SABBATH SCHOOLS
4 II
Clinton Presbyterian Sunday School was
Organized May 9, 1864. Annual
Event Celebrated.

Clinton, May 1.-THE PRESBYTERIAN
Sabbath school celebrated it's forty
fourth anniversary last Sunday morning
at IL O'Clock. 1t was organized May 8,
1864, and since that time has celebrated
the annual return of its birthday. The
exercises Sunday morning were very
enjoyable. A feature that pleased
everybody was a song from Mrs. A. nj.
Copeland's infant class which numbers
about fifty tots from three to eight
years old. A charming little motion
song was given by seven little girls of
the Thornwell Orphanage selected and
trained by Miss Matte Hipp from her
class. Three Young gentlemen made
excellent addresses: Mr.. John H. Hen
rY, Mr.. r. w. Latham and Mr.. Sidney
Brooks. Mr.. Larry B. billiard, the
secretary, read the report for the year.
The number enrolled was over four
hundred and the average attendance
over three hundred. The contributions
were in round numbers two hundred
and fifty dollars. Three children re-
ceived Bibles for the perfect recitation
of the shorter Catechism and nine 9TH
ers received Testaments for the perfect
recitation of the Introductory or child's
catechism. All these were pupils of
Thornwell O~rphanage. DR.. Jacobs
made a brief address containing remi-
%niscences of the past and advice for
the future. The choir furnished spe-
cial music.
The Methodist church will entertain
the Greenville District Conference this
week. The exercises will be opened
Wednesday night, when the Rev. Mr..
Cook, of Greer, will preach the open
ing sermon.
The college baseball team played the
last game of the season Saturday after
noon with Newberry and got their sec
ond w~hitewashing this season. The
game was remarkably poor. Both
teams were nervous and the home boys
got nineteen errors to their credit while
the visitors made fourteen. The home
team defeated Furman Friday after
noon by a score of three to nothing.

Editor Messenger: VIII you please
allow space in your paper to publish the
death Of one of the Oldest colored men
in the State of South Carolina, who

Fork side, was more than one hundred
years old. When the civil war broke

the good luck to live so long hat he

neral services being conducted by the

Will Rusticate on Farm,

Miss Sarah Quigley, who has
recently become a resident of Ten
strike, was in Bemidji today doing
some shopping.
Miss Quigley, who was formerly
engaged in literary work on one of
the big New York dailies, is sister
of E. G.. Quigley, professor of
psychology at the Moorhead normal
school.
AS the professor has purchased
considerable land about two miles
east of Tenstrike, Miss Quigley has
decided to live on the land and
make her home there in the future.
She expects a party of friends in the
near future who will visit her during
the summer.
Professor Quigley will clear the
land and will farm the same on an
up-to-date plan.

The local executive committee are
| already assured that there will be
plenty of harmony" at the state
! meeting members of several of the
Elk lodges having written that they
will bring along a band with their
delegation.
The famous St. Cloud band,
thirty strong, will be at the head of
the St. Cloud lodge, one of the
strongest lodges in the state. Little
Falls will come on special train,
with band that is of a high class.
Hibbing will bring a band, and there
will undoubtedly be others, in addi-
ton to the famous Little German
Band" of Crookston, which has won
high praise at all Elks gatherings in
the northwest for the past five years.
And the EIks' quartette of Crooks
ton will also be present and spring a
lot of new stuff"
It is the intention of the local
committee to pay particular atten-
ton to the comfort and pleasure of
the wives and families of the visiting
Elks, and with that end in view
Mrs. J. c. Parker has been placed
in charge of that part of the arrange
ments, and given full power to
select members of the committee
over which she will preside.
A feature of the meeting which
will be greatly enjoyed by the visi-
tors will be the presence of large
! band of Red Lake Indians. John
G. Morrison, Jr., and O. Gravelle,
who reside at the Red Lake agency,
have this matter in hand. These
Indians will give their native dances,
and will be camped in their tepees
on the lake shore during the three
days of the meeting.
AS the dates { June $4,000 are
at a time when Bemidji is particu-
larly attractive to those desiring to
enjoy an outing, it is confidently
expected that there will be a large
crowd of Elks as we'll as many who
are not members of the order who
will come to this city for the three
days.

