BISHOP BIDWELL WRITES FRIENDS Is Now Acting As Vicar Of Parish In England News of the Rt. Rev. E, J. Bid- well, former Bishop of the Diocese of Ontario, is contained in the fol- lowing communication from him which is appearing in Canadian newspapers: "In the twenty-three years I spent in Canada in various capacities | was fortunate enough to make a good many friends, and to them | am venturing to make an appeal. 1 am now vicar of the ancient Church of Sellindge, near Ashford, Kent, England. e are a small agricul- tural parish, the population consist- ing of farmers and weekly wage- earners. None of us, including the Viear (the so-called 'Living' is worth only $1,500 a year) has much money. Suddenly we are confronted with the necessity of re-roofing the church and carrying out other structural re- pairs at a cost of from $3,000 to $5,- 000. This may seem a comparative- ly small sum, but it is far beyonc our powers to raise it in the parish, even with the assistance of a grant from the Diocese, though we shall do all we can. "I should therefore be most grate- ful if any of my 'Old Boys' of Bish- op's College School, Lennoxville, or others connected with me in my work there, or of those who knew me as successively Dean and Bishop of Ontario, would for the sake of old times help me in this heavy task. Also perhaps those who attended the little summer church at Metis to which I ministered for many years may see this appeal and be willing to offer some help. I am. hoping, too, that some of the Canadian Ex- peditionary Force who worshipped in this church during the war may like, if they see this letter, to give some assistance for the sake of old memories. "This is a most interesting old church, and the eminent architect, Mr. W. D. Caroe, speaks most strongly of its architectural import- ance. The tower is early Norman, and the present chancel, which is not the original one, is late 13th century. In the 14th century a' side-chapel dedicated to St. Erasmus and a north aisle were added. Structural- ly, the church has not been altered since that date, though unfortunate- ly a beautiful arcade between the nave and the aisle was taken down early in the last century, and at the same time the Erasmus chapel, which had survived intact to that date, altar and all, was g@mantled and filled with unwanted¥ews. In the chancel is the tomb of Elizabeth More PEOPLE BJ BUY TIRES ORE people ride on Goodyear Tires (For 16 consecutive years, Goodyear has enjoyed ' than on any other brand. the largest tire sales in Canada and in the whole world.) More people want Goodyear Tires than anyotherbrand. (Ina nation-wide vote for motorists, 49.29% said they would buy Goodyears--the other half of the 34 votes were divided among 21 makes.) More people go to Goodyear dealers for tires than to dealers selling any other brand. (Goodyear dealers sell the tires most people want, give the kind of service most people want, carry a com- plete range of types and prices.) Goodyears are priced as low as any tires you would consides using. So, seeing that you are going to pay the Goodyear price anyway, why not get Goodyear quality? Dealer for his prices on your size. Ask your Goodyear Selected His answer will surprise you. You will not need to look further. Goodyear Means Good Wear and family, Mr. and Mrs. A. Moon and family, Mr. and Mrs. R. wot rn RR Rind TIRES Selected Mayfield, niece of 'the ever-blessed m r, Laud, Archbishop of Can- a: as he is described on the tol tone. There is an unusually large number of consecration cross- es on the walls within and without the church, and some very fine an- cient iron-work in the windows and elsewhere. Also in. the wall be- tween the chapel and the aisle there is a recess, shaped like a long win- dow, open in the upper part to the aisle, and entirely to the chapel, from which it is entered. This was either an Anchorite's cell, or mare probably the place where any person who had to do public penance in a white sheet stood. Only the head and shoulders of the penitent would be visible from the aisle. Altoge- ther, the church is an historic monument well worth preserving. Any contributions sent to me for the sake of old times will be most gatefully received and acknow- ledged. "EDWARD J. BIDWELL, "(Late Bishop of Ontario) "The Vicarage, Sellindge, Ashford, Kent, England." REAL FOGGY SPOT FOUND (By Canadian Press) * Yarmouth, N.S.--During the months of May, June and July the fog horn was sounded a few minutes over 772 hours, a per- iod, had it been continuous, of over thirty ful] days, stated the keeper of the Yarmouth light and fog alarm at Cape Forchu. This dense fog sometimes plays tricks ith the warning signal of the orn, and for some years engin- eers of the Department of Mar- ine have endeavored to work out some scheme whereby the sound of the whistle will carry better to the southward and southwest in foggy weather.
