A battle is on between Rev. f. b.
Fowler, pastor Of the United Brethren
church of Elmira, and Charles B.
Hurd, a teacher in the public schools.
Both men are popular and seemed To-

time ago, when the minister delivered

Charles Hurd withdrew from the
church, and now both pastor and

ways lived there and are perhaps the
most popular young people of the
community.
