ST. ANDREW’S CHURCH. Rev. G. T. Brown, M.A., has agreed as a result of many roquests to continue his special addresses to parents for ono more Sunday and to-morrow morning ho will answer a somewhat difficult question, viz., “How to train my child in sclf-reverence, and so safeguard him against impure imaginations.” Tho question of sex and sex knowledge is ono of great practical difficulty and baffles the mind of many a parent. The difficulty has been greatly increased by a lack of sano advice and of wise leading on tho part of those who should bo able to giv© it. Tho pulpit has too long been guilty of a culpable silence on this matter. Many parents will therefore no doubt be glad to have this question dealt with.
