7 eet SIMCOE STREET UNITED ss i CHURCH EXTERIOR VIEW OF NEW CHAPEL Given By Congregation The congregation of Simcoe Street United Church held a service of dedication for their new chapel Sunday afternoon. The tastefully decorated build- ing was filled to capacity to witness the ceremony which was conducted by the minister of the church, Rev. John K. Moffat The sermon, the text of which was taken from the Book of Joshua, was delivered by the Rev. Dr. George Telford IN DAILY USE Mr. Moffa: said he' wanted the congregation to understand the chapel was there to be used. It would be open daily from now om and that the regular Sun- day evening services would be held there in future. The new building would also be used for small weddings, Sunday School services and by the various groups in the church who would find the chapel lends itself to the worship part of their ac- tivities. Mr, Moffat thanked all those, who contributed their time,| money and energies to the com- pletion of the building. Following Mr. Moffat's ad dress, Dr. Telford read the les- son which was taken from Ephe- sians, chapter two, verses 13 to 22, which was followed in turn by the Anthem "God so Loved The World" by the choir SIGNAL HONOR Dr. Telford said he consider- ed it a signal honor to be asked to preside at the service. He congratulated the congregation on the completion of the build- ing, adding that when Mr. Moffat was handing out his ac- colades to all those responsible, Ea he had neglected to mention his own part as minister of the church. In his sermon, he said there was nothing in the world today more in need of safe- guarding than the word of Jes- us Christ, while commenting on a recent newspaper article which said, in effect that religion would soon be replaced by science The service concluded with the benediction and organ postlude, played by Reginald G. Geen organist of the church. MANY GIFTS The chapel was furnished by, gifts, some in the form of mem- orials, by the following; BALDWIN ORGAN -- Bequest from the late Frank E.

The quake was one of a series reported from the Adriatic to the Caribbean. Worst hit centre in Yugoslavia was the Adriatic resort of Ma- karska, south of Split, where the two deaths were reported and more than 10 were injured. About 400 persons were home- less. Reports from the area said the two victims were buried in a mountain landslide. Several villages and isolated houses were demolished. Aid was being rushed in from neighboring towns. In all, the district was re- ported shaken by 21 quakes of? varying intensity Sunday night and today. Another quake shook the Dominican Republic capital of Santo Domingo, sending thou- sands into the streets in panic. No casualties or serious dam- age was reported. Seismographs in the United States recorded earthquakes shortly after 8 p.m. Sunday but it was not immediately deter- mined whether the readings} were from the Yugoslav or! Dominican shocks. In Cuba, giant waves bat-) tered Havana's Malecon Sea-| front Drive during the night,| opening up gaping holes at sev-| eral points.
