowed to the winds and paying no attention to vehicular traffic; crossing streets between intersections when surfaces are made slippery by indictment weather and actually stepping out from between parked cars into the path of vehicles in motion, as well as crossing thoroughfares against signal lights.
 "Yet Connecticut must shoulder the onus of a bad traffic fatality month because adults will not safe guard themselves. Only one child pedestrian was killed and that fa- tality was the fault of the car op- perator who was careless.
 "The bulk of pedestrian fatalities were caused during dark hours, when natural light had faded and operators had the additional hazard of abbreviated visual distance"

forts to bring the light of faith to these neglected people. We have accomplished little. Much re- mains to be done.
 Then there is the larger field where millions sit in darkness and in the shadow of death. There are 77,0O0 missionary priests, brothers, and sisters in the for eign field. They have left all to follow Christ and are spending themselves and being spent for the salvation of Christ's redeemed. They need our prayers and funds to continue the work. Shall we neglect them? Shall their sacri- fees all fail because of our fail- ure to help them? The unfortun- ate condition in Europe has cut oil the hitherto large contribution to the Missions. Our Holy Father said recently that because of Eu- ropes helplessness, the very life of the Missions depends on Amer ica. We children of the faith cannot be unfaithful to the soul stirring appeal of the Holy Father.
 Give generously next Sunday. Save the missions in the far of lands. Let your offerings be an outward sign of your faith and of your love of Mother Church.
 Sincerely yours in Christ,

 Bishop Endorses Campaign With Personal Letter

 Transcript Comments
 The Catholic Transcript says of the drive:
 The Society for the Propagation of the Faith, through its director, the Rev. Joseph M. Grimm, has an- nounced the beginning of the arl- ilual campaign for membership for Sunday, February 14. The annaunce- rnent should challenge the attention of every Catholic, man, woman or child, in Connecticut. The cam paign itself should enlist the inti- mate spiritual and financial support of the clergy, the religious and and the laity. It is major offensive in an aggressive attempt to bring re- ligion tp those who have no re- ligion, faith to those who are in- fideis and Christianity to the vast multitudes who are still living in the shadow of organism.
 The aims of the Hartford carl1- paign are four in number:
 l. To enroll every Catholic adult of the diocese as a member of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.
 2. To enroll every child of the diocese as & member of the associa- ton of the Holy Childhood.
 3. To enroll every priest as a member of the Missionary Union of the clergy.
 4. To enroll every Sister of the diocese as 8 member of the crusade of prayer for the missions"

EPISCOPAL RESIDENCE 14O Pennington Avenue
 Hartford, Connecticut


 Dear Father:
 Sunday, February 14th, is Mis- sion Sunday throughout the Dio- cese of Hartford. It is day of prayer for the great Mission field of the Catholic Church. Our Lord emphasized the need of prayer for willing and generous workers in His kingdom. They were to carry His Name to the ends of the earth, teaching all nations and baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost (6t. Matthew XVIII 19). In every age, noble men and women have been faithful to this commission. We are ourselves beneficiaries of their zeal, sacri- fees and indefatigable labors. We should ever be mindful of our in- heritance, preserved and trans mitted by the church. and give thanks to God for His ineffable gift.
 The home missions claim our support. The Apostolate among the negro and Indian races is our immediate duty. There is a con- stant need of money to help our missionaries at home in their ef-

CITY TO OBSERVE BROTHERHOOD DAY
February zO-zl to Be Dedicated to Program
 of Tolerance

Announcement of the endorsement of Brotherhood Day, to be observed locally February 20 and 21, by Presi- dent Roosevelt, was made today by the joint chairmen of the local Brotherhood Day committee. Atty. Max Traurig and Thomas Smith. The purpose of Brotherhood Day, which will be observed in more than :, 1000 communities throughout the country, is to emphasize coopera- ton among Protestants, Catholics and Jews as American citizens and to present a united front against current totalitarianisms and the inl- portat ation of foreign propaganda Of hatred and strife.
 The presidents endorsement of Brotherhood Day was made in letter to the national conference of Jews and Christians under whose auspices the observance will be held. The president said:
 That all the various groups within our country, whether Pro- testant, Catholics or Jews, should cultivate the arts of mutual under standing, friendship and coopera- ton in all the tasks which they share as citizens, and present a united front against everything that threatens the high ideals which they hold in common is beyond all question, and Brotherhood Day is a wholesome reminder of duties and opportunities that summon us all.
 T hope that the observance this year, which I am informed is set for the week beginning February 20. will be widespread and success full"
 In making public the presidents endorsement, the local chairmen, emphasized that Brotherhood Day does not aim to debate doctrinal dif- ferences. It seeks no least common multiple of faith. It does not advo- cate church union or common wor- ship. On the contrary 1t bids each man to be loyal to the group to which he belongs.
 "The Brotherhood Day idea" they said assumes that all who believe in God and interpret life's meaning
 
 ill terms of the spirit have much in common and are equally con- cerned to combat current pagan isms, atheisms, and materialistic in- fiuences that threaten not this or that religion but all religion.
 'It suggests that there are wide areas of activity of common con- cern to Protestants. Catholic and Jews and that in these they can cooperate"
 Waterbury's chairmen also out lined plans for the local observance of Brotherhood Day. They said leading Christian and Jewish clergy men and laymen were cooperating in working out the details for what is expected to be a recor dobServ- ance this year. Among the events planned for Brotherhood Day is a radio broadcast.
 The chairmen said that local rab- bis would preach sermons on the subject of Brotherhood Day on Sat- urday, February 20, while clergymen would speak on this theme in churches on Sunday, February 21.
