CHURCH INSURANCE

FOR years past many insurance policies covering church buildings have contained a provision that there should be no candles on

the altar and that no "incense braziers" (whatever they may be) should be ursed in the church. If this guarantee could not be given, a higher rate was charged. Protests have been made from time to time against this rule, which was felt to be unfair to the Anglican Church; for in our Church lights are only used during the time of service, when there is of course no danger of fire, as there is where votive lights are left burning more or less constantly.

Recently, however, the Canadian Fire Underwriters' Association has, amended its rules, allowing candles to be used during service time without any additional charge. ' This is a very satisfactory ruling, and quite meets our needs.

It would be well for churchwardens: to examine their policies, and if they contain the clause mentioned above to apply to the agents for an endorsement permitting the use of altar lights in . accordance with the new ruling. This has been done in the case of policie.s deposited for safekeeping in the Synod office.

W. A. MISSION STUDY

The topic selected for mi,ssion study this year by the W. A. is Japan. The price of the book on which the study is based is 25c, and there is a very excellent pamphlet called "Mission Study", price 5c, which gives an outline of the book and suggestions to those preparing papers. Books can be had from Mrs. Russell Penhor­wood, Diocesan J...Jiterature Secretary-Treasurer, 258 John Street, Sault Ste. Marie .

The Bishop would like to recommend to the clergy a little book recently published by the S. P. C. K., called" The Sign of Faith". It is written by the Rev. Phillip Carrington, the Bishop's successor as: Dean of Divinity at Bishop's College, Lennoxville, and describes . itself as "the old historic Christianity, in its English form, so pre­sented as to appeal to boys and girls". The book follows the struc­ture of the Catechism, and this volume is based on the first part only. It is intended to be follo·wed by two !other parts. The Bishop recommends it as a help towards preparing boys and girls for Confirmation. It has some very interesting sketches and illus­trations, and costs only one shilling. It is particularly useful to those ·who have anything to do with Boy Scouts.

The Bishop proposes to hold an Ordination on Sunday, ~T1nt'~ 21st. He regrets that it is not possible to have the Ordination on the can­onical day, namely, May 31st, as Bishop's College, from which three of the candidates come, does not close until the middle of June,

IT was with f eelings of the deepest regret that many friends in Thessalon and St. Joseph's Island learned of the sudden death of

Mr. Allan M. Andrews, which occurred suddenly on Sunday morn­ing, January 11th, at his home in Detroit. He had not been in robust health for many years, but no immediate danger was appre­hended, and his sudden call was a terrible shock to his mother and his many friends.

In the late summer or autumn of each year he was accustomed tv spend some time in 'rhessalon, where he had a cottage on the lake shore, finding rest, refreshment and renewed health in the. bracing atmosphere of the north. At other times his cottage was freely at the d~sposal of his friends and of the clergy of the Diocese for their vacations. He took a deep interest in the affairs of Thes­salon, and particularly in the Church of the Redeemer, in which he was a devout 'worshipper during his visits.

In 4is native city of Detroit he was much beloved and respected fo r his upright and Christian character. He had a keen interest in boys ' work, and many young men today look back upon the wise counsel and friendly help they had received from him. At the t ime of his death he was teacher of a bovs' class in St. Matthias' Church School, and was to have met his cl~ss on the morning of his death.

'ro his mother, who has accompanied him on his visits to Algoma, We tender our sincere sympathy.

Eternal rest grant unto him, 0 Lord,

Dear Brethren of the Clergy and Laity:

Last year in my New Year's Letter to the Diocese I asked you to make a special effort to support the Algoma Mission Fund on which we depend so much for the maintenance of our mission work. I am most grateful to you for the splendid response which you have made to that appeal. At the beginning of this year the balance in the fund was over fifteen hundred dollars more than it was when I wrote to you. In a year of serious trade depr,ession, when so many of our parishes have been hard hit by the closing of mills and by unemployment in every industry, I think that this is truly won­derful, and it shows, how much real zeal and enthusiasm for the work of the Church there is in Algoma.

