representing the joint gift of Mr.. and

Sunday services are being conducted
by Albert Hirst in the basement quar-
tiers of Mrs. Amanda Davis home,
West Sixteenth avenue, she having
provided this means of housing the
Sunday-school when it was found that
the second ward fire house, undergoing
repairs, was no longer available for
the purpose. Prayer meetings are
held on Wednesday evenings of each
week with splendid attendance. By
courtesy of David Hayes, the heating

and worthy structure has come to
grace North wildwood.
