th arrival of Rev. Blnathan Sweet, who
has recently accepted a call a assistant
pastor of th White-Temple, were cele
brated laat night In a Joint reception
given them by th congregation of the
First Baptist church. '
Rev. John Bentslen, superintendent of

of th city in a brief and witty address.
Dr. ,8. J. Barber welcomed Rev. Elnatban
Hweet in in nam or tne cnurcn. At

prudential' committee: ' ' : f
Just two year aso toda
Whltcomb Brougher reached Portland to
take pastoral charge of th First Bap
tist church of this city. At that time,
the church felt exceedingly grateful In
the - securing of Dr. Brougher for the
work at the White Temple, owing to hi
large uccases In former pastorates.
Since then he baa been able, Under the
blessing of - God, to lead th church
out Into a far larger field of usefulness
than was dreamed of by the moat san
guine of it members. Owing to these
fact, and to other hereinafter enumer
ated, we. the members of th First Bap
tist church- of Portland, Oregon, as anl
expression or our unbounded conridanc
In and sincere love for lir. J. Whltcomb

rofound gratltudthat w Jift pur
leart to ourJ-ieavenly Father for hi
glftjif-streh a leader to us. In paying
our tribute to our beloved pastor him
aslf we feel that . any words of com
mendation that we might use are In
adequate to express our firm belief in
his : earnest Christian manhood; our
warm admiration for his splendid quali
fication In th leadership of the affairs
of the ch.urch, and of our - undivided
loyalty to him and affection for blm.
Wi want to assure.hlm of these, aa he
stands at the helm In the direction of
th many activities of our church, and
aa he seeks to impart th vision of
great -undertakings to be made. in the
Lord's work. -
"All channels of th ' work of th

In these two year there have bean re

whom were baptised by Dr. Brougher.
Effective organisation of the church
forces has been accomplished and aplsn-4

Interest in the welfare of the city and
won for himself a large place in tho
hearts of many outalde of the regular

Inaugurated plana and given the most
careful attention to minute details. Th
church ha now secured two asslstsnt

other features which have been added
to the services of th church."
"When Dr. Brougher cam to us H
was with th understanding that hi
aalary be made 14,00 aa soon aa the
financial condition of .the church would
warrant th Advance. Permission to do
this ha been requested of the pastor
before this time, but b expressed the
desire that the matter be postponed.
However, the finance committee recently

condition of th church Is now such that
this agreement ahould be fulfilled and
that the pastor's present salary of

$4,000 annually. --
"Therefore, as a substantia recog
nition of our appreciation of th serv

from tha general fund of tha church."

Brougher'a request until February 8,
