WAY TO MEET PAIN.
Canot Elliot, Vicar of Bolton, Lancashire, who has recently returned from a nursing home, where he underwent a minor operation, admits in his parish magazine that he found the actual moment of pain a very difficult matter. “I tried very hard to find some way of meeting this,” Mr. Elliot said, “but I never found anything better than ‘Wow-ooo-wow’; and there is no great harm in this if it gives a momentary relief to the feelings . . I had an idea that it would be useful to find something with a tune to it to sing at the moment of pain;. but I never could find the right tune.”
