HARVEST FESTIVAL SERVICES.

DISTRICT SERVICES.

Already these annual services of thanksgiving have

taken place in Hacknahay, Carne, Bocombra,

Levaghery, Drumgor, and as we go to Press preparations

are being made to hold one in the Parochial Hall,

Edenderry. As usual, the halls were all tastefully

decorated by the Sunday School teachers concerned,

and the outstanding feature this year is the fact that

in the majority of these Halls the collection for the

South American Missionary Society showed a definite

increase on that of previous years.

We are deeply indebted to the following for so

kindly preaching at these services: —the Rev. T. E.

Beacom, B.D., and the Rev. G. A. Boulger, M.A., at

Hacknahay; the Rev. G. W. Millington, M.A., and

the Rev. G. F. G. Mann, M.A., at Carne; the Rev.

J. F. O. Williams, B.A., and the Rev. J. Simmons,

B.A., at Bocombra; the Rev. A. V. M'Callin, B.D.,

and the Rev. H. A. Lillie, B.A., at Drumgor; the

Rev. A. N. Parkinson, M.A., and the Rev. G. Long,

B.A., at Levaghery.

THE PARISH CHURCH.

There was a splendid attendance at the morning

service on October 20th, in spite of the very wet

morning; the preacher was the Rev. J. Hobcroft, M.A.,

rector of Tartaraghan. The evening service was so

well attended that extra seating had to be provided;

the Preacher was the Rev. H. Hughes, M.A., rector

of Moira. On Monday evening the Rev. J. Haddock,

M.A., rector of Waringstown, was the preacher. The

Rev. W. F. Hayes gave the address at the children's

service at 3.30 p.m.

We congratulate the organist and choir once again

on their superb rendering of the special music, which

included two harvest anthems and a special setting

of the Canticle "Benedicite, Omnia Opera," which

was very appropriate and effective. Miss N.

Montgomery sang the solo portion of the anthem on

the Sunday evening and also on the Monday evening,

her fine voice was heard to good effect.

We are grateful to all who sent gifts of fruit, flowers,

corn, etc., and especially to Messrs. M'Gredy for

flowers and the use of some of their decorative

baskets, which made the task of decorating much

easier. We also thank the faithful few who came

along to arrange the decorations.

"SEAGOE'S FLORAL SPITFIRE.

"A floral Spitfire, with the inscription 'Not forgetting

the boys from our School' is a feature of the harvest

decorations in Carne Church Hall, Seagoe Parish,

Portadown.

“It is about three feet long, and is made of bronze

and yellow chrysanthemums, with camouflage effects

faithfully reproduced.

"Three of Carne Sunday School boys are serving

with the R.A.F."

The above note appeared in a recent issue of the

"Belfast Evening Telegraph."

MOTHERS' UNION.

The monthly meeting took place in Seagoe School

on Thursday afternoon, October 10th, at 3.30 p.m.,

when about twenty-six members were present. It

was decided not to black-out one of the school rooms,

as had been proposed, as the cost would not justify

this, but instead to carry on as was done last winter,

on the second Thursday afternoon of each month

at 3.30 p.m. In the absence of a special speaker the

Rector gave a short address.

In another column reference is made to the splendid

contribution of £100, which has been raised by

the Mothers' Union for the New Rectory Building

Fund.

The next monthly meeting will be held in Seagoe

P.E.S. on Thursday; November 14th, at 3.30 p.m.,

when it is hoped a talk will be given by Nurse

Holland.

SEAGOE BADMINTON CLUB.

We are glad to record that the above club is again

functioning this winter, and we wish the members

a successful and happy season.

SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS’ ANNUAL MEETING

The annual meeting of Superintendents and teachers

will be held in the Parochial Hall, Edenderry, on

Friday, November 22nd, at 8 p.m., when it is hoped

that there will be representatives present from each

of the nine Sunday Schools in the parish. There will

be important matters to be discussed in connection

with this vital work in our parish.

DISTRICT SERVICES FOR NOVEMBER.

Drumgor—Sunday, Nov. 10th, at 3 p.m.

Hacknahay—Sunday, Nov. 24th, at 3.30 p.m.

OBITUARY.

