Gastonia la edvanelng rapidly aloeg

Methodism is abreast ef the foremost
of the elemeelo which go to aaefce up
this feet growing (owe. People who
have takes their eyes off Oatanle for
aoy ported of two or three years within
tbs last down of tbs town’s history
have generally needed to bs lotrodoosd
anew when they have looked upon It
sgalo; aod Methodists wbo bars ant
takan the maasoro of that obarch's Id
tenets at Qistoota witltlo the last
tbres or foor years open their syci lu
surprise when they note the mage I tods
of those interests to-day.
The sborch bee nobly met the heavy
responsibilities which bays bean placed
epos it by reason of the ns.rveloa*
progress of the town. TMa progress bas
baaa so rapid daring tbs Utt three or
Coer years that plans adopted as ade
quate at the beginning of a Conference
year bare always been outgrown before
to* end of it. The church bow owns
two ehoroh build Inge, and a parsonage
as oommodioos sad oomforteMe as soy
in the Coofsrenoe. It also owns the
Oakland aed High School property,
worth about four thousand dollars.
Tbs only objections to ha wads lo

caese of the rapid growth of the tows,
admittedly too near the centre ef pop
olatlno; ead that Male Street Cbeieh
la so very leedeqaete is to else, though
not suffering at all from age, that the
fborth Quarterly Oonfenmoe decided
that It would be eecesiary to repleoe It
next year with a building Dial would
meet the necessities ef toe congrega
tion.
The board of sUwacda at tbrir lari
meeting appointed a building oomaut

Jeaklne end II. F. Baaklu, end thri
eowmittee baa gone to work with a
