Without help from parents or grown-ups, he cannot feed, clothe, protect or even teach himself. All have noted that little children are deeply and instinctively conscious of their weakness. They have no desire to stand by themselves; they seek love, protection and care. Because children are so utterly help­ less, so naturally inclined to turn to others, it follows that they are quite ready to believe others. The explana­ tions of father and mother, the les­ sons of the teacher will usually be re- 1 ceived. without doubt or hesitation. Our Lord’s meaning is therefore clear enough, He is warning that every , soul must approach God as a little ■ child faces life. In the presence of the eternal God all men are as noth­ ing; without His grace they cannot do His will- The sad and fatal dif­ ference between child and man is that the child knows and admits his help- ; lessness; the man may not. The ul- ; timate Christian virtues, by which we are rescued from our pride, our doubts and fears, are the virtues of the child—humility, faith and trust. Dr. Durand concluded his remarks with "of this group of little boys and girls who, today, for the first time are to receive their Lord in Holy Communion, there is not a single one who feels no need of Him; nor who doubts His real presence in the sacra­ ment, or hesitates over His promises. They are sure of Christ and of His Word. For the rest of us it is a simple and practical truth that, un­ less we receive our Lord in the same way, we had better not receive Him at all. There is no vice, no trial, no af­ fliction which cannot be conquered if we will bring it to Christ as a child would do, admitting that it is far more than we can manage alone, entreating His help, and trusting that He will not fail us. That is His own secret of holiness: “Unless you become as little children, you cannot enter the King­ dom of Heaven.” First communicants were: Ruth Gib­ bons, Hennie DeYong, Mary DeYong, Eileen Volmer, Mary Ellen McPhail, Kathleen Hanna, Pauline Redman, Johnnie White, Michael Fleury, Fred­ die Bell, Wilfred Caskanette, Douglas Rogers and Marvin Skinn.

R. Durand, parish priest. Rev. A. J. Durand, Ph.D., of St. Peter’s Seminary, London, addressed the candidates. In his remarks he stated that when Christ warned, “Un­ less you become as little children, you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven,” it might be thought that it was the innocence of these little souls which He had in mind. It is indeed true that they are far more innocent than those who have reached maturity, and their innocence does make them near to God, but the truth which Our Lord intended to teach is far more pro­ found and more practical.