We regret the passing from our midst of three

parishioners. Mrs. Armstrong had reached a good

age and the call came to her very suddenly. Maureen

Frazer was in her infancy. She has been spared the

sin, sorrow and suffering of the world. Mr. Dundas

met with a sad accident at Portadown Railway

Station. For him, too, death was instantaneous, and

he was spared suffering; he will be greatly missed

in the locality. To all the bereaved we express our

deep sympathy and pray that they may be comforted

and strengthened in their sorrow by Him who says,

“I am the resurrection and the Life."

C.L.B. NOTES.

The C.L.B. is carrying on in spite of the various

difficulties. At this time of trouble and strife the

work of our Church Lads' Brigade is more important

than ever before. As we approach another winter

of long, dark evenings, with the difficulties of the

"black-out," it is essential that our youth should

have their morale maintained. What better way is

there of doing this than through the ranks of our

own Parish organisation. The Brigade welcomes all

lads of the Parish between the ages of 9 to 13, and

13 to 21. The programme of training consists of

physical training, organised games, and it is hoped

to include this year First Aid and A.R.P. The

recreational side consists of table tennis, darts, boxing

and various other games.

The most important feature of Brigade work is

Discipline. Officers and N.C.O.'s are appointed to

maintain Discipline in all things, whether training

or games. This is of the utmost importance when

we consider that the downfall of the Continental

countries was partly due to the lack of discipline

amongst the civilian population.

We appeal to the parents to support the Brigade,

We would welcome a greater interest of the parish

in our C.L.B.

The Brigade does not (as is sometimes thought)

train lads for the Army.

The first and only object of the Church Lads'

Brigade is the Advancement of Christ's Kingdom

among boys.

Many of our lads are now serving in the Forces.

And we are rightly proud of them. We know that

their Brigade training will stand them in good stead.

We also know that they have gone out well equipped

to withstand every temptation, knowing as they do

right from wrong, and determined to maintain the

motto of the C.L.B.—Fight the Good Fight. We are

pleased to see from time to time men who have

passed through our ranks home on leave. Those now

serving in the Forces include—Walter Currie, R. A.F.

W. M'Loughlin, R.A.F., Cpl. Foster Shanks, R.A.F

Noel Johnston, R.A.F., D. Donaldson, R.A.F., Geo.

Pentland, L. Lyttle, R.I.F., Jack Bateson, R.A.F., Jos.

Simpson, R.A.F., Eric Burns, Hugh Robinson, R.A.F.

Harry Jones, R.A.F., Gerald Vaughan, Royal Navy,

Bertie Lynn, Arthur Mawhinney, H. Rocke, R.A.F.

Wm. Hamill, Jim Herron, R.A.F., Sergt. Bertie Herron,

I.G., Sam M'Cabe, R.A.F., James Whiteside, R.A.F.

Our former Company Sergt.-Major now Cpl. Foster

Shanks, R.A.F., was married during his recent leave.

Foster was a staunch supporter of the Brigade and a

very faithful member. He had joined the Brigade

at its formation over 14 years ago. He passed through

the Junior Training Corps and after entering the

Senior ranks was quickly marked out for promotion.

He was a most efficient N.C.O., and always set an

excellent example to the younger boys. He also

attended the Officers Training Course at Harrow and

secured a first-class report. Each member of our

Company wishes him every happiness. We were very

pleased to learn that his Commanding Officer was

also a former C.L.B. man. — (E.M.)

NEW RECTORY BUILDING FUND.

The Hon. Treasurer for the above gratefully ac-

knowledges the receipt of the following subscriptions: —

Mr. T. H. Walker, Kernan 1 0 0

Mr. D. Kane, Ballymacrandle 0 5 0

Mrs. S. Guy, Derryvore 0 5 0

Mr. B. Kilpatrick, Lower Seagoe 0 5 0

Mr. T. H. Gordon, Ballinacor 0 2 6

Mr. Wm. Simpson, Carne 0 2 0

Mr. G. Connolly, Carne 0 3 0

2 2 6

During the past month the Hon. Treasurer sent a

cheque for £180 to the Representative Church Body

to reduce the loan outstanding on the new rectory,

which means that our debt to them now stands at

£820 instead of £1,000, the original sum borrowed.

The sum paid off was obtained thus: - Mother’s

Union contribution £100, and £80 being the balance

in the Building Fund account received from subscriptions

after paying the half-yearly instalments, etc., due up to

date. The members of the Mothers' Union are to be

congratulated on realising such a substantial sum as a

result of their efforts.
