LETTER OF RESIGNATION.
Read by Rev. w. q. watkins at
the Service in the North Main
Avenue Baptist Church.

Following is the letter Of resignation
of Rev. w. q. Watkins, of the North
Main Avenue Baptist church, read by
him to the congregation Sunday even
ing:
To the North Main Avenue Baptist
Church.
Beloved Brethren: After a pleasant
and l trust, profitable relationship as
pastor and people, extending over a pc
riod of nearly seven years, / have ar
rived at the conclusion that my useful
ness as your pastor has reached its limit.
L therefore, hereby tender my resigna-
ton, the same 10 take effect with the
last Sunday in June of this year.
1 might have deferred this for some
time, but l do not wish the church TO
undertake any project such as building
on my account; nor do l wish to lead the
church in such an undertaking without
a reasonable probability of my remain
ing here to carry 1t to its completion
1t is better, therefore, for me to resign
before such an important measure is
commenced than to wait until it has been
started and then leave you in the midst
of it.
With the advent of a new pastor will
come also new enthusiasm which will
enable you easily to realize your cher
| ished hope. In short you go forward.
You have everything to encourage you.
| AS you stand today, you need about Sl2,-
| 900 to put you in possession of one of the
| neatest and most commodious houses of
| worship in this end of the city. This
seems considerable sum. But let me
| remind YOU that one member alone
stands pledged for nearly one-half of
| this amount, or. to be exact, $500. If
| there Is anything which should fill this
| church with a sense of appreciation and
| gratitude it is the fact that 1t has in
| its membership friend so staunch who
! in proportion to his means gives toward
it's support more largely than the much
| lauded millionaires contributes towards
| their various benevolences.
This is farthest from a reflection upon
| others, for besides him, there are indeed
in our fellowship other royal souls who
would grace any church, though they
may not be so capable financially. But
| have singled out my unfailing friend
and brother, William Chappell, simply %
show that the church can bear what may
appear to be a heavy burden when one
out of about 800 assumes hair OF 1t him.
self.
| If the remainder of the membership
will not pledge and secure the other hall
| of this amount the church will not de-
serve much help or sympathy from the
community.
Rejoicing in tho peace and harmony
which always characterized our union
and thanking God fervently for Iii.
smiles and blessings, which have Cvel
been upon us, pray that His favor may
be manifested toward you still more
abundantly in all the future, And the
peace of God, which passeth all under
standing, shall keep your hearts anC
minds through Christ Jesus" (Phil. iv, y
Affectionatey your pastor,
W. G.. Watkins.

Methodist church was comfortably fill
ed last night by the members of the

not more than, that of last wear. The
highest bid recorded was 5000 and the
next highest $500, both for the same
member. The sale will be conducted
again tonight, as many of the men,
bers Of the congregation were prevent
ed attending by the rain. About one

1t Is estimated that there will be d de-
felt OF $4,000 I'm the general school ac-
count at the end of the present year.
This must be provided for in the revenues
of tho next year and may therefore be
fairly considered as part OF next years
expenditures. This added to the total
amount of the appropriations makes n
amount required for general school pur-
poses.
A lew OF 1917 mills on the estimated
valuation of s22 500 after deducting per
cent. for generations and collections,
will yield the sum of $233, 52I50. Adding
to this the same state appropriation as
was received last year, viz, SI3,313.SS, we
have an estimated revenue of $500, ,9Ol.3s,
which is s5,9S6.3s more than the esti-
mated requirements.
We consider this fortunate, however,
as the experience of each year has shown
that there are always some unexpected
and unforeseen expenses which cause
deficit when the revenue is only equal
TO the anticipated requirements.
DIVISION OF LEVY.
The 13 mills for the sinking fund, the
2 mills for the building account and 1917
mills for the general school account
make a total of IA mills the same as
last year. Your committee would there
fore recommend that said levy of IA mills
be made for the ensuing school year and
that the distribution and appropriations
as herelnbefore set forth be adopted by
the board.
This levy of II mills on the assessed
valuation of s22 900 will produce, after
allowing for generations and collections,
the sum of $685. $50. Adding to this the
state appropriation of S73,373.SS and the
estimated balance in the building ac-
count of $4,000, we have total esti-
mated resource of the year amounting
to s410. .923SS to meet the estimated eX-
penditures, including the estimated de-
| count, of siOi065

INDUSTRIAL JoTTINGS.

The final step in the closing down
Of the breaker at No. colliery OF the
Delaware and Hudson company, at
Plymouth, was taken Saturday. The
company has been considering this
matter for sometime. The breaker is
very old and would have to be mate
rally altered in line with the other
changes made this year at all colieries.
This would mean too big an expense,
so the breaker will be abandoned and
the coal mined at that colliery will be
taken through a tunnel connection into
No. workings adjoining and run
through No. breaker, which is prac-
tically modern. This means a great
saving for the company outside.
There will be one less breaker
to operate and keep in repair and
they will not have to use the
Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern company's tracks to run the coal
over to their own line. The break II
employees will lose their work here, but
it intended to employ them elsewhere
as soon as possiblee. This breaker
has been in operation since 1858 and
the Delaware and Hudson company
has controlled it since the late sixties.
An innovation apparently Of no mate
rial interest, but which may be but
a step to something else, was insti-
tuted yesterday by the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western company.
