Aimee Semple McPherson's newest joy, liquidation of $65,505 in debts and notes against the church. The Evangelist touched a match to the papers atop the temple as 10,000 communicants watched from below. (hmmmm, that number seems a tad exaggerated......)

Probably late 1930s (?)

date obviously in the 1950s at a time when Sister Aimee was gone, but not forgotten. *She died in 1944
