Gathering Held in Seaforth.
The 18th Diocesan Eucharistic Con-
gress of the London Diocese held °u
.
Si.'Jellies' te ,RCathalic Church on Wed-
nesday, September 25th, was a notable
event in the history of the congrega-
tion and one long to be remembered
by the people of the parish. This aneet-
ing was of special interest not only
from the standpoint of a great religi-
ous gathering, but also because it
marked the jubilee year of the pastor
Rev. Edward F. Goetz, one Of the
most active and progressive priests in
the Diocese and celebrated his twenty-
fifth year in the priesthood,
'A season of confessions an the
church Tuesday evening was 'a fit-
ting prelude for• the program, which
opened with low masses and holy
communion, beginning at 5,30 a.m.
This was followed b
Y low mass and
holy communion for the children who
were present and received the sacra-
ment, the service of which' was most
impressive and the children reciting
with the priest the Judiea Susipiot
Sanctus and the Agnes Dei.
Long before the hour set for the
high mass in the open air, people
began to pour into town from all
directions and by 10.30 o'cldck a large
concourse of 'people assembled in
the grounds to the north of the
church, where an altar draped with
the papal colors and decorated with
red roses, the Union Jack and the
banners of .the various organizations
had been erected on a paltform cover-
ed with bright green artificial grass,
the surroundings making a 'beautiful
setting for .the imposing ceremony.
Rev. Dennis O'Connor, vioar-gen-
eral of the Diocese of London, of-
ficiated, Rev. Gregory F. Blonde, of
East Windsor, being deacon of the
mass and Rev. James A. 'Macksey, of
Chatham, sub -deacon. The service
opened with a beautiful rendering
of Pauge Lingua by the seminarians
of St, Peter's Seminary, London, ac-
companied by C. Barrie, organist at
St. Peter's Cathedral. Bishop Fallon
was present and addressed the congre-
gation. Rev, Thomas J. McCarthy, of
Sarnia, who was the speaker of the
clay, outlined the Roman. Catholic doc-
trine of the blessed eucharist, in honor
of which the congress was held. As-
sistants to the bishop were Revs.
Thomas P. Hussey, of Kinkora and
James C. Kelly, of London.
An inspiring solo was contributed
during u ung the offertory by Frank Al-
len of St. Marys, the organist, Mrs.
Margaret Devereaux, acting as ac-
companist. Mr. Allen also sang in
the evening.
At noon the procession of the
blessed sacrament wended its way
from the specially prepared altar of
the congress north of the highway,
then west to Victoria street, turning
south along to Victoria street, turn-
ing south along this street and mak-
ing the first pause at the residence of
Joseph McMillan, where during a
brief interval the first benediction was
imparted to all .present. The streets
along the route and the parochial re-
sidence were nicely decorated with
flags, which along with the cardinal
robes of the church dignitaries, added
color to an imposing spectacle. The
procession also paused at the resid-
ence of W. J. Duncan, where the sec-
ond benediction was given.
Seminary Choir.
The procession opened with the
cross bearer accompanied by two ac-
olytes, the schoolboys preceded by
their banner, the schoolgirls follow-
ing their banner, then came the cross
bearer of the clergy accompanied by
his two acolytes, the seminarian choir
of St. Peter's Seminary, London, the
Clergy of the diocese and some from
Detroit, there being more clergy in at-
tendance than any of the recent con-
gresses. Then ,came the torch bearers,
dressed in white cassocks, the Knights
of Columbus also being to the line of

ied by Father G. Blonde as deacon

EyesToday of
S'even'ty people out of every one hun-
dred have defective eyesight. And this
is NOT because eyes are being made
"poorer" than they were in. grand-
father's day either.
Our present mode of living, with con-
fining work, insufficient exercise and
too many hours spent with artificial
lights throws a load on the eyes which
he were y were never intended to carry. As
a result, mare and more people need
the comforting help of glasses for eyes
which' have ve been

Do not put off giving your eyes the at-

ELECTION TOPICS.
There was a mild Rutter during the
week over a boy who had been gath-
ering empty whiskey bottles, alleged
to have been found along the high-
ways, and who turned out •to be a
grandson of Hon. Mr. Lethbridge,
Progressive Leader. Huron has
become remarkably 'free from "emp-
ties" of recent years. There
is a sheltered lane -way near Alain
street in Seaforth in which a few
years ago there were always freshly
emptied whiskey bottles lying around,
and sometimes evidences of disgust-
ing debauches. Today and for many
hundreds of days there has not been a
bottle thrown in this spot. The neigh-
bors have been grateful for the re-
moval of this nuisance by the Control
Act.
