Dr. Quisenberry has put a new
life in the Baptist Church of this
city. Last Sunday was a great
day for the members .of. this
church. It was a rally day.
Efforts" will be made to build
new church sufficient to accom
modate the increased attendance
due to the Normal School. This
church has a strong membership
and there is no reason why it
should not be able to build and
equip an edifice that will be
model in church building. Dr.
Quisenberry is a veteran in this
line of work and the local church
has been very fortunate in secur
ing him for the pastorate for this
reason as well as the still greater
reason that he is a most admira
ble man and an able and con
secrated preacher. We look for
great things from this corigrega
tion. . -
