'HOLY NAME RALLY "
On Sunday afternoon there was a
rally of the Holy Notes Society of
.this district in Clinton, members be
ing',present from the pari hes olhDub-
lin, Seaforth, St. Coltunban, Logan
'and'Clinton, - It was estimated that
about six hundred men. and boys were
present,. I
The .parade formed at Recreation
Park: and marched up through the
town, leaded by the Clinton. Kiltie
Band' in full uniform,
,r+,.our young cadets in uniform car-
•vied the flag, just; immediately fol-
lowing the band, and as the ;process

After this -carne Mayor Jackson,
Cola • Conibe, Col. Rance and the
priests, Rev. Fathers White of Dube
lin, Goetz of Seafortli,'Danzer,of St.
Colunsban, Kelly of Logan; Gaffney'
of Cfinton-and''Father Mahoney, Pro-
fessor of Scripture at St. Peter';
Seminary Loi]don, who was the prea-
cher of the day. •
'Extra seats ` were placeid in St.-
Joseph's . church, making as much
room as ,possible to -accommodate the
Crowd, but even then it , was not
possible to take in all who wished to
be present at the, service. The church
was filled with the men of the So-
eiety,'th'e choir occupied the gallery,
and the aforementioned priests each
,tool, some, part in the service.
The Rev, leather Mahoney preach-
ed giving a moatilnpressive and prac-
tical address, *which : was listened to
with the closesttatteption by the great
congregation: of.nlen and boys, He
took for his text -the words of Jesus;
"Not every one who saith to me Lord,'
Load, shall enter into•the Kingdom of
4Tieavet but hien that doeth..the will of
my Father who is in Reaves." Fa=
they Mahoney.` said there. were two,
things necessary for. the -Christian,
.faith and „works. A man must 'be-
lieve to' be saved and without faith
it is impossible' to please God. • But
then.he must act ore that faith; faith.
is a dead thing unlessit .produces
works. Good won;ke indicate a
Christian. •God's weeks, in creation
and Isis ` providences; indieate ' His
goodness. Christ's life find death
proved His love, Jesus, did Works
which no ons else doted do; it was this'
which brought Hint•to-earth. Jesus,
said: "The tree that bringeth not
forth good fruit is hewn down and
cast into the fire," and "By "their
fruits,.• ye shall; know . theme' - The
Christian life, is net a theory; it is
living a life. , +^x --
The greatest enemy Christ has is
the .t npraetical +Christian,' Father• Ma-:
honey:,satd The man who does not
live ,accordingi to his belief is a trai-
tor to his God. There may not be
any compromise in the things of
,Christ;; We must "render unto Cae-
ser the things that be Caeser's end
unto God the things -which be God's."
Gather• Mahoney saidthat he must
confine himself to Catholics 10 this
talk but• that what he was saying wee.
equally applicable to all Christians. •
There are no "Liberal Catholics" he.
,said. Some were very lax in their
'living and yet were readyeto fight for
their Church. He said. the Church
did not need pugilistic members,
What the Church needed were nien
who lived their faith, who were a
moral force.. There are those who
deny their faith by their works, Al-
though they may ,go to church And
partake of the ,Sacraments.: The
,watchword should
be "nem- Ca_
tholicitv." ,
lie spoke op the: organization of
the Holy 'Nam.e- Society. , It was
•net.a•show of force, he said, it was a
- purely feligious organization, it had
no other object than a profession o
the belief in the Divinity of Christ
and the desire for the extension of
,His •I(.isgdoen. The three -fold fruit'
would-obe, Prayer, Attentlhnce on the
Sacraments and Living out our
Faith:: Ts was needful to possess
this .belief• in the Divinity. of Christ;
it was lbeing questioned in some quar-
ters, and this demonstration today
was a profession in the belief that
Christ was God. There is only one
name, that of Jesus, whereby we,may
be saved,,and it was in honour of that
name that this society was formed,
A inenmher of the FlolyName Society
refuses to profane the name of Christ;
he avoids telling the foul story, he'
keeps this life pure. 13e said it was
possible for every man to live a pure
.life and ,that his hearers wore under
obligation, to aiin to live purely. They_
must avoid occasions of sin;' they
'must keep the ;Sabbath.. He urged
t
them e , to remember that the ,Sabbath
was twenty-four hours long arid said.
there -;?vas- need to 'keep from doing
questionable things on the- Sabbath
D ty. He .urged them to, go" to con-
fession'as often as it Was- necessary
and to -partake of the Holy, Cowman4

upon them the need of prayer and,of
observing the ` conditions ''of prayer .
,He recalled to them that •-this waft
