AGREED UPON FIRST BAPTIST TO E Advisory Board Decides With- out Dissenting Vote to Con struct New Building Next Year Present Structure tq Be Torn Down Church Prospers- The First Baptist church voted last evening at its annual business meeting to erect a new church edifice. ' The church had tho 'matter in mind when it extended a call to Rev. Frederick R. Leach as pastor a year ugo, as Mr. Leacli came with a record for leading churches successfully In building enterprises. One of tho goals adopted by the church one year ago at the sug gestion of Rev. Leach was the erection of a new church within three years. The-vote at that time Was unanimous. The advisory board of the church lat evening recommended that a cam paign for pledges be inaugurated at once with a view of building next year, and that finance and building commit tees' be apiwinted to get plans for the bnilding and pledges. After an enthu siastic tdiscussion favorable to the building enterprise the church mem bers present voted without a dissent ing voice to accept the recommenda tions. The" pastor was authorized to appoint the committees which will be done and announced next Sunday at the morning service. ' A. substantial gift has been received from the Oregon Baptist state conven tion to apply on the building as a start er. , The splendid spirit existing in the church augurB well for the success of tho enterprise, . Rev. Leach will call the building committee together shortly when plans will be discussed. The talk; is that a building modern in every way, adapt ed to the growing work of the church and 'community will be erected.. De partmental Sunday school rooms' with equipment for the social activities of the young will be featured. Rev. Leach does not believe in leading a church to overbuild and leave the church with a great dellt, and with a building call ing for excessive overhead expenses, which will become a burden to the church" In the years to come. The present structure will be torn down and the new building erected on the same lot, as R is generally conefceded to be as good and central a location as can be had in the oity.; A, Successful Year The annual reports showed that the year. closed was one of the best in the history of the church. The church raised last year $7558, over $2000 of which was given to missionary objects. This was the largest amount ever given in any one year. One hundred and eight new members were added last year, exceeded by only one year in the hiBtory of the church. Two hun dred and fifty are enrolled in tho Sun day school with 225 as the largest at tendance at any 7one session and an average of 162 for the year. The church has supported a strong musical department putting some $1000 in the same under the leadership of Mr. A. Andrew Walker, who Is placing the music, on a standard that has attracted great interest In the city. The trea surer, Dr. F. O. iCarlow, reported all bills paid nnd a balance In tbo trea sury to tho encouragement of the entire church. . Plans wore outlined for the new church year by tho Rov. Leach, which calls for advanced work and a lnrgcr program. Ice cream antl cake was served at a social hour which followed the meeting.
