THE REV. DIR. GEORGE EDWARD
HALVES,
who is holding the special services

ly deprived of the ministry of it's
pastor by death, has already made a
place for himself in the hearts of
those who have been permitted to

varied experience as a pastor and

pastorates, one of which was in
Portland, Oregon; the other four

the largest churches of the denomi-

bers. He left a net membership of
1925. The contributions grew from
a yearly total of $4,000 to an an
nual budget of $4,000. DR.. Halves
has always been in demand by
churches as an evangelist. AS a
result, when he left his last pastor
ate, January 1, 1927, he entered full
time into this work. He has been in
Tennessee, Massachusetts a I'd
Pennsylvania in almost continuous
service. He comes to Milford under
the direction of the Department of
of the Presbyterian
General Assembly. He has the I'M
qualified endorsement of such men
as DR.. John A. Marquis, general
secretary of the Board of National
Missions, and of DR.. George G.
Manly, who heads the evangelistic
work of the entire Presbyterian

of DR.. Charles G. Candee, of Will
that he came to Milford.
