Cod had ordained that every young man up to the age of 20 sbouTd be trained, and was it not very remarkable that the Germans carried out that command to tile very leuer.

rilurial training in camp has now been settled, and will comprise company, bat lalion, and batiery training for the first "eek and the early .part of the second "'eek. 'The last few days will be devoted to tactical exercises between the two camps much on the same lines as those which took place at Salisbury Plain last year, Doubtless there will be a good deal of riv ’■Iry between the two brigade cottunanderS; uid We may expect the men to display the


same enthusiasm that they did on Wltshire Dow-ns. The operations this year will be of a different character, because the troops toll be moving in more enclosed country this should give the specialists more scope ^nd signallers and scouts should be able get in a good deal of practice. Saturday


toll be a full day in camp, as the various "mts return home on Simday, thus com­ pleting the full term of thrir training. It ■s hoped that a larger percentage of men toll be able to stay the fuU period than the case last year, and certainly the

i>t. James’s and the Coronation Festivities.


Fioui the May issue of the "St. J amass


Parish Magazine." “The Coronation festivities are upon us.


A general town's eommiilce has beai formed to arrange them. At the first meeting of this eouiuiillee— before the churches and schools were represeated on it—it was deoded that there be a public field. The Qiurclres and Sunday schools arc spiritual organisations. Their mission is spiritual. They should labour for the spiritual good of their members, and are expected to avoid anything which militates against that spir­ itual good, and to promote anything which would contribute to the spiritual good ot their members. Every place of worship has its own manner of worship; every Sunday school its own method of manage- meiii. -Vo two will be found exactly alike. Each has a right to manage its own busi- ne.ss. Nn I'oinmittee has any right to in­ terfere with that privilege. “It is .an unwritten law of St. James’s


that we do not join in the practices which obtain on a public field. It may be asked—■ Why do we object? W., have many rea­ sons. They may not appeal to all. They do 10 many. They appeal to us.


IVc


object to the dancing, drinking, rough play, and other things which take place on a public field as not contributing to thfe moral or spiritual well-being of the members of the Churches. Our greatest objection, however, -s to the unwholesome, regrettable results which invariably follow promiscuous gatherings of this kind— re­ sults which cannot very well be enumerated in print. “ It is a (inestion whetlier, as a Christian


(Yimmuniiy, with Christian responribilities, we should lead our young people into the sphere of temptation suggested. It may be argued that whethej w. lead them or ixit, some will go. It may be that some, not- with.standing tbe light they may have as *0


the inconsistency of the act, may be induced to do so. In their case we are freed from esponsibility. If we led them into this


sphere we should feel ourselves morally responsible for any lapse. Our resolve is—■ give our young people as clean an en-


vironnaent as possible, and—leave the rest to God.


“In the 1 'T :;>:r report of the pro- icdi'i j of the Coronation Committee


there were at least three indications tfi*t the committee most not touch any school or anyoi e with a privilege. “The first arose on the question of a


ballot for position in tbe procession, wbes the committee was told there was one sdiool llial would not tolerate a ballot. The second was when it was indicated that a certain school had decided to walk lust. The third was in connection with the Committeefs resolution for a three days holiday, which was against the rights of the masters. “There is a real right or privilege which


we maintain all the schools possess in com­ mon—-the right to manage their own busi­ ness and to make heir own arrangeroents. This is all we arc contendiDg for. “If any .school prefers a public field, lot


it go to it. On tbe other hand, if any sch<»l prefers a private, field let that right recognised, withoot anj penalty, either money or ill-will being attached to it. is not a privilege which any committee can grant or withhold.

