Knox, of Trivitt Mem­ orial Church, used the poem, “The Cattle Thief”, to illustrate the need of following up prayers with works and with kindness and understanding of people’s needs. She stressed how import­ ant it was to follow the convic­ tions of their own particular faith and not to be critical of other church denominations, es­ pecially when too often they know nothing whatever about them. Young people should have speakers from different churches tell why they belong to that par­ ticular church and in so doing they become more tolerant of each other and thus become bet­ ter Christians.

Norman D, Knox, rector of Trivitt Memorial Church, spoke to James St. Association on “The of England” at their Thursday afternoon. Rev. Knox went to invitation last summer, to preach about the Church of England in Canada. During his stay there, he visited all the large cathedrals. A visit to St. Mary’s Parish Church in Shropshire where he was christened, was an interest­ ing part of his tour. Of particular interest was Can­ terbury Cathedral which was built in 597. In 1067 it was burned to the ground and was rebuilt in 1'07 2. A continuous service goes on from sunrise to sunset in this cathedral. A mus­ eum contains a cabinet of coins .

The cathedral at Liverpool which was started 25 years ago and will be completed in 40 or 50 years, will be the fifth largest in Europe. » In conclusion Rev.
