Waldo, Ph.D., whose resignation aa pastor of the Whit Temple haa recently been an nounced, -has received and accepted a unanimous call ' from the First Baptist church of CorvaJHs. He haa Also been consulted aa to a special lectureship in the Oregon Agricul tural collegev within a block of tha church. The student body of this great institu tion, numbering from SS00 to 4000, makes av powerful appeal to Dr. Waldo, the more especially that he has two sons now ready for college, which, with -the many opportunities offered for service ' by that institution, greatly enhances this call, so that taken alt together he has announced his entire satisfactiop with the call. " FIELD IS IMPOBt AJCT "The Corvallls church haa a strong ap peal of its ovssi, owing to its strategic position beside one of the greatest edu cational institutions of the state and the fact that it la equipped with the best working Baptist plant in Oregon outside of one or two of the Portland churches," said Dr. Waldo. ."The church haa es tablished a reputation aa one of the most efficient and intensive groups of mem bers, in the entire West. "It waa the first Baptist church in tre state to. Iro over the top In the recent New World movement, raising an allot ment of $20,000 for that movement and another $20,000 for the enlargement of equipment. The present building is very unique and commodious and its appoint ments. Just erected two years ago and having now a seating capacity of ap proximately 1200, which will be greatly increased by the added lmprovementa. ZYAKGELlSTIC WORK IWTITINO "It goes without saying that this live church with its splendid facilities and eninuaiasuio coryn oi wgrisrr unci opportunity for evangelistic effort and assures a position of wide usefulness among the leading churches in the state." Dr. Waldo's going to Corvallls be speaks the functioning of that church in the student body. It will give atxo to Che church an -unusually wide sphere of influence, aa IS slates were repre sented la the student body last year, and this probably wJU be Increased. Sunday, according to F. C. Griffin, who' is assisting Ira V. Powers, in charge of the automobile supply, and a like num ber is "expected today. Griffin is en thusiastic about the way In which Port land people have responded to the call for machines, and hia appeal is that it be kept up during the entire week.
