Resampled001B6E54 I 3 January 6, 1928. THE WEST VAN NEWS New Anglican Church Opened ~ Despite inclement weather, the new Church of St. Francis at Caulfeild .was crowded Sunday afternoon for the opening ser- vice of dedication conducted by his Grace Archbishop de Pencier. Set in a most picturesque loca- tion the new fallen snow rather added to the beauty of the ex- terior of the little church and within bright lights set off the charm of the simple furnishings and decorations. The lesson was read by the Rev. E. M. Searles, rural dean of North Vancouver and evensong by the rector, the Rev. A. Harding Priest. After a brief word of thanksgiving and congratulation on the effort which has resulted in this latest church of the diocese, His Grace preached a timely and helpful New Years'ermon from Jere- miah 6 and 16--"Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein and ye shall find rest for your souls." During the winter months services will be held every two weeks, the next ser- vice being Sunday, January 15 at 3 p. m. The first annual ves- try meeting will be held Thurs- day, January 12th, at 7.30 p. m. at the home of Mr. R. M. Mac- donald. NO TRACE IS FOUND OF PROFESSOR CLAY No trace has been found of Professor Milton Clay, music teacher, 1035 Granville street, who has not been seen since he left Horseshoe Bay, Howe Sound in a small rowboat to visit a friend at Sunset Beach, three miles north. Provincial Police Sergeant James Cunningham has left for the scene. He will make a thor- ough search of the locality in the hope of finding the nhissing man or his boat. Professor Clay's two sons, Reginald and Harold, returned Tuesday evening from Horse- shoe Bay after a fruitless search for their father.
