September 5. On Sunday last the Very Rev. Father Clune, C.SS.R., brought to a close a week's missionr Despite the long distances which most of the people had to drive, there were crowded congregations at the Masses and evening devotions during the week. A noticeable feature of the mission was the large number of non-Catholics who attended the various services. Large numbers approached the Holy Table at early Mass, each morning, and by the time the mission" was ended practically every one in the parish had fulfilled their duty in that respect. On Sunday morning a number of boys and girls, who had been receiving instruction during the week, made their First Communion. Very Rev. Father Clune is conducting a mission^ at Pahiatua this week.