Mr. Bradley has provided a programme


of pictures and variety this week, which has met with tbe approval of the audiences every night. The four Kings are versatile juvenile performers, and they have been recalled each n i^ t . Their dandng is very clever, and it is undoubtedly one of the best, turns presented in (31itteroe. Last night, there was a complete change of pictures, and they were all very interesting. “Fisher folk,” and “A life for a life,” are splendidly portrayed subjects, and the most notable comic films are “They would Have the harem-scarem skirt.” and "The short sighted cyclist.”

stores met a good trade, and made good prices at from ^ 8 10s. to ;£ 12' 10s. for strong stores; smaller sorts,


It is an inalienaHlc privilege which every school already pos­


sesses. “There are many who, like ourMlves,


have scrupulous objections to appearing on such a field. Why should these be com pelled to go to suah a field? or be penaBsed if they do not go Tbe one way out of t te difficulty 'in future is to recognise tbe right of cadi school lo make its own arrange­ ments with regard to the field. Such a conise would give mfinitely more satisl ac­ tion to all the ifebools, and leave privil­


ege untouched. “In conclusion, may we suggest to <mr


own peope that they consider this questioii calmly and prayerfully, and for the sake of


their children, their own comfort, the of Crnl's work in their Church, Sunday school, ;iii'l parish, not to be led ^ r a y by those who have not the interests of our ehurch at heart, and at«ve aU to give us their undivided support in helpir^ us, and not in hindering us, in maintaitiing the .stand we have taken up. Do not be in tiraidated by scoffs and jeers. Peopde may be laughed into hell; they cannot be laughed out of it. As we value the Gospel


of leading anyone into an en-vironment of temptation.”

Correspondence. - D -


To the Editor of the Clitheroe Advertiser. Sir,—In last week's “Advertiser,” you


reported an application to the Coronation Conunittoe, by the Rev. R. Railton, for the provision of a separate field for St. Jam ^ s . The committee rightly refused to make this distinct provision, but, 1 under stand, they agreed to make a grant towards the cost of tea to .lach child at the same ratio as that for all otlier scholars. If Mr. Railton wants a separate field, he has a perfect right to make his wishes known, but, as he cannot see his way to allow his scholars to mingle with the others at play, he ought not to grumble at paying for the same.


I mention tlvis Irecause 1 have seen a


printed letter which has been circulated amongst certain members of the congrega tion. It bears no signature, and in larger type, printed on the topj. is the word ‘private.” As this is a matter affecting


Hhe whole town, I wish to enter a protest against the manner in which the author or authors, of this letter have gone out of their way to offer a gratuitous insult to eveiy de nomintion in the town, not even excepting

Clitheroe Auction Mart. MONDAY.—There was a good supply of


the congregation to which they apparently I steady trade at the following prices: Ewes belong. It is as follows:


“We object to the dancing, drinking, shearlings, 2Ts. 3d. to 44s; and clipped rough play, and other things which talce | sheep, ^ s . to 35s. 3d ; lamte, 31s. to 4 6 s ;


place on a public field as not contribut­ ing to the moral or spiritual well-being of the members of the Churches.., Our greatest objection, however, is to the un­ wholesome, regrettable results which in­ variably follow promiscuous gatherings of this kind— results which cannot very well be enumerated in print.


“It is not a question of associating


or not associating with other Sunday schools. We could associate without qualms of conscience; but we could not identify ourselves with that which goes on on a public field.


“It is a question whether, as a Christ­


ian community, with Christian respons­ ibilities, we should lead our young people into the sphere of temptation suggested. It may be argued that whether we lead them or not, some will go. It may be that some, notwithstanding the liglit they may have as to the inconsistency of the act, may be induced to do so. In their case we are freed from responsibility. If we led them into this sphere we should ourselves be morally responsible for any lapse.


“Our. resolve is—to give the young


people as clean an envirorunent as pos­ sible, and—leave the rest to God.”


That part of the first paragraph relating


to drinking on a public field, when applied to an occasion like tl.is, is an unmitigated prevarication. The remainder of the para­ graph is enough to make anyone blush for very shame for the perpetration of such" a foul, offensive statement. Outsiders must think we are a weary lot.
