 Replacing them on Monday will be August Rinaldi as payroll clerk, and Frank Larry" Doyle as auditor.
 Additional dismissals of Republi- can-appointed employees of the con- troller's office are expected within the next wek. One of those slated to go is Alderman Thomas Bane. AL ready dismissed has been Charles C. Foster, purchasing agent, while James P. Purcell, accountant, re- signed.
 MT. Sweeney was appointed con- troller following the death of Con- troller Sherwood L. Rowland. Last year, MT.

Purcell.
 MT. Purcell was replaced by John J. Ciko, of Carteret, New Jersey, a certified public accountant and a registered municipal accountant.

Dialogue Mass Read,
 Hymns Being Omitted
Fordham Worshipers Say Latin in Unison in Pews;
 New Type of Service Being Encouraged

drawn up in a day when ahe mass goer was supposed to be mute and silent spectator" but he de- tended the dialogue mass as no less orthodox, pointing out that the priests role was unchanged.
 Father Ellard said that the rapid spread of the dialogue mass through Belgium, France and the American Midwest was a sign of a strong spiritual movement among the laity seeking closer participation with the priest in the chief Catholic rite. He said it was being encouraged be- cause, with the mass the only ac- tivity, all Catholics share in con- mon, united action there was a necessary first step toward the soli- darity Catholics need in the face of present events. Priests, nuns, and laymen were urged to spread the word of the neW-type mass in their home parishes, getting it adopted wherever possible.
 About one thousand persons at- tended the first days sessions of the school. Five regular courses and twenty-five electives on such sub- jects as the means of running con- sumers co-operatives and credit unions, and on contemporary Cath olic questions. The same series of courses were offered at Denver San Antonio and Washington earl fer in the summer by the same staff of sixteen teachers and will be re- peated in Chicago before the season ends. The wandering school began functioning in the midwest eight years ago and has continued each summer.

Christ. Science
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICES

Sunday, August 27.
 CHRIST JESUS" will be the subject of the Lesson Sermon.
 The Golden Text is from John 1:14: "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we be- held this glory, the gloryr as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth"
 Readings from the Bible include the following: And the child grew. and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him And he said un- to them. How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about by Fathers business?" Guke 2:4O, 49).
 Selections from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following from page 3l5: 26-2: "The history of Jesus shows him to have been more spiritual than all other earthly personalities. Wearing in part Q human form (that is, as 4 seemed to mortal view). being con. ceived by a human mother, Jesus was the mediator between Spirit and flesh, between Truth and error. Fix. plaining and demonstrating the way of divine Science. he became the way of salvation to oil who accepted his word"

New York, Aug. 26-The "dia- logue mass" a recently developed type of Catholic mass which has been adopted in more than thousand Mid-Western Catholic centers, was demonstrated at Fordham univer- sity recently as one of the principle proposals of the Summer School of Catholic Action.
 The sponsors of the new mass said that they expected it to be a chief force in uniting Catholics into a strong single force. They said that it had flourished through the Mid West after being imported from Bel gium, where it is now obligatory in all Catholic schools, seminaries and houses for religious, and France where one-thir of the parish churches have adopted it.
 The dialogue mass, as demon- strated at 8:30 a. m., in the Fordham university church on the campus, presented a striking contrast to the mass usually seen in a Catholic church. All hymns were omitted 1lboICdNl, CdSll EJCl loOAA III eliO SAAAA SAA read aloud in his pew, in unison the Latin of the mass, following it step by step with the priest, and reading out all the responses usually murmured in the chancel by the alter boys.
 The Rev. Gerald Ellard, Jesuit, of St. Mary's College, St. Mary's Kan, co-author of a guide manual on the dialogue mass, led the 400 worshipers in the church in the un- familiar task of reading the Latin aloud. For all the men in the church who had not been altar boys or members of choirs that sang at high masses, and for all the women who had not been choir members, except those who had attended dia- logue masses before, it was the first time they had ever joined in the public recitation of the ritual of the mass. Usually the Catholic at mass follows the ritual by reading his missal or reciting private prayers.
 Father Ellard pointed out in a lecture later that the Baltimore Cathechism, the basic manual of the Catholic religious in this country, ig- nores the possibility of dialogue mass. He said the manual was

 Be not afraid of (them)." Thou therefore gird up thy loins and arise, and speak unto them all that l command thee; be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee be- fore them. For, behold, have made thee this day defenced city, and an iron pillar and brazen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land. And they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee; for am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee" ."--Jer. 1:l7-19
