read an historical sketch written
'-by Lucy R, Woods:
"A complete*history' of Trinity

over the surface,
Perhaps it would be in order
first to recall the Rector, the
?Reled William Hinde, and his pur-
pose in organizing this Guild 50
years ago,
Some of you will recall that at
-that,' time the interior •of Trinity
'Church• was not as beautiful as it
is today,
There was no pulpit, only a
prayer and reading desk at either
taide of the arch. On the pulpit
'side, the pews went right up to
the wall. They were very, straight

The window in the chancel was
a, cartwheel of red and blue etch-,
'ed glass emanating from a white
frosted hub. It was pretty, but
the lights it cast dazzled the print
in the prayer book for the offic-
iating priest,
The windows in the nave had
small white painted panes, in two
sashes, similar to those in the ya$-,
•tibule.
The church was 'heated by a,
large wood stove which sat in the
centre aisle, opposite the door.

From blue paper, he cut letters
and pasted them over the chan-
cel arch to read; "We praise
Thee, 0 God, We acknowledge
Thee to be the Lord."
This effort was not appreciated
by some members of the •congre-:
gartipn,
Born in .Cumberland,
Mr, Hinde was the son. of a build-
ing contractor. Before entering.
the teaching profession, prior to .
the ministry, he worked with his
father, Therefore, he had a good
sound knowledge of building
which earned. for him the appella-
tion by Bishop Baldwin: "My
Church Renovator." Amongst
the clergy he was known as.
"Hinde'the joker." But his jokes
very often covered up deep emo-
ton.
Mr.. Hinde conceived the idea of
knocking the chancel and east
wall out of the church, and ex-
tending it to allow the choir to.
be seated on either side in the.
chancel. It was with this object
in mind that he organized Trinity
Church Guild.
Mr: Hinde's dream has not yet
materialized, But the Guild has,
as it were, been the hand maiden
of the church, with a very fav-
ourable record over the 50 years.
From the first social, held in
December 1906, the -ladies took in
$20 and paid out $2 for the piano
in the Town Hall and 28 cents
for a pane of glass. The admiss-
Ion was 15 and ten cents.
In a subsequent meting the pre-
vention of clothing sticking to the
church pews was 'discussed.
, The following March, Mr. Hinde
was authorized to write and ascer-
tain prices of Communion tables.
Subsequently -Mrs. Helen Hudie
presented -one to Trinity Church
(later she became Mr. Hinde's'
second wife). •
A St. .George's Day social was
'held in the Town Hall. Then the
president, secretary ' and .treasur-
er interviewed the church war-
dens about altering the church
pews -little wedges were put
der them to tilt them back slight-
ly for more comfort,
in August, Mr. Brownlee was
paid for paint and work on church
pews, And sixteen dollars was
donated:.ows, for .one stained glass win-
dow—these are the present wind-
zn November 1907, a two-light
angle brass lamp was purchased
for the chancel.
Those who /paid for .thirteen
months; November 1000,7 inclUs,
ive, included: Rev, and Mrs. Hin-
de, Miss.. Hinde, Mrs,. Brandon,
Miss L, Cameron, Miss M, Cam-
eron, Miss M. Parke, Mrs. Trip-
pet, 'Mrs. T. Eing, Mrs, pollock,
Miss K, Parke, Miss F. Pollock,
Miss E, Marks, Miss C, A. Parke,
Miss G. Cameron; Mrs.
Naughton, Miss Kate Harrison,
Miss M. Pollock, Miss M, Stin-
son (six months) Mrs. Stillwell
{nine months) Miss C, Parker
(six months), Mrs, C. Cook (one
month.)
In 1909, the Guild bought .chur-
ch dishes, teaspoons, etc., put five.
dozen hymn books at six cents
each in the church, purchased two
new brass coal-oil lamps for
centre aisle for $10,60.
An interesting note in July of
that year is that a Mrs. Nesbit of
St, Pierce, Fla,, attended the
meeting and told of their plan to
build a new church. She appeal-
ed for a donation, either individ-
ually, or from the Guild. The
sum of one .ddllar was voted to-
wards St. Andrew's Church, St.
Pierce, Fla.
Mr. Hinde retired following his
wife's death, and the Rev. J. H.
Condell was appointed Rector in
the spring, 1909. But the spirit
with which Mr. Hinde inspired the
Guild still lives today. There
were members then who gave of
themselves freely in 'the work of
the church, doing more than their
share. 'History repeats itself, as
we know of those members who
spend themselves for the church
today.
During the Condell's stay here,
the Guild commenced doing some
missionary work and we see a
donation of $10, to the M.S.C.C.
And when there was redecorating
to be done, it was the Guild which
footed the bill. And then as now,
some members did' the work
themselves.

