Although Ava. Willing Aston has

Public discussion of this phase of
the complicated Aston family situation
is considered out of the question dur

in all circles of society.

ceeded the late Maj. Archibald w.
Butt at the presidents chief military
aid, was chosen from the medical
branch of the army service. He ia
AZ years old and unmarried. like all
his predecessors. Serving as the pres

occupations known, and for that rea-
son a bachelor is invariably given the
post.
Until recently Major Rhoads served
on the medical staff of the Walter
Reed General hospital. near Bright
wood, suburb of Washington city.
His duties there naturally kept him
from mingling much in the social life
of the capital and restricted the range
of his acquaintances. But that restric-
ton has now been removed, and
Major Rhoads is making friends rap
idly. He has always been well liked
in army circles. He is somewhat old

Chippewa Presbytery Will Advance
Missionary Work on Western
Wisconsin Reservations.

Eau Claire.-At a special meet
ing of the Chippewa presbytery it
was declared that religious work
among the Indians in the western
part of Wisconsin has been sadly
neglected and that a good majority
of the 5000 Indians in Couderay,
odanana and on the Flambeau re-
serve are without religious training.
The Presbyterian churches will take
the initiative in the missionary work
and 1t was recommended to the board

engaged as assistant to the Rev. c.
H. Merriam, in charge at Couderay.
1t was also recommended that a
grant of $4,000 be made for chapel
