EPISCOPAL CONVENTION
Trennial Gathering To Be Held In
ST. Louis,

The A4th triennial general conyen-
ticn OF the Protestant Episcopal
Church will be held this year in ST.
Louis, opening Wednesday, October
II. This is the first time in its history
that this gathering has been held west
of the Mississippi. An outstanding
feature of this convention will be the
celebration of the 50th anniversary
OF the election to the episcopate OF
Bishop futile, of Missouri, the Oldest
bishop OF the American church.
Each OF the 6S dioceses has already
elected four clerical and four lay depu-
ties; the 90 missionary districts have
chosen their one lay and one clerical
deputy; and the 10 foreign jurisiict-
ions will each have a representative.
In addition to these 600 clerical and
lay deputies, l22 bishops will be pres
en-.
The convention sits as two houses,
the house of bishops and the house of
deputies each having a veto upon the
other Its primary object is to make
laws for the Protestant Episcopal
church. Legislation takes the form OF
| canons which are operative at once
| and amendments Of the constitution
which require action by two success
sive conventions. The house of bis
| hops fills vacancies in the missionary
episcopate with the concurrence OF the
lower house
In the house OF deputies there are IA
standing committees appointed by the
president There are also 10 commit
tees or commissions of the house oil
bishops. In addition the Joint com
missions and committees of the two
houses number sc.
Among the important subjects now
under consideration by these bodies
are the relation of the Episcopa
Church to other Christian commun
ions; revision and enrichment of the
prayer book: Christian education; tn,
divorce problem missionary organiza
ton; the election of a bishop for ne
groes In the United States; and al
adequate pension system for thu
clergy.
Both houses of the convention vii
meet In the Moolah temple, the ses
sions OF the house of deputies hein'
open to the public For the past few
years there has been a growing agiti
ton against the exclusion of the pres
and public from the sessions of tn
house of bishops. A proposal L
throw open the proceedings was dc
foated by very narrow majority a
the last general convention in NeN
York, but there is every reason to b,
lieve that II will be successful thi
yea.

OVER COUNTRY
Soliciting Loans under the Pro-
visions Of the New Farm
Loan Law. II
an Nv. D. zinn.l

Tho following letter may be Of IN.
terest to some farmers OF Harrison
county:
Information has been received BY
the federal farm loan board that in
various parts OF the country certain
parties are soliciting subscriptions Ia
stock company organizations under
different names, claimed to be operats
ed under the federal farm loan act.
and asking advance payment OF such
subscriptions, especially from farms
ers. The members OF the federal
farm loan board are now engaged III
the work Of organization, holding
hearings in various cities for the pur-
pose OF securing information with q
view to determining the boundaries OF
twelve federal land bank districts,
and the location OF one land bank
in each district. Until these land
banks are established no loans can
be made. The representation by any
person that any organization is now
offering to make loans by authority
of tho farm loan board under the
federal farm loan act Is false, and
any attempt to collect money under
such representation is fraudulent and
is punishable by iine and imprison-
mont under Section 81 OF the act. u
is desirable that farmers should dis
cuss among themselves the benefits
to be derived from the federal farm
loan act and to take preliminary stepH
for the organization OF national farm
loan associations as soon as the feds
eral land banks have been establish-
ed, but no money should now be paid
in connection Herewith to any per-
son for stock or expenses, no matter
what the representation may be.
The foregoing statement Is made
by w. w. Flanagan, secretary Of the
federal farm loan board.

There was marked change in
tho character Of operations, however,

about the railway division In which
extreme fains OF one to almost three
points were fairly numerous. Except
for United States Steel which contln-
ued It's upward career to the new

Drlggs-Senbury gained an additional
seven points. There were moderate
reversals in mercantile marines,
American Smelling, the Mexlcans,
Studebaker and Baldwin Locomotive,
but Maxwell rose three and one-half
points.
Reading was the only important
railway issue to hang back, but that
stock had smart gain earlier In the
week, when 1t made It's new record.

c. A. Schultz was Mt Charleston
the last week where he represented
Salem business interests and large
number OF subscribers to the local
telephone service before the state
public service commission, in a pro-
test against tho proposed rates and
service of the Chesapeake and Poto-
mac Telephone Company. the new
service corporation taking over and
consolidating the chief telephone sys-
tens in northern West Virginia. He
reports that many objections and pro-
tests fled with the commission, and
that this was only preliminary hear
ing toward the perfecting Of an eff
clent telephone service in this section.
The limited local or free area to tele-
phone subscribers is the greatest OBJ
lection to the new service by Salem
people and the public service com
mission has been asked by Salem peo-
plee and business interests to ex-
tend the Salem local or free area seq
vice SO as to include Clarksburg and
its suburbs, 1t being the county-seat,
and being naturally bound to Salem
in a business and social way. 1t ia
expected that Clarksburg business
interests will join in trying to obtain
free telephone service to subscribers
between the two cities.
