The St. James Catholic church So
eiety has secured an option on the n.
| b. Orr property across from the church
and if the same is purchased it is quite
likely that the congregation will make
/ extensive improvements on its property
All the pews in the church are at pre-
sent rented and the capacity of the
church is not adequate to meet the de-
nlands of the size of the congregation
/ The only alternative therefor is TO build
Q new church or enlarge the old one.
The Orr property would make'an ideal
site for church edifice and it is
quite likely will be purchased.
