THE :ISHBURIAN 13 Nidrei and told us about its history, describing it as the most sacred of all jewish music. It is with great regret that we say Au rcvoir to Rev. Xlr. .-Xttwell who is leaving us. He came here three short years ago from a parish in the Diocese of Ontario and is going to a parish in the Diocese of Ottawa. We are going to miss the sincerity and good humour of a very conscien- tious and devoted Chaplain. We wish him every happiness and hope he will visit us in the future. Altogether, the Chapel has afforded almost everyone in the school a chance to serve God in one way and another, and like the Psalmist we can say, Behold, how good and joyful a thing it is, brethren, to dwell together in unity. The reading of the daily lesson by the prefects, and by the Head Boy on Sunday, has been done well and conscientiously. This year again it was our pleasure to have the young ladies of Elm- wood with us for many of the Sunday Services, usually accompanied by Mrs. Blyth and other members of her staff. XVe were very pleased to welcome the Elmwood Choir which was with us on two occasions, to worship with us and also to sing an anthem. XVe thank their Choir Director, Nlrs. Harwood-jones, for making this possible. On several occasions the Elmwood Head Boarder, Xliss Deborah Monk, read the lesson. We always look forward to having Xlr. lYilliam Navan, the blind organist, lay reader and server at St. Xlargarets Eastview. who brings his junior choir to the Chapel and also preaches. The Candlelight Service was the best ever and a credit to Nlr. Hewitt. THE CHAPEL OFFERINGS l. Part of our offerings was used to buy new hymn books to replace those that are worn out by daily use. 2. A cheque was sent to Capt. Dicks of the Church .-Xrmy. After his sermon about his work in the prisons and courts, we decided we should hel . P 3. A contribution of S151 was sent to aid in the restoration of the parish Church at Ashbury in England.

THE ASHBURIAN If Interesting sermons were given by Head Server David Mulaner and by Senior Server Bruce McNair, and the two chaplains preached on the intervening Sundays. WVC were expecting to have Rev. Nlr. Bolton and some of the young people of his congregation to give us a demonstration of the new 'l ollc Mass . Unfortunately it was not possible to find a convenient date so this was postponed until next Fall. The three annual Corporate School Communion Services were celebrated as usual by the Chaplains: on All Saints Day in the Fall, on Ash Wednesday in the XYinter Term, and on Ascension Dav in the Spring. One of the happy traditions in the chapel is for the Lords Table to be open to Christians of other branches of the Church. XYith the Bishop's permission, we invite boys from other Christian Communities to take the Sacrament with us as long as they are baptised and customarily receive it in their own Church. THE CONFIRMATION SERVICE The Right Rev. Ii. S. Reed, M.A., D.D., Lord Bishop of Ottawa, confirmed 21 boys by the ancient and historic rite of the laying on of hands in the Chapel on Friday, May 8th at 8.00 p.m. A large number of parents and friends were present. As usual these boys had been receiving weekly instruction ever since last September. It was a pleasure to have non-Anglican boys sitting in and preparing for Confirmation in the United and other Churches. This year Servers' medallions were presented to Burritt and Barber. Burritt's medallion was awarded last year but was not presented. The welcome to the Bishop was given by the Head Server, David Mulaner. The Service was conducted by the Rev. Mr. Attwell, and the Rev. Mr. Monks was the Bishop's Chaplain. The lessons were read by Burritt and McNair. During the service the Bishop dedicated the new window to the glory of God and in loving memory of Adam Stephen George Podhrad- sky. Mrs. Podhradsky and a number of friends were present.
