sermon the Board of Management,
numbering 18 men, including the

ceremony. The church was present-

then consecrated the building as a
place set apart for Divine worship
and for the administration of the
Sacraments.
In the afternoon a young people's
service was held of a unique nature.
In the front of the building is a war
memorial: window installed by the
Philathea Club, the young people's
society. This has been donated to
the church in sacred memory of aur
Canadian soldiers who paid the su-
preme sacrifice. The window is a
magnificent piece of art depicting

entire service was impressive and the
church was filled to capacity.
The evening service was a beau-

It was a sneering remark made by
Christ's .enemies, asks yelp it was a
prophecy. The sipea:ker showed how
Christianity had advanced int the world
in spite of untold hatred and per-
