St. Stephen's Church when an Altar Cross was dedicated to the Glory of God and in loving memory of tile departed members of the Woman's Auxiliary. The rector, Rev. E. M. Caldwell conducted the service of evening prayer, and the Holy Office of Dedication was taken by Rev, Her- bert Naylor, rector of St. John'S Church, Listowel, who also 'preached the Dedication sermon. Mr. Naylor took as his text St. Paul's familiar words 'God forbid that I should glory, save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ," He complimented the mem- bers of the 'Woman's Auxiliary on their Church and their Society in giv- ing this appropriate memorial. He said, the Cross must ever be the symbol of the faith, the banner under which the work of ' God's kingdom was enlarged and extended. Its pres- ence on the holy table should always remind us of the stern challenge thrown out to us by' Christ to labour, to pray, to give. A sacrifice in the interests of the church which is His Body. The cross as a symbol should not in any way be an end itself, but as a sign post pointing to the Saviour who came to give ,his life a ransom for many. Appropriate music was rendered by the choir including Canon Tulian's Dedication Prayer, Mrs. 'Harry King presided at the organ. Earngey - Anger A very pretty wedding was solem- nized by tile Rev, R.