lost but from memory's store we
recall that the Guild has, laid

(By our lia,01014 correspondent)
Owing to the inclemeney of
the weather, there was not as
large an attendance at The Gold-
en Anniversary of Trinity church
Guild, held at the Parish Hall on
Thursday, November 29, as had
been expected.
On a table in front •of the plat-
form was a beautifully decorated
round anniversary fruit cake,
twice in past years.
On the 80th anniversary, the
Guild contributed '$250 to renova-
tions, helped purchase the white
hangings, And before the mem-
orial window to the Rev'd Will-
iam Hinde was• installed, they
purchased red felt for hangings
when the cartwheel window was
covered over, and white hangings
for behind the altar when it was
cut open again.
This organization installed the
coal and wood furnace, and paid
the hydro bill from the time of
installation until 1945.
Many a time the church ward-
ens appealed to the Guild to help
pay the budget, and during the
depression it even contributed to
the Rector's- salary.
The Church was re-decorated
once between the 80th and 100th
anniversaries of the forming of
the parish,
1945, we contributed $112.50
towards a bathroom at the rect-
ory.
In 1950, the sum of $600 was
donated to the church decorating
fund.
In 1953, twelve nesting chairs
were purchased.
In 1955, the sum of $712.22 was
turned over to the Parish Hall
Building Fund, and $200.50 paid
for a propane gas stove for the
kitchen.
And this year, we purchased
kitchen curtains for the Parish
Hall, donated $237.75 to J, M.
Stewart for chairs and debt on
the Parish Hall. This' is no mean
record for a small society But
with a few staunch workers, giv-
ing of their time, under the lead-
ership of an able- president, and
with the help of other ladies of
the congregation in bakesales,
etc., there is no limit to what can
be accomplished.
Perhaps, indeed, as our cong-
regation grows, in the years
ahead, Mr. Hinde's dream will
come true."

en 'mums. (The cake was baked
by Mrs. F. Arkell and iced by her
daughter, Mrs. R, Turner for this
occasion). It was flanked by tall
golden tapers,
The meeting was opened with
prayer by. the Rector, the Rev. W.
S. Outerbridge, after which Mrs, J. M. Stewart was called to the
front and Mrs, Percy Weston,
president, pinned a corsage on her
in honour of the fact that she
was the only member . present
who was at the inaugural meeting
of the Guild (the only other orig-
inal is 'Miss Mildred Cameron,
London.)
Mrs. Stewart thanked Mrs.
Weston graciously.

Medical science continues to
advance well beyond the far-
sighted concept of even •the most
optimisticredictions of a fesev
years ago. Electricity makes much
of that progress possible. Today,
doctors use electricity in a variety
of ways, from diagnosis to treat-
ment. Specialized lighting and
electrical aids to surgery make
possible intricate operations un-
'earned of half a century ago. The
X-ray, perhaps eleetricity's great-
est single cohtribution to medicine,
has itself assisted in savifig
thousands of lives.
Electricity's role in medicine is
certain to become increasingly im-
portant and its potentialities
greater as more electronic aids
come into general use. It is another
important way in which electricity,
the silent co-worker in so many
projects, is continually being used
to help provide higher standards
of `health, living and prosperity
for us all,
. Ontario hydro will. continuo to
provide adequate supplies, of poWer
to meet the needs of our hospitals,
homes, farms and indUstries.
