In 1897. when Elmer Ward Cole was
the minister aud John Tynor was the
superintendent, the membership Of
the church and of the Bible school
had increased to such proportions
that the church Luilding became in

people that sought to enter its doors.
1t soon was evident that larger
building would have to be built in
the near future.
Finally the lots on which the old
church stood were disposed of and
