we all send our chil dren to Sunday Schooli In churchs own admission we repre scnf fastgrowing class An outstanding Canadian writer Robert Thomas Allen recently made this comment What is your reaction to this At least it is honest But is this the best atmosphere in which to bring up children Who does this father think he is fooling Cer tainly not any bright youngster If by any chance you belong in this fastgrowing class of dis interested church folk what does your nonallcndance say to your child Does your example not shout to him much louder than any words Religion is kid stuff and we have no time for it You along to Sunday School We and When all goes well many pea plc seem to get along fairly hap pily and successfully without the church But what happens when trouble real sorrow strikes If the life of that son or daughter of yours was to be snuffed out today by some horrible accident or sudden illness to whom would you turn No matter how casual you had been about your church would you not want religious funeral service The churchs teaching about im mortality about life after death might fall on cars deafened by grief But what parent would choose to have the little body bur ied with no prayer said over the grave Is it not rather shabby to use the church in the hour of darkness but ignore it in the days of sunshine How much an adult misses who has Wt time for church Realiza tion of the value of church con nectian to home is not made by gathering around as family and king at the church from the side land criticizing its weak es with clever phrases and halftruths Many mother or dad who has drifted away from the church has started to attend church again reg ularly because son or daughter wants to go to Junior congrega tion Then almost to their sur an 111 with 5m or 111mm mm

constructive to fur2 ther peace and the Kingdom oft God on earth man whose ownt boy is entering adolescence finds satisfaction in wliolehcartcdly backing the Scoutmuster and in be coming Sunday School leached Still another thoughtful parent supports the Christian church be cause he sees in it the greatest force opposing the growth of Com munism which threatens our dem ocratic way of life today The founder of Christianity As his custom was he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day Jesus knew the uselessness of ha1fhcarfcd allegiance He saith bluntly He who is not for me is against me Fathers and mo thers can you answer that chall enge Where do you stand as parent for or against the church the body of Christ on earth The future of your country of your children and your childrens children may well depend on your answer You will never regret giving your time and energy and money to the church of your choice It is not just place to send your youngsters to Sunday School You need the

Burkholder took the view that oversight such as required in cemetery financing links in with the thought of the heritage handed down to us in Canada especially by our pioneer ancestors and that we should take it is solemn trust to keep up the tradition and so leave that heritage intact and built Mrfand Mrs Harry Todd were irr lhe city on Thursday Skating Party The young people of Churchill and
