Fine New Organ Installed

Woodhouse Methodists Will Have Better Music

About a month ago the congregation of Woohouse Methodist Church got together and decided to have a new organ installed.

The congregation appointed Mr. W. H. Buchner and Mr. Bryon Williams as a finance committee and these two gentlemen set about at once to find ways and means of providing the new instrument.

First of all they traded off their old organ and had a new one placed on approval and then canvassed the membership for contributions.

They met with a ready response and soon had the price guaranteed. The new organ was placed by Martin Bros. and proved satisfactory. The congregation has decided to accept it. The following [contributed to] the new musical instrument.