BIBLE CONFERENCE IS TO
BE HELD JULY 28-AUGUST ?
The Conference This Year Promises Eclipse All Former
Seasons. -.Many Noted Speakers Have Been Engaged
to Speak at the Conference.

The fourth season of the Bemid il
Bible Conference will be held in this
city July % to August 2, inclusive,
and present indications point to the
largest attendance and the most
interesting meeting of the kind ever
held in northern Minnesota.
The program committee, of which
the Rev. Grant Stroh of Warren
is the chairman, is doing most
valiant work in securing speakers,
and already there have been booked
some of the best known lecturers
and orators in the country.
In addition to many we'll known
speakers of the west the program
committee has secured the services
of Rev. George Soltau of London,
Eng, who has an international repu-
tation as speaker and lecturer.
DR.. Soltau comes recommended in
the highest terms and the committee
is to be congratulated upon securing
him.
DR.. C. N. Luccock of Oak Park,
ILL.,, is another speaker or prominence
who has been secured for the Bible
conference. He has attended the
past two sessions of the conference,
and he will be remembered espec-
tally for the very able address which
he made here last year. on Pals

State High School Examinations.

County Superintendent Stewart
announced this morning that all
those attending rural schools who
desire to take the State High School
Board examinations, should send in
their requests to him before the goth
inst. They should specify in what
subjects they wish to take the ex-
aminations in order that he may
order the proper number of slips
from the state board.
The examinations this year will
commence on the 18th of May, and
will continue for one week.

At the urgent request of Elks
living in the twin cities and other
parts of the state, the fourth annual
meeting of the Minnesota State
Association of Elks will be held in
Bemidji Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday, June 18th, 10Th and 10th,
instead of July 9th, 9TH and 9Th, as
had been previously agreed upon
and announced to the public.
The change was demanded for
the principal reason that the dates
originally selected (July 6-7-S), were
too near to those set for holding
the meeting of the grand lodge at
Dallas, Texes. The grand lodge will
meet at Dallas, Texas, on July 18th,
and it has already been arranged
among the delegates from Mime
sofa to make the trip to Dallas
principally by the water route
down the Mississippi river from ST..
Paul, by boat; and the time set for
leaving St. Paul on the river excur-
sion was July 9TH, the later date
being the middle day of the state
meet here as planned at first. Letters
received by the executive committe
having the state meet in hand urged
the changing of the dates, which
has been done, so that all Elks in
the state may be in Bemidji-June
1920.
Many letters have been received
from lodges throughout the state, in
which assurances are given that
large delegations of the horned
brethren" will attend the state meet.
One of the pleasing incidents of the
correspondence had with outside
Elk organizations is letters from
North Dakota in which it is given
out that members of the Grand
Forks, Fargo, Minot and James
town, North Dakota, lodges will be
present at the meeting. There is
no state association in the Flicker
tail'' state, and the Elks over west
decided to spend an outing in Be-

give an address on that subject dur.
ing the conference.
Rev. Otis C. Dale of Minneapolis
has consented to make an address
during the conference.
The Rev. Grant Stroh of Warren
will give two Bible readings at the
conference. Rev. Stroh has attended
all former meetings of the conference,
and is Bible student and teacher Of
recognized ability.
The program committee is especi.
ally pleased in having secured DR..
Patrick of Manitoba College to
speak at the conference. In DR..
Patrick the committee will have a
very strong attraction. The doctor
is man of power and an eloquent
speaker.
The committee is IN touch With a
number of other prominent men who
will undoubtedly be induced to attend
the conference.
On the whole the personnel of the
conference is very strong, and the
Bemidji conference of this year will
be of such character as to compare
very favorably with the large con
ferences held in the east.
The following are the principal
officers of the Bemidji Bible confer.
