CHILDREN WILL
PRESENT PLAY
Thirty boy* and girls wil render a
little play on Sunday night at St.
Saviour's Church, beginning at ".SO.
The play is called "The Little Pil
grims and the Hook Beloved:" and is
a dramatic representation of. children
from tl?e Land of Darkness in search
of the Light. In their wanderings
they are found by Christopher and di
rected to Mother Church where their
search is rewarded and satisfied.
They are there instructed in the
Faith by the various teaching agen
cies of the church and initiated into
its Mysteries. The play sets forth
the meaning and use of the different
offices of the Church and the power
ful use she makes of the Book of
Common Prayer. Each person repre
sents the contribution of an office to
the Book. When all have been made
then the Church's Book-Binder binds
them together into one book. Then
Mother Church takes the Book-Be
loved and with her children, goes out
to take the world for Christ.
