From the Minister's study ,
• REV. GAFiWOOD RUSSELL
St. George's 4ttglican Church
A constant prayer
1 had . missed hearing • the
Westminster Chimes marking
each quarter hour frOm the
qpck - in the County Court
HoUse _ lately, but now the
familiar sound is ba.cleagitin.
---e-Theee*Setniiriser -•ch.ime is
probably the best-knOwn clock,
chime in •North A,rnerica-..lt is
named from the bells of the
Hoses of Parliament at
Westminster, England, in, the
heart of metropolitan London.
These chimes are used by many
clocks, includieg, the one in the
Peace Tower of our Parliament
Buildings in Ottawa.
• 14 ea ring he • chime in
Goderich has often carried my
thoughts back to, childhood
memories. . The bells of St.
James' Church, Stratford;
pro"vided a musical
accompaniment every fifteen
minutes for summer evening
games like "Run Sheep Run",
for bicycling along ' the River
Drive, 'swimming in the Pool and
tobogganning on the Collegiate
• hill. The tower of St. James has
no clock face, but fromthe eight
• , fine bells conies the regular
"quarterly chime and the deeper
• tone that strlet-the hour.
From a mUsioal .standpoint,
the. WeStiniester chime is, I
Suri se,,. a very unimportant
Watigkaiirailth, -46104..,A:!ititIA4A-40,•14,4.
dett
peaceful quality about it that far
outdoes its Musical value.
It is traditionally linked with
-four lines of verse:
"THE BIBLE
TODAY" 1,
Koine was an anialeem f
some time in the Orturev Islands
Lord-, through this hour,
Be Thoti our guide.
, That by Thy power, •
• No foot shall slicte.e-
At the first :quarter, • one
"line" is played. At the second
carte, two lines, and at the'
third, three. On the hour, the
cemplete "verse" is heard,
followed by the bell that tells
the hour.,
There -are _other clock
"tunes'", but any I have ,heard
seem ., strained , and feverish
.compared with, the Westminster
aime„ • -Possibi y 1 am being—
overly ' sentimental in this
opinion, but 1 love the simple
tune of the Westminster.
Hearing it in Ottawa from the
Peace 'Tower -- is a thrilling
experience. I, am sure that every
Canadian who has ever ,isited
Ottawa, is proud of the
magnificence he sees in the
, grounds and beildieg-s
Parliathent Hill.
'titre.. hundred feet abov tbe
entrenee to, the.Centie 'Block, e
viecirtbis beautiful Gothic tower
from the ground and thee to
ascend to the top; to 'overlook
the city to
the fiver. from the
tour sides; to see the Gatineau in •
the misty distance; and; finally;4.
at ,that height to hear the, bells
just below you as you stand on
the parapet beneath one of the
four huge clock faces: these are
pleasure* that are unforgettable.
. • In- these day. when people
travel to exotielaces in Eurepe
and Asia, it is worth
remembering that '.our own
• country has a wealth of graceful,
buil4ings, and our capital city of
Ottawa is one of the rich gems.
As you journey or labour in
the months ahead, let the chime
of Westminster: provide you with
a constant prayer:• ,
Lord,'through this hour,
• Be Tb•ou our
That by Thy Power,
No foot shall,slide.

place is, the Peace Tower soN.' ring
