Christ Church

While Auburn Seminary was in session a theological student came over to conduct the church services, during the early part of the summer, Mr. Mitchell a former Y. M, C. A. secretary, was at the Republic, as friend and adviser, as well as preacher until the time of his vacation, when Mr. Stevens assumed charge. This fall it was decided that we needed a man, who should work both in the church and the gymnasium, and the right one has been sought through many disappointments. It is not fully settled at the time of writing, but when he is found, we hope it will solve many of our problems. The organized S. S. classes are well attended and the midweek meeting attracts a large proportion of the citizens while the meetings at the two jails, on Tuesday evening and late Sunday afternoon, are necessarily fully attended, but are especially enjoyed, for vital topics are discussed and hymns aie sung which are dear to their hearts. A felt need is the organization of the church which is difficult owing to the different creeds, but a workable plan has been adopted and will be fully reported next year.
