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

Also the following gifts which have been given anony- mously :- red burse and veil, purple burse and veil, cassocks and surplices, choir books, alms plates and bags. We wish to thank all those who have given flowers for the decoration of the chapel. Most emphatically do we wish to thank Lady Lake and those who worked with her, for their great assistance in col- lecting the subscriptions for the building of the chapel. N Sunday, Dominion Day, the Shawnigan Lake School Chapel was dedicated by the Right Rev. C. V. Schofield, Lord Bishop of Columbia. The building, which has seating accommodation for two hundred, is of frame construction faced with stucco, and has a grey shingled roof, surmounted by a cross at the west end. Mr. Douglas James, of Duncan, was the architect. The ceremony of dedication began at 11 a.m. The con- gregation, consisting of the Governors, the boys of the school, and about 120 persons who had been invited to attend, was seated in the chapel, as the surpliced choir, led by the cross- bearer, walked in procession from the gymnasium, followed by the clergy, Rev. E. M. Willis (chaplain), Rev. J. S. A. Bastin, The Rev. N. E. Smith, The Rev. W. E. Cockshott, Archdeacon E. P. Laycock, the Bishop, and the Headmaster, Mr. C. W. Lonsdale. The service commenced with the singing of the twenty- fourth Psalm, as the procession walked up the aisle. Stand- ing before the altar, the Bishop conducted the service of dedication. 18
