CHURCHES PLAN TO keep
LYON TRAIL HITTERS''

Because Of the small attendance at
the meeting Of the Methodist Episco-
pal Preachers Association in Grace
Church this morning, the order OF
the day was passed until next Mon
day. The small attendance was due
in part to some Of the clergymen be-
ing III.
Reports were made by different
clergymen. These were not as full
as usual for the reason that all the
Methodist churches of the city are
closed during the tabernacle meet
( ings.
A general discussion was held as
to the probable result OF the taber-
nacle meetings. The Rev. Or. Her
bert F. Randolph delivered a short
address on how to conserve the trail
hitters" at the tabernacle meetings.
AS soon as trail hitters" are called
for at the tabernacle cards will be
given and on these they will state
which churches they desire TO join.
These cards will then be given 20 the
clergymen Of the different churches.
Dr. Randolph said that IL would be
up TO the clergymen to see that the
trail hitters" were gathered into the
churches. This Dr. Randolph said
would require hard work. Then,
it would be up to the individual
church members to see that the trail
hitters" are kept in line.

ORGANIZE COMMITTEE TO
WORK FOR Rodney Statue

with General james II. Wilson pre-
siding. the executive committee which
has charge of raising funds for the
equestrian statue Of Caesar Rodney
to Be erected here met in the rooms
of the Delaware Historical Society on
Saturday afternoon. Walter G. Tat
nall was elected secretary to succeed
Christopher l.. Ward. who was forced
to resign owing to the pressure Of
business. Ezekiel Cooper. cashier of
the Farmers Bank of Wilmington con-
sented to become the treasurer of the
committee.
General Wilson lamented the fact
that Caesar Rodney has not been hon
ored by the people in any great de-
gree. He stated that with the eXcep-
tion OF the statue that was erected
in Dover when the statesman's remains
we're moved to that town from By.
field, no public recognition Of Rod.
news act has ever been expressed.
This was probably because Rodney
