    VICAR'S NOTES_.We. had- quite a successful Annual Meeting.The list of your new Church Council appearson the first page of this Magazine.Mr. Menzies, aftel rz.yiars' service, has re-signed from being a Churchwarden. It hasbeen _a. faith[ul seivice, and not altogether aneasy thing to.help guide the ship, especially dur-ing the years oI war. The meeiing-showed andrecorded its appreciation and thanki for his workand helpfulness.Churchwardens are nor easv to reolace. buryou have been most successful in obtiining Mr.P. G. Harrison as your new warden. Hi hasbeen a faithful member of All Souls for manyyears, and is doing good work among the boysin the C.L.B. He has also been euarilian of theElectoral Roll, ever since I have b"een here, and Ithink for a number of years before my arrival,This rather ordinary task he has done nerfectlvfor the Roll is kepi up-to-date, and is a modJlfor any parish. He takes over his duties wirhthe prayers and good wishes of us all. Hispanner will be Mr. E. E. A. Harrison; yes, Iagree, there is going to be some difiiculties. TwoWardens but only a single narne. I know Ican rely on you to suppo(t both of these nien,both excellent meni we are indeed fortunate.Passiontide and Easter were kept with ereatseriousness, and daily services were welf at.tended. Devotions on Maundy Thursday is al-ways lovely, but this year it seeined even lbvelier,and I think it was due in no small part to Fr.Whitley's Holy Week addresses. Ii was alsowith great satisfaction, one noticed a muchlarger congregation for the Mass of the Presanc-tified. Next year, if it is poxible, I vrant tohave printed details of this service, so that you

So thevdecided to supply us with breakfasi on As."r,'.sion Day. W" 4J,1""! for our service, and thenpass into the Hall where our Ameriian break.fast will be waitilg. This is a wonderful ses.ture, and our prayq and thouehts will be"forFr, O'Leary and llits, O'l;rv" and the verv'goods friends at Holv Trinitv. It is kindnes:slike this which does more thair anvthing else tobreak down misunderstandins "i.rd ti"k" utrealiy believe we are of one fimilv in God.

    Festival it is. I am afraid many are inclined totorget that it is on the same level of importancewith Christmas and Easter.THE INTELLECTUAL FOUNDATION OFCHRISTIANITYI know we may Iook funny and a little stuoid.but too long hai.it been.taken for gt"nt"J bynit.wits that Christian thinkers are sentimen.alists, who preach that it is nice or advantageousto be a Christian, but who funk or avorJ thegreat fundamentals on which all religion (as wellas the finally true Christian religion) ii built.There may be some such shallow teachers, butthey are wholly unrepresentative. Yet ir is quitetime that Chrrstians not only thought out fun.damentals, but asserted the truth of rhemtriumphantly, resolutely. fearlessly, convincingly.Apologising for Christ is cowaidly, and juststupid. He is Truth itself. Let rrs state boidlyand truthfuily the facts, Of course these facti,even when accepted. are not the whole story;they just vindicate the foundations, but on rhe;efoundations we can safely build the super,structure of persona.l religion. that is the religionof the heart and will-the personal relationshipof a sinful and yet saved soul to its Father,Saviour, Friend, and Strengthener: and to itsneighbour-God's other ihild ; and te itr fellowChristian as a true brother or sistet in Christ.So let us get the intellectual foundation com.pletely clear.Next month we will deal with the three ques.tions. Is God's existence an intellectual nices.sity? Is cod good? Is Christ reliablel

    EbUCATION AND CHARACTERMany people who have read a certain amountof popular psychology, seem to find in it areason for neglecting or at least postponing re.Itgtous teachrng and practlce. Recently a groupof young mothers asked for talks in terms ofpsychology, which would deal with this fearthat religion was bad for their childrcnr thatreligion was reptessive and that prayer was wish.

    ful thinking: and God Himself but a projectionof their own feelings towards an earthly lather.It may be supposed that this gioup ofmothers were not exceptional, and that thereare many other young parents, many of themoutside the original influence of the Church,who are anxious to know what contributions, ifany, religion can make to the building of charac.ter in the child thev love. and for whom thevare called to make so many sacrifices. And theiiproblems -are shared by the trained qacher ininfant and nursery *hdols, .

