that the Rev. Mr. Huffman makes a
decided success of both vocations and
has built up the Orofino church, done
a grand work at the hospital there
and is the real news gatherer of the
Clearwater Republican, Orofino's
leading newspaper. Prior to entering
the ministry Mr. Huffman. was en-
gagged in newspaper work for many
years and he has the "nose for news"
necessary to make a good reporter.
He has reported the conference for a
number of newspapers and this paper
is indebted to him for some valuable
assistance during the week He says
he loves newspaper work as we'll as
work for the church and is happily
able to combine the two and make a
success of both, of reports given by
his friends and neighbors at Orofino
are true, and he has shown ample evil
dence while in Moscow, that they are
the truth.

Care For The Battery.

"Only one way has ever been
found says E. c. Hall, Willard Ser
vice Station dealer, "to prevent stor-
age batteries from being overtaken
with spring fever when the first days
of warm touring weather roll around,
and that goes for the man who drives
all winter as well as for the one who
drains the radiator and put jacks I'M
der the axles at the first heavy frost.
The one way to avoid that tired feel
ing on the part of your battery is
to cooperate with the battery service
station and to take advantage of their
knowledge and experience"
Fright now is the time to make up
your mind that this spring, summer
and winter, you will take extra care
to see that your battery is tested reg
ularly with q hydrometer and that it
is kept up to above 1850 even if adj
ditional charge is required to main
tain that figure"

THE LAYMEN's ASSOCIATION.

More than one hundred laymen from
all parts of the Inland Empire are
here to attend the annual session Of
Laymen' Association Of the Columbia
River conference. Floyd L. Daggett
former mayor of the city of Spokane
is president, having been reelected
for another year. Mr.. Daggett is
probably the most active laymen in
the conference and had done much
constructive work for his church. He
is leading the laymen in a great CAM
paign to raise a quarter of million
dollars for the Spokane Deaconess
hospital. The campaign for funds will
be launched in October and will re-
ceive the hearty support of every
charge in the conference
R. L. Brainard of Kellogg succeeds
the late John Sarginson as secretary
of the Laymen's Association, whose
demise after many years of service
for his church is lamented by all who
know his work and it's value to Meth
odism. Mr. Brainard is young man
but has attained leadership by his
winning personality and his service to
the church. He was one of four dele
gates elected to the last general con-
ference. TIL impression that he made
upon the membrs of that graf body
secured for him place on the newly
created Council of Benevolences
which is the most important organi-
cation in Methodism Mr. Brainard is
a newspaper man.

held place of leadership second to
no minister of any denomination.
DR.. T. A. Lane

Banquet A Big Success
Every on of the 1926 seats provided
for the laymen's banquet held in K. G.
hall last night, was occupied and the
banquet, one the largest ever held
here, was one of the big features of
the conference week The guests filed
in and occupied the tables, each table
being filled before anyone was per-
mitted to take seats at the others. AS
table was filled those seated there
began singing Methodist hymns and
the banquet almost became revival.
Floyd L. Daggett, Of Spokane, presi-
dent of the Laymen's Association,
who was reelected yesterday, pre-
sided. Bishop Shepard delivered the
chief address and declared that the
doors OF Europe are open to Method
ism and urged that greater effort be
made to carry the work Of the church
to the old world.

LEADERS OF THIS
YEARS CONFERENCE

Leadership of the Columbia River
conference is changing. The leaders
of yesterday are passing from the
arena. A new generation is taking
their places. Henry Brown and M. H
Marvin, the outstanding pioneers OF
the past, are on the retired list ir
their relation to the conference.
These men were towers OF
of strength in their day, and their
places have not been easy to fill. A
new generation is springing up, per-
haps no less devoted and no less COM
petent to manage the affairs of this
growing conference. The social and
economic changes brought on by the
great war demand new type of lead
ership. The men of today are being
trained to meet the changing condi-
tons that now obtain. And the young
er men are growing up under educa-
tlonal and social advantages not en-
joyed by the men of old, many of
whom, instead of being educated in
the colleges, obtained their meager
learning by reading their limited
number of books while riding to their
appointments in their saddles. They
were men of daring and courage, ele-
ments indispensable to the pioneer.
To them is due the credit of laying
the foundations upon which the men
of today may build. The fidelity of
these men is seen in the churches,
great and small, that are this year
represented at the annual conference.
Bishop Shepard
First and foremost among the lead
ers this year is the presiding officer,
Bishop Shepard. He is known as a
man of great modesty throughout
Methodism. He stands in such high
favor among the bishops that the
delegates to the last general confer
ence, held at DesMoines in May, unan-
imously requested the committee on
episcopancy to send him to the Port
land area as the successor to the late
Bishop Matt S. Hughes, the incom-
parable orator The new presiding
bishop is making himself deservedly
popular among the members Of the
conference by his democratic attitude
toward the men whose destiny he
holds in the palm of his hand. The
bishop is the apostle of open diplo-
macy in the conferences that he con-
ducts
The District Superintendent
Next to the presiding bishop in rank
are the district superintendent, of
whom there are five. These men and
the bishop compose the cabinet, which
is the body that adjusts all the minis
terial appointments. The district
superintendent serve only in an adj
-visory capacity, the bishop being the
actual sponsor for every appointment
that is made.
We subjoin, in alphabetical order,
the names of the five districts and
give brief sketch of each one of the
superintendent.

