Is the Oldest Minister in Louisville Con.
ference.

The oldest minister in the
Louisville Conference and prob
ably the most venerable in Ken
tucky, the Rev. j. S. Scobee, of
223 West Walnut street, Louis
vile, attended conference at
Central City last week and de-
clared in all his life he had never
been in better health. although
the Rev. Mr.. Scobee has been
retired from active service for
two years, he occasionally de-
livers sermon, and the force
and vitality be puts in what he
has to say is considered remark
able. He was admitted to the
Louisville Conference in 1916 at
Hopkinsville, and was on trial
for two years before he was ap-
pointed to a charge, which was
at Mt. Eden, after which he was
appointed to the pastorate of
the church at Asbury. At the
time the Rev. Mr.. Scobee was
admitted to t h e conference
Bishop Andrew presided.
Out of all the 200 ministers in
the conference at that time there
are, only two living besides Mr..
Scobee. They are the Rev. DIR.
j. w. Cunningham, now of st.
Louis, and the Rev. ID. L. Mar
tin, who resides in Texas.
During the Civil War the Rev.
Mr.. Scobee entered the Southern
army with the rank of Major,
but after several months, during
which time he saw hard service,
he was made chaplain of the
regiment Of which he was
member, at his own request. OF
every conference held since 1854,
he says he has only missed about
eight.
Rev. Scobee says he has not
been sick for years and that it
was sixty years ago this summer
since he was confined to his bed
on account of illness. He has
never in the many years of his
ministry disappointed a con-
gregation by failing to fill his
appointment. This is a remark
able record made by few min
listers.

REGISTRATION
Light Vote Registered Shows
Lack Of Interest In Primary.
QUIET. WET DAY IN HOPKINS.

Tuesday was a day to induce ;
light registration of voters in the
towns of Western Kentucky
Nothing had been said about the
coming registration day in the
newspapers of Hopkins count,
until The BEE published the fact
last Thursday and circulated
some extra papers making thai
announcement. The other papers
then told it and the people were
advised as well as they could be
on short notice.
The official notices of appoint
ment as officers of the election
were not served until Monday.
The registration books and sup.
plies were distributed Monday
also.
The registration books that had
been returned to the county
court clerks Office by noon yes
terday showed the following re
suits:
jacksonville: Elk, 230; Court
House, 1853; Kitchen, 1888; Mill,

Barnsley, 81; st. Charles, 113;

Without making any analysis
of the registered vote on this
first day of registration the re-
suits would seem to indicate
lack of interest in the coming
primary and election. This
being an off year the registration
will be naturally lighter than
when there is county, state or
presidential election.
Under the law the town author
lties of any town in which regis
tration is required to be held
