Just as Africa became a• stepping stone to Pantel- laria, • to Sicily and then into Italy, so your stamps will become stepping stones for equipment when the boys march into Berliq! I doubt if any of you would want to see even our own Shrine Planned (Continued from Page 1) more than was required; is not the -explanation of its artistry simply that every man on the project re- garded the task as a labour of love? Dr. Albert W. Palmer once said, "A church should look as if somebody loved it." This Chapel looks as if many loved it. Study of the accompanying photo- graph gives a hint of its simple beau- "`ty: Modern in design, fir with natur- al' green satin finish, has been used throughout. The single centre aisle,. the tiny Chancel platform, and the vestry adjoining, are carpeted 'throughout . in olive green material. 'The organ was built in harmony with the other furnishings. Unusually ef- fective is the indirect lighting. Who was lit announced in a stuffy church oleo summer morning,, "We shall -con- tinue the worship of God by opening the windows"? No such request need be made here! Air-conditioning pro- vides comfortable temperature's on the hottest or coldest days. 'Best of all features in such' a hive of activity as the former "horse palace" $resents, is the soundproof character of the room. In very truth, all within this place conspire to say to each visitor: "Here is a quiet room!, Pause for a little space; And in the deepening gloom With hands fore th'y "face;" Pray. for God's grace. "Let no unholy thought Enter thy musing mind; Things that the world hath wrought, U nclean—untrue—unkind— Leave these behind." (Donald Cox) • Such an invitation embodies the Primary purpose of the chapel: which is prayer and meditation. But airmen marry, and airmen's families include babies ,whose baptism into the Name ahove every ,.name means much to •them as to other Christians. Thus the Chapel is frequently the scene 'of marriage services and baptismal rites. 'Mrd -week devotional services are also. held within its walls. Jr any evidence were needed of its usefulness, scan- ning the, Chaplains register of wed- dings and baptisms would furnish am- ple proof. Only three months, have passed since the June Sunday when Group Captain . W. Ewart Cockram, Principal Protestant Chaplain of the R.C.A.F., in; solemn and impressive ceremony, dedicated the Chapel to the glory of God. Group Captain H. O. McDonaliecommanding.Officer; Wing Commander G. E. Creighton, Admin- istrative Officer, and officers and air- men representing every section of the Depot participated in the service. Service Funds partially, defrayed the expense of the chapel's erection, but the various Protestant denomina- tions eontributed to the cost of equip - anent. The seats, lthe organ, the bap- tismal font, the Bible, and the vestry furniture (pastoral .counselling with- out distractions is conducted in the vestry.) were contributed by the Wa¢r Services Committee of the Anglican, Baptist, Presbyterian and United Churches with a gift also from the Jewish Federation of Toronto. In •ad- dition, several United Churches of Toronto eagerly shared in the ex- 'pense of making the chapel complete and worthy of its high uses. One con- gregation, . for .example, sent in mem- ory of their Session Clerk's lad who vanished into the Unseen on Dawn Patrol last -spring. ' Associated with Squadron Leader C. C. 'Murray in, ministering to the "congregation" of "M" Depot are Flight Lieutenants A. A. Maloney (Anglican) and A. Linton (Baptist) . Obviously, the Chapel does not pro- vide accommodation for the large congregations assembled for Church Parade Sunday by Sunday. As the photograph on this page will reveal, the Chapei'a' ,forty-six chairs- could scarcely seat- the choir,. which is al- so a project of Padre Murray.. Birdmen can sing -as well as fly! Corporal John Linn, in more prosaic days the choirmaster and organist of Trinity United Church, Toronto, di- rects the choir which leads the prais- es at every church service held on the.' Station. Little wonder. that the public worship of one thousand men lifts and liberates them, as on the wings of faith they rise into the Pres- ence. lindepominational in character, available for Jew and Gentile alike, the Depot Chapel should remain a' shrine and memorial long after the building whicb gives it sanctuary re-. turns to -its peacetime functions. Wan the guns are stilled, and our warriors lay away their accoulrltre- ments of battle, devout souls will make their praise that such a Quiet Room remains, symbol of man's un- dying quest and finding. "Amid the turmoil of the tempest's din When systems shook and nations rent in twain Became a holocaust of fear and sin. . Lord, let us bear Thy•still small voice again." WINTHROP Week -end visitors at the Haase home .were:. Mrs. Ida Jacques and. Mr. Henry Campbell, of Listowel; Mr. and Mrs. Thomas McOlement and family, of. Gorrie, and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hutcheson and family, also of Gorrie. Included in the gathering were Mrs. Henry Haase, of Acton, and Mr. William Quinnell, of Tiverton. - The Red Cross Unit baking sale, bazaar and tea was a success. We thank all those who helped to make it such. The sum of $70 was realiz- ed. The ladies intend to raise money for soldiers' Christmas boxes. Let us all get our sh•ouldes to the wheel and show the boys we are behind them. What they are sacrificing for us is surely worth a donation. Sev- eral have helped us generously every time, we ask. We hope everyone will help when the time comes again. The gift donations and cash dona- tions to prisoner -of -war parcels from our unit was $16.00. We thank you.