I would like this year, as we stand on the threshold of Lent, to ask you not to relax your efforts, but rather to redouble them, and to show your love for our blessed Lord by even greater denial for the sake of His work. Particularly I would ask you to make a great effort to increase your contributions towards the Missionary Society of the Canadian Church. The missionary call comes to each one of us as the result of a direct command of our Saviour, and if we value our Religion as we ought, and realize the manifold bless­ings which it brings to us, we shall strain every nerve to help to bring others to know and love our Lord Jesus Christ, not only the Indians and Eskimo, the Chinese and Japanese in ,our own land, but also those people in other parts of the world where the Can­adian Church is working.

• And here I would call your attention to an irregularity which sometimes takes place in a few parishes, and that is that the War­dens have been known to uSle money put in the red side of the duplex envelopes for parochial purposes. This ought not to be done. The money in the red envelope is given by the donors for missionary work, and should be applied only to the Algoma Mission Fund, and the other missionary work of our Church. To use it in any other way is to misapply money entrusted to the Rector and Wardens for a definite purpose. It may not be used even for the Diocesan Expense Fund.

In many of our parishes the miss,ionary spirit is strong. There is no better sign of spiritual progres1s than this. There are others, however, where the people seem to have no vision beyond their own needs. This narrow parochial view is a very bad sign, either that the people are not being taught properly, or that they do not respond as they should.

5

I do not wish you to; think that my Lenten letter is mainly about money. It is not the contributions that I am thinking of in thems,elves, but as signs of zeal and enthusiasm and genuine love of our Lord and Master. This Lent I call upon you all to try to deepen your spiritual life and to come closer to our Saviour.

And you, my brethren of the Clergy, I exhort to be even more earnest and faithful than in the pasrt, in your apostolic labours. I cannot do better than quote some words from a Church newspaper which emphasize that the real work of the Minister of God and his lay helpers is faithful teaching in the pulpit, the Sunday School and the Confirmation clas·s. It is this which tells, and it is from this that there springs zeal ,and enthusiasm for the missionary work of the Church, and self-denial to support it. "The problem of the supply of candidates for Holy Orders will be solved in the Con­firmation class; the teaching function of the Church finds its proper expression when the priest teaches in his school; the worship of the Church is best tackled by taking endless pains with the servers and the choir; retreats will bring men and women much closer to God than conventions; and missions will do more to convert the indif­ferent than conferences. If the menace of a pagan moral standard is t o be met effectively, this, can only be done by faithful slogging work in the parishes, by building on firm foundations of patient toil and persevering prayer, and by rigorously avoiding the tempt­ation of individualism and congregationalism."

Lastly, I would write a few words on a subject on which last Lent I preached a course of sermons in our Pro-Cathedral, namely, , 'Religion in the Home." Of all the agencies for training children in Religion none is so powerful or lasting as the home. The Gen­eral Board of Religious Education is making a special effort this Lent to set before parents their duty in the religious training of their children, and to give them as much help ,as possible. I ask that on one Sunday in Lent sermons should be preached on this subject, and that literature should be distributed to the congre­gation. Copies of the leaflets called " Wanted, a NBW Kind of Par ent," and" Ideals for Christian Parents ", can be obtained free from the G. B. R. E. if the clergy will write for them to 604 Jarvis St., Toronto 5. Other methods of impressing the importance of the subject can be easily thought out.

And may the blessing of God Almighty rest upon you all during this coming season of opportunity and special effort, and bring you to the joy and happiness of a Holy Easter.

Your affectionate Father in God,

+ ROCKSBOROUGH R. ALGOMA.

THE ADVENrr ORDINATION

ON Sunday, November 30th, at the Pro-Cathedral, the Lord Bishop of the Diocese admitted four men to the Order of Deacons, -

Mr. Richard Kelway-Bamber, Mr. Cyril Clarke, Mr. Marshall Wil­liam Talbot, and Major Edwin Wrightson.

The service had been preceded by nearly a week of preparation at Bishophurst, including a day's Retreat conducted by the Rev. Fr. Turney, S.S.J.E., of Bracebridge.

The service began at ten o'clock, when three processions entered the church,-the candidates accompanied by the Ven. Archdeacon Balfour, the choir, and finally the Bishop, with his Chaplain, Canon Colloton, and two servers, Rev. Richard Haines and Rev. J. Selwyn Rhodes, and the preacher, Fr. Turney. After the hymn, "On J 01'­

dan's Bank", Fr. Turney preached a very telling sermon upon the Ministry of the Church, taking as his text, Heb. 5: 1, "For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God". His clear exposition of the duties and responsibilities of the minister of Christ, and his words: of counsel to the candidates, will not soon be forgotten.

