The building, with its spire rising out of a kind of colonnade, looks like a huge extinguisher on a queerly shaped candlestick. All Souls has just celebrated its centen- ary. The service, which was con- ducted by Dr. Perrin, Bishop of Wil- ner, for the excursion trains from a distance ran straight into the Exhi- bition. The financial results of this year are not fully known yet, but there is no doubt there {s a considerable de- ficit, though probably not more than could be covered by the original guarantee of about one and .a half million pounds.
