The Juniors had their usual good
music, one feature being a solo by
Miss Julia Cayard. in which the choir
| Joined in the chorus. At night Mizpah
Choir was to have had special an
thems, but the Organist Miss Eta
| Pettigrove, was sick and several mem

pOintment.
The congregations were large at
| both services. The morning congre,
gregation was, perhaps, the largest
that has attended at this hour since
the present pastor has occupied the
Algiers pulpit. The Centenary of
Methodism was presented by Mr.. L.
T. Dunn. Mr.. E. E. Cayard presented
the interest of the Methodist Associa,
ton and told of the drive for new
members.
The Epworth League, MiZpah Choir,
and the Juniors went to the Naval
Station at 3 p. m, and to the Bonner
| Home at p. m, and held services.
There were perhaps forty or fifty in
the party.
The mems meeting lat the parsonage,
Monday night was full of interest.
The Board of Stewards held their
monthly meeting and conducted routine
business. The Board of Trustees held
a called session and presented some
matters pertaining to the parsonage.
The meeting then assumed a general
scope at which Che matter of the
new church building was the main
topic. After a discussion in which
Messrs. LennoX, Henning, Zatarain,
Melancon and DR.. A. C.. King express
ed the opinion that starting work on
| the building should be postponed, it
was unanimously accepted as the will
of the body. The meeting was so in
teresting that it was regretted that
the ladies had not been included in
the call.
The Centenary of Missions was
then discussed. Capt. Zatarain, chair
man of Board of Stewards heartily en-
tered into the big movement and
spoke for that body. Rev. ]. G. Sneel-
ing, Presiding Elder of the New Or
leans District, spoke and introduced
DR.. Goddard, of Nashville, Tenn. Sec
rotary of Board of Missions. DR..
Goddard's speech was, of course the
feature of the evening. His message
was full of inspiration and the hope
of victory. He said, that everywhere
he had visited the churches, from
California to Florida the movement
was gripping the hearts of the people
as nothing else had ever done. He
thought that it was born of God and
that the preachers and laymen who
are entering heartily into the move
ment will be blessed and enlarged be-
cause they are working according to
the will and plan of God. and that it
marked the end of smallness in the
church.
After the meeting everybody re-
paired to the dining room to enjoy
refreshments, prepared by the COM
mittee, Mines Warren, Zatarain, and
Miller, who were assisted in serving
by Mines. L. T. Dunn, Wier, Garrett,
Lynch and the Misses Daniels. Ladies
We thank most heartily.