    Will fohn, now aged four years, miss anythingiI he does not learn to say his prayers? Willthe shape of his adult life be altered in anywaythat matters? Mary, lgscl {ive years, has beenasked to go to Sunday School with a friend, andto let her go would change the plans of the Sun.day aftemoon at home. Is it worth it? Willher later life be differenr in any way if she be.comes a "Church Child," goes on to be con.firmed, and gets into the habit of going toChurch for the early service, when stie arrives ather 'teens? Will she miss anything if she stopsaway? )erry, at six, obviously likes his own way.and becomes a rather repulsive child if he can'thave it. Is it, however, any gobd to givd himteaching about 'right" and "wrong"? Or arethese words iust outmoded Victorian cliches,still embalmed by a reaclionary Church, whichhas not found the findings of modern psycho.iogy) Wrll |erry grow out of these little habits,and display a finer character in his adult life, be.cause he was not "repressed" in his childhood?These are real questions to be encouraged inthe modern young parent. Behind them liesthe perception that religion - whether it is anevil or a,good-.stands or falls by the part- it c-anvrr or a gooo -sEnos or I;urs oy Ine parl rr canplay in the making of character in adult life. If ithas no part, or only a questionable part, in theas no part, or only a questionable part, in thefo-rmation- of chatacter,, then the parents of John,Mary and lerry will be wise to give it a miss,since life is full enough already. If on the otherhand, religion can contribute io life somethingwhich can be found in no other wav. the eoodn be found in no other way. the goodwill hesitate before he denies thosearent wlll hesrtat(

    benefits to his child.The modern parent is righr in his connectionbetween religious education and psychology. Forpsychology ii.rhe study-of behaviour in i6'manybranches. Socirl psychology studies scientificallythe way in which humjn beings behave insogiely. The psychology of religion, withoutwhich there can be no scientific ducation, ex-amines the ways in which body, mind, and soulare shaped for religious character, pr, in otherwords, how we aid our children are beingtrained and shaped for that eternal life whicKbegan at our Baprism. Life is a school of charac-ter.Some of the parents of the children of our or.ganisations have met together on two occasionsand have discussed some oI these problems andthey have elected a committee for the purpose ofdiscussing the possibilities of a ParenG' eonfer.ence and Exhibition when some exDerts on rhesesubiects can come down and discuss the orc.blems fully with parents generally.

    I rm most gretcful to the local Press for thewav in which it has takcn this idea uo and ex.preised its desire to help in this veri, diflicrrltproblem which is causing so much concern toour country.THE NEW HALL FUNDThis is very short notice, but there will be an

It is a dub night ofthe Richmond and Twickenham Dramatic Club.Many of the members will be competing in thelocal Drama Festival, but they are letting us usetheir hall on this night and helping witli an en.tertainment, which I think is most kind, and itwill also help us to get our hall, so try and makethe date. short as the notice is,

The whole thing is being producedby Miss Stout, and it is her efiort for the NewHall. I can't possibly give you the full detailsof wlrat is going to happen, but there is a fulldtchestra, and there will also be at one time 3,oviqlins, and another item will be eight handson two pianos. We a(e most fortunate in thatMiss Stout is able to draw on a very large musi.

    cal circle. it is her profession. so it should begood. and also I undersand there is to be somedancing by sone artists. I hope you will sup-port this effort which is so kindly being put onfor us, I know it has been in rehearsal now forsome months, you will have to huny for thosetickets as the maiority of them have already beensold.It is kindnesses like these which encouraee us6n the rather long journey towards the goil ofa Ncw Hall.ALMSGIVING OF THE FAITHFULIt was while I was listening to our Treasurer'sReport at the Annual Meeting that thesethoughts came to me, and I felt that a few ex.pressed id_eas on this very thorny question mighthelp us all.Money is so important in our life, whether wewould have it so or not, that there must be aChristian view of it. It may also be said rightaway that people would not be so weary of hear-ids about monev in c6nnGcti6n with the Chutchif thry were ult quietly .nd consistantly doing

    their duty with regard to money, whether thevhave rnuch or litde. The Vicar'would not theirappear, as he hates to apDear, as a orofessionalbeggar. One thing he riints to do is to brinsthe Christian view of money to the minds anihearts. of his people. It is degrading as well aswearying borh that the priest should have tobeg, and that so many ofihe peoole should haveto be besought,The Christian principle with resard tq monevand all worldly pirssesions is that'ihey are givenus to use, and not iust to possess. That ii theprinciple of stewardship. We do not own any.thing in the absolute iense, in the sense that'itis oui own to keep or do what we will with. Theteaching of the ehurch about money and Dos.sessions is that they are a trust, ' They 'areneither to be wasted nor used for our own as. /grandizement, but for the common good. Thlsnaturally includes provision, etc., for- our familvdependents. Wisdbm, humility and charity wiil

    guide us as to this provision. After makinethis provision, the diim of God's work must b'econsidered, asain in widom. humilitv andcharity. Indiscriminate giving is almost'as bada _ stewardship as witholding what we ought togrve.

