Fall Session Lexington Presby-
terry.

fdll SESSION Lexington fItSDy
3 terry.
, The Presbytery of Lexington
+ met in regular fall session at Rock,
, Springs church near Decrfcld
, Tuesday, Oct. 18th, at II a. IN.
, and the opening sermon wa
preached by the retiring moderator
Rev. VIM. N. Scott, ID. D., o.
Staunton, from Second Timothy
40: "Preach the Word"
About sixty ministers and elders
were in attendance on Presbytery
The Rev. j. G. Johnston was
elected moderator, and the Rev.
DR.. Druer and Ruling Elder
Gilkeson were elected clerks.
Much of the time of Presbytery
was spent in discussing its great
home missionary work and reports
full of encouragement as to the
outlook and promise of the work
in the West Virginia fields were
made by brethren laboring at those
points. The Rev. A. Fl. Hamilton,
the agent Of the Presbytery to raise
the money for the Elkins, W. Va,
college, reported progress in his
work. About 1923, 900 Of the $780,
600 needed has been secured. Mr..
Hamilton will continue his work
to completion,
A matter engaging the earnest
attention of Presbytery was the
proposed division Of the Synod of
Virginia, which will probably
come up for some definite action at
the meeting of Synod next week in
Norfolk. After an earnest debate
in which prominent part was taken
by Drs. Finley, Fraser and Whal-
ing, the sense of the body was
taken and it appeared that 30
favored division and % We're OPP
posed.
Several young men, after exami-
nation, were received as candidates
for the ministry. The following
brethren were put in nomination
for the general assembly which !
will convene next May in Lexing-
ton: AS principal commissioners,
Rev. DR.. Whaling and |
Rev. j. II. II. Winfree, and ruling
elders, j. A. Waddell Of StauntOn,
and Col. w. T. Poague Of LeXing-
ton.
The Rev. j. Spencer Smith was
received into the Presbytery on
certificate from the Presbytery of |
Wilmington, and accepted Il call to
the Fairfield church. The install
lation will take place in November.
COllierstown church received |
permission to continue the Rev.
X. NJ. Tuttle, as stated supply,
until the next stated meeting of
the Presbytery.
The sessions Of the Presbytery |
were largely attended, and with
evident interest by the good people
of that beautiful valley. The
church was generally filed to its
capacity, not only at preaching
time but during the business SEES
sions of the body. Preaching was
had every night at several points
in the vicinity as well as at Rocky
Springs church, and was well at
tended. The hospitality Of the
people was beyond all praise, and
the members of the body were
made to feel that the visit Of Pres
bytery was an event full of interest
to all the people.

Last Weeks Football Games.

" Eastern COlleSe IOOLDall uehlH
Front Royal, Va, came to Lexingto
: last Friday and we're easy victims
Washington and Lee, the score bein
81 to 0 in twenty and fifteen minut
halves. The visitors had no sho'
from start to finish, and their effort
hardly furnished good practice TO
the home team. The first touchdown
, was made within one minute after tn
game opened. The visitors had tn
ball only twice during the entir
game, and were then unable to gain
OF the nine touchdOwns secured two
were made by DAVIS on, two by Ross
and one each by Smith, Campbell, Hav
and Harle. Campbell also kicked
goal from the 20 yard line.
The lineup of Washington and Lee
was: Dawson, right end; Harle, right
tackle; Howell, right guard; Stone
center; Sterrett, left guard; Mcneil
(captain) left tackle; Smith (Smiley),
left end; Marshall, quarter back
Campbell, left half back; Haw, right
half back; Ross, full back.
GEORGETOWN DEFEATS V. NJ. 1.
The Virginia Military Institute
football team played the Georgetown
University team on the grounds Of
the latter Saturday afternoon, and
were defeated by the score of % to
II in twenty-five and twenty minute
halves.
Weight and experience were re-
sponsible for the victory of the home
team, and although defeated, the
Virginians have every reason TO be
gratified at the game they put up.
Their play was fairly steady
throughout and brilliant at times
Barring a generally prevailing ten
dency OH the part of the Virginia
Military Institute to tackle high,
their play was superior to that of
their heavy opponents, and in the
first half, after about ten minutes of
nervousness, they outplayed George
town at every point of the game. The
offensive play of both teams was far
superior to their defensive.
Georgetown kicked off and the
ball was brought back well up in the
field. After changing hands several
times, always remaining in V. NJ. is
territory, Georgetown succeeded in
rushing the pigskin across the cadet
goal line. Changing goals, V. NJ. !.
soon got the ball on downs. BY
series of splendid runs between the
ends and tackles, and plunges through
the line, the cadets forced their way
steadily on to q touchdown, but failed
of goal
In the second half Georgetown's
weight began to tell, and she soon
scored another touchdown, from
which goal was kicked. In the very
first play there was a tumble, and
the V. NJ. |. full back secured the ball
and broke through the crowd and
ran down the field for touchdown
This play was the most exciting Of
the game. BY steady line plunging
secured two more touch
downs.
For the cadets, Milton, Pace, Paul
and the star full back played the
best game.
The lineup of the V. NJ. |. team
was: Camper, left end; Devol, left
tackle; Pace, left guard Lee, center;
Leftwich, right guard; Sinclair, right
tackle; Milton, right end; Dewey,
captain, quarter back; Paul Funk
louser) left half back; Claggett, right
half back, James, full back.

MINNESOTA NEWS.
Old Minnesota Volcanoes.

:.
Remains of volcanoes, once active,
are scattered over the whole north
eastern part of the state. Old Mount
Chengwatana, 60 miles north Of Mime
apolis, is of volcanic formation, and
Duluth itself is built upon the base OF
a huge volcano, the neck and body hav-
ing been swept away in the mighty
transformations of the glacial age.
Taylors Falls is also on ground Of vol
canic origin, and in the vicinity OF
Saltwater are found huge volcanic
rocks Mount Chengwatana, in its
palmy days, rivaled old Mount Vesu-
vius, and was the most remarkable
volcano in the whole of North America.
Sixty-fve distinct lava flows can be
traced at the base Of the mountain and
half as many more have been covered
up in the course of years.
Millions Of years ago the Minnesota
volcanoes were in, active, work continu-
ally, but in the several succeeding
ages, before the glacial age, the erosive
and disintegrating forces Of nature
were at work and the mountains be-
came covered with earth, vegetation
and stately pines. Then came the age
Of ice. The huge glaciers in their
movement southwark wore off the
Threats and bodies Of these great fur
naces, obliterating almost all traces Of
them, but leaving the bright fresh
rock visible as we have it today.

Cl,mate and crop Bulletin.

In the Red River valley advantage
has been taken of the favorable
weather and a great deal Of work has
been done seeding barley, oats, flax,
potatoes and some corn, and the seed
ing of these crops is well advanced,
but fax will be seeded on new land for
some time yet. The small grains that
are up are growing splendidly and
stooling well In some counties rain
was beginning to be needed before the
rain of the LIST, which will be bene-
fetal. In central and southern por-
tions the small grains are in excellent
condition, and they are stooling salts
factorily. Corn and potato planting
is about finished, though in the heavy
soils of the extreme southeast the
ground has been too wet to plant until
this week; generally these crops are
nicely up, and the earliest are being
cultivated. Corn has good stand,
there having been serious trouble with
cut worms in only small areas. A
great deal of fax is up, and growing
well. Ryeis in head. Timothy seeded
last year is a failure, owing to the
heat and dryness of last summer, but
the old timothy fields are nearly all
in very fine condition.
