December 1907 - January 1908 Notes
C.P.A.S.
The claims of the Church Pastoral Aid Society, which has the honour of being first in the field of all the Home Missionary Societies, were brought before the congregations of our two Churches on Sunday December 8th, and again at St. Aidan’s Parish Church on Wednesday December 11th, when the Rev. A. Victor Jones M.A. Association Secretary for this diocese, advocated the cause of the Society and earnestly commended it to the earnest and liberal support of Church people. The vicar in the course of his sermon on the Sunday evening, said that the Church had to deal with grave problems, but the greatest of these he considered to be the Home Mission problem, which lies close to her hand in the overgrown populations in the poorer parts of our great cities where we find people living in close alleys and filthy slums, and where the hungry, the wretched, the lost, the outcasts are found in thousands. He expressed the earnest hope that the Church would rise to her responsibilities and shoulder the burden of the weaker brother whose keeper she is. No doubt, educational, social, political and labour movements have all had their parts to play, and a very important part to take in this matter, but he maintained that it will require the medicine of the Gospel of Christ before these terrible wounds can be healed. He therefore urged Christian people to assist more generously Home Missionary work not only by their gifts but by giving themselves to the work. The following report of the contributions so far received: - Subscriptions
Sewing Guild
The Secretary of the Sewing Guild wishes to tender her best thanks to the following members who have so kindly contributed to the Guild:- Mrs. and Miss Allison, Mrs. Brooks, Mrs. and Miss Chappell, Miss Dennis, Mrs. Eeet, Mrs. Featherstone. Mrs. Gill. Miss Potter, Mrs. Salmon, Mrs. Wharton, Mrs. Watson, Mrs. Young.
New Year's Day
The usual Christmas treat for the children of the Lingdale Sunday School will be held on New Years Day. A public Christmas Tree will be opened at 2 o’clock p.m. There will also be a public tea for parents and friends at 5 p.m. Tickets 6d. The Margrove Park children will have their treat on the same day, but it has been arranged that the Boosbeck children shall have their festivities on Boxing Day.
Men's Service
The next men’s service will, D.V., be held at St. Aidan’s Parish Church on Sunday January 19th at 3 p.m.
Ruri-Diaconal Sunday School Association
Holy Communion Service for our Sunday School teachers will be held at St. Aidan’s Parish Church on Wednesday January 15th, at 8 a.m. We earnestly hope that many of our teachers, if not all, will be able to attend the Annual Service to be held at St Hilda’s Parish Church, Middlesbrough, on the evening of the same day at 8 p.m. The preacher will be the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Beverley.
Binding
Persons wishing to have their magazines bound for a shilling should send them to the Vicarage on or before Thursday, January 16th. For terms &c see Skelton. Notes.

