the church would be no longer ham
pered by inadequate quarters. Not
only was this agreed to, but the con-
gregatiOn settled in general way
what these engagements will amount
to and plans were laid for starting
work within the next month or six
weeks.
The plans call for the removal of
the residence adjoining the church on
Main street and which is the property
of the church, to a lot on Jackson
street This will leave one of the
largest and most attractive building
and the present building will be moved
to the center of this lot. leaving d
spacious lawn on either side
The framework Of the present struc-
ture will be left intact, but large addi-
lions will be made at the rear and on
each side near the rear to provide
for some eight spacious Sunday school
rooms. Part of these rooms will be
connected by large doors with the
main auditorium. so that they may be
made a part of the main auditorium
whenever occasion requires an excep-
tiOnally large seating capacity.
The front of the present building
will be entirely remodelled, and it is
probable that the sides, which are at
present of frame, will be replaced with
stucco or brick. Considerable work
looking toward the improved attract
iveness of the interior also will be
done
These are the plans, in general of
the pastor and the congregation. The
details are being mapped out now and
within a few weeks, at most, the con-
gregation will have determined ex-
actly what they will do to make this
church one of the most comfortable
and attractive in the city.
