WArERBuRy,-liay in some previous COM
munications ventured a few comments on the
popular feeling relating to the financial aspect OF
our school affairs, and what seemed to grow out
of their discussion, namely, the relation of the
clergy to educational interests and other public
affairs, allow me this week TO note that our Fast
Day services this year seem to have taken de-
parture from long established usage relating to
subjects proper for Fast Day discourses. Hereto
fore national affairs some topic OF the times in
some of their religious or moral aspects have
furnished subjects, but this year the events In
Gethsemane preceding the crucihxion were
chosen as the theme OF Mr., Wheelers discourse
at the union meeting in the vestry OF the Congre-
gatonal church