January Notes 1908
Sunday School Treats
The Children of the Boosbeck Sunday School had their Christmas treat on December 26th, when they were provided not only with a sumptuous tea but spent a delightfully frolicsome evening together. The Superintendent, Mr T. Bowden and the teachers hope to be able on the next occasion to make better provision for the elder scholars than circumstances would permit this year. It is not necessary to say that Boosbeck as well as the other two schools were provided with a Christmas Tree. Both Lingdale and Margrove Park children had their Treat on New Year's Day. The Margrove Park children for the first time had their Treat in their own school, and it was a great pleasure to see how much the children enjoyed the treat provided for them. Mrs. Evans (the superintendent) and the teachers desire to express regret that the lack of accommodation would not allow them to invite the parents. It is encouraging to know that the need of increased accommodation is beginning to be felt by the workers at that end of the parish. The Children of the Lingdale Sunday School look forward to the treat New Year's Day with high hopes, and they are never disappointed. They commenced their proceedings with the opening of a Christmas Tree at 3p.m., and Mr. Prout appearing in the costume of Father Christmas gave additional interest to the opening ceremony. After tea and play there was a short entertainment given by the children, assisted by Mr. Southcombe, and selections on the Gramophone, kindly lent by Mr. Savage. At the close, the prizes given by Miss Allison (superintendent) and teachers for good conduct and attendance at church were presented by the Vicar. The prize winners were as follows - Percy Hindmarsh, Cyril Saunders, William Lightburn, George Welburn, John Johnson, Roy Saunders, Reginald Calow, George Stonehouse, Thomas Miller, Maggie Johnson, Louise Harker, Nancy Welburn, Maggie Lightburn, Edith Kingston, Ida Calow, Elsie Belton, Edith Hindmarsh, Doris Nixon. Our Sunday School Workers desire most heartily to thank all the kind friends who so willingly and generously contributed to the success of their efforts to make the festive season a happy one for our little people.
C.P.A.S.
As our contributions so far to Home Missions are some three pounds less than the amount contributed last year, the Vicar and Churchwardens have decided to give the collections at both of our churches on Sunday, February 2nd, to the Church Pastoral Aid Society, when the preacher at St. Aidan's Parish Church will be the Rev. F.A.Mann, M.A., curate of St. Hilda's Middlesbrough, and at St Mary's at 6.30 p.m. the Rev. R. Hodgson. The Vicar will conduct a children's service on the same Sunday at St. Mary's in the afternoon at 2.30.
Mens Service
The next Men's service will be held at St. Aidan's Parish Church on Sunday, February 16th, at 3.p.m., subject "Christ and Labour".
New Institute
The Committee of the Lingdale New Institute have decided to have a series of concerts in aid of the Building Fund. The object is one which should appeal to us, and we trust the effort will be generously patronised.
Ruri-diaconal Sunday School Association
We were encouraged by the presence of fifteen communicants at the early communion on the Anniversary of our Sunday School Association, and the four teachers who were able to attend the Annual Service at Middlesbrough expressed themselves as more than repaid for the special effort they had made to present.
The Yorkshire Penny Bank
The Penny Bank, which is open every Monday evening in the St. Mary's Reading Room had a prosperous year in 1907, £108 13s. 0d. was deposited during the year, and withdrawals amounted to £30 11s. 0d. leaving £78 2s. 0d. in the bank at the end of the year to the credit of 74 depositors. Mr. Jeckell and his co-workers are to be congratulated. Their work meets a public convenience and is helping forward the general good.

