Mr. and MrS. ,John Reynolds of
town acted as sponsers.
Before the sacrament of Confirm-
ation was administered His Lordship
examined the children, He asked a
little child to make the sign el the
cross, -which he did. This reminds
U1 of the principal mysteries of re-
ligion wilch aye the Unity and Trin-
ity of God, Incarnation, Death and
Resurrection of our Saviour.
Bishop Fallon remarked to the
people. "It matters not to me what is
said in a non -catholic church, prov-
ided it is kept within the walls' ofthe
church. But when a minister denies
the Divinity of Christ from his pulpit
add it reaches my' people, through
the. press, then I protest, and I will ask
the smallest boy to prove the Div-
inity of Christ," Questioning a boy of
ten years of age on the Divinity of
Christ the. boy Said "Jesus Christ is
True God and True Man," The child
continued The Person whose birth
was announeed by the Archangel Gab-
riel, who was'born of a' 'Virgin Christ_
mas Day in a stable at Bethlhem, who
lived thirty-three years on earth, who
was crucified and died on Good Fri-
day and arose from the dead ancl'
aseended into Heaven, Ascension
Thursday wes` true God and, true
Man. •
111. Because the Prophets said so,
2nd. Because.Gotl the Father said so.
3rd. Becanse Jesus Christ said so.
411). Because the Apostles said so.
5th Because the Catholic church said
so." •
The little boy took up the first proof
and said beeause Jereinias Said 'God
will come and save us.' Islas
Said, 'He would be born of a vir-
gin,' others foretold the time of his
coming, the place of his bittlf, of His
life, death and resureetion. The
seeond proof: God the „Father
said so" -When our Lord was being
baptized•in 'the Jordon a voice from
Heaven- was, heard- saying "This is
my Belayed Son in .who I am well
pleased, Hear ye Him." The third
proof ',Gad the Son said 'so" --and he
worked miracles to prove it, "and Al-
mighty Gott being R. just God could
Mot confirm a.lie by a reinaele ler if
,God is not just He iS not perfect and
if He is not perfect. He is not God."
"One time when Jesus was teach-
ing in a house tliey brought to him
a sick man and the ,house was so
crowded that they took him down
through the roof, and When our Lord
saw he eaid 'Be of good heart, son
thy sans are -forgiven thee' and some
anurneerecl and .said who -can
forgive sins but God alone? and our
Lord said, 'which is easier for me,
to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee, or
to say to the,sick ntan arise and walk,
but that you may know that the son
o 1 man hath power on earth to for-
give'$lns, then said he to the sick
man 'ar'se' take up thy bed and go in,
to thy house,' and he arose took up
,his besleand went into his house."
The fourth proof "the epostles.saiciso
"In the sateenth chapter of St. lath-
e -les gospel from the 1.901 to the 191h
verse we read -When Jesus came
into the quarters'of Cesarea Philippi
'and He asked His 'disciples saying
Whom do -men say that the- Son of
Man is but they said some John the
Baptist and others some Elias and
others -Jeremias or one of the proph-
ets. Jesus saith -to them "hut whom do
you say 'that 3 arn?" Simon Peter
•anewered and said.: "Thou art Christ
the Son of the living God," and See-
lig answering -said to him" Blessed
Art thou, SiMon Bar-jona, because
flesh and ,blood hath not revealed it
to thee, but my Father -Who is in
Heaven, and I say, to thee that then
art Peter and upon this rock I will
build my chureh and the gates of Hell
Shall not prevail against' 11". ancl I
will give to thee, the keys of the
kingdosn of Heaven and whatsoever
thou shalt bind upon earth it Shall be,
bound also inlieuven and whatsover
thou shalt loose upon earth it shall
he loosed also in Ileayen." The fif-
th proof "The Catholic thurch said so"
--and in the,d6uncil 325 and 381 con-
demned those as lieretiee who denied
the Divinity of Chriet
- His Lordship seid that he confirm-
ed over twenty thousand children and
never heard a 'better recitation -from a
child ten .years of age and said". Will
some one Send thiS boy to New York
that he may prove to that ' minitter
the Divinity of Christ."
Ho turned to one of the girls and
asked which was the most necessary
sacrament, the little girl answered
"Baptism, because without it one can-
not enter the Kingdom of Heaven,
dwelt with Some length on the
baptism of blood kind mentioned the
Innocente as the first Martyre
referred to those in Russia being mar-
tyred for following the laW of God.

Rockerfeller, in, his late fifties, as to
prove that there is much similiatity
in the professor of astro-nhysics at
Toronto University and the petrolic
Croesus who golfs every week and
worships every Szinday. WbY is
Chant like Rockerteller? And why is
he unlike him?
Chant is like Rockerfeller 111,a
marvelous acquisitive capacity;. he is
unlike him in tlie character of his
acquisitions. The acquisitive passion
is in both ,only the American has

the Canadian has gone aften Millions

The good professor has no unqualif-
ied admiration for newspaper wri-
teA-in which he is very like new -
'paper writers -when they descant on
scientific subjects. When he --reads
an astronomical article in a daily
journal that tickles the ordinary read-

cover America. He has laid that
pleasure on a few occasions, arid hai

A white robin has been seen in

that itis -white, occasionally appears.
A couple svere shot here some years
.ago. But it is hoped that this one
will be allowed to live, to rear a
family and to return from year to
year, as robins are known to do. Look
out for -the robin with the white coat
