The church section of the building runs east and west so that at no time does direct sunlight fall on the body of the church. The feeling of coolness is enhanced by the blue cathedral glass of the full win= dows.

The Question Of The Future In Poetry Speeding his probing envoys into dizzy space, Man, crying for the moon with no impotent cry, Bids fair to conquer. Soon perhaps this earthly race Will roam moon-valleys or foes on red Mars descry, Or-they say could be-on star uncharted, behold, With awe, Unfallen Man in Eden innocence That looks on the face of God, and with fear grow cold, Sudden aware of sin and need for penitence. Then might these stainless ones, in wonder wide-eyed, Hear travellers' tales of earth at Christmastide And, hearng, plumb afresh the depths of Love Divine, Pondering Faith and Mercy, their clear eyes ashine With sweet touch of envy of faith -dowered -ones who see,
In crude bambino laid on straw, God's majesty.
-Eily Mac Adam.
