CHURCH TEA The church tea in the evening was an unqualified success from every standpoint, and the Ladies’ Aid of the church certainly deserve great credit for their enterprise. The wait- ers, who were all members of the iipwcrth League, also deserve the thanks of all for the very efficient manner in which every one was Serf- ed. There was plenty for all, and ev- ery one enloyed every mouthful of the well cool-zed fowl and tasty viands 1 served with it. The tables were kept Rev. Thos. Brown, a form pas- tor. gave out a hymn and dismissed the meeting. We often come to the Red Sea. of difficulties, white God speaks to us, telling us to ”Go forward" and obey- ing Him we overcome all manner of difficulties in physical, intellectual, and church work. Dr. Williamson re‘ fc-rred to three biblical instances, where obedience to God overcome the seemingly impossible; Abraham oflerâ€" ing his son as a sacrifice; Noah building thc ark, and Gideon with his 300 men overcoming the hosts of the Mid-eonites._ This churCh was not built without diflicun'n'es, that if the people present do what they ought to it will stand tree of debt by this evâ€" ening. Subscriptions of $2800.00 were shortly taken in. A 11me was first announced by the pastor, Rev. Wm. Limbert, whose un- tiring zeal and efforts made possible the beautiful structure in which the people will now worship. Since the first stone was laid he has been con- ;stantly with the work, assisting, manning and directing in every di- lrection, endeavoring to help along the work of his unusually efficient building committee. Rev. G. H. Cope- land, president of the Bay of Quinte conference, then led in prayer, and after an anthem had been sung by the choir and Rev. Dr. Williamson of Niagara had read the scriptures, and another hymn had been announced by Rev. Wesley Elliott, Rev. Dr. Wil- liamson preached a, very inspiring sermOn on the words “Go Forward." He spoke of the Israelites leaving Egypt to go to the Promised Land. At the Red Sea they were unable to proceed. God then spoke to Moses. “Go [orWard,” and as they approach; ed the sea the waters subsided and they went through to the other shore, where they sang a song of triumph. FORMAL OPENING The formal open'ng of the church took place yesterday afternoon with a. large congregation present, besides many of the clergy from surrounding: points. With a commendable spirit all the members of the congregation vied with each other in contributing time and money to the construction oi the church. The pragress of the work was watched with interest by one ‘and all from the time the first “sod ‘was turned" to use an old phrase, until the magnificent pile was ready for the dedication to the service of Almighty God. All honor and praise is, therefore due to the good people of the church for their enterprise in erecting such a temple to the glory of God. Long may its Walls resound with praises of the Omnipotent One. who in His divine providence made it possible for the congregation to worship in such a magnificent strucâ€" ture. ’ For some time it has been realized .that the old church in which many of ’the pioneers of the district had “to? ‘ shipped, was altogether too small for the rapidly increasing adherents of- the Methfist faith. Prelimiiary stars were at once taLen for the erection of a new and modern edifice. and with commendable enterprise work was started on the demolition of the old church, and the construction work on the handsome new edifice com- menced in May. Thursday was a red letter day in the history of the village of Oak.â€" wood. On that date the beautiful new QMethodist church (the handaomes. outside of the largest centres) was opend to the scrdce of A1- mighty God. The ceremonies in con- nection with the great function mark- ed an epoch in the history of Meth odism in the district and was looked forward to with pleasurable anticipaâ€" tion, not only by the congregaton, but the peogle of the surrounding country a: well. fiakwood’s Magnificmt Methodist Church was Formahy Opened m Thursaay OCOOOCOOOOOOOOOOOOOQOS Architect Taylor, who built the church, said how glad he was to eee everyone pleased with his work, which he had tried to do well.

After some impromptu congregational sin'fing and quartets by some of the visiting clergy, Mr. R. J. McLaugh- lin took the chair. and the evening One hundred and twenty-seven geese, fifty chickens, and bushels of Potatoes and other edibles were used. full all the time. and the crowd were admitted by the numbers on their tickets. Owing to the immense crowd, many at the back of the aisle missed their turn and had to wait till they got a chance to get near the front. One yoang man lost his lady in the crush and had to nave his supper without her. There were fifteen hundred people present, and the Ladies’ Aid realized $483.00 for their enternrise. REV. WM.

THE OLD CH “UH The old Methodist church at Oak- wood was built forty years ago by Rev. Jesse Whitlock, who was its first pastor. It was cleared of debt 3 short time after the work was completed. COMMITTEES AND ORGANI TIONS. The following is a list of the dif- ferent committees and organizations in connection with the church, each momner loyally and consistently as- sists in the works assigned to the different bodies.

The one on the left illustrates the Parable of the Bower. It was presented by Moees Webster and family in memory of Elizabeth Silverwood. A large gallery capable of seating several hundred extends over the en- trance the full width of the church. PeWS of the same design and finish as those in the auditorium have been placed in the gallery. The many winâ€" dows throw a flood of variâ€"colored light into the interior, adding an ad- ditional touch of grandeur to the sur- roundings. STAINED GLASS WINDOWS As stated above, magnificent stain- ed glass windows have been installed and they are undoubtedly as hand- some as could be found in the larger churches. ' Over the circular enclosure contain- ing pulpit and choir loft is the in- scription “Enter His gate with Thanksgiving and into His courts with praise.” The pulpit and choir loft are beauâ€" tifully arranged and carpeted in :1 design of rich green by Dundas Flavelles Ltd. The choir loft is en- closed by an oak railing of neat de- sign, while the niche for the organ is of such proportions as to permit the installation of a large church or- gan, which the congregation will in- stall }ater on. in fawn coEor, set ofi in panels with green border. Adding to the luxuri- ance and beauty of the interior are the magnificent sta'n:d glass Win- dows, generously donated by mem- bers of the congregatiOn. The walls are painted in cream ef- fect with green burlap wainscotting. relieved at the top with stained oak border. The pews are arranged in semi-circular shape. They are con- structed of oak, are modern in de- sign and were manufactured by the Globe Furniture Co., of Waterloo. awoummd Tne new church is a magnificent one of the cathedral type and is mod- ern in all its arrangements It is con- structed of red brick with a high and uniform foundation of cement blocks. Two towers, sixteen foot Square, 65 feet high and 45 feet high rear them- selves to the sky, and add artistic beauty to the structure. The two en- trances under each tower are reached by roofed cement steps which lead to the vestibule. From here three doors lead to the auditorum. @ MAGNIFICENT INTERIOR. The auditorium is a Lower of beauty with its high vaulted metal ceiling THE NEW CH URZH A ‘few days ago a I’ost representa- tive motor.d out to Oakwood in or‘ der to secure a. pen and ing replica of the new edifice.
