CHURCH HUNDRED YEARS OLD
Anniversary Washington's First Pses-
byterian House Of Worship IL
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES 1927.

The First Presbyterian church of
Washington celebrated it's one hun
dredth anniversary a few weeks ago.
In this structure since its erection in
1897 presidents. cabinet members.
senators and representatives In con-
press. also prominent persons from
all walks Of life. have worshiped. At
the century celebration when the
services were conducted by Rev. Dom
aid C. Mcleod, pastor of the church.
historical sermon was preached. and
one of the features of the evening
was the display of articles used In
the original little White Church under
the Hill. the name given the church
out OF which the present First Presby-
terrain church sprang. 1t was organic.
ed In 1875. and 1t still has its high ma.
hogany pulpit and silver communion
bowl and quite a number of other his
toric articles.
Andrew Jackson was the first presi-
dent to attend services there, although
he never tied himself to any church.
but his leaning was towards the Pres
byterian faith. James K Polk and
Franklin Pierce also attended church
there. 1t is said that Pierce used to
walk from the executive mansion to
this church on Wednesday evening to
attend prayer meeting services. Abra-
ham Lincoln worshiped there, and
General Grant Grants pew was No.
81. and he paid $95 a year for it. For
nearly 30 years DR.. Byron Sunder-
land was pastor there DR.. Sunder-
land was one of the dearest little old
Christians that ever lived. He was
extremely loyal to the flag, and when
the war broke out he preached a SER
mon following the firing on Fort
Sumter which so angered some OF
the communicates of his church that
they got up and walked out.
1t was In this church In 1895 that
the first Flag day exercises in the
District Of Columbia were held.
A movement to place bronze tab
let In the church corridor giving its
history was started recently. 1t 10
hoped to have this completed before
the Inauguration. An endowment fund
Is also being raised that will secure
the future financial status of the
church from whose original two dozen
members the Washington membership
Of the Presbyterian church has grown
10 10000.

NO PRIVACY FOR DIPLOMATS
Appropriation for State Department
Effectiveness 10 Cut Out by
the House Committee.

"Gastronomic diplomacy" is not to
displace dollar diplomacy" At least
It Is the intention of the house COM
mite on appropriations that 1t shall
not. Proof Of this is found In the
omission from the sundry civil bill OF
an appropriation which has been ask
ed for the preparation of plans for a
kitchen and fashionable dining room
IN the new building for the DEPART
ment of state. Because the plans an
drawn provided for an elaborate BAN
quet room. the appropriations COM
mittee omitted the entire item of
$4,000, which was requested for the
preparation of the plans. The COM
nfttee took the position that until =
new once design, sans culinary euuip-
ment. IL submitted. nothing should be
paid FOR the plans. As q result, Il
seems certain that II friendly relations
are to be maintained by gratifying the
inner man. that sort Of diplomacy will
have to be practiced In the BANQUET
halls OF hotels az in years gone by.
During the hearings on the sundry
CIVIL bin 1t developed that some of
tne governments nephews had a
scheme In mind which would have
necessftated keeping a well-stocked
Isrder. 1t was originally planned to
nave suites of rooms in the new de-
partment of state building. so that
they could be used by visiting digni-
tarfes. Under such conditions II
would have been unnecessary for Adj
mirai Togo and the Duke Of Con-
nausht to associate with American
people at the hotels Of Washington.
Uncle SAM" inBeeper, would have
provided them with free board and
lodging while here, but alas-"econ-
omy" spoiled the golden dream.
