The average attendance during the last three years was 33. Pro-
rtionately this number is not smaller than in other sections of
ynod. Pastors and conferences with whom we consulted about the
gmall enrolment have invariably attributed it to the present building.
‘We therefore urgently request Synod to authorize the erection of
new building. An appraisal indicates that $86,000 would suftice for
is purpose. This sum would include repairs in the present building
nd a central heating-plant. It would also be profitable to purchase

rice would be approximately $19,000.

Resolved: — _ Action.
_ To appropriate $86,000 for a new administration building.

Since the enrolment of girls became so large that they could no

itory had to be provided. This was done, with the approval of the
ard of Directors, by placing together and combining two old resi-
