i iiotw ]UI First Christian William T. Barbre, minister. — The every member canvass conducted by the First Christian church last Sunday afternoon was successful beyond the expectations of those in charge. Of the members visited the pledging was practically unanimous. New pledges are coming in every day. On account of the condition of the roads no effort was made to reach the country districts last Sunday, but Just as soon as conditions permit the country members will be visited. For various reasons, a number of members In town were missed and these will be seen as early as possible. The church will enter this year In the best financial condition of. her history. The service last Sunday evening

was out of the ordinary. Instead of the minister occupying the pulpit about 25 laymen occupied a place on the platform and gave twominute reports. By the happy mood of the committee It was evident that success had crowned their efforts in the afternoon. From the reports given it was shown that the committee was received in a different manner from what solicitors are usually received. The church is planning for special services to be held during the week preceding Easter, beginning on Palm Sunday. The week will be made decision week. A special message will be given by the peator each evening and the choir will arrange special music for the services.
