Camille Desrosier made an applica- tion for lines and grades in that & tlon some weeks ago, as he wished to erect a block on his property at the for a in the Children Ory FOR FLETCHER'S corner of M: and Ash stréets. Theé aldermen found that there had never been any or Y ‘established on that part of the street, dnd a hear- ing was beld on the establishment of the same. Three he in all have been held, and consids le opposition has developed in regard to the widen- mf of the road, planned by the com- mittee.

Annual Meeting of Congregationalists Held—Officers Chosen, The annual meeting of the Congre- gational church was held Thursday evening in their new church house, which was illuminated for the first time. The house has not been formally opened as yet and this was the first function held in it Before the meeting a delicious sup- per was served in the auditorium by the ladies of the church. There was a very large attendance, over 150 sit- ting down to_the tables, ‘The first business of the meeting was the hearing of reports from the many and various activities of the church. ATl the reports showed a heaithy condition and not one of the organizations showed a deficit, a truly remarkable showing. Rev. William S, Beard presided over the gathering and took occasion in his report to congratulate the church upon its new acquisition, which he said would aid in the creation of a higher spirit. and show that the kingdom of God was a reality in the community. He urged upon his hearers that the chief ministry of the church is a spir- itual ministry and commended church going as a requisite to that end. Various committees were appointed, among them the following to choose Sunday school superintendent: . 8. Boss, H. C. Murray, J. W. Hill- The following officers were Clerk and treasurer, H C. Everest; standing committee, Amos Hathaway, ‘Edgar Boss, J. L. Harroun; assist- ant_superintendent Sunday school, fa ; Sunday school secretary, y: assistant secreta Newton; treasurer, H. E. Summe sistant treasurer, Donald French; perintendent home department, Mrs. Anna Stillman; assistant superinten- dent, Mrs. A, R. Carpenter: cradle roll superintendent, Florence Bugbee: kin- dergarten department superintendent, Mrs. Helen B. Cummings. During the year 80 new members have been admitted to the church and the membership is now nearly 400, a gain of 12 over last year.
