..'S UBSCRIPTIONS to the Charlottetown Guardian may be

handed to their Rept. Archie Hume. ST. PAUL'S CHURCH

At the mornira service at St. Paul's Anglican urch, the Rector Reverend LeDi-ew Gardner in

speaking to the boys and girls ad- monished them not to drift aimless- ly through life like a rudderless boat. He advised them to have a. purpose to keep the rudder of obedience perfect. "The Lord is my Shepherd," 23rd Psalm was the text of Mr. Gardner's ‘morning sermon. He inicd out that for one toobtain t e fullsignifl- canoe of the 23rd Psalm, its relative niosftion must be considered; the 22nd Psalm is the Psalm of the Cross. the 24th Psalm is the Psalm of the King; in other words the 23rd Psalm is on the road from the Cross to the Crown. the Lord is cur Shepherd while we are passing from the Cross to the Crown. The ideal shepherd. Mr. Gardner explained is s. constant companion. one who nev- er leaves you -e. road mate. "I have known, my sheep and am knOWn of mine. they hear my voice and they follow me." He gave a very vivid mental picture of the sheep following their shepherd's voice in Palestine and pointed out that if we do not follow Jesus, he is not our Shepherd and w cannot expect to have the good th ngs promised in the 23rd Psalm. We have a great tendency to follow Christ as a Shepherd but not risour Shepherd. We wont men placed in public posi- tlons. whom God has guided to such positions and not men who seek the position for self gratification; there we would receive the blessing pro- mised us in the 23rd Psalm Cation Malone took asthe subject for his sermon in the evening “The part a Christian must ploy in deeming the world." He explained that the Christian religion attracts ‘men for any one of 3 reasons. 1. De- liverance out of a life which meaningless. 2. The Christian relig- ion provides them with a. more rea- sonable philosophy or life. 3. The Christian reli ion is the only rein- edv for condi ions as they exist Savation means more than seeking satisfaction or security for oneself for it is God's wil at we as Christians working with Him should endeavour to save all. The Canon mentioned that we t can do our

rt in the redemption of the world v livin in close fellowship with Christ, y living lives of service to Christ and to our fellow men and lastly by living lives which bear witness of the faith that is within US. The anthems sung at the mom- ing and evening services were re- spectively "Jesu, Word of God 1n- earnate" -Mozart. and "011 Sacred Head Surrounded," —Moza.rt. Mr. Burleigh Taylor usisted at both services.
