ST. ANNE'S CHURCH NOTES

Sunday, May 10Th. WHITSUNDAY
Services. 1890. Morning Prayer, Lit
any and Sermon.
1l.45, Sunday School Session
7.3O, Evening Prayer and Address.
WHITsUNDAY
''And there appeared unto then
cloven tongues like as of fire. and It sal
upon each of them" Acts lib.
This festival commentaries the
coming of 1.-THE Comforter, which is the
Holy Ghost" promised by our Saviour
to His disciples, and waited for by them
with such eager hope and expectation.
It took place on the Jewish feast OF
Penticost, the anniversary Of the giving
of the law at Mount Sinai. A rushing,
mighty wind filled all the house where
they were assembled, cloven tongues of
fire rested upon them, and they were
filled with the Holy Ghost, so that they
were enabled to speak in all languages;
and the great multitude present there
from all countries heard, each in his
native tongue, the wonderful works OF
God. Not visibly, not with rushing
wind or tongues of fire does the Holy
Spirit descend upon US now when we
are gathered together in the temple of
the Lord. Yet is He present with us
still, though unseen, at the front. or in
the laying on of hands, in prayer or
sacred meditation, lowering above us
with gifts Of comfort and wisdom ready
to enter into every heart that will open
to receive him. Let US keep this bless
ed feast of the Church with love, and
faith, and special prayer, that we may
never grieve or resist the Holy Spirit
Of God, but that our whole lives may
prove His presence in our hearts.
CONTRIBUTION OF FLOWERS
Many of our people are growing beau :

No truer note of the crying need and
demand of the times was ever sounded
than in this little war inspired stanza.
A woman went to one of our hospitals
not long ago asking to be admitted for
a rest cure. After some questions it
was found that the woman had abund-
ant means, number of servants and
nothing to do. She was tired Of just
killing time. To use her own words,
II am so tired of everything. When |

it, it has had for years and l am SO
tired of seeing the same name. I'll
have to buy new one." And in ''days

cries." An Armenian who heard the
story said briefly, "Where IS her patri-
otism? She should be shot. No such
thing must be ssid of our Blue Hens
