THE c. p. PRESBYTERY

The Springfield Presbytery OF the
Cumberland Presbyterian church
convened at Mt. Dale, Oct. /, at IL
a. M. The retiring moderator be-
ing absent, Rev, Duggins of the Lex
ington Presbytery, preached the in
%troductory sermon. After the ser
mon Rev. Joseph Davis was elected
moderator.
A recess was taken until 2 p. M.
During the afternoon Rev. L. Hen
sley of the Free Baptist church pre-.
scented himself for membership.
After answering the questions pro-
pounded to candidates for ordina-
ton in the affirmative, he was cleo
ted to membership by a unanimous
vote. A letter from a newly organ
lied church on Elk Creek, Wright
county, was read and the church
was received under the r of the
presbytery, The new church has
the name of the Elk Creek congre-
CATION. Rev.J.A. Russell organized
the congregation.
The Ladies Peesbyterial society
held memorial services in memory
OF Sister Nancy Foster, who depart
ed this life last November. Sister
Foster organized this society six
yeyrs ago with four members. 1t
now has over 100.
The missionary society held an
open meeting Thursday evening be-
fore a full house, rendered a fine
program and took a free will offer
ing of over $40.
Presbytery adjourned to meet
with the Pleasant Grove congrega-
ton in Greene county, on .Wednes-
day before the first Sunday in April
1914, at II a. IN.
Mt. Dale is a young congregation
organized by the writer only a few
years ago and if it has proper pas.
toral care and no cliques or rings
are formed in it, it will be one OF
the strongest congregations in the
presbytery.
The Cumberland Presbyterian
church has been passing through
the fire for the past seven years,
considerable property has passed
from its control-still she grows in
a remarkable way. Her greatest
danger today is bossism. Preach
ers in presbytery would locate all
the pastors as a bishop-an elder
that would control the business OF
the church as if it belonged to him.
These are our greatest dangers.

They maintain a theater, ball
ground with league team, a canteen
