services were carried out In similar
manner as at ST. Paul's Rev. Preston
Nash. rector OF Christ church made a
delightful address TO the children in his
well-known. pleasing style. He used as
his text "Basaliel" which is interpreted
in English as under the shadow Of God. ="
He told his hearers how Basaliel built
the tabernacle of God and in applying
this TO character building, he said that
We should build up the temples OF God.
He called for volunteers TO do this kind
Of work and in showing how this building
should be done. he demonstrated that
children should begin with it at their
homes among the members Of their fam
lies. In the schools and later in their
places Of business.
As the workman dgged into the soil
until ne came 10 solid earth so should
We do our digging by repenting our sins.
