Sunday School to Build.
The North Seymour Mission
Sunday school has undertaken
the building of a house of wor-
ship. The time does not seem
auspicious, but the need is im-

that it would do to wait for more

has donated the ground, which
lies east of the compress and ic£
plant, and rock is being hauled
for the foundation. Enough la
hor has been donated to almost
put up the building, A subscrip-
tion list has met with a hearty
response, everything considered,
and a little over $.'{00 in money
has been subscribed. It is plan-

materials for which will cost
about $650. This will seat 250
