Any errors in these facts may be corrected if any of our readers will write to The Times and Guide noting such errors, and the following record will therefore be even more valuable as this hisâ€" torie old church continues its service to the community. This record is in the hand writing of the late Geo. Lyons, dated Dec. 14th, 1923. The following facts taken from records of the late George Lyons Rectors Appointed MA!IN N.

FRED ENGLISH WESTON AND BRAMPTON The church has stood in its beauâ€" tiful setting as aâ€"centre in storm and calm, in prosperity and depresâ€" sion. It has stood for those high ideals that make life worth living. It has given leadership and force through the men and women who have been taught the true ideals of life. Thus we, the citizens of the community, take this opportunity of expressing to the Rector, the officials and the members of the congregation our hearty congratuâ€" lations upon the ministration and services given over the past one hundred and fifteen years. One hundred and fifteen years of service and ministration has been the record achieved by the congreâ€" gation of St. Philip‘s Church. Durâ€" ing that long period there have been many changes. Those who laid the foundation have passed on to their reward. Those who carry on today are building upon that foundation so well laid. Each in his own way, down the ages, have made a contribution. All%ave and now are exerting their influences upon our community life. Today we are the better because St. Philip‘s has exercised its influence upon the community life and sent out many to carry on their true citizenship in other communities. St. Philip‘s Church Reaches 115th Milestone On Sunday, June 6th, hisâ€" toric_ St. Philip‘s, Etobicoke, adds another milestone to the story of the years and celeâ€" brates its 115th anniversary.

This Church was of frame construcâ€" tion and was erected on land donated by Ed ward and Thomas Musson. No records are available until 1831, when Dr. Phillips, one time viceâ€"principal of Upper Canada College, became the first incumbpent.

Not only did he minister faithfully for twentyâ€"four years, but in the early sixties he opened a Church school for boys, which later became known as Trinity College School. The late Sir William Osler, who registered at the school in 1866 was one of its most illustrious pupils. In 1871 the school was reâ€" moved to Port Hope where it has been conductedâ€"since that time. In May, 1888, the first St. Philip‘s was burnt to the ground, being ignited by sparks from a burning house across the road. A new pipe organ lately installed, was fortunately saved by the valiant efforts of volunteer firemen. After being rebuilt, the cost borne by Miss Sarah Wadsworth as her contribuâ€" tion to the new Church, this organ is still in use toâ€"day. The church was reâ€"built in 1894 and through the efforts of friends and adherents was opened free of all debt. This time it was a Gothic building of brick. Set as it is in a perfect little English churchâ€" yard, surrounded by trees and shrubs, it is much admired for its architectural beauty, and mellow colouring. The. bell, which was placed in the tower by the women of the congreâ€" gation is considered to be one of the finest in Canada. On looking through the parish register from the time the new church was opened, many men who have since become prominent in Church life are notéd as having taken services at St. Philip‘s.

The surveying of the new plot was the gift of Mr. Vernon Wadsworth. In 1939, on Easter Day, a new desk prayer book was dedicated to the memory of Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Lyon and their â€"son Laurence S. Lyon. This being given by Mr. and Mrs. MacDonald Lyon. A silâ€" very bread box was also given in memory of Mrs. G. M. Lyon, the gift of Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Evans. Both Mr. Lyon and his son acted as church wardens for many years, and Mrs. Lyon was a faithful W.A. member, and untiring in her zeal for St. Philip‘s. > A new carpet donated by members and friends of the church was used for the first time that same Easter day. This together with a brass book rest given by Mr. and Mrs. ~Alvin®~ E. Smith and In 1920 a reâ€"distribution of the Mimico Glebe monies gave St. Philip‘s a new financial stability and in June of that year the Rev. Frederick Robâ€" ertson was inducted as the first rector.. Mr. Robertson ministered faithfully for ten years, and during his minâ€" istry two Mission Churches were opened entirely free of debt. These are St. Andrew‘s, Thistletown, and St. Matthias, Scearlett Rd. and both are striving to fill the needs of their growing communities. During the last few years, many â€"beautiful gifts and memorials have been added to the church. In June, 1934, a tablet was erected in memory of the Misses Elizabeth and Emma Chew. On Aug. 5th, 1935, a stained glass window, given by members of the family was dedicated to the memory of Mr. and Mrs. William and Charles Grubbe, both faithful Church. memâ€" bers, the former having been a church warden and a lay delegate to Synod for many years. In June, 1936, a very handsome lighting system, together with three brass vases, were given by Mr. and Mrs. Graeme Gibson Adam in loving memory of" their daughter. These were dediâ€" cated by Bishop Renison at the 108th anniversary service. The Church celebrated its centenary in June, 1928, and two years later Mr. Robertson retired, much to the regret of his congregations. _On the 1st July of that same year, the Rev. T. B. Butler became rector and was the first to occupy the new rectory built on Scarlett Rd. He and his good wife have laboured in the parish for 13 years untirâ€" ingly and have rendered faithâ€" ful service. C 9h. 0.: LE PAGES‘ FOOD MARKET LAYTON LINGERIE SHOP BARBERS TAX!

The interior roofing of «the Church was finished with the old hammer beams, on the end of which were plain wooden shields. In 1941 these were replaced by others bearing the Coats of Arms of Church and State. These are most colorâ€" ful, and were the gift of Major and Mrs. Wilkes and their family, the work being done by the major â€" himself. _ Last Christmas a new desk prayer book was: added, the gift of Mr. and Mrs. C.
