FIRST METHODIST
PROTESTANT, NOW
NEAR COMPLETION
New $4,000 Edif1ce One of the
HandsOmest Houses of
Worship Here.

The new $40, 900 ediflce being finished
after plans drawn by Charles Granville
Jones, the architect, for the First
Methodist Protestant Church flock. at
Clinton and Treacy avenues, the only
church of hat denomination In this
city, is proving to be one OF the most
attractive church buildings that lave
been erected by the Methodist Or any
sister denomination In ear
As the edifice has been erected on a
plot 80 by SO feet that faces one OF the
most desirable corner sites in the ex-
elusive Clinton section, 1t presents a
commanding appearance and has been
the subject Of considerable favorable
comment. The style of architecture Ii
also OF a most artistic and uncommon
character, and, while the new building
has been designed on lines to conform
with the plan of h old church that
was erected in 1906, 1t nevertheless
possesses q decided distinctiveness in
design and an open-arched loggta at the
main entrance that gives the whole a
most classical outline. The material
used in its construction was Indiana
limestone and shingles, with a roof
Gaping Of slate.
The interior trim of the main audito-
rum is OF chestnut, and the ceiling
OF wood and exposed truss work.
In the basement OF the new building
the Sabbath school will hold sessions,
as the lighting and heating equipment
has been given special attention. In
the auditorium a chancel has been
placed and back of this the organ has
been located. The pastors study and a
choir room have also been provided.
The seating capacity of the audito-
rum will be 500, and when the sliding
partitions are open. connecting the old
with the new church, the total seating
space will be over $50. A feature Of the
structure is the eighty-foot stone tower.
topping the church at the corner.
Every feature of the work shows
careful supervision and it's complete
ness in detail is what has won the ap-
prevail of the Clinton Hill constituency.
Francis A. Dey, OF the building COM
mittee, has been a leading factor In
supervising it's construction.
The other members of the committee
are Edwin A. Kirch, Louis A. Peal. the
pastor, the Rev. w. s.. Phillips, and
r. J. Goerke. The combined church
and the large plot represent a valuation
of 500. 900.
The assistant pastor, tho Rev. ]. A
Weigand, is entitled to a share Of the
credit.

'Will you consent to a divorce if l

She looked at him with dismay.
There was tragic tenseness in this

"A divorce?' she stammered. why,

Mrs. Leeds met Billy Leeds when he
came to Harvard from his Lakewood
home in the fall of 1906 Billy paid
her much attention. While his col
lege friends are not surprised to learn
that he has married the girl of his
college affections, they did not know
that he was planning to be welded
just now.
Billy Leeds is the son of a wealthy
family. At Harvard it was evident
from the luxurious life he led that he
had plenty of money. He did not fin
ish his college course, but left Har-
ward in the spring of 1908, his sophie

Holds Up Glass to Lonely Gotham

lew YORK.-"This city is so lone
~ ly; among these millions there is
so little fellowship and sympathy; in
the midst of all this wealth you are
all so poor, with so many labor-sav-
ing devices you all work so hard, with
this great possibility of knowledge
you know so little. with such splendid
chances at life you merely exist, with
chance to fly you merely crawl"
This is the result of a bit of "ob-
serving and philosophizing" by Rev.
r. D. Sawyer of Ware, Mass, who has
just paid his first visit to New York
city. He came with the avowed in
tention of spending a fortnight's yaca-
ton in studying the denizens of tene-
ment. fat and hotel. His impressions
are given in a Statement to New
Workers. OF which the foregoing
forms a part.
You New Workers are a people OF
paradoxes," says Mr.. Sawyer; you
spend time on tying the ties, fixing the
hair, the hat, the raiment, as though
it were New York's custom to look
every person carefully over, and then
you go out looking neither right nor
left being careful to observe nobody

In your subway, you run, crowd,
jostle to get the express, you crowd
in and stand up for a ride of FIVE
miles-all to save five minutes, and
you lounge away a half hour at the
end, for you really had no reason to
hurry.
You are lean, hungry-faced. You
go to the theaters as one would be ex-
pected to go to a funeral You take
your pleasures as seriously as a high
school boy takes his Greek. never
find the intertwined arms, the saunt-
er, the mirth among you, even when
you are OF duty.
The only great thing find in New
York is your engineering. The great
thing about New York is the city, not
