Good Church Meeting Held.
The regular quarterly meeting of
the local congregation was held in
the church basement Sunday after
noon. There was good attendance
and many took part in the principal
discussion which centered on the pos
sibility of building new Assembly
hall. A previously appointed COM
mittee rendered reports on the mat
ter. After due elaboration it was
decided to lay the matter on the
table for the time being and invited
the Young Peoples society to make
use of the church basement. 1t was
also decided to lay a new floor in the
basement of the church in case the
Y. P. S. desires it.
Relative to a new Assembly hall
it appeard that there were only two
possible locations, either on the lot
north of the church or on the rear
part of the church lot. In the event
there are favorable crop conditions
and markets this fall then the build
ing question will likely be revived;
but at the present time there does
not seem to be sufficient available
cash to proceed with the structure
