UNION SERVICE
OF THANKSGIVING
Rev. c. c. CIlayer breaches Sermon in
Methodist Church ON Theme, The
Springs of Gratitude.

From 125 to $50 persons attended the
annual union Thanksgiving service in
the First Methodist church Wednesday
evening. The sermon was preached by
Rev. {. c. Chayer, pastor of the church.
Pastors of the other churches also took
part in the sprogram. Rev. DIR. II. Z.
Woodin Of the Centre Congregational
church reading the scripture. Rev. Ed
win Z. Wood of All Souls church offer
ing prayer, Rev. DR.. Clark 7. Brownell
If the First Baptist church leading in
the responsive reading, and Rev. E. ..
:. Osgood Of All Souls church pro-
nouneing the benediction.
The subject of Rev. Mr.. Chayer' $
sermon was The Springs of Gratitude,
and was based on the 10th and 10th
verses of the 18th chapter of Luke. The
speaker began by pointing out that graft
tude is net virtue that can be put on
from without but that it is virtue
which wells from within. 1t is like the
underground waters that seep back and
forth in the seams of the soil the springs
must be tapped, and the everything crusts
of rock removed before the waters can
come to the surface. The important
question for such a service as this is
not, What should we be thankful for?''
but. How may the springs Of gratitude
be opened. so that our now ungrateful
hearts shall be overlooking With a rush
of true gratitude"
Referring to the ingratitude of nine
Jewish lepers in contrast to the graft
tude of one Samaritan leper whom the
Master of Life had helped. Mr.. Chayer
drew forth two principles whose appH-
cation would help to open the springs of
gratitude and make for more abundant
spirit of thankfulnesS. First. as the Sa-
maritan, in contrast to the Jew, did not
feel that God was under any special or
personal obligation to him, neither
should we feel that God is under any spe-
cial obligation to us. The sober rec0gni-
ton of this will open the springs of
gratitude and allow the waters of thank
fulness to flow freely. Second. as the
Samaritan. in contrast to the Jew, who
felt that he had very well fulfilled his
duty toward God considered that he was
still under heavy obligation, so likewise
the feeling that we have not yet met in
full our obligations toward God, either
in what We are or in what we have done
for Him. but that we are still under
heavy obligation to God will open the
springs of gratitude and allow a rush of
unaffected thankfulness to flow forth.
An Offering amounting between $1S and
so was received for the Associated
Charities.

Work May BE Renewed.

Editor of The Reformer:-
Three years ago the Red Cross was
planning TO cover the whole of Vermont
with a public health nursing service, and
the Vermont Tuberculosis association
EMPLOYED FIVE nurses for tuberculosis
work. To-day, with the exception of
Windham county and one nurse EN-
ployed BY the Vermont Tuberculosis as
ISOLATION. there is no public health nurs-
ing service for rural Vermont that is.
for the villages Of less than 5000 and for
the country districts.
In the larger villages and cities where
the public health nurse has been retained
there are number of physicians, and
often hospital. In the smaller places,
where the public health nursing has been
given up, there is often TO physician.
The country physician is busy man
and gives a great many dollars worth of
service to the poor of his community,
but he necessarily goes where he is
called. The poor family with some mem
her suffering from tuberculosis does not
call the physician until after the disease
has progressed to the infectious stage.
The physician may then get the patient
into tuberculosis hospital. but he
knows he Is locking the stable after the
horse is stolen. the patient has been eX-
posing his family and community 10 in
lection perhaps for months. The pub
lie health nurse. on the other hand. goes
To the poor family before this stage is
reached, often at the suggestion of the
physician. and works to ger the sufferer
under proper care both for his own good
and the protection of others.
The Vermont tuberculosis association
has been forced 10 reduce its public
health nurses from five to one because OF
lack of funds. The association is about
to put on the annual sale of Christmas
seals and hopes 10 secure enough money
to pay for ut least four nurses next
year in addition 10 its educational work
and the Caveriy preventorium. These
nurses will give most of their service to
the rural districts; in the larger places
they cooperate with the local nurse.
There has been a decided decline in our
tuberculosis death rate and | beg to
appeal to our citizens to purchase the
Christmas seals generously in order that
this valuable service may be renewed.
Very truly yours.