February Notes 1908
Mother's Meeting
By the kind permission of the authorities a Mothers’ Meeting was held in the Lingdale Old Institute on Friday February 7th at 3 p.m. Although the day was inconvenient the attendance was encouraging. Mrs. Wharton had kindly promised to address the mothers’, but owing to her unavoidable absence through the unexpected death of her niece, Mrs. Charlton, of Guisborough, most willingly and ably stepped into the breach. Mrs. Wharton, although unable to attend herself, most kindly sent us the Castle Gramophone the strains of which greatly pleased the Mothers, and also a letter to be read at the meeting, which was full of wise counsel and exhortation. All regretted Mrs. Wharton’s absence, and especially the cause which kept her away.
Sunday School Association
A meeting organized by the Ruri-Decanal Sunday School Association was held in the Boosbeck Church Room on Monday, February 10th, at 7p.m. The Rural Dean presided and read a paper written by Canon Haworth, Principal of St. Hilda’s College, Durham, the subject of which was “the Sunday School Teacher”. The paper, which was an excellent one, emphasized the importance of character. Several of our teacher took part in the discussion which followed. The Rev. B. Irvin M.A., Vicar of Saltburn and Captain Pentland were present. Previous to the meeting our teachers met at 5p.m. and partook in a social tea together. We were glad to have the Moorsholm Superintendent and teachers with us. Whilst it was the first effort of the kind, the desire was earnestly expressed that it might not be the last. All our teachers are hoping to be able to attend the meeting at Guisborough on April 1st when a model lesson will be given by Mr.A. Kelly.
C.P.A.S.
The collections on behalf of the Church Pastoral Aid Society on Sunday, February 2nd, at St. Aidan’s Parish Church, when the Rev.F.A.Mann, curate of St. Hilda’s, Middlesbrough, was the preacher, amounted to £2. 0s. 10 ½d. where Rev. Hodgson ably advocated the cause. To these sums and to those previously acknowledged we have to add a donation from Mrs. Petch, of Hobdale, 10/-, New Years Eve collection 5/8d, and the following subscriptions of the members of Ladies Home Mission Union – Mrs. Chappell 1/-, Mrs. Gill 1/-, Mrs. Thompson 1/-, Miss North 1/-, Miss Nelson 1/-, Mrs. Tindale 1/-, Mrs. Readman 1/-, Mrs. Young 1/-, Mrs. Storey 1/-, Mrs. Allison 1/-, Miss Allison 1/-, Miss White 1/-, Mrs. Knight 1/-, Miss Knight 1/-, Nurse Elliot 1/-, Mrs. Hunt 1/-, Mrs. Swainston 1/-, Mrs. G. Snowdon 1/-, Nurse Elsmore 1/-, Mrs. T. Snowdon 1/-, Mrs. Saunders 1/-, Miss Ruth White 1/-, Miss Dennis 1/-, Miss Potter 1/-, Mrs. Watson 1/-, Miss Watson 1/-, which makes our total contributions to the Society £10 17s. 5d.
Mens Service
The next service for men will D.V., be held at St. Aidan’s Parish Church on Sunday March 15th, at 3 p.m., subject “Godliness Profitable” The Anthem, “Sing Choir of Angels” will be sung by the Choir. At out last service we were favored by the help of the Lingdale Brass Band, and the attendance rose to 86. We are hoping for still greater things.
C.M.S.
The Annual sermons on behalf of the Church Missionary Society will be preached at both of our Churches on Sunday, March 22nd. The Preacher in the evening at the Parish Church will be the Rev. W. Andrews, M.A., Rector of Middleton St. George, and the Vicar will be the preacher at the evening service at St Mary’s. The annual meetings will be held at Moorsholm in the Reading Room on Monday March 23rd. at 7 p.m. and at Boosbeck on the following evening in the Church Room also at 7 p.m.. The deputation at both meetings will be the Rev. W Andrews. The Secretary, Miss Smith, and the Treasurer Mr. Sedman, will both be in the Church Room, Boosbeck from 3 to 4 o’clock p.m. on Saturday, March 21st. to receive the open boxes. We are looking forward t a successful time. Remember the Master’s command “Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”

Correction
In our C.M.S. Report for May the amount of Miss Smith's box should have been £7 0 1/2d not 7 1/2d. We regret the error.
Entertainment
We referred last month to the entertainment given by the Margrove Park Sunday School and Band of Hope Children in the Institute at Charlton's Terrace. What space would not then allow us to do we desire to do now, namely : to heartily thank the parents of our children for the interest they manifested in the effort. Our children looked like little fairies in their pretty white dresses. We are also greatly indebted to Mr. and Mrs Evans, Miss Ruddock, Mr Graham, Mr A Brooks and to all the other kind friends who so willingly gave their services. £5 5s. 3d. was the gross monetary result.
Moorsholm
A Cantata entitled " A Trip to Fairyland" was given in the Council School, on Friday May 8th, by the children of Margrove Park Sunday School. The proceeds were in aid of the Moorsholm Church Band of Hope Fund. Our best thanks are due to Mr. and Mrs. Evans of Margrove Park, and to all who took part in making the entertainment a success. Out Thanks are also due to Mrs. Dale, Mrs. Potter, Mrs. Suckling, Mrs. Liddle, Mrs. Hodgeson and Mrs Jeckell for kindly providing refreshments for the children.

