The history, of this church" dates back, to 1981 when the Rer. William Laysor was sent by Bishop Kava-naugh to preach to the people of Oakland. In 18 83. the M. E.

Sea thi wonderful group Monday Fur firimminRB For Fall street, where now stands the stately and magnificent church edifice which has been erected during the past eight montha XEW TYPE. Experts in church architecture say that this place of worship is of a new type. Hrgh steeples and gothio gables have been avoided and In their place long artistic lines and stately columns have been provided, and the building is admired by all who have inspected it.

It was designed and built by A. N. Kwe, of OakUnd. The church ia finished in beatlful cream-colored, pressed brick with steps and entrance of rich gray marble. The house contains sufficient number of classrooms for an up-to-date Sunday school, kitchen, dining-room, ladles' parlor, rent rooms, library, pastor's all modern conveniences and three sanitary drinking fountains, beside" the elegant and spacious auditorium which ia said to be the most modern and attractive In Oakland.

The color schema, which Is gray and gold, beautifully blends with the art glass, making the light exceedingly soft and mellow. -The feature of Interior ornamentation is the straight line, which la so artistically brought out as to be both unique and dignified. DONATION'S. The seating will be of noiseless, ball-bearing and sanitary opera-chairs, and the voice of the. congregation will be supported in music the rich tones of a large and splendid pipit orgah, which has been Installed In the new church as a gift to the congregation from Mrs.

C. C. Clay. The church and parsonage with equipment, together with pipe rgan. two pianos and two reed organs and, all furnishings and lots, are estimated as being worth full 1100.000.

The building of this modern church edifice In Oakland was made possible largely through a donation received from the Church Extension Board In Louisville, and by money raised throughout the Pacific Conference by: the Church Extension Commissioner, Rev. J. A. Batchelor. Besides this, the membership and many of the cltlrens of Oakland have given' liberally of their means.

With this well-equipped church plant the pastor, Harold Oovette, and his earnest band of Christian people hope to do much Tor-the religious, social and educational welfare of the people of Oakland. It is th Intention of the pastor that the ctuwrh shall be open to the general public seven days in each week. Intercourse with Qod, good literature, physical exercise and healthful food for the worthy hungry will be the order of every day. The entrance motto is "Enter without knocking and when you go away keep it up." As the church has been built as a memorial to the old pioneers of California, we here give a list of the former pastors of the congregation, several of whom were among the early pioneers themselves: William II.
