PASTOR FORMS
HIS OWN Church
Rev. Elias Anger to Start
Services Sunday in Ken
nett Square Hall
WILL EMBODY IDEAS
OF LINCOLN, HE SAYS

Having been ousted as pastor OF
the First Baptist Church. at Ken
nett Square. by the trustees OF the
church at a meeting on Wednesday
night, the Rev. Elias Auger. held a
meeting in Library Hall. Kennett
Square. last night when plans were
discussed for organizing COM
munity church. II was announced
that the first service OF the new
church would be held on Sunday
morning at 10 o'clock in Library
Hall with Mr.. Anger as minister.
Asked II he had any influential
hackers for the new church, he
responded that he had the people
in general with him. and that was
all he needed. He declared the
working people OF the town were
with him. and that together they
would organize a church that would
embody Bincoln's idea OF church.
Though he said he thought his
congregation had not treated him
fairly in breaking an agreement
that he was to resign on March 81,
the board OF trustees must have re-
carded the agreement ''as scrap OF
paper" he declared. but he would
not fight the dismissal.
The break between Mr.. Anger and
, the church officials came over dif-
ferences that existed between the
trustees and deacons OF the church
and the pastor. which date back
many months He criticized mem
bers and the inter-church move
ment. Pastor Anger maintained that
the quota set for the church. S21,-

money was needed in the church

POUND LOAF NOW

The price OF the large loaf Of
bread has been reduced one cent by
some OF the leading bakers OF vii
nnington. This makes the retail
price Of the large loaf 13 cents.
"Wilmingtonians have cheaper
bread than any other part Of the
country" said a man who has
studied the situation today. Take
Chicago, for instance. There the
law requires a loaf OF bread to
weigh at least a pound, as It does
in Delaware. The retail price OF the
pound loaf in Chicago is II cents
In wilmington It is 10 cents. II Is
true that in Philadelphia bread sells
for 10 cents a loaf. but it is light
weight, does not weigh a pound. !

that wilmingtonians get more bread
