AMONG THE CHURCHES

SEATTLE, WASH.

For the best good of the Cause of Christian Science, Third Church of Christ, Scientist, Seattle, Wash., at a regular business meeting, Dec. 9, was formally disincorporated, leaving its members free to identify themselves with any organization they may desire.—Correspondence.

OGDEN, UTAH.

First Church of Christ, Scientist, of this city has purchased a lot seventy-four feet by one hundred and ten feet on the northwest corner of Twenty-fourth street and Monroe avenue, and will in the near future erect a suitable church edifice. The location is one of the best in the city. These steps are the result of the growth of Christian Science in Ogden, and are taken to provide for the steadily increasing congregations of this church, which now holds its services in the Masonic Temple.—Ogden Standard.

FORT WORTH, TEX.

While as yet First Church of Christ, Scientist, has taken no steps toward raising the money for a new church building, we expect to do so at the annual meeting of the church, Jan. 7. The church owns a very desirable lot, 100 x 145 feet, on a residence street close in town, the corner of Fourth and Lamar. The last payment was made on this property in September, a year before it was due. At present we are holding services in the dwelling which was on this lot, but as our congregation is increasing rapidly, it will be necessary for us to have more room. We hope to build in the near future a church which will cost from thirty thousand to fifty thousand dollars.—Correspondence.

HARRISBURG, PA.

The congregation of First Church of Christ, Scientist, at an adjourned special meeting last evening took final action for the purchase of a piece of ground at the southwest corner of Second and Woodbine streets. It is the intention of the Christian Scientists to erect thereon a handsome church edifice. The property fronts one hundred feet on Second street and one hundred and ten feet on Woodbine, and, being in the midst of one of the best of the newer residence sections of the city, it makes an ideal site for a church. The local Christian Science congregation was organized about five years ago.—Harrisburg Patriot.

NEWARK, O.

The members of First Church of Christ, Scientist, took possession of their new church Sunday [Oct. 10], and the first services were held at 10:30 o'clock. The new building is the former residence of Charles Follett, on Hudson avenue, and the architecture is such that it is admirably suited to the purpose for which it is intended. The front room is fitted up for a reading-room, and the result is delightful. A partition has been removed between two of the larger rooms, and this is used as the service room, the seating capacity being for about seventy-five. This meets the requirements for the present, and the other part of the building will remain the same until more room is demanded. The usual services were held Sunday, and no special features marked the occasion. Nevertheless, much interest was felt on this day and every chair was filled.