Following another hymn, the four candidates were presented by the Archdeacon to the Bishop, who asked the prayers of the con­gregation on their behalf. The Litany was then sung, to Tallis' well-known music, by the Rev. C. F. Hives, Principal of the Shin g'­wauk Home. After the hymn, "Lo, He comes "vith clouds descend­ing", the Communion Service was begun, the actual Ordination tak­ing place after the Epistle. 'rhe Gospel was read by one of the newly ordained deacons, Major Wrightson, and the service pro­ceeded to the end. Immediately before the Blessing the four dea­cons received their letters of orders and licences, authorizing them to exercise their ministry in their respective spheres of labour.

The service was marked by dignity and reverence throughout and the music was splendidly rendered by the choir, Mr. Lloyd Ramsay presiding at the organ. The music of the Eucharist was Woodward in E fiat, except the Creed and Gloria in Excelsis which were sung ,to the plainsong setting of Merbecke, composed for the first English Prayer Book of 1549. rrhe singing of the ancient hymn, "Now my tongue, the mystery telling ", to its proper plain­song melody was very effective.

All the ordinands are of English birth excepting Mr. Talbot, who is a native of Ireland. Mr. Kelway-Bamber studied at King's Col­lege, London, and Mr. Clarke with the Brotherhooq of St. Paul, Little Bardfield, Essex. Mr. rralbot is a student of Bishop's Col­lege, Lennoxville. Major vVrightson has an honoura"ble ,var record, having enlisted in 1914 and served in Gallipoli, . Egypt, Palestine, and on the western front in France and Belg'ium, marehing into Germany with the army of occupation. He . was 'wounded in both Gallipoli and France, and was awarded the Mons Star and the General Service and Victory Medals.

He gave 'a very interesting account of his visit to Eng­land and to the wonderful Pass1ion Play at Oberammergau.

On Thursday, the Bishop went to Milford Bay, where the Rev. C. Goodier and his wife are labouring so faithfully and success­fully . Nine candidates were presented at the Confirmation Ser­vice in the evening, for the sacred rite, and the church was crowded from end to end. -

In the evening, the Bishop again visited the Sanatorium and pr eached at Evensong to 'a deeply appreciative congregation. H is Lordship 's: kindness in sparing time to come to us like this, is a matter of deep thankfulness, marking this Sunday as a Red Letter Day in our calendar.

ST. ANDREW'S CHURCH, SHEGUIANDAH

S .T. Andrew's, the Indian Church on the Reserve at Sheguiandah on the Manitoulin Island, has been '~T onderfully improved

through the earnest efforts of Mr. L. F. Hardyman, catechist in charge, Mrs. Hardyman, and the members of the Indian band resid­ing on the Reserve.

The church has been in a very bad condition for some time, and an appeal was made to the Executive Committee for some assist­ance. "rhe committee was able to make a grant of $100'.0'0, thanks to the generous gift of a lady in England; and encouraged by this Mr. Hardyman called a meeting of the Indians, and outlined a pro­gramme of needed improvements, as follows: repairing and paint­ing the church outside;o ling and varnishing the woodwork of the interior, putting down a hardwood floor, and providing four new Coleman lamps; f"encing the church lot, and erecting a flag pole in the church yard.

The Indians responded enthusiastically to these proposals, and undertook to 9.0 the necessary labour freely, in order to make the money go as far as possible. They secured a fine pole, fashioned and erected it; and now the flag flies proudly from its summit. Next they tackled the fence. The Indians secured the cedar posts, rails and braces; and now a good wire fence, with two fine gates, sur ­rounds the lot. The front gate is quite imposing, and is surmounted by a cross.

Then work began on the church building. Much of the outside lumber was decayed, and rusty nails stuck out everywhere. 'This lumber was removed, and new siding put on wherever necessary; and the building' was painted a silver grey, with dark green facings, the windoy'{ 'ash being painted red. rhe doors were treated with

a dark oak varnish stain. The belfry was in bad repair, and was difficult to deal with; but it too yeilded to earnest effort, and now stands, as goud as new, and surmounted by a cros:s,gleaming with new aluminium paint.

