wife of the rector and Mrs. Ro-
bert Ahara, president of the

committee arranged the antique
display. An old-fashioned sit-
ting room was set up with sev-

hymns and songs of the era were
played during teatime.

gone for St. Paul's parish,
starting with services held in

been held in the present build-
ing since 1893. History goes
on and so St. Paul's starts off
its second century.
