Lathrop acted as secretary. Trustees were elected for the coming year as follows: M. D.Lathrop, E. D. Lathrop and.

J. E. Burr. The reports of the various committees were read and showed the church to be in a flourishing financial condition. One "of the matters that occupied a considerable portion of the meeting was in regard to equipping a gymnasium and reading room for the men and boys of the church.

For some time past it has been thought that recreation rooms conducted along practically the same lines as the Young Men's Christian association would be beneficial to church work and would create enthusiasm among the young men and boys of the congregation, and at' the meeting held one year ago a committee was appointed to consider the feasibility of this plan. The report of this committee was read at the meeting last night by D. Crane. The committee held several meetings to discuss the matter and their report favored the plan. A special collection was taken up at the meeting and that, the members, of the congregation approve of this move was attested by the fact that $218 was subscribed for the gymnasium plan.

It was decided to also take up a collection at the morning service next Sunday. No arrangements have been made as yet for erecting and equipping a gymnasium, but there.is a piece of land at the rear of the manse on North Church street which Is considered an ideal place for a place of this kind.
