Current Notes

Monrovia, Cal .—Although not planning to build at once, the members of First Church of Christ, Scientist, have determined to improve their recently purchased building lots, in advance of the actual erection of the church. Consequently they have fenced in the two lots, which are situated on East Palm, directly south of the high school, and have cultivated the ground and sown it to wild flowers. The most recent improvement is that of planting fifty rose-bushes and eight ornamental trees. From two unattractive, weedy lots the property has been transformed, and it will soon be covered with varicolored bloom.—Monrovia News.

Hermosa Beach, Cal.—Gratifying growth has been experienced by the Christian Science Society. Though only recently organized, the society has increased in membership so rapidly that already the chapel and reading-room on Sixteenth street is proving inadequate to care for the needs of the congregation.—Hermosa Beach Review.

Bellingham, Wash.—The building fund of First Church of Christ, Scientist, has now grown to such an extent that an announcement has been made to the effect that a new church will be built next year on the lots owned on Broadway street. The building will cost somewhere between seven and ten thousand dollars.—Journal-Progressive.