Moscow District

|
The Moscow district was formed
three years ago by taking part of two
other districts. Charles McCaughey
the humorist of the conference, was
appointed superintendent when the
new district was created. DR.. Nc
Caughey entered the ministry of the
Methodist church in the Columbia
River conference in 1908 and he serv-
ed ever since without single year
of intermission. He is an executive
and preacher of outstanding ability
There is pit and pith in every sermon
that he breaches. He ranks among the
leading pulpiteers in the conference
Spokane District
Dr. U. F. Hawk is serving the Spo-
kane district for the second time. He
has preached within the bounds of
this conference for about twenty-five
years and has for many years taken a
leading part in the activities of the
conference. DR.. Hawk is man of
fine personal bearing, always a gen
tleman and brother. 1t is because
of his service to this conference and
because of his personal popularity
among the preachers that they have
twice elected him a DELEGATE to the
general conference.
Walla Walla District
Dr. N. M. Jones, superintendent of
| the Walla Walla district, has been a
minister in the conference about fiji
tenn years. By his ability and his ge-
niality he has worked his way up
from the ranks to the place of leader
ship which he now holds. DR.. Jones
has always stood in high favor with
the charges that he has served, and
he is held in high esteem among the
men of his district.
Wenatchee District
DR.. j. w. Caughlan was appointed
to the Wenatchee district year and
half ago, to succeed Robert Brum-
blay, resigned. DR.. Coughlan is the
son of minister and was thorough
ly trained for the ministry. He be-
lieves in his church and is a staunch
exponent of her polity. Tireless in
his energy, he keeps in close touch
touch with every charge entrusted to
his care. DR.. Caughlan is deservedly
popular among his men, For five
years he served as pastor of the
church at Pullman, which has always
demanded high degree of preaching
ability.
The Dalles District
H. F. Pemberton, superintendent Of
The Dalles district, is one of the
younger leaders of the conference. Mr.
Pemberton is a graduate of one of the
leading Methodist colleges. He was
trained for missionary work and SER
we'd several years in India. No man in
the active relation working within the
bounds of the conference has inspired
as much interest in missions as he
Contributions to the missionary cause
increase by leaps and bounds on every
charge that he serves.
The Conference Secretary
John Evans is one of the pioneers of
the conference. No other man has
served as long as he in the capacity of
secretary. Having an eye to detail,
he is peculiarly adapted to this work.

man as long as he is willing to serve

OLD WEEKLY PASSES.
Hartford, Conn, Weekly Times Lived
105 Years.

With the issue of the Weekly Times
for July 90 that paper, which had been
published continuously since January
/, 1917, suspended publication. 1t is
with regret that the publishers make
this announcement, but changes come
with the years and the functions of
the paper are no longer operative.
Much sentiment attaches to the
weekly issue of The Times, which was
founded by Frederick d. Bolles and
John NJ Niles as champion OF the
party of the constitution. John M.
Niles and Gideon Welles were the dis
tinguished editors of the paper in the
carly years and they made of it pow
erfuf organ in behalf of democracy.
In 1925 began a semiweekly edition Of
The Times, issued on Monday and
Thursdays, the weekly in those days
appearing on Tuesdays. Later a tri-
weekly edition was published. Both Of
these editions lapsed after time. On
January |, 1880, A. +. Burr bought
one half interest in The Times from
Judge Henry A. Mitchell and for few
months, during the spring campaign,
ran daily morning edition, which was
suspended after the election. On Jan
uarv |, 1871, Mr.. Burr became the sole
owner and, on March ,, Of that
year started The Daily Times, which,
for two months, was published as a
morning paper, but in May began its
permanent publication in the evening.
The Weekly Times for all these
years, issued twice a week for the
last IS years, has been highly valued
by people who have lived too far away
from Hartford to secure the daily on
the day of issue. 1t has had a circu'
lation as high as 10000, but that cir
culation has gradually fallen of as the
daily paper has spread out through the
facilities Of transportation. The ven
cradle weekly issue has now reached
the point, where its publication in
wolves greater expense than il
Yields II has not been used as an
advertising medium for some years.
In disseminating the publication Of
the weekly, The Times hopes that its
faithful subscribers, so fas as they are
able, will take advantage of the op-
portunity to subscribe to the daily pa
per. To those who are unable TO do
