THE ASH B U Rl AN 19 For the opening service of the Lent term the Headmaster ' s address was about John Bunyon ' s writing of the school hymn. The chaplain, during the second term, gave us a series of addresses on history and compilation of the Prayer Book and the services in it. A very short sermon was also given by Mr. Belford each Wednesday morning during Lent on the significance and importance of this season. The annual confirmation service was on March 9th at 8.30 in the evening when we had a pleasant visit from the Lord Bishop of Ottawa. The following boys were confirmed. John Baldwin, Peter Hargreaves, Peter McCuUock, James Finlay, Malcolm Parsons. We were pleased to have with us for this service the Rev. A. T. Carson, rector of St. Bartholomew ' s, and the Rev. W. D. M. Christie, of Westboro, as well as the Bishop and our own chaplain. On the closing Sunday of the term Mr. Glass graphically described to us the events of our Lord ' s passion and the importance of Easter as a church holiday. On the opening Sunday of the Trinity term iMr. Glass gave an address on the importance of the church in society. The addresses of our chaplain during the final term pertained to the events of the great Forty Days of the Ascension of the Lord and also on the power and influence of the Holy Spirit. On his annual visit to the chapel the founder, Canon WooUcombe, spoke in his usual forceable and eloquent manner on the reality of Christ. On May 23rd of this term we visited Christ Church Cathedral for the Trinity Sunday service. Everyone was impressed both with the building and the beauty of the service. A report of the closing sermon given by Mr. Glass and an account of the closing day service are to be found in the article on Closing Day Exercises. The assistant headmaster ' s and housemasters ' addresses were of the usual high order this year. In the Michaelmas term Mr. Brain spoke on Layman and the Holy Communion service. During the last term iMr. Belcher spoke on the necessity of benefiting from our own mistakes. Colonel Brine the Junior School Housemaster, spoke to the congrega- tion in a sermon based on the 121st psalm unto the hills, and told us the help we can receive from God. This was during the Trinity term. The chapel staff consisting of our chaplain the Rev. W . J. Belford, our organist, Mr. L. H. Sibley, and his choir, and the head chapel clerk, Don Gardner, and his assistants Warren Baskerville and Donald Lyon, deserve great thanks for their efforts on our behalf this year and we would like to express our thanks for the good work they have done in making chapel services more colourful and interesting.

18 THE ASH BU Rl AN health high, and in keeping us free of any major epidemics of contagious diseases. We thank them. Dietetics The School was fortunate in acquiring the services of Miss Bur- roughs, our new dietician. Miss Burroughs was for many years dietician at Macdonald Hall and, recently, a supervisor of dietetics with the Canadian Army in England. The delicacies she turns out from her kitchens are much appreciated by one and all. Staff Receptioi? of Farents On several occasions throughout the year the Staff held a reception for parents. The functions were well attended and, it is felt, provide a most valuable opportunity of exchanging useful information as well as constituting a pleasant social occasion. CHAPEL NOTES THE first Sunday of the year Mr. Glass gave a sermon on the reason and importance of chapel and churches to the community. This same theme was carried out by our chaplain, the Rev. W. J. Belford, at Sunday matins throughout the term when he explained the use and significance of the parts and furnishings of a chapel such as the bap- tismal font, the organ and music, the lectern. Prayer Book, and Bible and last but not least, the congregation itself. We were pleased to welcome to the chapel during the early part of the Michaelmas term a friend of the school and the Headmaster of B.C.S., Mr. Grier, just returned from the meeting of the general synod of the Church of England in Canada where the new Primate had been elected to office. He explained to us the organization of the Canadian church and the opportunities open for service in it. His explanation of the romantic names of the dioceses such as Moosonee, Keewatin, Cariboo, Rupert ' s Land and Kootenay was most interesting. On November i6th the Rev. Canon Heeney made his annual visit to the school and at matins spoke to us about the Bible as literature. His visits are always looked forward to and enjoyed by the boys. The final Sunday of the term was highlighted by two events. The first was our Headmaster ' s stirring sermon at morning chapel when he told us the true place for Christmas in a Christian ' s life— to enjoy it but to avoid making it a commercial carnival of tinsel and turkey, and to keep it as the major anniversary in the church calendar. At our evening service we ushered in the Christmas season with the annual carol service. The chapel looked much more beautiful than in previous years thanks to the help of Mr. Oliver who made new candle holders. This beauty and the carol singing helped us in our endeavour to carry out the Headmaster ' s advice.