    There are many call: on us these days, and wemust give some consideration to them, but thereis no reason whatsoever why a Christian shouldbe expected to give to any cause without dis.crimination. Flag days are a curse, and the pub-]ic subsctiotion lists the snare of the devil ' Ancnmlnatton.lic subsciption the snare of the devil. - Anexcellent rule for us all is to givepublish subscdption

    excellent rule tor us all is to give anonymously,except funds di(ecdy concerned with the Church,for a Church should not oulilish srrhscrintionliss on any accouot. Thesl Church funds aredre fust .nl on Christian rreople. We should allset aside a portion of o,it ri"ans for God, weshould sit down and determine what our steward.ship should be, if we did there would be no more .begging in the Church and no more harassedparochial treasurer. Why should we not de.termine all this when we make out our incometax retums? It would help us to sanctify thatdreaded labour. Besides, if we do it for Caesar,why should we not do it for God?We have to keep the Church eoine and alsoto extend it. The best system of bringine boththe maintenance and extension of the Churchbefore people is by a system similar to that weactually use. In this system of giving an en.velope is provided for every Sunday in the year.Regular offerings can thus be made whethergreat or small, and in a predetermined propor.tion. The envelope and its contents are put inthe collectine box in Church. If for some reasonwe are unable to be in Church sorae Sunday the

    envelope is kept at home to be placed in the boxalons the next Sundav's envelope.TEere are manv occasions when we must feelwe want to makei special, even if a small thankoftering. such as recovery ftom sickness, anniver.sary of-baptism, confirmation, marriage, etc., andsimilar occasions. We must cease to lmaglnethat all ofierings :ue a matter of inclination, tobe held or maie according as when we like' ordislike the vicar, or last Sunday's sermon, or theritual of the Church; of course inclination ap.Dears to be the ruline factor until we haveirasped the Christian 6aching about money andProPerty.Two things are very noticeable to the clergy.One is that !o often rirhen a special ofiering hasto be made, such as a retiring collection, it ispartly deducted from the regular oftering, uponwhi.h th" Church depends io. This is quitewrong and defeats thi whole end of Christianalmsglvrng.The other noticeable fact is that in times ofstress and when oovertv comes to an individualor slump, such aj business-it is the offering ofthe peoble to their Church which very oftensufieis bifore anythins else. Yet often little ap'oarent chanse is'madJin the mode of life of theo"ool" .onc!m"d. fhgy can still afford theirlar,'their cigarettes and 'tobacco, their drinks,and eo to the pictures once a week, if not moreoftenl Thev liave new clothes, and retain manyluxuries which might quite well be given up forthe love of God.- It arises from a lack of im.agination; people feel they must give up someexpenses' and the Church subsequently sufters.as'it is considered as an extra, and somethingwhich will not be missed.The Christian way of giving is direct giving.So many devices have been invented to squeezemoney but of apparently unwilling people, thatthe niinciole oI direct eivine has been obscured.P"orjl" w"nt somethine {or iheir money-whichof iourse is not giving"to God at all, but simpletradine. The solial value of bazaars and feteshas bjen made an excuse for using these thingsas a means of raising money for God's work. Itis remarkable how folk will spend hours organis-ine and working for a bazair. rather than givea iew shillines,

    -whileothers will come and buyand say they do it for the "good of the cause."If pcoile hid the "good of the cause" truly atheart they would give directly to the cause, with-out havi;g to organise these functions.There should certainly be special functions atwhich people may meet. There are obiects whichmay qi.,ite legitimately be supported by fundsraijed -throush fetes. etc., but not the mainten.r.c. and exiension for the Church of God. You

    Council of a parish which has given up money/making functions and replaced them with a Dayof Praier and Givins or other means of directsivinei to hear the tr'uth of what I have written.lot Jnly does money begin to come in regularll.but also the whole soiritual life and outlook ofthe parish becomej gradually changed. Ahishei conceotion of monev and of God's workits?lf beeins io dawn. Thlre is no more mak,ing {zo'for God's work by spending {ro onorganising people's pleasure, or to satisfy thai"somethinq for my money" craving.Some oFyou may disagree, but when one hasseen the results of trying out the way of directgiving, one cannot doubt that it is the rightwav.- Our countrv was not christianised in theeariv times. our cathedrals were not built, ouroatilh.hurch"s were not endowed and adorned,Lr, -""r" of bazaars and fetes. they were builtbi, "dire.t giving," and by no mean! confined tothe wealthv and nobilitv.fhere aie plenty of ways you can help withthe maintenance of your Church. First, directeivins in the F.W.O. and those who have nctio -ich money to give, there are things to bemade and repaired, you see by giving of timeand labour, iou sa're you. Church expenditure.Then there is laundry, cleaning and washing theChurch. sewine and embroiderv for the Church.There is so mu"ch we can all d6. Let us cultivateour imagination. God is waiting fot us to usewhat we have foi Him. But only when we haveseen with our eyes the Pearl of great Price shallwe forget the cost and labour to buy it.
