story of those years in a statement that

obtained permission to have it built at his

The present `chairman of the 'property
commit tee, deputy reeve Elmer Hayter of:
Stephen, who presided at 'the unveiling
ceremony, said: "This kl,uilding was ask -
for several times; there was considerable
discussion, as to whether or not it would
take away from the museum building. 1
am quite sure, as we see it 'here, today, it
adds to the beauty of the museum.”
.Visitors who witnessed the i eremony
may still wonder why, if the addition is to
the satisfaction of council, it allowed the
bill to be paid by the plan who spelt so

THE,, IOI,Y TRiNIT ,�
-B Rev. A. Vold uis xi i e.
Y Ia s int 4i
Church, Dungannon
It is true that the word Trin-
ity is nowhere to be found in
°the Bible. But it is even more
true that the Bible teaches us
that... _ Gad V
Three in One and One in Three;
Or to be more 'precise: God re-
veals Himself as such in His
Word, the Bible. It is in obed-
ie ce to that Word that the
Church confesses with the
Apostles Creed, "I believe in
God, the Father And in
Jesus Christ, His Son And
in the Holy Ghost."
There are voices today which
proclaim that this doctrine is
quite unintelligible and irrelev-
ant. As to the first, one is
bound to agree. The Church
father, Athanasius, who .com-
posed a .rather elaborate Creed
on this particular matter, did
not presume to have "licked
the problem," but chose for its
title the words "Form of faith
and confession." St. Paul, the
great apologist (defender) of
-the-.Gl stian--faith-spoke--of-ten-
and in various ways of "the
mystery of our religion." And
theoet Gellert 'wrote words
which all of us might well adapt
when it comes to the mysteries
of the faith,
"When I this wonder contem-
plate
My ,spirit doth in reverence
wait:
It worships 'as it vjews this
height—
The love of God ,is,iiinite."
This is confession, this 1S -Wor-
ship, because of, and In re-
sponse to, the mystery. Even
such, a simple (?) matter as the
Love of God must forever re,
main a. mystel;y to us
"I -know: ndt, why:Cod's-wonder-
. bus brace
To in 1e hath made knwr},.
:Nor why unworthy --,Christ in
' love
Redeemed me for His own.‘
I know not how this saving
faith
To me He did impart,
'Nor how believing. in His Word
Wrought peace • within my
heart.
But I know Whom I have b
lieved."
The doctrine of the Holy
Trinity is unintelligible. But
at the same time: a God ex-
plained and understood is no
God. Many a time I do not
understand myself; how shall I
understand Him? Yet,1 believe,
simply "Because the Bible tells
-lane---so-'------I•rls-1•ike-�a--t�read
of gold through the Book, and
I cannot get away from it. Each
time I witness Baptism I hear
the solomn words, "In the Name
of the Father and the Son and
the . Holy Spirit." And each
Sunday I pronoulce, pr hear
the words of the Benediction,
"The grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ, the love of God, and the
fellowship of the Holy Spirit
be with you all." Unintellig-

-Please- tell me-
why
gs
wy our friends and relatives
are doing their best to make
me feel like an object of pity.
Our oldest daughter is 21.
When I confided that I was ex-
pecting - a baby she gasped, "I
hope the change of life is play-
ing tricks and you're not really
pregnant. I woudn't know what
-to- tell 13cly friends."
My mother, Who is 64, said,
"What happened? Did you
drink too much at one of those

amazed that she would make
such a crude remark. - •
One friend groaned, "What a
rotten break at your age!" When
I said we were thrilled she look-
ed at me as if I was crazy and
replied, "Well, I certainly ad-
mire your courage for putting
on such a good act." .
What shall I say to these

Dear Ann Landers: Summer
is here and '1•' am hating.it. The'
reason—our swimming poolis
attracting folks we haven't seen
since last summer, when we put
in the 'Pool.
What can we do about the
clods who appear in bathing
-suits as if we invited them?
Their youngsters walk into our
home ana use our bathroom
and telephone. They open the
refrigerator - and help them-
selves to cold drinks and snacks,
Once upon a time only the
wealthy had pools. These peo-
ple also had servants and all
the trimmings. But things are
different today. We are people
of modest means, and we can't
furnish maid service and re-
freshments to the entire neigh-
borhood Furthermore we
built the pool for our own en-
joyment; and not as an accom-
modation for everyone who feels
like coming over.
Is there a solution to this
problem?-- STYMIED
Dear Sty: Yes. But i1• takes
nerve. 'hell the free -loaders that
the pool has become a problem
because too many people are
showing up uninvited. Sample:

a person who will take credit
for something she doesn't de-

close friends for many years
she must have some redeeming

and overlook her pathetic in-
