Tno imenneut took place on Saturday in St.^ Afary's Cemetery.

His loss to the AA'esleyaii Mel'nod'st cause will be severe. He held praciieally every office in connection with both church and school, and Had filled res­ ponsible positions in the circuit. Prior to the cortege leaving the village,

‘ SHOULD SUAiDAY SCHOOLS BE DONE AWAY W IT H ? ”


■fo the Editor of the Clithcroc .-Advortiser. Deaw Sir,—In rcplv to the abuve question


thousands ot people could answer, "No, b--causo iiotHing so good can be put in tlieir place, not even '■fresh air”; for tiie dcse- eration ol Sunday by motor car, motor cycle and brakes has ntade tills almost impossible «loug our country roads. The clouds of in­ jurious dust U anyriiing bur a pleasant or healthy quality even to those who, instead of 'attending churcli, cliapel, or .Smiday ■diool, seek recreation in tlie open. aAJso


our one-time quiet villages are frequently polluted by unclean and blasphemous oaths which make decent people shudder. One ^reat reason why the bundny schools should not bo done away with is because tlic name * of God has been surrendered in many day ■sdiools and only at the Sunday schooE do tihousands of children hear the holy name mentioned with reverence. But why this vindictive outburst against “A Sunday School leach ef who lias the courage to e.xpress a desire for die preservation of the Sabbath, and to feel grateful for fine pro­ cessional weather? Ihe mention ol line weatlier lor thiv-


teen jubilees at Halifax are evidently facts, Many would regard these facts as mere happy coincidence, but if “.A Sunday School Teacher” believes them to be Divine favours why bring the charge of '■iiarrow-minded- iiess" and of being “silly” and “we.ak-kneed” ill argument? I should judge this teacher ■to be a good citizen, a faithful Christum and an intelligent instructor of the young. Had 1 'any children to attend Sunday school 1 should not fear for them to be taught by one like “.A Sunday School! Teacher” who has a strong iaith, and is broad-minded enough to believe in a Christian Sabbath, ’n the power of prayer, and in gratitude to the Almighty if convinced Divine favours have been given. I did not see the Clitheroe processions but was told they were very pretty sights. AVhy not have the next in clogs and shawE, and so escape the dis­ pleasure of some of the CUtheroe people regard them as vanity and pride, and


milliner)- displays. Personally I prefer nice 'looking clothes, whether for racecourse at­ tendance or Sunday school processions, ihey arc more pleasing to the eye. To look best, and do your best, and b’e'ieve the best, should receive commendation, not contempt. Long live Sunday schools and teachers and such fidelity as your corres­ pondent, “A Sunday School Teacher.” Yours faithfully,

SA BDEN BAP.TIST S TA LW A R T ’S DEATH.


The death of one uf Sabden’s most high


ly respected inhabitants, in the person oE Mr. Robert Shaw, took place at his home, 23, Padiham road, yesterday week. His death, at the age of 57, was not unexpect­ ed, because for a considerable time he has been a great sufferer. Mr. Shaw was a native of Darwen, but went to Sabden, a young man, about 34 years ago as a roller coyerer at Messrs. .Stuttard and Sons Vic­ toria Spinning Mill', whidh position he has fill^ ever since. Mr. Shaw had not been residing in the village long before he be­ came ckxsely associated with’ the Baptist cause, and along with Mas. Shaw was made a member 30 years ago. Straight away he began to teach a class in the Sunday ^ o o l and became a eealous -worker. ■ Not only in the chapel and Sunday school was be known to be a (ihnstian, but outside, in the street, and in the mill. In eveiy way


possible to aim "lie wem .dx-ui doing gooa” and nuiny are ih< homes that will miss Jiis oheeriiig visits. By his deatn the'Bapllst cause at Sabden has lost one of ita stal­ warts. -Vor were Afr. Shaw’s labours co*- liiied to Sabdeii. For twu vears every Sux- day, winter and summer, he, along with Air. John Wood, now; at .Fleetwood, walked o\ei .leiidic Hill to Clitheroe in order to help , the B.aptist cause here. .As a churcfc official at Sabden he had eleven years’ e.'t- penence, being appointed deacon in 1902' under ■ the ministry of -the Rev. A. H. W'est. He was also a member of the com­ mittee for the new ciiapel, and h i valuable senices were rccognbi^ij. when, at the open­ ing ceremony, he was askeij to ui'Iock one of the chapel doors. He was one of Sab­ den s great temperance men, and Bands t j Hope or any temperance meetings were ai- wavs sure of a speaker or cliairman in Mr. Shaw. He leaves aWidoiv, two sons', and ■three daughters. One of his daughters, -Iis. Astiey, of Fall River, .only c.ame ovef a lortnight ago to see her father. By his death, a home, a village, and ch.apel 'and


.Sunday school have been bereft of a One Christian character. The intcmient took place .uii Saturday .ii-


temooii in the Baptist Chapel burial ground. .A service W'as conducted at tfie home by the pastor. Rev. J. G. Thomas. -As the cortege ieit the house and wended its mournful way to the Baptist Chapel, the route was w-ell lined with sympathEing vil- a^ers. ihe chapel was draped in mourn­


ing, and a large gathering was present lo witness tlie funeral service most effectively conducted by the Rev. J G. Thom.a.s, who spoke comforting words to the bereaved, file body was then borne to its last rest- mg place in the graveyard, and after the Rev. J. G. Thomas had read tlie committal passages the coffin was lowered into die grave. A large assembly was present.


Golf J o t t in g s . Ihe match at Great H.invood resulted


in an easy win for tiie home team by i) games to I, the solitary victory being gained by D. Lister. The return game will be played at Clitheroe, next Saturday, and tliere_ are several members of the" team thirsting for. revenge.
