 The trust funds for the benefit of the church which began to come into the possession of the church during the. pastorate of Dr. Herr and were largely due to his influence were greatly increased during Mir Wright,s term of office and have proved of substantial benefit in the financial af- fairs of the church. A most import ant financial achievement was accom- piished during this period in the raising of funds for clearing the church of the mortgage indebtedness which had proved a burden ever since the erection of the new building. This was consumated with the burning of the mortgage note January 18th, 1908

 Rev. P. c. Wright.


 A powerful address on Blindness was delivered by Rev. P. c. Wright of Philadelphia, former pastor of the Central Baptist church, at the mems meeting in the Y. M. c. A parlors on Sunday afternoon at $.30 o'clock. The meeting was led by the general secretary, Edwin Hill, and opened with the usual song service. Secre- tary Hin offered prayer and then in troduced Rev. MT. Wright.
 Rev.. MT. Wright read a part of the 9th. chapter of St. John dealing with the restoring of sight to the blind man. The speaker said the trouble with religion these days is that we haven't the vital power of Jesus in our souls. Religion tflst doesn't come of experience is no religion. Rev. MT. Wright said that what he wants in the members of his church, in the Y. M c. A. and in any religious body is the spirit of recreation, a real ex- perience out of which religion grows The man who sees in the world the re- suits of Gods handiwork enjoys it. the better. The world is full of spiritua. and moral blindness he continued. We are dumb driven cattle when we see only what the cattle see, bWt, thank God, we were not intended to live thai way.

who. meet from week to week for Bible study with possibilities for great results
 At a time when the work of MT Wright had apparently reached that stage where wider fields of opportun- ity were opening to the church and pastor there came call for his ser vices to the Gethsemane church in Philadelphia where larger possibi1i- ties appealed to his ambition to serve his Master best and accordingly he resigned his pastorate in January 1913. This pastorate was particularly l blessed in a thoroughly united and harmonious people who responded loyally in many directions to de- votedly consecrated leadership and no church was ever left by a pastor in a more healthy spiritual or financial | condition The largest number of baptisms occurring the spring of his l resignation.
 AS was said of pr. Herr so can it also be said of MT. Wright that in l all our experiences. whether of joy or sorrow, prosperity or diversity, we found him a most sympathetic and helpful friend.
 | Call to Rev. sIoeum
 The interval between the going of Mir. Wright and the coming of his surcessory was not long as on April 24. 1913 a call was extended to Rev. Joel B. Slocum of Brooklyn N. Y.. and being accepted he began his labors as pastor. on May 4th.
 One of the most noteworthy events in the history of the church occurred not long after the coming of our pres ent pastor when the work among our Italian hrethen began in so impress siye manner in the spring of 1914 when about twenty five Italian men were found one Thursday evening in Jour prayer meeting having been led there by one of their own countrymen. who having found Christ. was very anxious for his own nationality. This work so splendidly begun by Joseph Amaudola was soon placed in charge of Joseph Carlevale a young man who only few years before had taken his first steps in the Christian life in our own church and today Is successfully conducting this work
 During the early days of the present year our hearts were rejoiced by the ingatherfng of a large number of young people also a goodly number from ol1r Italian work and the oppor- tulEty foz- large work Is within our During this period of twenty-five years the additions to the church numbered 752-4S0 being by baptism and the los in numbers 5s3-2s2 be- ing by death.
