THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1940 PAGE FiV Deep Summer Slowly, over the far blue hills, The white clouds drift; And I lie in the cool. green shade, While the sunbeams sift Through the wide elm-tree boughs. A wood-thrush trills from a cherry bower A song of love; And far in a shadowed woodland glade A mourning dove Murmers of summer peace. In the quiet fieids, beneatn the Comes faith again, I know that God in His own good time-- Past grief and pain-- Will give to the earth His peace. --Mary C. Raby.

R.| Mu the Department | of Social ce E gelisr | of the United Church, on Thu first of series of addresses on the subject ' tian Idea of Society," at the mer School of Missions in Whitby. The speaker traced three differ- ent eras in the growth of Christian society, dwelling particularly on the era throughout the last 150 years. Mission work has expanded, and just recently the Moderator of the United Church made the state ment that the churches are draw- together when nations are drawing apart. During this era many notable changes have taken place the greater free- dom of nations, of the press, and | a marked development has occurred in the free churches of the British Isles, in Ireland and especially in the . United church This is a war for the saving of civilization and it must be realized that the thing for which we strug- gle now, must be guided by the teachings and inspirations of the messages of Jesus. No system, how- ever, can be made equal to the Kingdom of God, but the democra- tic system is better than any other earthly one, and before the Europ ean house can be put in order each person must strive to put his own | individual house in order, before God's Kingdom can be established on earth. gave the ing C.G.LT.

MYERS, Ph.D. From British Columbia, came this: "Dear Dr. Myers: 1 have been going to write you again for over two years, ... I wrote you regard- ing my youngest daughter, then 22 years old, who, after an {illnees, had to be sent to a mental home. Your letter to me and later an ar- ticle helped me 'carry on' in very trying circumstances, . . . I blamed myself as one is hound to do but perhaps as you say, 'We, parents are often too hard on ourselves.' Now that my daughter seems whol- ly recovered and leading a healthy normal life, I feel that I may have done a few things well and that her background and our influence for her good and happiness has helped to bring this about. . . . A Tharkful Heart "As I look back over the New year's holiday I do so with a thank- ful heart and proud of my children and wonder what I have done to deserve them. . . . We sometimes clash, as all mothers and children do, but at least they see reasons. They have decided views on many things, but as far as possible I try to respect them. . . | "Their religion for the first part was taught by me reading Bible Stories (Hulbert's Story of the Bible, by Jesse Lyman Hulbert). I agree with you reading good books to children has a great educational value. Later education, although very good, may go to their heads instead of their hearts and induce personal selfishness. Religion--heing English Church. I saw that all four were brought up in this faith. After confirma- tion I let them go their way, never making them go to church for 'my sake' or saying they 'must'. My boy in the 'flower of man d answered his country's call and now in training. Before leaving h sald, 'Mum, I have a date with you tomorrow morning at 7 o'clock, Holy Communion.' Could a leave-taking} be finer? The memory of tha morning in church beside my bo will remain with me always!" This mother, Mrs. Beatrice Saun. ders, closes her letter with one of, her poems she permits me to print: "THE DESIGNER" Days go by when we never Question why, Then events begin to move more swiftly! The design of life is changed From rosy red, to black despair. The Designed works out a plan Piece by piece If we leave life in his hands! The black, the grey, the mauve Then gold, back to rosy red, Then we know the answer To life's story Our minds made up to do our share! The design is there If we place the pieces carefully. Solving Parent Problems Q. My daughter four years old sleeps till 7:30 every morning, and we get up at about 7. But on Sun- days and holidays we like to sleep longer, though she insists on rising then at 7:30 2s usual. A. Don't expect a young child to sleep any longer on Sunday morn- ing or a holiday than on any other day. She is a creature of habit. Provide this child with toys then and show her how she can, on wak- ing, amuse herself without annoy= ing other members of the family.
