there because he is a Unitarian. The

A Preachers Economy.

Kalamazoo, Mich, May 15.-Ser-
vices are being held weekly in the
old building Of the North Presbyterian
church in this city while the outer
walls are half demolished and the ce-
ment block walls Of new house Of
worship are rising about it. This sit
uation is due to the practical ideas of
the Rev. George Adamson, the native
Scotch minister, who decided that
while the large new structure was In
process Of building It would be ex-
travagant to rent hall. Accordingly,
as the new walls went up the old mis-
sion church was torn apart until the
merest shell remained, and in this the
congregation has met. 1t is expected
that the new church will be dedicated
in September.
