GOOD PROGRAM
SUGGESTED FOR
SUMMER SPORTS
Miss Mary Ide Wants Golf
Club Activities Revived
In St. JOhnsbury

The splendid success of winter
sports in st. Johnsbury has guar
anteed its continuance with re-
newed interest another season and
has also suggested to many the
possibility of continuing outdoor
recreation activities into the sum-
mer season. 1t would be a big
thing, everyone admits, if the golf
links, tennis courts and club house
could be re-conditioned and made
available for public use.
We are glad to pass along the
excellent suggestions along this
line contained in letter from Miss
Mary E. Ide to DR.. Dale S. Atwood
president of the winter sports club
and who was successfully active
in promoting them during the past
few months. Miss Ide has been
passing the winter months in Flor
ida. She writes:
Bradentown, Fla, Mar. "a, 1922.
My dear DR.. Atwood:
| have followed with a good
deal of interest, the accounts of
the Winter Sports, as given in
the papers, and letters from
friends in st. Johnsbury. 1t
would be difficult not to imbibe
some of the enthusiasm, even at
this distance. And now that they
have materially come to an end
for this season, | am wondering
if it would be possible while the
memory of them is still fresh, to
arouse some interest in summer
sports. | have been playing golf
this winter and have so thorough
ly enjoyed it and have derived so
much benefit from it, that | can't
bear to think of giving it up. It
is the great game all over the
south and both men and women
and young and old enter into it
with zest; and good, live country
clubs are the result. | have noticed
in the Caledonian that Newport,
Vermont, has already started
movement to organize a country
and golf club and if Newport can
do it, why not st. Johnsbury?
They have nothing to start with.
We already have a course laid out
and at one time it was one of the
best courses in the country. We
also have the tennis courts which
are in almost constant use during
recreation hours and we already
have club house which could
be put in repair and used for both
summer and winter sports.
| think the land belongs to Mr.,
Brooks and some arrangement
could, feel sure, be made with
him.
These are only suggestions,
but | hope you may arouse some
interest now, at the beginning of
the season. |, for one, would like
to have St Johnsbury have a
thriving country club that would
furnish facilities for the out door
sports that bring so much of
health and happiness to a commun-
ity.
Yours sincerely,
Mary f.. Ide.

Lenten Services at
Grace Nj. f.. Church

Tuesday night d large audience
was present at Grace church in
spite of the heavy rain. Mr.. Chad
bourne spoke on "The Unknown
Way of Power" the second in the
series of "The Unknown Ways of
Life" In clear but kindly manner
he pointed out the difference be-
tween the Trinitarian and Unitar-
ian crecds and modes of work
placing great emphasis on the per
son and WORK of the Holy Spirit,
and showed how the great tri-
umphS of the church in all ages
had been won through manifcsta-
tions of power from the Holy
Spirit. The peril today Is that the
church will depend on its vast
membership and resources for its
success rather than on the power
of God. He then touched on the
fact that the early Christians at
Ephcsus declared to Paul that they
had never heard anything about
the Holy Spirit and expressed the
fear that there were multitudes OF
Christians today who know little
about the person and power of the
Spirit. He urged the Christians to
be honest with themselves and
with God and to ask themselves
whether they were doing Their
work in the limitations of human
strength and wisdom or through
the fullness of power divine. A
call for conservation to the King
business was made at the close
Service tonight at 7.30; "The I'm
known Way of Prayer

reported ablaze and other build
ings menaced.
/ QUEBEC, March 29-The
flames which started in the sacris-
ty spread rapidly to the monastery
of the Redemptorist Fathers to
whose care the shrine has been
entrusted and then to the basili-
ca. Apparatus sent from this city
to the most famous Mecca Of
Religious Pilgrims in North Am
erica was able to do little to
check the blaze. Monastery offs
cials estimated the property dam
age at $1,200,000. That greater
toll of church relics was not taken
was due to the heroic efforts of
the brothers who risked their lives
in saving what they could from
the interior of the basilica. The
fire is believed to have been
caused by short circuit, Next to
the cathedral at St. Anne dc
Beaupre the monastery is per-
haps the most magnificent struc-
ture in the Province.
st. Anne de Beaupre the most
famous shrine in the new world
has attracted hundreds of the lame
and the blind who focked there
from all parts of Canada and the
United States to be cured by mi
racles of their affiliations.
In addition to the thousands of
afflicted there gathered thousands
of tourists who gazed upon the
piles of crutches which had been
discarded by those cured. The
village was founded by Breton
Mariners about 1920.
Seeing that the great Basilica
was in danger the brothers decided
to remove everything of value.
Rev. Fr. Bruneau at the risk of
his life succeeded in carrying out
the precious relics and the statue
of st. Anne. The flames soon at
tackled the basilica through the
roof which the fire fighters could
not reach with a stream of water.
In a few minutes the structure was
ablaze from end to end. The
Quebec firemen did their utmost to
save the structure but they were
handicapped by the fact that the
local waterworrks could not supply
enough water for their apparatus.
They were compelled to lay
line of hose 5000 feet long to the
bank of the st. Lawrence river
which was at low tide when the
flames were at their heig ut. The
whole village for a time was in
terror. At one time it seemed as
fdestruction faced the little com
munity which lives for the most
part from selling souvenirs to the
pilgrims during the summer. Just
as they had abandoned horo he
wind turned. The only part of
the entire group of buildings con-
nected with the basihca, which
were saved, was the chapel which
housed the shrine beforc the
church was erected. The statue
of St Anne WI lbc removed to
this chapel pending the constluc-
ton of the main chapel.

tioaal. Some children have bee /, de-
orived of the opportunity and t;;:-::n-
ing because Of the lack Of information
nc to what It is, and what It does.
The Church School Service League
is a national organization, which
teaches the children to do missionary
york. They arc instructed how to
make various objects, such as mats
and paper chains, for the little tots
the larger girls make rag dolls, bunny
rabbits, etc.. while the boys make
wooden toys.
Since we lack this training in our
public schools, consider it a rare
privilege that our children have such
an opportunity as this.
These toys, dolls, ETC., made by the
children, are given to the poor, in and
around Union at Christmas time.
The ages are from three years to
18--the dues are five cents per year
Mothers, let's show our appreciation
by sending our children to the Parish
House each Wednesday afternoon al
four o'clock. Then, mothers, let's some
OF us volunteer our services to assist
as instructors, as it is our children
who are deriving the benefits.
Will you help us carry on this
work? A Motbar