The interior of the church was then thoroughly renovated and a hardwood floor put down. This latter work has been freely given by three of the Indians, one of whom, the chief of the band, al­though a member of another Communion, was anxious also to share in the good work.

The loyalty of the Sheguiandah band of Indians to the Church is worthy of all praise, and they are very grateful for help received. At their annual Christmas entertainment they passed the following resolution of thanks to the members of the Woman's Auxiliary for the gifts sent them from year to year:

We, the Indians assembled to-day for the annual Christ­mas Tree at the Parsonage wish to thank the women of the Church for remembering us again, and we hope God will bless all their labours which have brought so much happi­ness to the Indians for so many years.

BEAR CAVE MISSION rrHE little mission church at Bear Cave, in the Parish of Rosseau, has received a new lease of life as a result of the enthusiastic

efforts of Mrs. Howland and the Misses Wadsworth, of Toronto. The church is a log building, erected during the time the late

Archdeacon Gillmor was Rector of Rosseau, but ·it had fallen into a ~ather sad state externally. N ow, owing to the success of the ladies In Toronto, enough money was collected to put a fireproof roof on th~ church, fit in new windows and steps:, re-mortar the logs, and p~mt all woodwork. Then a brick chimney was built and a belfry WIth bell (the gift of Mr . Wadsworth) was erected on the roof.

Internally some most acceptable gifts were made. A frontal and uper-frontal, beautifully embroidered for the altar also heavy ve~our curtains for the rear of the alt~r and the vestry from the 1fIsses. Hagarty of Toronto; a fair linen cloth and bea~tiful set of a t~r lmen from the Chancel Guild of St. Mark '8 Church, Parkdale, a nIce square of carpet for the little chancel from Mrs. Jones of Tor-o~ d ' PI 0, an a number of prayer and hymn books, through Canon

umptre.

Tth~ parish of Rosseau and its three outstations. are also very O"r~.e. ul to the l\1:isses Hagarty, who each Christmas have collected t~ ~Ient money and purchased Christmas gifts for the children of fa e 'lou:- congregations, besides remembering the clergyman and his fi:

1 ~ \nda very g~nerous way. This year one hundred and seventy-e c 1 ren receIved Christmas gifts.

THE BISHOP'S :SUGGE8:TIONS REGARDING CONFIRMATION

yoP will find in the" Algoma l\1issionary News" for March 1928 some suggy~tiops , regarding Confirmation which I would espe­

cially commend" to _. clergy who are new to the Diocese., I ~hould like to add here a few points which have' been suggested to me by my experience during' the three years since .those I,lotes were written.

1. , ,The priest of the parish should read the Preface and the pas­sages of .spripture, ,but if more than one clergyman (or lay reader) is present, ,th,e parish priest should read the Preface only. He will then be free to go do,vll and kneel with his candidates and direcV? , them, and his presence will help to- give them confidence. '" ' , 2. If there is =any visiting priest, he should act as chaplain to the Bishop, standing ; behind his chair with the pastoral staff the whole time, except during the sermon. Of course, if the Rural Dean is present, he will act as chaplain. Any licensed lay reader may be appointed by the Bishop to act as his chaplain for the time being. If, however, there is no Qther priest or suitable layman, the priest in charge shoVld parry the crozier into church in front of the Bishop, and then stand it in the corner of the sanctuary except during the actual laying on of hands, when it should be held behind the Bishop.

3. I am still not satisfied in many parishes with the way in which the candidates return to their places after the Laying on of Hands. It is very upsetting for those who are confirmed first to have the others who belong to the Sall.le row tread over their legs, ~ or even trample on them, when they return to 'their places. The best way is' to bring all the candidates who occupy a certain row into the aisle ; ~ and ' then let the one nearest the vvall come to be confirmed first, the 'others in order. They will then return to their places ' without any confusion.

