synod sends Greetings.

In Keeping with the adoption of the
report Of the committee on foreign
correspondence this evening, DR.. W. ".
Moore. of Richmond. was commissions
TO extend the fraternal greetings o.
the assembly TO the General synod of
reformed Churches in America, and
Rev. l. s. McElroy, of Macon, Ga, was
commissioned to extend these greetings
to the Associate Reform Presbyterian
Synod of the South.
After the minutes OF the morning
session had been read and approved
Rev. w. r. Dobyns made a motion that
the assembly be dissolved. The moder-
ator made TO the assembly few re-
marks. in which he expressed his an
probation OF the kindness and courtesy
shown him by members of the body. He
said that he was conscious that he had
made some mistakes in his presidency
over the assembly. but that ne had tried
to do his duty.
The moderator then put the motion
to the house regarding the dissolving
OF this assembly. and the vote being
In favor. the assembly was d'ssol~ ed.
No resolution passed by the assembly
was more commendatory than that
regarding the laymen's missionary
movement. and never before has the
assembly expressed so forcibly its
appreciation of this organization.
Laymen's missionary Movement.
The resolution adopted is as follows
I'm view of the superb work of our
laymens miss onary movement in be-
half of foreign missions we recon-
mend that the General Assembly re-
quest the laymen to take up similar
service in behalf OF the other depart-
ments of our work and by confer
enccs, conventions. institutes and such
other means as they may deem best
to arouse the men of our church to
an intelligent and enthusiastic support
all along the line, and to do all in
their power 10 promote and cause to
be worked the assembly's plan"
1t is probabla that the action of
this assembly which will be regarded
as the most radical taken will be that
regarding the restriction of the power
of the permanent committee of syste-
matte beneficencc. and this action no
doubt will cause surprise to many
in the church, and IT. is probable that
1t Will form the basis of me-
MORALS and overtures that will be
presented to the assembly of next year
that still other action be taken in this
connection.

POSTAL BUSINESS GROWS
Receipts of Postofice Larger
Than Ever.

Figures compiled by Post
master G. G. Coad at the close
Of the calendar year show that
the commercial activity Of the
city and vicinity as measured
by the amount Of money han
died by the Dallas postoffice IS
in a healthy condition. During
the past II months the receipts
have reached a total Of $8l97,
and while the increase over the
previous year is not abnormally
large the percentage IS much
greater than many other tows OF
similar size.
On account Of the large num-
ber Of election documents sent
out BY political candidates dur
ing a campaign, the present
year is expected to be an un-
usually lively one in postoffice
affairs.
