We have before us an anonymous com-
Taaticatior, signed by "One of the l'..n-
gregatten" of Rt. 1ie.•r.1es's church. asking
tie why we (*Jed t.. publish a full de-
scription of the l'htutmu services at St.
(Georges cherch, when at the Gagne time
we gave psrticmlars,uf the service at the
Boman Catholic church.
In answer to the foregoing, we would
tray that we were not present at the Ser-
vices on Christmas day. We hare since
learned that they were sof a particularly
interesting nature, the discourse and the
somal portion being of s high order.
None of those present. bowerer, saw fit
to send us a repeat of the proceedings,
and this accounts f••r the absence of re-
ference in the columns of Tax Sh;NAL.
We were not present at the R. C. church
on Christmas day, tut one of our corres-
pondents kindly furnished us with the
stem which we pablt►hed. If in the time

publish it. We would prefer to receive
news items from our lady c.•rrespou-
dents rather than be brought to book
afterward by an anonymous corres'.,un-
dent.
We have answered the annn'rm.rus
letter thus fully, simply became it was
written by a lady who e.g. perhaps un-
sequainted with the working of a news-
paper office. 11 an anonymous corres-
pondence had been received from a male
writer en this or any other subject, wa
would have quietly relegated it to the
waste basket.
But there is another point t•. which we
would draw attention. *kir fair anonym
mous correspondent is evidently of "pin -
'•r --7i ion that newspaper reporters should
have fur their chief aim the writing up of
church notes. This is a popular error.
It is quite true that on special •.evasion
A_ 0 amsiderable prominence is given 10 re-
ligious matters, as, for instance. when a
short taus ago Tur Sweet. devoted some
three columns to the -Visit of Bishop

and when necessity arises. gives a fair
account of all important religious d g•

we ay this, we must also be allowed to
ay that we are the best qualified to
know what religious items are most im-
portant to publish ni THE `I..71AL
Whenever we believe cur readers would
be edified and instructed by the publica-
tion of a sermon or discourse we will
take the trouble to have a reporter pres-
ent, and on such an occasion will not fail
to have a rood report of the same pfe-
sented to them. But if we were to give
a full report weekly of the tenuous it
any particular church, we very
Iesy t!!st there would soon be a falling
off in the attendance at that church.
