BAPTIST CHURCH TO
BUILD NEW HOME
purchase Wexler Property at Maiden
Lane and Ruby--WilI Use Resi-
dence for Manse

The Baptist church OF Pullman has
hasn growing to such an extent that
has outgrown its present building,
wary department of the church has
increased. New members have been
added at frequent intervals. The
reouirements of the Sunday school
far larger facilities and the social
needs of the young people have so
multiplied that the present building
is not sufficient. Many college stu
dents are attending the various serv-
ICES and the class of Prof. NJ. X.
SNYDER has filled the room they have
been meeting in.
The question of a more modern
and commodious building was re-
ferred to Dr. A. H. Bailey, superin-
tendent of Eastern Washington and
Northern Idaho, and to DR.. Bruce
Kinney of Denver, representing the
Northern Baptist convention, for ad-
vice. These officials came to Pull
man and made very careful survey
and upon their advice and support
the church decided to erect a modern
church building that would meet it's
growing needs.
The committee appointed to secure
new location decided upon the A.
D. Wexler property on the corner
of Maiden Lane and Ruby street.
This property has now been secured
and the deal closed through the Ha-
zen, Hately & McClaskey realty firm.
This site is directly opposite the
Episcopal church and one of the
choicest in Pullman. 1t is the in
tention OF the church to move the
residence over to the side of the
property and convert it into a manse

i thurch building upon the corner. It

center for the religious life of the
Baptist congregation.
finance committee has been ao-
pointed and while its work has little
more than just begun it reports
4S00O pledged to date.
One of the fine features of the
lhterchurch World Movement is that
Ucai people, any denomination or
peopie not connected with any
Cnufcn may designate their pledges
apply to local religious mstitu-
IONS that need their support. The
financial canvass of the Interchurch
world Movement will be made April
% 70 May 2. Every individual in
eacn community will be given an op-
poFtunity to give to protestant
euiiS1ian work throughout the entire
onited States. These pledges may

uehtiy believed that many Pullman
