CHURCH VENTILATION.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, — As the hot weather is approaching it would be well if the authorities in our places of worship would study the comfort of the congregations with whom they are associated. The almost entire lack of suitable ventilation in sotne of the churches in this district is a subject of comment by many. As this defect can be so easily remedied, there is no excu&e whatever for the present disagreeable and unwholesome state of things. On a close evening the atmosphere in some of our churches is vitiated and almost suffocatiug, being redolent with the fumes of kerosene, and filled with the imprisoned exhalations of the congregation, and to such an extent is this felt by some, that attendance at evening service during the summer is almost given up. While appreciating the spirited provision made for the public in our places of worship, it is unquestionably neutralized by the frequent defective ventilation and consequent deficiency of Fresh Air.
