AIKEN'S SHOES and LUGGAGE New Wing Nears Completion At 0o St. Church hurch After many years of planning. and more recently, months of hard work, the new wing of Ontario Street United Church is nearing completion. Special opening ser- vices are being planned for Sim - day, November 27, to Commemor- ate this occasion. Ontario Street church has long been noted for its "big" celebra- tions, 'In 1928, the Golden Jubilee, of the church was marked with special services lasting throughout. an entire week, when young peo- ple's rally, thanksgiving service, congregational meeting, and other special events were climaxed the following Monday with a Grand Jubilee supper and concert. Up until that time, the church had spent several years as a Bible Christian .Church for which it was built on the location where the Huron Road Baptist Church now stands. In 1877-78, under the ministry of Rev. R. T. Courtice, the new church was erected on the present site on Ontario Street (Highway 8). Then sometime be- tween 1882 and 1885 it united in the union of the Methodist Churches in Canada, and Turner's Church was added to the circuit. Two additions to the church build- ing were required, one in 1901 and again in 1906. In 1909 the congregation pur- chased and installed a pipe organ, and two years later, to supple- ment the service in song offered each Sunday, gowns were supplied to the choir members. In 1925 it entered the larger union to form the United Church of Canada and so has continued. Up until the Golden Jubilee in 1928, the church had been served by 19 ministers, and since then four have been added to a long list of faithful men. More recently, in 1945, chimes were presented to the church by Adam J. McMurray in honour of the memory of his first wife who had died the year before. Personals Lloyd Carter, Toronto, spent the weekened with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Derwin Carter. Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Bouskill and Charles A. Wallis, Toronto,. visited with Mrs. Wilmer Wallis and other relatives last week, Clifford Epps, zone director for horticultural societies, was the guestspeakerat the meeting of Brussels society last Monday.

Sutter, Preston, spent the weekend with their son- in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. R. P. Robbins and family, Rich- mond Hill. On Sunday four memorial win- dows were dedicated in Trivitt Memorial Anglican Church, Exe- ter, in memory of the late Judge Lewis Henry Dickson and his wife Janet( Sperling) Dickson, former residents of the church. Three nephews of the honoured couple, W. J. Mutch and Kelso Streets, Clinton, and Van Laughton, Eke - ter, attended the dedication ser- vice in the evening. Mrs. Chas.
