DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, THURSDAY, MARCH 15, 1923.

FINE SERMON FOR TONIGHT One of Most Important Sermons of Mission at St. Mary’s Church (in> oi the most important and •In ! structlvn of the series of, splendid sermons being delivered by the Franciscnik .Mlnslonnrles during the mission nt the st. Mary's Cutholl, church will be delivered tonight by Father Daniel, who will give an Ttble land intelligent explanation of the Blessed Sacrament anil the Holy , Sacrifice of the mass. To Catholics, the discussion of these two subjects are paramount, their religious belief being bused on the institution of the mass by Christ at the Last Supper, and those privileged to hear the ser i mon this evening will avail themselves of the opportunity to attend ■ the services. The services will com- , tnenco at 7:30, and previous to th. j | sermon, the chanting of the rosary I will take place, followed by benadle lion of the Blessed Sacrament. The mission services have been in progress nt the St. Mary's church since Sunday: this week being for the women of the parish. The mis sion for the men will open Sunday evening at the evening services and Will continue until the next Sunday. The services have been well attend ed. Last evening Father Daniel d livered a sermon to the young unmarried women of the parish, his subject being: "The Dutieji of a Young lauly to Herself, to Cod. ar.d to Her Parents." Father Daniel has a splendid way of expressing beautiful and holy thoughts and his sermon last evening was rich in both instructive and spiritual meaning. Father Daniel, in commencing his sermon, dwelt on the duties of a young lady to Cod. stating her duties us a Catholic girl consisted in prayer and frequent reception of the sacra ments confession and Holy Communion. In defining her duties towards her parents, the Missionary slated, “many young ladles refuse obedience and respect to their parents and yet they know that find commanded. "Honor thy father and mother.” Al ter your good patents are dead and gone you will appreciate what they have done for you. Bring them flowers now before they are dead and bring sunshine into your homes.” Speaking on the duties of a young lady to hers-If. Father Daniel stated “every young lady should preserve the. great treasure Cod gave her namely: her holy purity. Heme avoid sinful companions and evil amusements. Each one of you has a vocation: pray that Cod may make known to you in what station of life He desires that you serve Him. The most of you will enter the married

state; heme, since marriage in th> Catholic church is very sacred and since there is no divorce in om church, pray frequently that God may assist you in the choice of a life-partner. When seeking a husband, look first for the true qualities, namely: uprightness, j honesty, virtue* purity and above all. a Catholic girl should marry a good staunch practical Catholic young man. Observe your duties to God, to your parents and to yourself and you will obtain the maximum of happiness in this life, and above all. you will obtain celestial bliss in the life to come." Only Two More Sermons With the exception of tonight, only two more sermons will be delivered by the Missionaries to the women of the congregation. On Friday evening. Father Andrew will talk on the j "Mercy of God" and on Saturday evening, Father Daniel will speak on | "Mary, our Mother.” The religious | instructions following the 5:30 mass in the mornings and the sermons at- ] ter the 8:15 mass will also be con 'tinned throughout the week. Hunting Means to Pick State H. S. (irid Champs Anderson, Ind.. March 15.—A. L. Trestet, ]>ermanent secretary of the Indiana High School Athletic Association, is trying to evolve some method [to determine the champion high school ] football team in Indiana, but he is about to give up the task. One plan considered would bo to arrange st vi ral conferences of groups to decide the champions of such groups and then match them with other districts, much after the district, regional and state tournaments for basketball. Mr. Trester has virtually decided that football, tournaments can not be arranged like basketball and some other means will be necessary if it is ever settled just what high school in Indiana has the best football team. Anderson High school has decided to go in for football again after being out of the game several seasons.
