Psychology Beneficial

Modern psychology is beneficial"
agrees DR.. Petit.
Every clergyman should study
psychology-he needs to understand
people who don't understand them
selves.
mo man is complete without a
religion.
"If a man has no family to help
share HIS troubles and understand
them, and no church-he is simply
not taking advantage of the oppo-
tunities lying at hand"
Referring to his last Sundays SER
mon, in which he prayed for under
standing in the hearts of the judges

be sustained, but they will become

Though open confession is said
to be good for the soul, though
some creeds hold to this belief, not
an communicates avail themselves
OF this great spiritual privilege,
saws DR.. J.. Meryin Petit, rector Of
the Church of st. John the Evan
gelist in New Brunswick. DR.. Petit
is the successor to the late DR..
Edward w. Hall, murdered with
Mrs Eleanor Mills, choir singer.
SIT is a conviction Of mine"
DR.. Petit said, THAT confession
is good. I've seen it, oh, so many
times. That conviction is bred OF
experience.
Now. in the Episcopal Church,
we have the same belief in con-
6ession that the Roman Catholic
holds The sacramentaI privilege
is called penance. Every member
of our church has the privilege,
and he may. confess only to q
priest OF the church.

sit depends on the parish. In
some places you'll find they want
to confess. In other locations
they don't want to at ALL"
''Has this willingness to loosen
the bonds of pride and reveal self
any connection with the wealth or
poverty of parish?"
The tall, kindly rector Of st.
Johns ponders over the question.
He finally answers:
well, mo. Rich or poor-that
really doesn't enter into it."
DR.. Petit, Episcopal clergyman,
agrees with DR.. Carl Jung, of
Vienna, noted psycho-analyst, who
said on one occasion of his recent
visit to America that the Roman
Catholic who believes in confession
rarely suffers from psychoses, the
complex" or split personality, since
he frees his soul from sin and doubt

Superintendent
OF Children's Home
Speaker at Lions

Cheney 3. Jones of Boston, super
intendent of the New England Home
for Little Wanderers, speaking be-
fore the Waterville Lions Club at
it's regular meeting at the ElmWood
Hotel last evening, urged in force
full terms that his hearers adopt for
the future the slogan, "Better citi-
zens and fewer laws" He pointed
out that in the United States at the
present time there are some 2o0, 900
under privileged children and one
of the best ways to erase crime was
to see that such children should
have proper and kindly care. At
the opening of his talk Mr.. Jones
said that he had first become ac-
quainted with Lions through the
work they did in lending a helping
hand to unfortunate boys and girls.
The aim of the organization of
which he is the head, Mr.. Jones de-
clared, was to maintain around New
England at strategic points service
stations" for children so that those
who have been met with misfortune
may have a chance and the oppor-
tunity to be properly understood.
The speaker told of a number of
cases of his personal observation
which were of much interest and he
said that intelligence, patience and
resourcefulness We're requisites in
the work in which he was engaged.
The directors of the local branch
of the Home for Little Wanderers
were guests at the meeting.

LARGE AUDIENCE
ENJOYS MUSICAL
MAY FESTIVAL

The May festival Of the musical or
CARNATIONS of the Waterville Senior
High school was held in the City OPP
era House last evening before large
audience which thoroughly enjoyed the
entertainment and which manifested a
hearty support for the school band
and orchestra. Under the able direc-
ton of Mrs. II. C. Marden, director of
music in the Waterville schools, the
students had put much work into the
affair and when they go to Boston Fri
day morning to participate in teh an
nual New England conclave of music
the people at home will be put little
surprised if they return prize winners,
as they were year ago.
The first selection on the program
was the Bunker HIP march, which
the band will play ON the Boston Com
mon during the two days it is in that
city. This was followed by the "Broc-
tonian March," another piece to be
played in Boston.
The glee club of the South Grammar
school, made up of pupils Of the fifth
and sixth grades, added considerably
to the evening when they sang 1.-THE
Dream" in a way which could hardly
be bettered. A violin solo by Francis
Smith of the high school was much ap-
preciated. as was dance, 1.-THE Waltz
ing Doll" skillfully done by Christine
McPhee and Marie Reynolds.
The orchestra of the fourth grade of
the North Grammar school made up
the youngest performers on the pro-
gram and it played an enjoyable selec-
ton. A trombone solo by Linwood
Brown of the band was heartily ap-
plauded. Next was heard one Of the
selections which is to be played in the
Boston Arena by the orchestra, Mig
nonette," part of which is to be rem
dered by all the orchestras at the con-
clave in unison.
Following the intermission the jun
ior. high school orchestra played the
selection Maria" in a manner which
rivalled that Of the senior high school
organization. The latest dance num-
bers were played by the purple and
white orchestra.
The solo ITO Spring" sung by Miss
Elizabeth Walker, daughter of Rev.
and Mrs. F. S. Walker, proved a hit of
the evening. It was Miss Walker
first appearance before Waterville
audience.
The program was Chased by the
playing of America" by both the band
and orchestra.

Universalist
Pastor Speaker
| At Textile Meeting

y Rev. Roderick ]. Mooney, pastor of
the Universalist church in Fairfield,
was the speaker at the meeting Of the
Central Maine Textile Association held
in Modern Woodman hall last evening.
Mr.. Mooney was of the impression
that there was altogether too much of
pessimism in the land today and espe-
cially was this true Of New England.
But, he added, the time was soon COM
ing when this would disappear and
people would look to the future in a
more optomistic frame of mind. An
other flaw which Mr.. Mooney found
with the present order was the great
number of "windbags" and corner
politicians" and he urged less talk
and more work.
An enjoyable musical program was
furnished by tie Coburn Minstrels un-
der the direction of Dyke L. Quacken-
bush. The Chisholm brothers. Ted and
Lee, were much in the spotlight and
they opened the program with two vo-
cal selections. Brainard Hardy enter
tanned with a reading, while Reginald
Rood provided a riotous eccentric
dance. Next WAS a cornet solo by Ted
Chisholm and a piano duet by Harold
Cove and Myrtle Sullivan. Lee CHS
holm then danced clog and Charles
ton, all most adeptly. The program
was concluded by three solos by Mr..
Quackenbush and rousing chorus by
the Coburn company.
A supper was served by the Odd La
dies. Those who made up the kitchen
committee were Edna Merrill. Blanche
Simpson, Addie Murray, Mrs. Roscoe
Alley, Grace Staples and Marjorie
Meader. Those on the dining room
committee were leila Dearborn, Ethel
Simpson, Mary Reed, Olive Bowker,
Blanche Stanley. Anna Lampher and
Ethel Harding.
