At the evening service Canon Quinton War­ ner, of London, was the speaker and delivered a very excellent sermon taking for his text “Where are the Nine?” Of the ten lepers who were cleansed only one returned to give thanks. Leprosy is a symbol of sin. The works of the flesh keep us from the kingdom of God. Nine out of ten may be members of a church and only one genuinely interested in furthering the cause. Christ wants followers who are active in making his life and ideals known. We are healed, helped and encour­ aged under Christion civilization but how many appreciate these privileges which- were gained for us by others who laid down their lives. We express our appreciation by playing the hours of the Sabbath; away, The work* of the church is the transforming of lives after the pat­ tern of Jesus Christ.
