RENROcE.

The delegate to the NJ p. confer
ence at Sabina, last week, was j. G..
Dickinson, but at this writing we do
not know who will serve the Rem
rock circuit this year. Some preach
ers say that they are sin the hands
of the Lord and the stationing COM
mittee:" our observation has been
that the former has been given a
very slim chance in some cases.
There is quite an influx of visitors
from various places, and we can
only give a partial list: Vincent Dye
of GAINESVILLE spent a few days
around the old home; Mrs. Lille
McClaren and her niece, Miss Robin
son of Illinois. with relatives here;
Mrs. Rev. Martin and son Herman
of Pennsville. at Tilden's and A. G.
Parks; Mr. and Mrs. Mcdonald Of
Reinersville at Carlos Reeds; Har-
ry S. Carr of st. Louis, with his
half sister here, Mrs Oscar Ham
ilton. Mr.. Carr, who is son of the
late Chas Carr, of Manchester town
ship, holds an important office in
the great railway terminal at st.
Louis. He has been in the employ
for % years, and it has been %
years since his last visit here
The Dickinsons and relatives held
their annual reunion at the Chau-
tauqua pavilion, McConnelsville,
Aug. II. Mrs. Jacob Stalker was
reelected president. 1t will prob
ably be held there again next year.
Those from distance were Rev.
Wilson and wife of Cleveland; Mr.
Stockwell and family of Mansfield;
Mr.. and Mrs. Franz Dickinson of
Youngstown. Unfortunately for us
this date is the same as the Foster
reunion.
Talking about reunions, it was
our privilege to attend the Mt. Zion
Kackley homecoming with the or
chestra, which is three miles east of
Pleasant City For real interest
ing time crammed full of live
wholesome entertainment, this
Homecoming takes the lead of any
thing we have yet seen.
Furthermore, speaking about re-
unions, friend of ours suggested
that maybe the descendants of Adam
and Eve might be induced to hold
reunion. Well, if there was to be
such a thing, some one would want
the editor to print full list of all
present.

However, before concluding that
this barn really has five sides, make
a careful survey of the premises, as

The entertainment at the hall Sat
