large Tumout of Protestant Nurses At Zion

Members of the Protestant Nurses Association yesterday com. memorated the anniversary of fIoI'0n0O Nightingale by attending "nice at Zion Presbyterian Church in the eveninl. About 1oo uniformed nurses attended the National Memorial Day service.

The group assembled at the ohurch about no and took their placee in a body: They were ex- tended a welcome by the minister. may G. Carlyle Webster. on behalf .1 the Session and the congregat-

ion.

Worklm together with God was the insane used by Rev. Mr. Web- ster in his sermon taken from Text. let. Corinthians. 3. 6 and 9. "I did not the plant-lnv. Appollus did the watering but it was God that made the seed grow. we work to- gether in God's service."-

The Minister said hi part: "Great changes were taking place. marvellous transformations were being made. a new age was being ushered in. The impossible was becoming possible. Paul realized an explanation was necessary. The only adequate explanation was to be found in the goodness and mercy and power of God. And yet while this was true. it was not the whole truth. for God in his wisdom had called human instruments to stand with Him in bringing about this miracle of progress."

"rhus through the ages God has depended on men to co-operate with Him in carrying out His plan! and purposes among men. In the physical world this fact is quite evident. Though God created the world and gave it to men it was not yet fully complete. Houses had "to be built. fields had to be tilled and sown. and harvests had to be garnered. To feed this hungry people God awaits the co- operation of men.

" in the caraoif sick and suffering humanity God has been pleased to call into partnership medical doctors and nurses He is counting on you to co-operate with Him in the alleviation of pain and the healing of the bodies and the minds of your fellowrnen. Yours is a high calling indeed. one that re- quires knowledge and skill. pat- ience and perseverance. faithfulness and fidelity. So as you seek to ful- fill your mission you will discover that you need the help and wisdom of God. look. therefore to Him who is the source of all wisdom and grace and strength.

"Be assured that although the tasks may at times seem in- mrmountable He does not ask you to do everything. He counts on you to stand in your place and do your work as He gives you to see it. He is not asking you to produce great results. He simply wants you in be loyal and faithful in your nod given tasks and to leave the results to Him. lie assured that your efforts will not be in vain and that at last you will hear from His gracious lips 'Well done, good and faithful servant!"

About five years after v.1 my members of the aiarlotfotown Branch of the Canadian Legion yesterday headed by me -Reece Band turned out for their annual 3l0m0HIl DI! Ohurch Parade. About 100 poppy wearing man pg;-. aded to services at St. Dun.stan's Basilica and Trinity United Church. The men. commemorating v.g; DIV. moved off from the Legion Home at 10.16 A.

Another wreath was placed at Trinity Church by Mr. In M. Brown while a third wreath was placed at the Basilica by Capt. J. J. Connolly. ' I-Iigih Mass at the Basilica was offered by Rev. George MacDonald while Rev. E. Eliesworth delivered the sermon. At the conclusi of Mass, the Last Post and Reveille wire sounded.

Rev. H. E. D. Ashford and Rev. H. C. Rice conducted services at Trinity Church. Rev. Mr. Aahford delivered the sermon entitled "Did V. E. Day Settle Anythingf".

Following services the two part- ies united in front of Trinity Church and moved up Prince to Kent Street where 1-lis Honor Lieutenant-Governor J. A. Bernard took the salute in front of simp- sons.

floor of the Commons.

Despite this sound record. Mir. lidiwNaught is faced with extreme- ly strong competition for the Fish- eries Portfolio in event of Mr. Mayhew accepting an appointment to the Senate. Counter-claims for the Fisheries post have already been entered on behalf of James Sinclair. MP. for Coast-Cepilano. B. C.. parliamentary assistant to Finance Mihister Abbott, and T. G. W. Ashbo-urne, M.P. for Grand Falls-White Bay; Newfoundland. Imrnensity of the fishing industry in both British Columbia and New- foundland makes for powerful pressure from these sections to have a. fisheries minister either from the far east or the far west.

