In_this connection he rBundly scored the low-necked dresses and the short skirts of tQ- day. These, he said, were the cause of much of the immorality of the present day. He advised the female | members of the congregation against wearing such 'apparel, and said that nobody thus attired was permitted to approach the communion rail in St. Mary's Cathedral, His Grace also referred to the evils of the liquor traffic and empha- | sized the virtues of temperance.
