Methodist Church Cleared Of All Debt In Town
Church officers announced the retirement of all mortgaged indebtedness on the building. A public ceremony will burn the mortgage. The drive began mid March under Rev T J Pryor and raised about 7000, with 4000 from Myrtle Point and county donors. Funds from the Home Missions and Church Erection board will cover 3500, leaving the church debt free. The 1923 building was led by soliciting committee O H Clarke and A A Schriefer with Rev C E Brittain as pastor since July 1, replacing Pryor now at Canyonville.
