STRANGER still Is the statement made by
Anthony Trollope. the distinguished English
writer, when he visited this city in 1862 which
tells US that: Massachusetts avenue runs the
whole length OF the CITY, and is inserted on
the maps as a full grown street, about miles
in length. Go there. and you will find your
self not only out of town, away among the
fields, but you will find yourself beyond the
fields in an uncultivated, undrained wilderness
Tucking your trousers up to your knees YOU
will wade through the bogs you will lose your
self among rude hillocks; you will be out Of

The home of Secretary Crawford stood on

20 years ago. AS the writer recalls it, it was a
brick building, sort of square in shape and
painted light color. At one time it did politi-
cal duty by serving the Republican head.

Another resident of the Terrace, at 1899, was

December, 1843. However, w. b. Bryan In
his History of the National Capital" which Is
well worth following supplies another date,
when he says: Pour yeats after the Disciples
Of Christ, or Christian Church, had, in 1880, be-
come a distinct denomination, q church was
founded in this city" which manifestly places
the date OF the origin Of the church here as
1884. For authority for his statement Mr..
Bryan gives: "Histo ical Note in Register Of
the Membership of the Christian Church, YER
mont avenue and N street, Washington, 1882"
Though the writer did not see the little
Campbellite Church moved yet later In the
decade from 1870 to 1880 he saw many frame
structures moved from the downtown part of
Washington to the suburbs and today he is
able TO point out a number Of buildings moved
during that period, the work being principally
done by Mr.. Saers, who lived for years IN
Mount Pleasant.
Perhaps there very few who were eye
witnesses TO the moving of this little church.
which we are told created much amusement
because Rev. Bartholomew went ahead Of the
mules with oats to coax them along" and, that
Mr.. RooSe gave the workmen their lunches to
keep them on the job"
This pioneer preacher seems to have been
always doing good work, and has been referred
to as the man who was born to build churches"
for wherever he went he left behind a church
that was not there when he came, and in
Washington he also left a vigorous Sunday
school.
Though this old preacher has long since
earned his just reward, yet many will be inter.
ested In learning that Mrs. Bartholomew, now
% years old, is still with us, and resides In
Lincoln, Nebr., but unfortunately, is blind and
crippled though mentally alert.

lamented Garfield frequently visit there ON
Sabbath mornings, accompanied by Mrs. Gar
field and his dear old mother, who in her old
age leaned heavily on his arm. When the time
came for erecting the present brick church. the
little frame building was moved back to Four
teenth street, little nearer to Rhode Island
avenue and here the congregation worshipped
until the new building was completed, when,
according to the statement of W. p. Lipscomb,
who supertntended the construction of the
present building on Vermont avenue and who
still resides here, the old building was RACED,
as the public authorities would not permit it to
be removed elsewhere.
The old church is said to have been 40 feet
wide by so feet long, with a gallery at the east
end. The seating capacity given of 400 is quite
likely overestimated.
Rev. r. d. Power, who followed Rev. Bar
tholomew as pastor of the Vermont Avenue
Church, is no doubt pleasantly recalled by ever
so many Washingtonians Not only was he an
excellent preacher, but he was also a lovable
man, and whatever success the Christian
Church may have had in this city large
part, indeed, can be att ibuted to his good work.
During his pastorate Of this church he was
honored by the United States Senate, which
made him chaplain Of that body, where he served

Moody on the Firing Line

Gov. Moody after pushing along the buy a bale Of
cotton movement turned his attention TO the unem-
ployment problem. He advised his highway commits
sioners and the road engineers that much Of the
road work Is manual labor and now that the crops
hav efailed and the farmers demand employment to
earn money with which to buy food and clothing. it
is up to us to do all possible
Very optimistic is the retiring governor OF Texas.
In his message to civic organizations he said: Il
firmly believe that We will be able to take 100000
bales of cotton off the market SO that people who
have done drudgery in the cotton fields of the south,
to produce a commodity In world wide demand. may
get a reasonable return for their effort. It is I'M
considerable that a world market should require our
people to gather their crop under the ~blistering
southern sun for a price below the cost Of produc-
ton"
Push along the "buy-a-bale" movement. Push
along highway construction and furnish idle labor
ers in farm or city an opportunity to keep the home
fires burning-the home fires Of those who are de-
pendent upon them-those they love. There is a Let
of human kindness in the heart of America and in
the hearts Of Americans.

There are vast church organizations in Texas.
There's are huge fraternal organizations. There are
chambers Of commerce ever kept functioning by the
enterprising and the far seeing. In 1924-25 the
Texas drouth was a real drouth. When Grover

SALMON FISHING FOR YEAR ALMOST ENDED;
 ONE DISTRICT OPEN

With the closing today of the ! Southern and North Prince of Wales Island districts, commercial salmon fishing, except by trolling, in Southeast Alaska is ended for the current season in all but one district-South Prince of Wales Is- land. It will close there next Satur- day night.
 Final pack tgures for the district will be available early next week.
 A Fall fishing season south of the 58th parallel of north latitude is provided for between October l and 15, but it is understood none of the canneries contemplate operat- ing in that period.
 Fishing by gill nets is permitted in the Stikine area to September 90, and in the Yakutat area up to the same date. Chilkat Inlet is open to gill netters September 5 to September 30.
