there are no more honest or capa-
Bile people, on the average, than the
farmers Of our state. No people are
more worthy Of being given power
and responsibility. None have chill
dren better worth educating. Every
town in the State which supports n
good school has among its residents
men who have left the farm in order
to get better school advantages for
their children. Almost every commu-
nifty has felt the loss Of a leading
citizen who has gone to n town, or

Callahan of the Academy won the
highest number of individual honors,
coming in first in the fifty, one hun
dred, and two hundred and twenty
yard dashes, with Morgan, Captain
of Track, and Dudley Roberts close
seconds. Mr.. Morgan succeeded in
breaking the record in hurdles at %
and 2-5 seconds.
The $50 dash between Dudley Rob-
erts and Daley was one of the SEN
sational events of the day, Roberts
winning by just three inches-in 3
min. sec.
One of the beautiful runs Of the
day was made by Morris in his two
mile race against several good OPP
ponents. Coming in at the end Of
the run, he gathered a burst of mo-
mentum so that he finished a hun
dred yards or more ahead Of any
runner, in 10 min. and so sec, which
established a Berea record.
The walters relay was an anus
ing spectacle that aroused much in
terest and called for much laughter
especially at such times when the run
ners, who were decked in a walters
suit, pitched head first to the grount
with their trays and cups. All SAT-
the affair was most enjoyable AM
better than ever.

DROUTH BROKEN,

All vegetation in this section has
been suffering for rain, and human
ity has been sweltering with heat
with the mercury bobbing up and
down In the nineties for days. There
have been heavy showers all about
us, but Rising Sun got only promises
and sprinkles until Wednesday eve
ming of this week, when a heavy
electric storm swept over us and
precipitated a downpour of rain,
that gave the parched earth a good
soaking and cooled the atmosphere.
According to the Weather Bureau
the hot wave and drouth that were
broken by Wednesdays storm were
the worst ever recorded in June.
Only .3S of an inch OF rain had been
recorded this month up to Wednes-
day, The month also has 10 days
on which the temperature was above
80. Usually 10 times this much
rain falls during this month and the
number Of ultra-hot days is not so
great. The hot wave was general
from the Rocky mountains to the
Atlantic States.

MARRYING PARSON IN BALTI-
MORE PRESBYTERY.

Rev. DR.. John A. McElmoyie of
Elkton, who was removed as pastor
of the Presbyterian Church there by
action of the General Assembly at
it's recent meeting at Lake Winona,
Ind, was admitted to the Baltimore
Presbytery last week.
At the time of removal from the
Elkton church, the standing of Rev.
DR.. McElmoyle as minister was not
challenged and he was, therefore,
subject to call just as any other pas
tor would be who was without a
church. He brought a letter from
the Newcastle Presbytery presenting
all details of the case, and this was
considered by the Baltimore Presby-
terry.
The fact that for the last two
years Rev. DR.. McElmoyle has re-
fused to marry couples unknown to
him was taken as indicating that he
was no longer the marrying par
son" as alleged when the first steps
were taken for his removal.
