somehow suggested the bill of a hawk. He
wore a suit which matched the color of the
bare woods and the white oak leaves which
still hung shivering on the trees. Like the
wild things which he had spent so many
years in hunting he blended with his sur
roundings perfectly.
AS we walked along in silence he was as
interesting to me as any other inhabitant
of the forest. Nothing pertaining to the
animal life about us did he seem to miss.
His eyes were everywhere, on the sky, in
the trees and on the ground, and he not

acute and not only sorted out the different
sounds which came to us but told the dis
lance and direction of each.
We had been walking perhaps ten min
utes when he said Hist" and, following
the direction of his eyes, saw on a hillside
above us a deer quietly browsing at
patch of brown grass which the sun had
cleared of snow. Ii was quite unconscious
of our presence as stood there, but as
we started forward again it caught the
sound, and. raising it's pretty head, started
straight at us. For just a poment we saw
the full face, with the long ears standing
out either side like the wings of
butterfly. The next instant it wheeled, and
sprang away up the hill, its broad white
tail in the air. Barring its path was
clump of bushes; at least five feet high
they looked from where 1 stood, but, turn
ing neither to the right nor the left, the

done. On reaching a safe distance, the
deer stopped, turned round and looked at
again for a moment, and then, with

woods.

So powerful are these birds that they some

Several times during our tramp we saw
small herds of deer file past through the
trees, and once, far away upon a bare hill
top, we caught sight of COW moose. Now

we always stopped for a minute to hear
interruption of his meal and to
watch the clumsy fellow climb a lit

not see, but, judging from their tracks
they must have been plentiful, a fact which
doubtless accounted for our seeing but one

there he studied theology under his father.

then president. The progress he made
under the guidance of his father was re-
markable. and without exhibiting any great
precocity, his early work predicated a bril-
liant future He cultivated a very dramatic
STYLE which made his discourse effective.
This. coupled with his keen sense of humor
and his apt illustrations. caused his popu-
larity as a public speaker to become pro-
digious.
His first charge after finishing the course
at Lane was at Lawrenceburg, Ind This
church was organized in 1927 and was just
ten years old when Beecher took the
charge. The church itself stood on the site
of the present Presbyterian Church, which
was built in 1852. The remarkable energy
of the young minister became apparent
soon after he came to Lawrenceburg.
There are those living yet who remember
him as a hoy preacher" He kept the
church I'm repair and acted as its janitor.
He borrowed lamps wherever he could in
order to hold night meetings. He caught
drift wood in the river for fuel. During
the two years he was in Lawrenceburg he
made many friends and increased his con-
gregaton greatly.

was nearing completion, contributions were
asked TO assist in paying for it. One of
