Arthur Fred- erick Thompson, a native of DerbY, England. were unveiled at St, John's Anglican Church by his son Mr. Louis D. Thomps' n of ilrussels. on Sunday afternoon before a large ceegregation. Rev. John Kerr, rector, was in charge nt the service of dedication. The Rural Dean of Huron, Rev. B. H. Farr of Goderich, was the guest speaker. He chose as his text the w+ortis, "He being dead, yet speaketh" and spoke of the "wake" we leave be- hind when we are gone. Mise Carrie Hingeton sang a solo "How lovely are Thy Dwellings," The choir sang the anthem "Open The Gates of the Temple." Mr. and Mrs. L. D. Thompson were the donors' of the windows, His father, whose memory they honor, was a de- voted and active member of the Church of England, who died in Feb- ruary 1912 at the age of 82. The grove of windows is known as the "East Window" and consists of three separate units. On the central window, which is the dominating one, is portrayed the figure of Our Lord holding tbe cup. On the window to His right is the Virgin Mother in an attitude of adoration. On His left Is St. Sohn holding the book in his left hand and the pace in his right as suggested in the book of Revelat- ion. Close by St. John is the eagle with spread wings the symbol of St. John's gospel. The background of blue together with the garments of deep tones of red, blue and green gives the whole a richness of color. The suggestion of the group is evident. Christ is as always the central figure, St. John, whose name the church hears, stands on the left hand of Our Lord, while the Virgin Mother, standing on His right, suggests the place of woman- hood in the Christian Church.
