DOWN GREEN RIVER
An Old Rverman Describes the Granduer of the Scenery
Along This Stream--Trp Made in Grand juno
ton Mans Boat "The Cliff Dweller."

Tor to the famous Manitou springs of
Colorado. During the high water
period these springs are flooded by
the stream, but a dixie or wall could
be built around them so that they
might be accessible at all times Of
the year. These springs are 25 miles
below Elgin landing
At this point the valley again opens
out. and on the left shore there are
two ranches that have been located
by settlers. These are last settle
ments on the river and the entrance
to the
Grand Canon of the Green River
looms up and comes into plain view
one mile farther on.
We are now leaving civilization be
hind and entering into the domain of
the cliff dwener and prehistoric man.
Here the river tries to see how many
crooks. curves and knots 1t can tie
itself into and still join the Grand
river to help form the mighty Colo
Tado river on It's wild rush TO the
ocean
The walls Of the canon keep rising
higher and the river burrows deeper
into the bowels of the earth. until the
natural scenery becomes SO grand
and so rugged it beggars the English
language to describe 1t.
Down in between the high rock
walls are long narrow stretches OF
bottom lands bordering the river
These bottoms are generally covered
in part with dense growth of shrub
berry and trees of various kinds OF
grasses, feeding grounds for the
numerous deer. and nesting places
for geese and other wild fowl

To Divide PresnYtery.

The question of dividing Lexington
Presbytery, which has grown beyond
the limits of any other presbytery in
the Southern Presbyterian Church,
has practically been settled. The com
mittee. which was appointed at the
spring session, has agreed upon di-
vision, provided the churches Of Rock
bridge and Bath countries cOnse ct, and
it is believed that they are in sym pathy
with the movement.
The proposed division would estab.
lish new presbytery of the churches
in Augusta, Rockingham and Highland
counties, and all the churches within
the present limit in West Virginia
The old presbybery would then include
Bath and that part of Rock bridge now
in Lexington Presbytery, the county
of Allegheny and that part of Rock
bridge now in Montgomery PEesbytery.
The matter will be finally decided at
the fall meeting of the presbytery.
This is the most important question
that has come up among the Presbyte
rians for some time and great interest
centers in the final outcome.
The committee having this matter
| under consideration was-Rev. }. N.
