Communion Celebrated
Bev. Doctor O'Neil, Principal of
Huron College, was the celebrant at
the service of Holy .0ommunion in
Trinity •Church en Sunday. For the
text of a most 'inspiring semen he
based his 'remarks en "And than shalt
be •secure because there is hope" -'-
Job IC verse 18. Dr. O'Neil said in
effect "One of man'sgreatest needs
and desires is security Without a
sense of security, man finds little
peace of mind and contentment" He
traced' life from 'childhood to manhood
showing where during the four stages
of development, the individual found
his security. The little child finds
security in his parents without them
the child is helpless. In later child-
hood the child depends not only 071
his parents but also on his playmates
and new acquaintances Clod also at
tliis time 'comes to mean something
to libels In -adolescence the individual
comes to find security in himself os:
herself. The fourth stage in develop-
ment is Education and later securing
employment. The life which leaves
out the true God is compared to the
Israelites who from time to time set
up false gods •or images which they
worship and in which they try to
find security. Individuals have *often
set themselves up es gods but have
come to find little security in that.
He cited the Beveridge plan intro-
duced in Eliglancl to bring people a
sense of security, but ie legislation
failed to work because it left out
God. Man has never been able to get
along well without God because in
God only is there hope. Man may
have all the physical needs of the
body, but without his spiritual meed
being satisfied too there is no com-
plete happiness. True .happiness
comes when the individual finds him-
self secure in God.
