No Drinks During Sermon,

AFC CIibh0 G0AtHS 0CE%1iOBs
Two sharply contrasting rural pictnr,
and a new problem for the country
clergy were presented to me last night
in this Cambridgesbire village, where
two Congregations attended Divine
service one In All Saints Church and
the other in the Black Bull, the village
inn.
Long Stanton is a I place Of orchards and
cOrntields about Z miles from the UniVer-
sity town. 1t boasts but 420 inL abb
tants. Some four months ago Mr..
Lawrence Jakes, the landlord of the
Black Bull, installed a 3 valve wireless
set in his hostel, 1t was merely the act
Of an enterprising landlord to entertain
his customers.
But on the Sunday nights interest
soon centred in the broadcast evening
service, and this was proved the mos
popular religious move among the labour-
ers for many a year.
1t is VIGOROUSLY difficult in the cOun-
try to get the labourers to attend church
after they have reached working age.
1t is not that Long Stanton has an
inaccessible church or one without at
t~ractiveness. 1t has two churches, both
of great aesthetic and historic charm.
The thatched st. Michael's was built in
1890, while All Saints has numerous re-
lies Of d former church which was burnt
down in 1349.
Morning service is held at each alter
nately, and the evening service always
is at All Saints
The Black Bull Inn is near both and
its broadcast service is the latest relI-
gious experience OF a village chat once
contained a palace of the Bishops Of
Eiv and saw Queen Elizabeth enter
tained in it.
The vicar, the Rev. Horace Bernard
WooIIey, is not the man to bear any i'll

| visited him in his church after the
hour long evening service, which near
ly so people attended, that he has about

men will come to realise that it is not

To provide real enjoyment these

side and a good book are hard TO
beat. I've spent the last couple OF
evenings just that way--and last
night I was surprised to find the
youngsters doing the same thing.
They enjoy books so much-both
new and old-haye, in fact. their
own library. I think it's a splendid
idea Of Grace's-letting them have
their own-thus encouraging pride
of ownership as well as stimulating
appreciation OF good literature. An
ideal companion for every child Is
his own library. which he may build
gradually, so that it comprises his
favorite authors and favorite tales.

Dek.QhtfML Tour

Last Saturday was bright and
sunshiny-and Grace and I chose the
afternoon for our party to entertain
several visitors to the Alamo CITY
during the Yuletide season. Twelve
OF us took the splendid trip offered
by the White Sightseeing bus-a
three-hour tour which included stops
at the missions and all the other in.
teresting points about San Antonio
The guide was particularly well
equipped to give us the history of
every important point-the after
noon was lovely-and the bus was
so easy-riding-so comfortable-that
we had a most delightful time. Not
only the visitors, but we San An
tonians. as well. thoroughly enjoyed
the trip.
The White Sightseeing bus makes
trips twice daily, leaving Alamo
Plaza at 10:1 each morning and
2:15 each afternoon-providing a de-
lightful outing-a means Of getting
better acquainted with our own city,
in a most enjoyable way.

dinner, a repast of the most tempt

ever-not only do the players pro-

as well-so that whether you're
dancing or just listening. the music
is equally delightful. And Of course.
we saw all our friends at the Gun
ter party-one always does-that's
where friends meet.
The supper dances being held
three evenings each week at the
Gunter featuring this same splendid
orchestra, Earl Burtnett's. are most
delightful affairs - small wonder
they are fast becoming the mecca
for pleasure loving San Antonio!
