REPORTS FOR YEAR.
Despite the Severe Cold Weather
There was a Large Attend
ance and Much Enthusiasm.

The annual meeting of the first Bah
tist church of Bennington was held
Monday evening. Despite the cold
there was good attendance and a
real warmth of enthusiasm. The pas
tors report showed the church to be
in good working condition which
would seem to open up larger possi-
bilities for the future. He reported a
Bible study club, an inquiry class,
and mission study class, meeting at
different periods during the year.
Thirty-four have been added to the
membership: 10 by letters from other
churches "a by baptism The total
membership reported by the clerk is
379.
The treasurer's report showed that
S5,S3S had been paid out during the
year; 81, 975 for current running ex-
penses, -, 22l on the new building
fund; S642 for denominations benevo-
lences. The Sunday school, the Wo-
ma1's societies and Young Peoples
societies have gathered abou, $3.50 ad.
ditional, thus making the total ex-
penditures of the church du ing 1903
for work at home and abroad, sc, 4S8.
The superintendents of the depart
ment of the Bible school reported an
enroll ment of 26O in the main and pri-
mary department, and 81 on the cradle
roll; total of 357. To do its best
work the school needs larger corps
of teachers.
The Ladies aid society reported
twenty-five social meetings the object
of which has been ito promote 'socia-
bility among the ladies of the church
and help strangers make friends
among u.s." The society has raised
and paid out $500 during the year for
recarpeting of the church.
The woman's missionary society re-
ported definite study of nilsson fields
at home and abroad, about 800 raised
for the work, two barrels of clothing
sent to needy sections in the Eome
field.
The Y. p. S. c. E. reported large
membership a comparatively large
average attendance of 80 at the PRAYER
meetings. Delegates were sent to the
Silver Boy mission conference and
the annual county c. E. conference
and to the Rutland Baptist Union con-
ference.
The Juniors reported $3.50 for mis-
sions and nearly $40 for the local Y.
M. c. A. Several of the older mem
bers of the society become members of
the church during the year.
The following officers we're elected
for the ensuing year.
Clerk, Wills T. White; treasurer.
DR. f. S. Pratt. A. B. Sibley and A.
0. Edison were elected trustees for
term of three years. A. F. Loomis
was elected deacon for a period of
seven years.
The church adopted an advance fin |
ancial policy in accord with which an |
income compittee was appointed to |
make a canvas of the entire member
ship to secure at the earliest possible |
date pledges for weekly offerings suf-
hcient 10 meet the total estimated ex- |
penses for 1904. From the total |
amounts paid during 1902 and 1903
this would not seem a difficult under
taking and would certainly be bust
nesslike way of handling church
finances.

The block is exceptionally handsome and is

in the sale of this property in the enforcement
OF the following restrictions, which made
for the protection of all and which, we have
no doubt, will add much to the value of the
eTs.
No lot will be sold for any but residence
properties, including not more than two flats.
No stores. churches, stables. coal yards or
any objectionable buildings. The manner Of
enforcing these restrictions will be explained
fully at office.
The idea is to make it possible for you to buy
a lot and build a home without being ruined
or damaged by neighboring buildings. Thou
sands of people in this city who have built de-
sirable homes have had them ruined by three
story flats. stores. coal yards etc. Owing to
the restrictions and the large lots, this block
will be built up into select residence property
and will become very valuable.
1t will pay you to buy large lot instead Of
a 25-foot lot. as you can save the price OF the
extra land in the cost of your building, and be-
sides this secure abundance of light and
sun and build more artistic home.
