day. He was in Denton to conduct
a communion service and to preach
for the church.
He said that because of tlie short-

try and because so many of the
clergymen were going into military
service, it would be Impossible to |
obtain a regular minister for the |
Denton church at an early date.
Lay services will be continued in I
the church each Sunday morning,
with communion administered by
a visiting clergyman on one Sunday
of each month.
