Congregational Church
Holds Annual Gathering
Men of the Congregation Prepare and
Serve SYMPTOMS Supper-Varl-
GUS Societies in Good Condition

Wednesday last the Congregational
church of Sank Centre held their an
nual meeting and supper which is al
ways an event for all those connect
ed with the church. The supper was
served by the men, being also pro-
vided by them and they maintained
their reputation for quality and SER
vice. Every available seat was oc-
cupied in the large basement and the
tables set by the men lacked nothing
in the way of purple and fine linen"
and those who sat at them also "fared
sumptuously. 1t was interesting to
see staid, solid business men juggling
plates and pouring coffee but every
thing went smoothly and no dresses
were spoiled or dishes broken.
After the supper the annual meet
ing convened with the pastor as mod
orator. Attorney Conklin the clerk
read the minutes and then came the
reports Of the various activities of
the church for the year 1928. All
the reports went to show that the
church is in a healthy, active condi-
ton and many of the different organ
izations reported quite large balances
to commence the new year.
The superintendent of the Sunday
School, P. j. Heraly was given "a
rising vote of thanks for his splendid
services as superintendent of the Sun
day School for the past seven years
after the pastor had pointed out how
fortunate the church was in having
such superintendent.
Following the reports the annual
election took place: P. J. Heraly was
elected superintendent, Victor Conk-
lin, clerk; G. H. Vandesteeg, treas
urer. Trustees for a term Of three
years, Charles Bryant and George
Berggreen. P. B. Hanson was
elected deacon again for three years
and Frank S. Parker was elected as
a deacon in the place of the late o.
B. Boobar:
The chairman of the administration
committee P. B. Hanson, reported
that the every member canvas for
current expenses for 1924 had been
most successful, fifteen new subscrib-
ers being added, besides many in
creased subscriptions over last year.
There is splendid spirit of unity in
the church and the pastor says the
church is looking forward to a most
successful year.-Contributed.
