Appeal on behalf of St. Martin-in-the-Fields' Christmas Fund by the Vicar, the Rev. L. M. Charles -
Edwards
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
At Christmas time all of us feel we would like to help somebody who is not as fortunate as we are. The problem is how best to do it. By a stroke of genius the late Dick Sheppard, when Vicar of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, decided to make himself the means, and St. Martin's the agent, by which the tremendous feeling of goodwill which surrounds the Christmas Festival might be turned to practical ends.
St Martin's Church occupies a unique position in being the first parish church from which a service was broadcast as far back as 1927, and nearly every year since then the service has been followed by an appeal on behalf of St. Martin's Christmas Fund which, through its distributors all over the country, is able to give help to those in need, irrespective of class or creed.

Hilda Lessways was shown over the printing works by Edwin Clayhanger. She was interested, and promised to go again next day. She failed to keep that appointment and Edwin was desperately unhappy. Next day, by chance, he met her only to find that she was leaving for Brighton that night. They realised they had fallen in love, and Edwin wanted the engagement announced but Hilda asked for secrecy until her return in a few days. Her letters were infrequent but confirmed her love. Two weeks later, in confidence, Edwin told his father that he wanted to get married and once again they quarrelled. Edwin rushed from the house. He met Janet, who told him she had heard from Hilda that she was already married-to a Mr. Cannon.

5-Uncommon Sense
Sometimes an electron behaves as if it were a wave and sometimes as a particle. This dual behaviour forced upom physicists the important idea of ' complementary.'
In the fifth of his six lectures Dr.
Oppenheimer shows that this notion may be applied in other fields where two views can be held, the one supplementing the other, neither being adequate in itself.
