Current Notes

Bellevue, Ohio. —The new Christian Science church edifice recently completed was opened for service for the first time Sunday morning [April 29], with a large congregation present. The building occupies the site of the old Hilbish homestead on West Main Street. Work on it was begun Oct. 3, 1916, and the corner stone was laid Nov. 13. The main auditorium has a seating capacity of two hundred. The church has a large attendance and a growing membership. It is to be congratulated upon the completion of this new and beautiful house of worship, which represents an investment investment of over nine thousand dollars.—Bellevue Gazette.

Indianapolis, Ind.—Third Church of Christ, Scientist, which was organized a few months ago, has bought a site on the west side of Washington Boulevard, just south of Thirty-fourth Street, and plans to erect a church there. The new organization, which draws most of its members from the territory north of Fall Creek, has been meeting in the hall at Oriental Lodge Temple, Central Avenue and Twenty-second Street. Already, however, it is finding itself at times cramped in these quarters, and the membership is desirous of having its own building as soon as possible. Third Church was the outgrowth from Second Church of Christ, Scientist, which has a handsome structure at Twelfth and Delaware Streets.
