j r brooke and h pierce the remains were interred in greenwood cemetery there were many beautiful floral tributes a boys band due to the great interest shown in music by the boys of oeorgetown the band committee has felt for some time that they should if possible organise a boys band music especially instrumental mittpc has been looked upon as something for older people only but if made available there are very few people who will not become interested m group music most people have in the past taken up instnanental music as an accomplishment fad or for per sonal enjoyment this has been done individually and the incentive given by the group work has been lacking causing most of those who started in music to drop it due to lack of in terest and the natural inference of those wtoo looked on was that it was a very difficult undertaking and there fore a thing to be looked at ftjdraiwe those who had in trie past studied for a few years taken up some of the famous authors studied abroad and at last graduated were looked upon as an elect few and of course this sort of thing was far beyond the reach of the average person due to these things it has taken a long time or the people to discover that music is for everytwdty and a necessary part of a complete education and a well ground ed view of life and its problems when the serious work of making a living after graduation is entered the young people of the school can find no better tratnung than that provided by participation in a musical organisation headed by a competent director it develops team work and the success of a nation depends on the team work of its cltlsens arrangements have been made with a british musk house whereby in struments may be purchased on such reasonable terms that every boy in oeorgetown will

sunday and monday last when the rector rev fred h wase was assisted in the services by rev a b higrglnson ma a former rector of st georges who preached at the morning service and rev w a henderson ka of christs cruirch cathedral hamilton who preached in the evening there were large congregations at both services and the splendid ser mons delivered by the visiting clergy men were an inspiration and joy to all who heard them at the morning service rev mr hagglnson after reading the lesson from the 6th chapter of st paul com mencing at tbe 10th verse chose as his text the 41st verse of the 6th chapter of st matthew via and whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile go with rum twain the speaker said in part in the olden days the law of revenge was in vogue cen- turies later moses brought in a dew law an eye for an eye and a toonh for a tooth which was some improve ment but the law which jesus brought was that of mercy and for giveness he taught men a nobler way than that of revenge if ye for give those who wrong you jesus will forgive you there are two things which move men to do right duty and love if men only go to church and worship ood because we feel it our duty we are only one mile chris tians if wc worship because we love god we are two mile christians there is a motive higher than the mere fact of duty love for gods name and to do his work there are cer tain duties where love is not a motive such as a judge condemning a crimi nal or a father punlshmg a disobedi ent child but when we are doing things for ood it should be out of love and not duty jesus loves us and he wants us to serve btka not be cause we feel it our duty but because we love him in return for his great love for as you nave one of the most beautiful churches in the cuocese early anglicans erected tbds splendid church not through a sense of duty but the sacrifice they made indicates they built because of the love of ood in their hearts and not merely dutay there are many of you whose dear ones loved tills church in the past and you love it too may you ever keep in your hearts that love for christ which is a motive power that duty never could equal if there was more love in life there would be fewer discouragements and a happier ufe for all letusnaake love our motive in all walks of life burdens will be lightened hard tasks made easier and spiritual enlightenment prevail love is the greatest thing in heaven or earth let us try and be two mile christians living under the law of christ at the evensong at 7oclock the special preacher was the rev w a henderson of christ church cathedral hamlton he took for his text the 15th verse of the 3 chapter of exeklel then i came to them of the capti vity at telabeb that dwelt by the river of chebbar and i sat where they sat and remained there astoni shed among them mr henderson said in part one must haye an imagination to be able to understand other peoples point of view for as our own experiences in life are limited we must be able to imagine what ottoer people feel otherwise we would be unable to offer any kind of sympathy that would express what we would like to say but we must learn to control our imagination the speaker used several parables ouv of the bible to illustrate his subject he also said that the auctual facts had not alter ed but our own point of view the world is ready to condemn anyone on the least offence but no one will ever know how many times that same per son resisted and surjcessfully con quered temptation none of us are so free from sin that we would be justified in pointing the finger of scorn iff we were absolutely tree fromysln we would be uke christ who never condemned but immediately went to guide and support those who had fallen the special music by the choir and organ voluntaries were features that added much to the enjoyment of the servloea the musical service on monday evening by the fun choir of christs church cathedral hamilton was very largely attendred the
