there.

Langside.
The annual greeting of the Langside
Presbyterian Church was held on the
afternoon of Wednesday, Feb.1st, and

makes a very satisfactory showing.
The membership of the church is now
112, nine new members having been
received during the year. Only one
member—Mary Simpson—died during
the year, as against eight who died
during 1903, The total receipts for
the year were $1,579.60. The total ex-
penditure $1,535.82. Not only is there
a small cash balance on hand, but a
number of expensive improvements
have been made and paid for—a, new
floor has been laid in the church, and
the main room fitted with new and
up-to-date seats, the old ones having
been put in the basement, which will
now serve for a lecture room. An en-
couraging feature of the financial re-
port is the way in which members
have paid up the amounts promised.
Only three sums are found in the ar-
rears column, and these are for small
amounts—$1 each.