Naylor, Tenor, and Mr. J Lowther, Baritone. It was undoubtebly the best concert that has been given at Boosbeck during recent years. It was a real treat. We regret that the attendance was not larger. The conductor was Mr. W.H. Boynes, and the chair was taken by Mr. A. Gray. The effort realised a net gain to the fund of £4 0s. 8d.
Temperance Demonstration
The 8th Annual United Temperance Demonstration will take place (d.v.) at Boosbeck, on Wednesday, July 8th. W.Charlton, Esq., M.E., has kindly promised to preside, and addresses will be given by the Rev. J. McKeith and Mr. Fielding, C.E.T.S. Organising secretary for Newcastle, and others. Temperance sermons will be preached in most of our places of worship in the parish on Sunday evening July 5th, and weather permitting, camp meetings will be held in the afternoon at the various strategic positions.
Sunday School Festival
Sermons on behalf of our Sunday Fund will be preached morning and evening at St. Aidan's Parish Church on Sunday, July 12th, in connection with which our Annual Flower service will be held in the afternoon at 2-30p.m. We would again ask all who present flowers to attach to their bouquet a Scriptural Text, suitable for a sick or aged person. Special hymns will be sung at all the services. This year the selection has been taken from our own hymn book. The offertories at all the services will be given to the Sunday School Fund. We have a noble band of devoted Sunday School teachers, and God's blessing is with them. Our Sunday Schools are growing and becoming increasingly efficient. We therefore, invite the congregation to show their appreciation of the work that is being done by giving it their generous support. The careful religious training of our children is a matter of vital importance. We would also earnestly invite the parents of our children to make a special effort to attend these services.
St. Mary's, Moorsholm
It is proposed to hold the Annual Flower Service at St. Mary's on Sunday afternoon, July 19th. There will be the usual service in the evening at 6.30 p.m. the sermon will be preached on behalf of the Sunday School.

The outing will take place July 1st, and it's destination is Scarborough.

June / July Notes 1908
Temperance Demonstration
The Eighth Annual Temperance Demonstration was held at Boosbeck on Wednesday, July 8th. Owing to the inclemency of the weather the procession was abandoned. Some 300 children, however, assembled in the Council Schools (kindly lent for the occasion)where they were regaled with tea and buns. The unpropitious character of the weather did not seem to in any way dampen the joyousness of their young spirits. At 6.30 p.m. all gathered in the Church Room for the public meeting. The meeting was presided over by W.Charlton. Esq., who made an excellent chairman, and the speeches of Rev. R. McKeith, Mr. Fielding C.E.T.S. organising secretary for Newcastle and councillor Jackson of Whitby, were followed with great interest. A very hearty vote of thanks was proposed to the speakers by Mr. Wotton and seconded by Mr Cawthorn. We trust the effort has done much to strengthen and stimulate temperance work in the parish. It is no time to allow our hands to hang down. A resolution in favour of the general principles of the Licensing Bill and asking for a firmer treatment of the problem of clubs was passed unanimously.
The Choir and Sunday School Teachers' Trip
The members of our two choirs and the teachers of our four Sunday Schools had their annual excursion together on July 1st. Amidst glorious weather the party left Boosbeck station at ten minutes to eight a.m. for Scarborough, where a delightful day was passed. The weather throughout the day was perfect. We desire to thank all who contributed to this pleasant outing, which is looked forward to with great pleasure by all our workers.
Sunday School Festival
Sermons on behalf of our Sunday School Fund were preached in St. Aidan's Parish Church on Sunday, July 12. The preacher at the morning service was the Rev. R. Hodgson, and the Vicar occupied the pulpit in the evening. In the afternoon the Annual Flower Service was held. Three of our Sunday Schools were represented. The Children, led by the Lingdale Brass Band, threaded their way to the Parish Church. Each Scholar carried a bunch or basket of flowers. The weather was fine so there was a large attendance, special hymns were sung. Before commencing his sermon the Rev. W. Learoyd asked each pupil to hold up his or her bunch of flowers. Special Litany for the children's flower service was used and solos were sung by Master George Allinson and Master Leslie Matson of Brotton Church Choir. The text was "They first gave themselves to the Lord". Mr Learoyd treated this very suitably for the minds of the children. After the service it was a pretty sight to see the children presenting their flowers at the communion rails. These were used to decorate the church for the evening service and then as usual sent to the sick and aged.
The following Wednesday our four schools met in the Church room at 3 o'clock, and after a short service were then led off to a field, kindly lent by Mr. Marlborough, were they spent a pleasant time playing games, etc. The strains of the Lingdale Brass Band contributed largely to the enjoyment of the children. A sumptuous tea was provided by the Sunday School teachers and various members of the congregations. The festival was one of the happiest and most successful we have yet had, and we are most grateful to all who contributed to it's success. The subscriptions, including the collections in church amounted to £8 13s. 8d.
Moorsholm
On Friday, June 26th, the Vicar, Churchwardens, Sidesmen and members of the choir, together with a few friends, met in the Councils school, Moorsholm, for the purpose of making a presentation to Mr. G. Johnson on his retirement from the position of organist after 23 years' service, and to Miss E. Johnson on her retirement from the choir. An excellent tea, supplied by Mrs. Arty, and at which Mrs. Dale and Mrs. Jeckell presided was partaken of, after which the Vicar presided and speaking of the faithful services rendered by Mr. Johnson asked him to accept a handsome marble clock as a token of the appreciation of the subscribers for his services. The clock bore the following inscription:- "Presented to George Johnson by the Vicar , Choir and a few friends in recognition of his faithful and punctual services as Sunday School Teacher and Organist of St. Mary's Church Moorsholm, from 1885 to 1908." Mr Johnson in a few well-chosen words expressed his thanks to the Vicar and subscribers, and then gave several interesting items of information in respect to the history of the parish during the twenty-three years he had held the post of organist. Messers. Potter, W. Jeckell, F. Suckling and J.Marsay also spoke of the valuable work done by Mr. Johnson. The Vicar then presented Miss E. Johnson with a gold brooch in recognition of her services in the choir and Sunday School. On behalf of the choir, Miss M.A.Hodgson spoke as to the good services rendered by Miss Johnson during the number of years she had been a member of the choir and Sunday School Teacher. Miss Johnson suitably thanked the subscribers for their gift. During the evening songs were sung by the members of the choir and Mr. T. Bowden.

