The Rev Pinkney Corsca, rector
of Old St Anne's at Middletown,
preached the sermon and told the
vestrymen and Wardens that they
were the legal representative
custOdians of all parish proprties
and that theirs was a duty not to
be taken lightly as the entire flu

hands. Mr.. Horace Ridings, the
new Junior Warden, read the
litany.
Following the ceremonies, the
Warden and vestrymen were en-
tertained at the home of Rev. and

portunity of meeting the Rev.

When Christianity was making
its initial impact upon the think
ing of the world, the acceptance
of its truths was appreciably re-
tarded by the acceptance of
myths, myths about gods and half
gods so fantastic that one marvels
that they were believed in at all.
One Of these centered in a pro-
tege of the goddess Venus, a sculp
tor named PygmaliOn. His skilled
fingers fashioned a statue of a
woman SO entrancingly beautiful
that he fell passionately in love
with it himself and prayed to We
nus that it might live His prayer
was answered. One day, as his
hands passed caressingly over
the form he had created, it grew
warm under his touch. Closed eyes
opened; silent lips spoke; the
statue lived and Pygmalion called
her "Galates

feet first walked our eastern
shore. A doughty group they were
these Puritans. 1t is easy to
think of them at this time for on
the coming Monday, December II,
it will be just 341 years since they
landed at Plymouth Rock. Their
leader was William Bradford and
for thirty-One years he was gov
ernOr of the colony they eStab-
lished. A statue in his memory
stands proudly at the place of his
labors and of his death.
And now, in a moment of fancy,
let us imagine that this statue,
like the one of Galatea, might sud
denly come to life and stride across
the years from his time to ours.

looks very strange TO US in his
Pilgrim clothes and, no doubt, we
look equally strange to him.
The dusk of evening has come
as he steps across our threshold.
He sees a little plastic button be-
side the door and asks, What is
that?" You direct him to press it.
He does and is astounded to find
the room instantly flooded with
light What a contrast to the
flickering candles he and his peo-
pie were accustomed to carry!

to be written for our learning.
Not for our mere reading of them

ANOTHER REVERE TEAPOT

BOSTON (AP) = Nobody knows
what happened to Paul Revere's
teapot-the one he was holding
when artist John Singleton Copley
painted his portrait.
But the Boston Museum of Fine
Arts now has acquired a teapot
closely resembling it made by the
silversmith-patriot long ago. 1t was
bequeathed to the museum by a
Massachusetts woman whose fam
lily owned the teapot nearly two
centuries.
Museum director Perry Rath-
bone said, this teapot is not the
teapot in the portrait, because its
cover ornamentation is slightly diff
ferent, but it is closer to it than
has ever come to light to date
The museum possesses the largest
existing collection of Revere silver.
