Mary BAPTIST CHURCH The officials of the church had a very stimulating supper-session last Monday evening in the Presbyterian dining rooms, with Dr. Fred A. Agar, one of the secretaries of the General Board of Promotion, from New York, who laid before the group a principle and method of financing the church and all of its departments as it enters into the new building. Dr. Agar is the apostle of better methods of church management-,-and a higher spiritual interpretation of Christian steward- ship, and is in great, demand from coast to coast. His visit this week will prove very beneficial to the church,-as-it-pla-ns for the making of its budget for the new year, which will be adopted during the month of April. urc On Sunday morning a unique ser- 44ceâ€"ofâ€"Easter:â€"worshipâ€"__has__ planned, which will commence promptly at 11. The musical program will consist of two solos by Mrs. Roy F. France. "Open the Gates of the Temple"... "^TTTrrrrrr......,'............ Knapp "Hosanna".................. Gramer There will be two anthems by the church double male quartet, as fol- lows : "He Is Risen".................Nevin "The Strife Is O'er"........... Salter A brief sermon by the pastor will be followed by the giving of the hand of fellowship to a large number of new members who are coming into the church at this time. A baptismal service was held last .Sunday afternoon at the Evanston church, and is to be followed by an- -oiher such seryice aJL3.o'clock..Sun-, day; TKe pastor's mid-week Bible class at 7:30, Wednesday, will be resumed next week after a lapse of two weeks, during the special Lenten services of the church. The topic for considera- tion at the mid-week meeting, March 30. will be "After Easter, What?" and at this meeting the nominating com- mittee for the year will be elected by the church. The Bible-school established a new record for promptness at the session last Sunday morning, when 92 jSer cent of those in attendance were in thehrpTaces before ~the~ opening hour had arrived. This is the result of a continued campaign for promptness which has quite revolutionized the spirit of the school. Mr. Stifler goes to Bay City, Mich., Wednesday evening to conduct con- ferences on Young People's Work at the annual Convention of Sunday School and Young People's workers of Michigan. During his former pastor- ate at Saginaw Mr. Stifler was for a time the chairman of this convention.
