Klrby Brown writes to the Church Forum asking whether the Fee Fee Baptist church, organized In 1807, at Pattonville, St. Louis county, should not rightfully have the title of "the oldest Protestant church west of the Mississippi river." Current reports have cited the First Presbyterian church, which is about 110 years old, as possessing this flrsr distinction as to age. The point seems to be made, in behalf of the claim of the First Presbyterian congregation, that It held continuous services, while there appear to be times at Pattonville, per haps during the Civil war, when the Fee Fee church was closed. The classification Is made, "having continuous existence."--St Louis Post-Dispatch. cat set One hundred two degrees ^ere conferred on future doctors, dentists and pharmacists, by the University of nllnois at Its annual commencement for those branches of the state Institution, which are located In Chicago.

The trip from Little Falls to Kenosha was made in record time, the police along the entire route giving the "home town" car right of way and fast passage.

"As friends of Capt. Lindbergh," said Mr. Nash, "you will find a hearty welcome wherever you stop. Little Falls ai.d the state of Minnesota have reason to be proud of Capt. Lindbergh and after meeting you gentlemen I mitrht add that Minnesota may well lie proud of its delegation from Little Falls." . ^ After a brief visit with Mr. Nash and other officials of the Nash Co., the welcoming committee returned to ts car and followed motorcycle police out of town toward Chicago.
