Presbyterian general assembly, having
organized by the election of the Rev.
DIR. John F. Carson, of the Central
church of Brooklyn, as moderator, the
eight hundred commissioners took up
reports from the special committees.
Among these reports was that of the
committee on Christian life and work
The report stated that the two-thirds
of the presbyteries and synods have
given attention to the recommendation
of the last assembly that they appoint
committees on interchurch federation
The report called attention to an
investigation made by the secretary OF
the committee. which shows that

Irwin, of Louisville, who nominated
DR.. Frederick Hinnitt, of Danville, KY

WhQt'S the Matter With Father

ed-another point that makes the
poetic neglect of father Incompetent

The nearest approach to prose

has recently appeared is an article
in woman's magazine entitled How
to Manage Fathers" CHANGING at this
title in the table of contents, one
thinks Immediately what remarkable
subject is this for writer to choose.
Why, every girl knows from her very
cradle how to manage father. In
structions in the art would be as sup
erfluous as teaching a fish to swim
or lad to whistle. Turning to the
article, one finds the subtitle "A Con-
fidential Talk to Boys" and all is un-
derstood. One felt there must be some
zine would ever presume to tell a girl
how to manage father
Not only has father been left out OF
the annals of literature, prose and
poetry, but he gets raw deal every
time from his own sex. Man-made
laws say that mother may gaily dis.
pose of everything from the family
jewels down, but just let father try
to sell piece OF his own property.

Judge John A. Caldwell, of the Gin

decreed that fathers legal status II
the household is solely that of bread

to discipline his own children. The
mother is the Official, legal and duly

can not perform this duty unless es

of the Office. Poor old dad ought tt
be grateful that he is allowed to hans

Father is not even permitted to b<

They entered the building at 10 p. m.

They seemed to be unduly excited
and the operator refused to carry
them. While he was upstairs with his
car they went to another of the bat

They jumped into the car and one Of
them palled the starting lever. The

women telegraph operators on that
floor.
From the corridor the frightened
girls could see two spectral cars shoot