4 . . (have seve~q,l times referred to the fact that after candidates have peen confirmed they should return to their places au-d kneel down, engaging inprlvate prayers. This is done in the' great ma­jority of p,arishes, but there are still a few where the candidates af ... -' ter their return sit down and stare about. This does not look as, if they had a proper conception of the great rite in which they are taking part, and I hope that they will be carefully instructed to' kneel down and thank God for the great gift of the Holy S.pirit. If the number of candidates is very large, say, fifty or more" they might very well sit down again after a short time.

5. As I mentioned before, I give a short instruction before the vows are taken. This is meant for the candidates alone, who should remain seated. I usually take the threefold vows, beginning at the bottom of page 333. After the vows" the C( Veni Creator" (hymn 435) is sung kneeling and softly, or,if ,not known, one of the fol- " lowing: 427, 438, 441 or 604. No other should be sung here, be­cause this hymn must be a prayer, and I do not believe there are any other suitab~e prayers in the hymn book.

THE ALGOMA M1!SSION ARY NEWS 15

6. The responses after the' (V eni 'Creator" are usually murmured by about two people, somet.imes les,s. I should be very glad if the candidates and choir could be instr:.ucted to answer audibly, com­mencing with, '''Who hath made heaven and earth".

7. The Blessing. I do not know of any other Diocese where the newly confirmed are blessed alone, the congregation standing; but I believe that this is what the Prayer Book means, and I have found that whenever 'I have done· it in other Dioceses the people have been much impressed. ' I shall therefore continue this custom, which seems to have met with much approbation. .

8. May , I remind the clergy once more that 'after t'he service I should like to have a list of the names and ages of the candidates. Nothing else is necessary for the diocesan register. Also that I should sign the parochial register of Confirmations before I leave the parish.

9. The last thing I wish to say is that, as there must inevitably be a certain amoUIit of sameness about Confirmation services as they come round year by year, I am sugg:esting that each year I shou1d take some point of Church doctrine for special emphasis. During the last two years I have dwelt in my addresses mainly on the viTork of the Holy Spirit. This year I propose to dwell upon the doctrine of the Church, and I would therefore suggest that some of the hymns at any rate be chosen on this subject. I would meh-' tion the following: ,

359. Faith of Our Fathers, (the fourth tune. is the best and-is well worth learning).

624. The Church's one Foundation. 362. Blessed city, heavenly Salem. 648. Thy hand, 0 , God, has guided. 425. Round the sacred city., 533. , Lift up your heads. __ . 636. The Son of God. 383. Onward, Christian soldiers. 414-5. St. Bernard's well-known hymn, "F'or thee, 0 dear,

o dear country" and ' , Jerusalem the golden". f these I strongly recommend the first four.

I should like to say how much the clergy who have tried it like Morehouse's Canadian Edition -of" God's Board" as a Communion ; anual.. The price is. ~~c, and it cap. be obta:ined fro~ the G. B.' ~. d 't I thmk every pOSSIble effort should be made to gIVe the ca;ndI-

a es some Communion manual as a help for the , rest of their lives.,

Canon Piercy has been suffering from an attack of '''flu'' but' ~e are gl d t 1 ' . bee a . 0 earn that he is well on the way to recovery. He has, R ~l ~v:~ed, however , by the doctor. to take a few weeks rest, The F n' t y 11 Clarke has undertaken temporary duty at SturO'eon

CONISTON

THE Coniston Branch of the Anglican Young People's Association is a very live body, and deeply interested in the work of the

Church. Meetings are held each Monday evening in the public school, and efforts are made to have special speakers to address them. Recently the Rev. A. P. Banks gave a most interesting ad­dress on the Virgin Islands, where he was for some years rector of an important church.

On Sunday, December 14th, members of the Ass,ociation took part in the evening service at All Saints' Church. Mr. Albert Deeks read the' first lesson, and Mr. Bert Patterson the second. A solo was sung' by Miss Doris peeks. The Rev. Canon Simpson gave an address on the Christian Ministry. The formation of the A. Y. P.

·A. in Coniston has resulted in additions to the ranks of Sunday School teachers, and it is hoped that the young men may officiate a,s servers and lay readers.

But a later letter from Coniston informs us that the International Nickel Company has cut down its work in every department there. About 90 men were laid off in November, and about 80 in January. The acid plant has closed down, and the men who worked there have been transferred to Copper Cliff, and have taken ' up their residence in Sudbury. It has meant that five or six Church families and also some young people have moved away, and some of the A. Y. P. A. members have gone.

