ton of it going to Miss Sue Taylor
Engleman, who was voted the pref
test young lady on the grounds.

Chief Smith. for 40 wears MEM
Der of Harrodburg's police force and
30 years of the time its chief. died
Monday night after a brief illness.
He was a splendid and fearless Off

of which was the loss of an eve.
"Kay," as his legion of friends call
ed him. was a fine old gentlman and
he will be missed probably more than
any other citizen of Harrodsburg

DIR. GREEN'S 4oth ANNIVERSARY

On the evening OF Saturday, April
rs, a reception was given in honor of
DR.. and Ms. f. M. Green by the men,
bers of the First Presbyterian church.
The occasion of this reception was
the fortieth anniversary of the begin
ming of DR.. Green's pastorate in
Danville. 1t was a great pleasure to
both pastor and people to welcome so
many Of DR.. Green's friends from the
other churches of the city and from
the community.
AS further commemoration of an
event so interesting and unusual as
the rounding out of forty years Of
continuous service as pastor Of one
church, union service was held in
the First Church Sunday evening.
The size of the congregation, as well
as the words of the pastors,I gave
evidence that DR.. Green has won a
unidue place in the esteem and affec-
ton of the people of this communi-
ty. Just forty years before to the day
DR.. Green had preached his first SER
mon as pastor Of the First Church.
Each pastor brought greeting and
congratulations from his people, and
his own personal tribute as well. DR..
Mcdowell. as next in length of SER
vice to DR.. Green, made the princi-
nal address, speaking for the COM
munity as well as for his own church.
1t was a rare speech, full of noble
utterances, and the intimate person
al touches so fitting on such an oc-
casion. The briefer remarks of the
other pastors were in the same fine
spirit, and so graciously put as to be
very grateful to both pastor and peo-
pie of the First Church.
The Rev. J. A. Trostle, as repre-
sentative of the Presbytery of Trans
ylvania, expressed in very fitting
terms the congratulations of the
Presbytery. DIR. Green has been
most faithful and influential member
of the Presbytery, having missed only
one of its regular meeting in forty
wears. For almost that long he has
been the Presbytery's stated clerk.
Professor C. G.. Crooks spoke few
words for the members of the First
Church, expressing their apprecia-
ton of DR.. Green's faithful and fruit
full ministrations and their personal
love and devotion to him.
The occasion was a memorable one
IN many ways. and the congregation
of the First Church greatly appreci-
ate the tribute paid by both pastors
and people of the other churches to
their beloved pastor.
Dr.. Green expressed his own deep
appreciation Of the hearty good will
and affection shown him by both
speakers and audience.
The benediction by DR.. Green
brought to a close the exercises of
service of delightful Christian fell
lowship.-Danville Advocate.
