SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL MAGAZINE THINGS WE WANT TO KNOW WHETHER the Notice on the Board with regard to a certain cricket match, viz.. The following will represent the Staff on Ascension Day, did not give rise to very mixed feelings in the school generally.

ON WHICH NIGHTS the meetings of Ripley ' s Secret So- ciety take place. IF IT IS TRUE that Merritt intends having a picture of a rugger ball worked on to the pocket of his pyjamas.

SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL MAGAZINE 8 N Sunday, June 4, we held our first service in the New Chapel. The building ' was not quite completed, but it was sufficiently advanced for us to make use of it. On Sunday, July 1, the chapel was dedicated by the Lord Bishop of the Diocese. A full account of the service will be found elsewhere in this magazine. On March 14, the Lord Bishop of the Diocese came to the church and held a Confirmation Service, at which 23 boys were confirmed. Sermons have been preached by Rev. H. T. Archbold, Rev. Canon Hinchliffe, and the Rt. Rev. the Lord Bishop of the Diocese. The Loggin Memorial Lectern is now in its place. It takes the form of an eagle with wings outstretched, carved in oak; a very beautiful piece of work, executed by Mr. Gibson, of Shawnigan. We acknowledge with thanks the following gifts to the Chapel :- White Frontal in cloth of gold, presented by Mrs. W. H. M. Lonsdale, with a design beautifully worked by Miss Ravenhill ; also a handsome white Burse and Veil worked by Miss Ravenhill, from Miss Gildea. A pair of brass candlesticks from Lady Lake. A pair of tall brass candlesticks from Mr. R. Rose. Altar linen from Miss Webb, England. A set of linen from Rev. F. Windley. A white stole from Rev. O. Hunt, a former chaplain of the school. An altar prayer book from Mrs. Wells. 17