A more probable post for Mr. MacNaught is that of Secretary of State. now held by 1". Gordon 'Bradiey of Newfoundland. Mr. Bradley's health leaves much to be desired. He has been absent from the chamber for some time past and his first appearance in two weeks was at the parliament- ary press gallery dinner last night. It is strongly hinted that he will accept a Newfoundland vacancy in the Senate.

Mr. Ma.cNaught by virtue of his legal training and his experience in legal constitutional matters. is regar as an excellent claimant for this portfolio. Although the de- partment of the Secretary of State is . smaller one, it is extremely important as its cuznbent re- ports to Parliament on behalf of nearly 150,000 members of the civil service of Canada The See- retary of State does not fix civil seryioe salaries but has much to do with matters such as workins conditions. classifications. hours. holidays and other conditions of government employment. Also. as was demonstrated by Health Min- ister Paul Martin. the Secretary- ship of State is a. powerful rung up which to climb to one of the larger and heavy-spending deparisneitts of government.

Hospital Day

Observed At City Hospital

The initial observance of Hos- pital Day at the Charlottetown Homltal was marked by the at- tendance of a large group 01 Catholic graduate nurses at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and their reception of Holy Commun- ion yesterday. Mass was celebrat- ed by the Rt. Rev. E. Baldwin, C.Ss.R., Chaplain of St. Veronica's Guild.

Ilowers for the altar were do- nated in lTlGmO!'y of Florence Mac- Innis. R.N., and Mrs. O'Donnell. mother of Miss Teresa O'Donnell. R.N. The Slsters' Choir sang ap- propriate hymns.

Following Mass. Communion breakfast. served by student nurses. was had in the Nurses' Re- fectory. An inspiring address by Father Baldwin was a highlight of Memori..l Day.

A vote of thanks. on behalfiof the nurses was tendered to the Reverend speaker by Mrs. Gerald Maddigan, president of the Guild. She also expressed appreciation for the spiritual direction and deep interest the Father has ta- ken In the nurses' activities in past years.

In memory of Florence Mac- Innis. R.N., a minute of silence was held and prayers offered for the repose of her soul.

Father Baldwin expressed grati- tude to the Reverend Sisters for their zeal and co-operation. and the nurses whose large attendance made the day a memorable one.

A social hour terminated in happy gathering. Music was furnished by Misses Bernice Haughey, R.N., ,and Anna Campbell. student nurse.

Rev. Fr. Baldwin addressed the nurses as follows:

"On this. your annual Memorial Day. I wish to speak to you on the Catholic Hospital and the Law of Christian Charity.

"Secularism is. as you know. a way of thin-king-thinking without God. It is a way of acting--acting without God. It is a way of liv- ing-livlng without God. Secular- ism does not deny the existence of God. it simply ignores God. It does not. deny that man was cre- ated by God and endowed by Him with certain inalienable rights-it simply ignores that relationship. Secularism reached its logical de- velopment in World War II: the tortures of the concentration camp: the mass murder of all who were considered a threat to the State; the disposal of the helpless, the sick and the aged; the wholesale experimentation on human beings as if they were guinea pigs. All of this was inspired by the same con- viction which guidea the advo- cates of deliberate murder of un- born children. and of those who suffer from an incurable disease.

"It is only when the effects of sin break in savage war that many begin to suspect that there is something wrong with the world. Few come to the conclu- sion that there is something wrong with themselves. And so evil is. in a sense, perpetuated in a world. which is not conscious of God, His law or the responsi- bility to a Creator and Judge. Secularism is the fertile soil of social tragedies. Its product is the most atrocious crimes against hu-

some

of education with that of years ago. some speakers declared that retrograde steps have been taken in that school fairs have been discontinued. along with a system of schools like that of the MacDo - ald Consolidated. Several spea - ers showed how the system of education" along agricultural lines in Holland and Denmark is much more beneficial and advanced than the system followed here. It was at this point of discussion that L. P. Maclsasc showed how n a few districts last year a night school program had been conducted twice a week. with a marked degree of success. After considerable discussion the above-noted conclusions were reached-conclusions which would seem to indicate the inadequacy of the present educational system. The meeting was adjourned with the understanding that such con- ferences will be continued in the future. as it is -found most bene- ficial to discuss educational pro- blems in a mutually informal way.
