Since my item regarding the church
was published there has been consider
able talking and investigating done
which proves that Schley is very good
place for church, and the time to
build it is now. Several years ago an
attempt was made to build a church,
but the project failed for threse reasons
First; They work ed without leader,
Second: At that time sisters school
was to be built at Lourdes and church
at Proti vim Both these parishes need
de as much aid as was possible to get
We have reasons to b9lieve that the
promoters of this project naturally did
not favor the building of a church at
Schley, and the newborn congregation,
died in it's cradle. However they had
promises of about $4,000. Today the
chances are very much brighter. live
appoint leader, strive for success re-
CARELESS of what others say, we would
have at least sixty families represent
ed. believe we would not have the
bitter opposition of the Lourdes parish
oners and would have the hearty CO.
operation of the rector of the Protivln
church. If we raised 81, 900 some time
ago, we can do still better now, and
we have chance to raise at least ST.
600 by having pienics: Now IS, 900
church and sixty families ought to be
large enough to justify the building of
church. So let us get together, ap-
point leader, do all that is within our
power to do, and church in Schley
will be reality before long.
