Memorial Windows Unveiled at St. John's Impressive Ceremony A great congregation assem- bled in St. John's Anglican Church, Sunday morning, Dec. 22, 1946, to take part in the very impressive memorial service whîch was arranged as a dedica- tion of two memorial windows, the gift of former members of the congregation, John H. and Ella McNeill Hallowell and the family of the late Rebecca Mon- tgomery Coulteri as well as an- other from the children of St. John's Sunday School. The sermon preached by the Rector, Rev. J. de Pencier Wright, brought out the spirit of faithful- ness to the Church and the Chris- tian religion as the inspiring mo- tives for these' gîfts to be shared by living members as symbols of the living presence of Christ and His Evangelists. Special choral selections offered devout appreciation. of these gifts of re- membrance as bright December sunlight shone through the color- ed windows. The St. John Window, gift of the Hallowells, shows the figure of St. John the Evangelist with pen and scroll, on which is in- scribed, "In the Begînning was The Word." 0f the other Evan- gelists, St. Matthew, St. Mark and St. Luke, too lîttle is known to be more definite in suggesting a distinctive portrait. Ail three are shown as elderly and bearded, as venerable and inspired teach- ers. St. John, however, is known to us intimately as a young man, the Beloved Disciple. He is rep- resented as a young man and beardless. As the titular Saint of the Church, slight emphasis has been placed in this window by introducing two Angels above the figure. These bear the scroll with the text: "Hereby Perceive We the Love of God," and above is shown the Chalice. The inscription at the base is: "To the Glory of God and Ini Loving Memory of John H. Hall- owell and EUla MeNeill Hallo- well." The Holy Communion Window, in memory of Mrs. Thomas Coul- ter, shows Our Lord with the Commuxýion Cup in one hand and the right hand in the act of bles- sing. The Christ figure is shown in a cloak of the traditional rich ruby coloring. As the figure of the virgin is shown always in blue, so the Christ figure is shown in richest ruby, the most advanc- ing of the colors. Early theologians gave the symbolic meaning of- "Divine Love" to this ruby coloring but that was alter Art had establish- ed the pri.nciple that the Christ figure, te dominate a group of figures, should be in red. The emblem at the top of the window is the monogram derived from the first three letters of the Greek word for "Jesus". The accompanying text is: "Draw near with Faith. and take this Sacrament." The inscription at the base reads: "Te the Glory of God and in Lovmng Memory of our Mother, Rebecca Montgom- ery Coulter. Erected 1946." "Our Lord and the Children" the gif t window of the children, shows the Christ figure holding in His arm a small child, and with hand tenderly placed over the head of the child a few years eIder. The emblem at the top shows a Baptismal Font with Dove above, symbol of the Holy Spirit. The text accompanying reads: "For such is the Kingdom of Heaven." The inscription at the base reads: "To the Glory of God and Presented by the children of St. John's Sunday School, December 22, 1946". The backgrounds of ail three windows are in diamond shaped pieces of glass in various light colorings and with small emblem motifs distributed throughout. The emblems used in this man- ner are: Holy Bible; Tables of the Law; Lamp of Truth; Monogram of Christ; The Chalice; Font and THE STATESMAN NOW SOLD AT THESE STORES Newcastle: J. S.
