Big Family Has Another Reunion.-The
tenth annual reunion of the Belt-Parrish fam
lilies was held on Thursday on the Emory Grove
camp grounds. The weather was unfavorable
both in the morning and afternoon, which les
sened the attendance, but there were between
75 and 100 members of the two families present.
A devotional and song service was conducted by
Rev. ]. Tolley Marsh and Rev A: F: Campbell,
prior to the opening exercises, which were held
in the tabernacle, beginning at IL o'clock with
prayer by Rev. John Edwards. Rev. ]. Tolley
Marsh, a member of the family, delivered the
welcoming address and introduced the presi-
dent, Mr. Eli s. Belt, who also made an inter-
esting address.
Miss Tina G. Belt, who has been secretary of
the family association since its organization,
delivered her annual report. A brief memorial
service was then held, conducted by Revs.
Campbell Marsh and Edwards, after which the
following officers were elected :: Samuel g.
Leight, president; William h. Belt, OF Mont.
gomery county, first vice-president; Alfred
Belt, second vice president; Jackson Belt, Of
Hampstead, third vice PRESIDENT John x.
Howe fourth vice president; Arthur Belt, fifth
vice president; Miss Tina G Belt, secretary;
John H. Belt treasurer, and Miss E. V. Belt,

as far as the year 1913. In the year 1910 Bos.

the late Sir Robert Belt, who was also founder

Parkville, Hartford Road.--The second
quarterly meeting of Great Falls Circuit was
held at Convention, on Monday, August oath.
District Superintendent Mcdowell preached to
a fine congregation and encouraging reports
were received from the several appointments
on the circuit.
At the conclusion of the morning service,
and before receiving the financial reports, every
body present was invited to partake of what
some called luncheon, but that name was inap-
propriate for the reason that most bountifuI
dinner had been provided by the ladies and
there was plenty left to feed many more.
The ladies' Of the aapnQintm deserve
ing to erect a neat and comfortable church at
that place. The building is comparatively new
and this was the first quarterly meeting to be
held there. think can safely say, however,
that it will not be the last, if genuine OPEN
handed hospitality counts for anything.

Teacher,

The new ballot seems to be a sue
cess. Though not tried before, fewer
ballots were spotted. than under the
old l-w. 1t is true many persons did
not fully understand it, yet there were
SO many different ways Of voting that
very few went entirely wrong. The
voters have found out that they can
successfully vote for candidates on
different tickets without the fear OF
spelling their ballots. This will be the
means of breaking up many a coun ty
