EIGHTEENTH ANNUAL MEETING.
Members of Presbyterian Cleric Elect
Officers and Attend a Banquet.

The eighteenth annual meeting and
banquet of the Presbyterian cleric of
this city was held yesterday at the
home of Rev. DR.. 5. G. Logan, corner
of Linden street and Quincy avenue.
The business meeting began at 1870
o'clock in Dr. Logan's study where lat
er the banquet was held. Rev. George
f. Guild was elected to serve an elev-
enth consecutive term as president:
DR.. Logan, who has been president
eight years and more recently the Sec
retary for nine consecutive years, was
reelected to the latter office; Rev. DR..
c. l.. Robinson was chosen treasurer,
and Rev. j. F. Moffat, vice president.
Besides the officers named there were
present: Revs. DR.. James Mcleod.
Dunn, j. J. Rankin, of Hawley; Beech
er, of Archibald; Lindamouth, of Moo
sic: Konkol, of Peckville, and Danna,
of Scranton. BY invitation the follow
ing were present at the banquet: Rev.
Rogers Israel, of St. Luke's Episcopal
church; Rev. DIR. Joseph X. Dixon, of
the Penn Avenue Baptist church. and
Rev. DR.. c.. NJ. Gitttn, of Elm Park
Methodist church.
The spread in DR.. Logans study was
served by Hanley under the direction
of the hosts daughter, Mrs. II. A.
Knapp. 1t proved such a delightful
change from the publicity and con-
ventionality of even a private room in
a hotel that an understanding prevail
ed that the banquet of next year should
be held in the same place. 1t was the
eighteenth event of the kind in the
cleric's history.
