at the Reformed Episcopal meeting at Col

than he had expected to. He will remain

and is hoping to be able to organize parish.
In such an event, he states that st. Johns
Church will contribute a considerable
proportion of the members, that smaller
proportion will come from the other Epis-
copal Churches of the city, and quite a
number will be drawn from other denomi-
nations. At the conclusion of the evening
service a conference meeting was held. The
only appointment definitely made for the
present week was that of a social gathering
to be held at the home of Mr.. G. J. Burgoin,
