Scope and content

Letter to Canon Hayes from Mary O'Brien, Oak Bay, British Columbia, Canada, enclosing literature on credit unions [not attached]. O'Brien writes that her Catholic parish is struggling to build a school in Oak Bay and their church is too small for their congregation. She notes that most food there is bought from the store rather than grown, and most people drop everything to do go to sports on Sundays. She notes that high school children in British Columbia are taught how to conduct meetings according to procedure and 'how to speak out for what they believe. This training, it seems to me, would do much to counteract the secrecy, whispering & timidity of the present generation, The British are gone now, so what are they always afraid of?'
