Sin. The members Of tho Fourth Presby-
torian Church Will make a groat mistake, 1t
scoms to me, should they persist in building
another church edillce on tho North Side. If
larger church il needed ut ali it il that tho
1naases who have no carriages, but must rely oil
public convoyances. may bo accommodated.
Common sense points to the junction Of street,
car aud omnibus limos rs tho most convenient
locality for onr largo population. Tho now
church, to be successful, must not only he cen-
tral but froe-free from tho lid-gloyo usher and
"ny-pow" system of tho so-called fashionable
churches.
