choir, as an expression of their atti-
tude toward their director, presented
Mr. Boak with a handsome stickpin
An excellant spirit prevails and a nice

The new and and old parts of the
church were packed with people and
between fifty and one hundred were
turned away, The audience manifest
ed its appreciation of the musical by
the offering they made, which amount
ed to a little over $42.
The spirit of the congregation was
eXcellant and great future is in
store for this active BODY of workers.
The building when finally completed
