Evening star., 1925-04-14


of Columbia yesterday held their an
nual elections for vestrymen and in
the ma jority of cases reelected the
incumbents for the ensuing year. Cen
orally there was no business accom-
plished except the elections. The
congregation of st. Stephens Church,
however, discussed proceeding with
the erection of the proposed new
church building, but decided to defer
the work pntil the sale of the present
property had been effected. At All
Saints Church, in Chevy Chase, it
was announced that the work now in
progress would provide seating ca
pacity for twice the present congre-
cation. Funds for the enlargement
are available.
The Church of the TRANSPORTATION
which was created a separate parish
by the diocesan convention last Feb
ruary, held its first Easter Monday
meeting. At the Church of the AS
Cension, the young people of the
church were given recognition on the
vestry by the election of Leslie c.
