CHURCH MERGER
AGREED UPON

- The congregation OF the Woodward
ave. Congregational church, in spe-
cial meeting Wednesday evening, yot.
ed unanimously to merge the inter
ests OF that church with those OF the
North Woodward Congregational
church. This action consummates the
union OF the two congregations as the
North church had already expressed
Itself in favor or the plan.
While the union Is now effected
the work Of the two churches will go
on as at present until the sale OF tho
downtown property. IL Is said by the
congregation that there Is no neces-
sity for a forced sale, and the com.
mittee in charge will await until an
advantageous disposition OF the church
property can be effected: The first
formal meeting In recognition OF the
union will take place Easter Sunday.
The Rev William Bryon Forbush
~ d.. pastor OF the down town church.
and the Rev Carl Sumner Jones. OF
the North church. will continue as
joint pastors, each taking that share
in the WORK for which he is best adapt
ed. Mr.. Jones. who possesses great
executive ability. Will probably have
much 10 do with the erection OF the
new church building. and Dr. Forbush
will take up the work among the
young people. The preaching and pas
tora duties Will probably be divided
equally between them.
