REV, J, {, FRANKLIN GIVES
UP PRESBYTERIAN PULPIT
NOTIFIED HIS CONGREGATION
LAST SUNDAY MORNING
Will Move Back to Wilmington Some
time Between Now and the First
of April-MeetIng, March I3

Rev. ]. E. Franklin, pastor of
Smyrna Presbyterian Church, notified
his congregation Sunday morning of
his intention of giving up his past
crate in Smyrna. He rendered his
resignation to take effect as soon as
possible. The resignation will be
acted upon at congregational meet
ing to be held March 18th. The
session of the New Castle Presbytery
also meets early in April and it is
the desire of Rev. Franklin to get
the matter before the spring meet
ing so everything can be disposed
of now and not wait until next fall.
Rev. Franklin, it is understood, will
move back to his old home in Will
mington, which he gets possession
March 25th. To his congregation
Sunday, he stated he felt he had
served his usefulness here and mas
much as better opportunities were
open to him in Wilmington he felt
it was time for him to make the
move. He spoke of the cordial re-
laions that existed between him and
the church and felt there was work
here for his successor to do. The
members of his congregation were
sorry to near of his resignation.
They are not the only ones who re-
gret seeing him leave Smyrna. Rev.
Franklin in the year OF more he has
resided in Smyrna has been active
in the Smryna Grange and has given
much of his spare time in assisting in
their weekly programs and in lectur-
ing on various topics. The Grang-
ers, therefore, will miss him ex-
ceedingly He has also been identi-
fed with other good movements hav-
ing to do with the welfare of the
town. His son, Floyd Franklin, is
at present a student at Princeton
University and Rev. and Mrs.
Franklin are looking forward to the
time when he will complete his edu-
cation. This is another reason why
they want to become settled in
Wilmington.

SMYRNA MAY FIGURE IN
HONORS FROM CONFERENCE
DR.. WATT. DR.. STEPHENSON AND
W. o. HOFFECKER MENTIONED
AS Delegates to the General Confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
Church Which Meets in May


Joseph Smithers, delegate, and
Lewis M. Price, alternate, have
been elected to represent Asbury
M. E. Church at the coming session
of Wilmington Methodist Episcopal
Conference, which will be held in
Wilmington, beginning Wednesday.
March the 18th. At this session
four ministerial delegates and four
lay delegates are to be elected to
the General Conference, which
meets in May at Minneapolis. For
this honor Smyrna citizens will
figure in the contest with other Dis
tricts of the Conference. Rev. DR..
Robert Watt and Rev. R. K.
Stephenson are among those prom
inently mentioned for the minister
ial honor and Walter o. Hoffecker
for one of the lay delegates. There
is comparative quiet as to prospec-
tive appointments compared with
past sessions. The lack of specu.
lative agitation this year as to
ministerial assignments is said to
be due to the fact that Bishor
Luther 2. Wilson is to preside over
the conference. He has the repu.
tation of making appointments or
his own judgment, based mainly or
his own Investigations and inquiries
rather than depending entirely upor
recommendations of the district
superintendents. Bishop Wilson
has been on a lecture tour through
the Conference and has visited Will.
mington two or three times recent.
ly. While the names of many min.
listers are mentioned for delegate:
to the General Conference, the
general opinion seems to be thai
the four district superintendent
will be given that honor they be.

6renford Man Says Loss of Money is

Brenford Man Says Loss of Money is
not as Bad as Mystery Concerning it
With S1OO in cash in a roll of hills
In his pocket book, Walter Sapp.
of Brenford, went to Dover last
Saturday to attend Massey's sale.
He did some trading at Wallace's
store, using some coin in the wallet
containing his roll of S1OO. At
Massey's sale he bought horse.
When he went to pay for it, he
found his wallet all right except
that it was minus the roll of slOO.
The loss of the money and the horse
is not half so bad as the mystery
surrounding his loss, according to
Mr.. Sapp. If his pocket was picked
why did the artist doing the work
stop to close the wallet and put it
back in his pocket? That the money
was there at Wallce's is vouched
for by Mr.. Sapp's companion of the
morning.

Messrs. A. D. Simon and John S.

Horse Circuit to be held in Pittsburgh
on Friday, Jan, 10. The local repre-.

power to have the very best racing
dates that can be secured for the Fair
mont Fair Association Just what
these dates will be can not be told
until worked out at the meeting OF the
stewards.
Clarksburg wants earlier dates than
it has been having. The Harrison
county aggregation want the last
week In August rather than the last
week In September as has been the
rule in past years. 1t would then
probably be better then for the local
people to have the week following
Clarksburg. There are several mat.
tiers that enter into the selection Of
dates for the harness meetings and
these win have to be worked out at
the meeting Of the stewards.
Littleshas been thought Of racing
here for some time but the meeting
will stir the local horsemen. Another
event that will set the race horse

Like breath. from the yine.clad

the wit dispensed by the star, and.
the notes OF his tuneful love Songs
flow while laughter reigns supreme.
Throughout the entire story Of "a
German Prince" run many bright
threads OF mirth and comedy, while
the pictures OF lifesst poftrays are said
to be faithful in, every detail. The
role portrayed by Mr.. Wilson is that
of an Impoverished Prince Of the Ger
man Empire who, in the disguise OF a
courier, Is engaged BY a party Of
American tourists to act as their'guide
throughout Germany and the Austrian
Tyrol. The love element centers
around the prince and a charming
young American heiress who is a
member Of the party. The music and
comedy elements are mostly supplied
by the star In the character Of the,
courier who sings his way into the
hearts OF all who hear him. Manager
Sidney r. Ellis is credited with hay-
ing provided capable supporting
company, while the brilliant electrt;