August Notes 1908
Flower Service
The Annual Flower Service was held at St. Mary's Moorsholm, on Sunday afternoon, July 19th at 2.45 p.m. Some lovely bouquets were presented by the children, which were used for decorating the church for the evening service and afterwards sent to the sick and aged in the village. It is encouraging to witness the eagerness of our little people to work in this noble cause of love, sympathy and unselfishness. It is one of the many ways by which we are seeking to train them to live for the good of others. The attendance was not quite so large as usual, owing no doubt to the funeral of Mr. Shaw, which followed immediately after the service and which was very largely attended. The Rev.A.F.Ealand, M.A., a former curate of Skelton and in charge of the district which included Moorsholm, and who for the last seven years has laboured in India under the auspices of the Church Missionary Society, was the preacher in the evening, when there was a large congregation, the church was well filled. Special hymns were sung at both services and the choir rendered the musical part of the services most creditably. The collections in aid of the Sunday School Fund.
St. Aidan's
The Rev. A.F. Ealand occupied the pulpit at the parish church on Sunday evening, 26th July, when he brought before the congregation the claims of Educational Missions. Mr Ealand, who is an Educational missionary and Master of one of our Christian Schools in India, claimed that educational work is on of the most effective evangelistic agencies, and ought therefore to have a larger place in our prayers than it has, and to receive more generous monetary support. Those who are contending for a Christian education for our children at home, ought not to find it very different to admit this claim. What is good for our children at home is good for the children of other lands. Many of us were glad to receive a visit from Mr. Ealand, and to have the opportunity of listening to his earnest words. He hopes to return to India again very shortly. Let us devoutly pray that God's presence will go with him, and richly bless and prosper him in his grand work and labour of love.

