These have been conducted steadily with a minimum of inconveni- ence and the fullest atmosphere of church dignity. It was necessary to put in a new ceiling in the church and it was therefore lowered about two feet and insulated between the old and the new and the building tie rods were enclosed (boxed in) and the ceiling in the Chancel was raised about two feet which has greatly im- proved the appearance and the coved ceiling effect maintained in the nave and made effective likewise now in the Chancel. The decor is much lighter with pastel shade of blue on the ceiling and light grey on the walls and the border is done most effectively above the wainscoting in pastel shades of green, mauve and golden brown and at the ends 'rich hues of red and gold stand out most effect- ively. The raised ceiling in the Chancel has made it possible to use symbolic wall designs which richly enhance the entire struc- ture in Striking beauty. Summing it all up, "It is all very lovely" and it is made pos- sible by the accumulated Cent- A-Meal Fund and a donation of $800 by the Parish Guild which will practically cover the entire cost of this extensive work. A Hammond Electric Organ has been temporarily installed, and an organ recital is planned for that evening at 8 o'clock. After the recital the organ com- mittee of the parish consisting of Harry F. Baker, chahman; Robert Turner, and the Church Wardens, Fred Arkell, Rector's Warden and Lloyd Scotchmer, People's Warden, will meet with the Rector and other members of the Rierd of Management to decide whether or not a new organ will be purchased at this time. An organ fund was inaugur- ated a few years ago by a gen- erous donation of Mrs. Percy Danforth, of Ann Arbor, Mich., as a memorial to her father, the late James Adams, a generous benefactor of Trinity Church. Other donations as memorials have been made since then to augment the fund as well as that of Trinity Club, and mem- orial donations will be solicited in the event a decision is made to purchase a new organ at this time, for which approval of the Synod Executive Committee has been received. On Sunday, July 17 Rev. Can- on F. H. Paull preached a very stirring and effective sermon on the statement of Jesus, "I am the Vine and Ye are the branches" which was most ap- propriate to the occasion and could be regarded as being the prelude to inaugurate the re- opening. The soloist at the 11 o'clock service will be Mrs. J. B. Hig- gins and the organist will be the church organist, Mrs. Don- ald Johnston.
