The first game was played last night Wednesday. The schedule is being released this week and will appear in next week's issue. By MRS. J. Sunday at the Holy Communion Service, Rev. R. A. Carson preached on the theme "What Mothers Want Most." l first, said Mr. Carson, a mother wants a husband who is still courting her, who is a whole husband, not half hearted, Secondly, a mother wants a home that is a good place to live. and thirdly, a mother wants her children to have good training, Expanding these points Rev, Carson quoted the Book of Proverbs, "She openeth her mouth with wisdom." He said children expect this of their Mothers. They don't want the `Mother — knows best' type of authority. Also in Proverbs it says: "the law of kindness is in her tongue." The mouth is for healing, not blistering, Mr. Carson said. He concluded by quoting from Philippians 4:8 which tells u8 to look for the best in each other. The Christian principle of "growing in grace Means growing in graciousness, Whether parent or child, husband or wife, the individual looks to others with wistful longing and the unspoken plea. "please see the best in me, Faults I know I have, but please see the good." Whit Sunday is also Commonwealth Sunday. It is a time to remember the foundation of the Church and to H. PATON pray for the unification of the Christian Church. Morning Prayer and Sunday School will be held in St. James Anglican Church at 9:45 a.m. This is the first, at the summer hour of service. June 28, July 5, and July 12 the Anglican Church will be closed and the congregation will attend the United Church. The United Church will attend the Anglican Church July 19, 26 and August 2, 9, 16.