A service for the members of the Mother's Union will be held at St. Aidan's Parish Church, on Sunday afternoon, September 20th, at 3 o'clock. During the service, which will last one hour, our organist, Miss Nelson, has kindly promised to give us an Organ recital, and in addition we are hoping that a solo will also be sung. The service will be short and bright, and we trust spiritually helpful, and an earnest request is made that all the members will make a special effort to be present and if possible bring their husbands with them.
Lingdale New Mission Room
We hope before this issue of the magazine is in the hands of our readers, a meeting of the members of the congregation will have been called, and definite steps decided upon as to the ways and means to be adopted whereby the money required for the building of the New Mission Room at Lingdale may be raised. The need of a room at Lingdale cannot be denied. It has a population of 2,300 and the Sunday School which commenced a few years ago in a cottage has grown into a school of over 130 scholars, and yet we are without a room of any kind of our own, in which services may be held either for adults or children. The need is really an urgent one, and we trust the congregation will realise that the time has now come when a forward movement ought to be made or the work will be seriously be hindered. The present position is as follows: W.H.A.Wharton, Esq., has granted us a site between Lingdale and Springfield at a nominal rent, and the Diocesan Society is therfore giving us a loan of £150, two thirds of which has to be repaid within three years. The Society is therefore giving us £50 towards our scheme. We trust the generosity of the Diocesan Society will call forth the enthusiastic support of the whole congregation, so that our enterprise may speedily be brought to a successful issue. It is estimated that the building will cost some £220.

Sunday School Association
The Sunday School Association for the deanery of Middlesbrough held a meeting in the Boosbeck Church Room on Monday November 2nd. at 7 p.m. when a model lesson on the Bible was given by Mr. Kelly to about 20 children. The lecturer first brought the main ideas of his lesson into touch with what the children already knew, and from that natural point of contact began to build up their knowledge. This was the outstanding feature of his method with which he associated the use of vivid and interesting stories. The discussion which followed showed that the Sunday School Teachers present, had followed the lecture with interest. The meeting was presided over by the Rural Dean. Previous to the meeting the Boosbeck Teachers had a tea together, and we are deeply indebted to Miss Potter, our secretary, who so ably catered for it.

Dark M.A., gave a lantern lecture on behalf of the Colonial and Continental Church Society in the St. Mary’s Church Room, Moorsholm on Monday November 9th , and in the Boosbeck Church Room on Wednesday November 11th . The subject of the lecture was Australia. We trust the visit of Mr. Dark has quickened our interest in the spiritual well-being of our kith and kin in the colonies.
New Mission Room
The Lingdale New Mission Room was opened on Wednesday afternoon, November 18th. In the absence of the Archdeacon through illness, the Rev. R. J. Ellis, Rector of Skelton, dedicated the building. In the course of his address he spoke of the increased provision which the Church had made during recent years to meet the spiritual needs of the parish, and he earnestly hoped that all who gathered together in the new building, either for public worship or work would look for and claim the fulfillment of the blessed promise “that where two or three are gathered together in my Name, there am I in the midst of them”. – Matt, 18-20. The address was followed by a dedicatory prayer. The Archdeacon, who was distressed in not being able to be present in the New Room on Tuesday December 8th at 7 p.m. The public tea and concert which followed the ceremony and which were held in the Council Schools, were well patronised and brought into the treasury the handsome sum including contributions, of £1 from Mr. and Mrs. Young and 10s from Mrs. Scarth, £12 15s. 3d., which together with the collection of £2 4s. 9d. taken in the room, made a grand total for the day just £15. We have had many excellent teas in connection with the Church but nothing to surpass what was done on this occasion, and we offer our warmest thanks to Mrs. Eeet, Mrs. Thompson, Little Moorsholm and Miss Allison, who so generously provided it and to Mrs. Husband, Mrs. Hutching, Mrs. Calow, Mrs .A. Eldwood and Miss Potter, and all the other good friends who assisted them. Also to Messrs. Wm. Allison, Bowden, Eeet, Prout, Simons, Twidle and to Misses Gill, Cook, Hutching, Knight and Belton who arranged the tables and platform, etc. Mr Allison ably presided over the concert, and in his opening address made a few pungent remarks on the duties and responsibilities of parents to their children. The following ladies and gentlemen took part in the concert Mrs. Starbuck. Misses Cook, D. Cook. M. Featherstone. Hudson, N. Nelson, Varty, Messrs Batty, Davies, Kingston and Taylor.

We offer to these good friends our best thanks for a most enjoyable evening.
