Baptists’ New Organ
Great pleasure is experienced
by those attending the Baptist
services now held in the McIntyre
Hall, by the excellence of the new
organ which adds very much to
the welcoming air of the Baptist
Church services. Last night the
congregation worshipped in the
new quarters again, and held an
enjoyable service, the address by
Rev. W. H. McLeod being much
appreciated. Experienced organ-