Thus do encouragements and disappointments alternate in pas­toral work. But it is cheering to remember that such losses in one place must mean corresponding gains to the Church elsewhere.

GARSON MINE

THERE was a splendid attendance at the vestry meeting of the Church of the Good Shepherd, Garson. 'rhe Wardens' financial

report was exceedingly gratifying. After meeting all obligations, diocesan and parochial, there was a balance on hand of $30.00, and the expenses had been much heavier than those of the previous year. There had been some improvements made in the church, notably the insertion of the figure of the Good Shepherd in the central panel of the east window.

TheW. A. had had an excellent year, the balance on hand to­wards the final payment on the church debt being $72.00. The Sunday School, under the able superintendence of Mr. John Bell, was also in a flourishing condition. Mr. Harold Peacock was re­appointed Clergyman's Warden, and Mr. Thomas E. Barlow was elected People 's Warden.

THE ALGQMA MISSIONARY NEWS 17

There has been a gratifying increase in the attendance at the services during the past two years. rrhis is due to the fact that the Falconbridge Mine is not far from the church, being only two and a half miles to the east. Canon Simpson held services in the school "house at Falconbridge for six months, and then the people, realizing the number of services he had to conduct and the wide extent of his mission, informed him that they would prefer to at­tend the church at Garson, and a considerable number are very regular in their attendance.

THE PARISH HOUSE OF ST. JOHN'S, NORTH BAY

OUR Parish House is practically completed. We are proud of it. We understand that many citizens ·of North Bay are proud of it

too for it is an improvement and an asset to the city. The whole appearance of the church and the surroundings is vastly improved by the new building'. The church block is now filled with a mass of buildings which are good to look at. When we provide the new entrance and stairway up to the centre of the lawn it will be en­tirely satisfactory. The architect is to be congratulated on the success of his vision.

The interior of the building is most satisfactory in its propor­tions and appearance. Everyone who steps into Oliver Hall, the main hall, remarks upon its splendid appearance. The arrange­ment of the various halls and rooms is equally satisfactory, and we have reason to . believe that the building will prove comfortable and adequate. Most of the halls and rooms are planned to serve a double or triple purpose, which will account for some feautures in them or the omission of others. For instance, it would have been possible to have had more decorative features in the main hall, but these would have been in the way when the hall was used as a gymnasium, so they were omitted. Probably most people win think that the hall looks best just as it is.

When we remember that we were limited by the foundation of the hall that was already built, and limited also to the expenditure of only a certain amount of money, we have every reason to believe that we could not have done better than we have done. And quite probably if we had started to build from the foundation and had not ~een limited to any particular sum, we would not have done better. h he builders, Messrs. Jeffry & Stevens, and the other contractors, . ave done their work well. We have a . very well built structure, In h' h 1 W IC only the best materials have been used. 'rhe contractors 1ave gone out of their way to do everythi~g in the best possible manner. We have every reason to be proud of our Parish House.

ccrrHE NE,V PARSON '

p E ladies of the W. A. of All Saints ' hurch, Huntsvill~, who have already made a name for th m elves as entertainers in c c The

Old Maids ' onvention' and "Fun on the udbun' Local", scored another brilliant success in the production of a three-act play in the parish hall on the ev nings of the 3rd and 4th of December.

The play, which was ntitled curhe New Parson , called for a large cast, 18 men and 14 women; and it "as a urpri 'e to many that all parts were taken by " omen. 0 effe tively were thes im­personators of the mere man made up that the identit~ of very few of them was discovered. It is said that one man onl~v recoo'nized his own daughter through her resemblanc to a brother.

vVe wi h we had pace to de cribe the play in full , but mu t con­tent ourselves with saying that the three act represented r eo I tivel,) a donation party, a mar 'hmallow roast and a hurch pi nic , and that in all thre there was much fun aHd merriment. The prin­cipal role c c 'rh e New Parson", "as taken by Mrs. Mackie Kin ton; and a photo of her in thi character which found its wa} to the

ynod office, ha been a cause of much speculation a. to the identity of the ne'" member of Algoma's clerical staff.
