KENDAL A lot of rain fell on Saturday June 29th washing out all the ball competition planned in Kendal and soaking several fields of baled hay. However, it will do a great deal of good. There should be a fine crop of -aspberries, peas, etc. The church attendance was small on Sunday perhaps because of the holiday week- end and also because Mr. M. Wagar and his class of boys were away to camp. Rev. G. Montgomery told the children a story about the longest psalm in the Bible with it's 176 verses. He asked the adults to read the 119 psalm when they went home. He said it contained n.many beautiful verses like the 105 verse. "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path." The subject of his sermon was, "What makes a nation great?" He emphasized (1) the right to be different (2) the courage to experiment and most important of all: its faith in spiritual values. Our an- cestors believed that "man does not live by bread alone." Our roots must be buried deeply in Christain principles. Communion service was cele- brated and Mr. and Mrs. Allen Foster united with Kendal church by a transfer of membership. Among the vis- itors at the service were Mrs. A. Cowie sister of mrs. I. Marlott and Mr. and Mrs. Skerratt of Toronto. He is a brother of Mr. D.H. Skerratt, Next Sunday morning the Kendal Service will be at 9 a.m. The nine a.m. service will be held for the four Sundays in July. August is holiday month for our minister.
