Will Decide As To Oldest Church.

Methodist Protestants, Methodist Epis-
copals and Southern Methodists, the three
oldest opponents of Methodism as found
ed by John Wesley, through the efforts
of committee of which Rev. DR.. John
F. Goucher is at the head, are about to
learn for once and all time the name of
the oldest Methodist church in America.
For years an effort has been made to
settle this question, but on account OF
the persistent claims of two churches,
the matter has never been settled.
The two churches claiming the honor
are the Sans Creek Church, in Carroll
county, Md, and the John Street church
in New York. They are both Methodist
Episcopal institutions and the point of
issue is one between Maryland and New
York Methodists. Members of the John
Street church, believing their church to
be the oldest'and possessing data to back
their belief, celebrated, two years ago,
the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary
of the institution of Methodism there.
Maryland Methodists are convinced that
the Sans Creek church is the Oldest, and,
if they are able to prove their assertion,
it is proposed making a big pilgrimage
there during October for the purpose of
celebrating the event. Hundreds of
Methodist ministers and laymen will join
the pilgrimage.

AMERICAN ROAD CONGRESS.

women are more vitality con-
cerned in the good roads movement
than are men" declares Mrs. Robert
Baker, Chairman of the Women's
Department of the American High
way Association at Washington.
"The isolation and loneliness of farm
life, cut off for months each year
from communication with the outside
world, because of impossible roads,
falls most heavily upon the women of
the household. The young escape it
by moving to the cities but the wives
and mothers must endure it. Schools
and churches can only develop their
field of usefulness when they are
made accessible to the contiguous
population. Next to the home, the
women should cherish and upbuild
most OF all, the church and the
school, and as a means to accomplish
this, good roads are almost para
mount"
A conference of women from all
the states has been called to meet in
Atlanta, Georgia, on November 10
to consider ways and means of max
ing the organized efforts of women
most effective for the betterment of
the public roads. Many distinguished
women will be present.
The program for the Atlanta Con-
ference comprises, in addition to
addresses, a special demonstration of
the government exhibit for the ladies
in attendance at the Conference,
upon which occasion the Director of
the U. s. Office of Public Roads will
be host.

For Peace.

Washington, Sept. 8th-President Will
son today signed proclamation calling
on the people of the United States to
pray for peace in Europe.
The proclamation set aside Sunday,
October 4th, as Il day of prayer, its full

"By the President of the United States
of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
"Whereas great nations of the world
have taken up arms against one another
and war now draws millions of men into
battle whom the counsel of statesmen
have not been able to save from the ter
rible sacrifice; and
"Whereas in this. as in all things, 1T is
our privilege and duty to seek counsel
and succor of Almighty God, humbing
ourselves before Him, confessing our
weakness and our lack of any wisdom
equal to these things; and
"Whereas it is the especial wish and
longing of the people of the United States
in prayer and counsel and all friendliness,
to serve the cause of peace; therefore,
al, Woodrow Wilson, President of the
United States of America, do designate
Sunday, the fourth day of October next,
day of prayer and duplication, and dc
request all God-fearing persons to repair
on that day to their places of worship,
there to unite their petitions to Almighty
God, that, overruling the counsel of men,
setting straight the things they cannot
govern or alter, taking pity on the ma
tions now in the throes of conflict, in
His mercy and goodness showing way
where men can see none, He vouchsafe
His children healing peace again and re-
store once more that concord among men
and nations without which there can be
neither happiness nor true friendship nor
any wholesome fruit of toll or thought in
the world; praying also to this end that
He forgive US our sins, our ignorance OF
His holy will, our wlfulness and many
errors, and lead US in the paths of ODE
dience to places of vision and to thoughts
and counses that purge and make wise.
"In witness whereof | have hereuntc
set my hand and caused the seal of the
| United States to be affixed
"Done at the city of Washington this
eighth day of September in the year OF
our Lord one thousand nine hundred anc
