E. church of Englewood was introduced by the president, Joe Bartels of Harvard. Dr. Travis is known to the leaguers from the county who attended the league institute at Lake Geneva this summer. The announcement that he was to be dean of next year's institutute was greeted by warm applause. After an interesting and inspiring address the necessary business of the sub-district was transacted. The subdistrict banner, first displayed at this summer's institute, was awarded to the league making the best showing at the rally. This was Greenwood, who, because of having the largest percentage of heir members present, won, altho Haryard had a larger crowd. Alden, as the home league, could not enter and so was not counted.

The 130 registered delegates found the program interesting and helpful beyond their expectation. The people of Marengo spared no effort and their kindness adds another link in the golden chain of remembrance. Miss Pearl Weaver and Rev. L. H. Koehler gave addresses that will be long remembered by.those who heard them. Rev. F. E. Bennett of Chicago presented the work of the Family Altar league. A county-wide movement for the promotion of family worship had been discussed, to be under the direction of the county association, the Family league assisting. This suggestion was voted upon and adopted by the convention. Interesting reports were*presented by tiie county officers, while the roll call of Sunday schools brought some unique and pleasing responses. A brief and impressive memorial service was held, expressing sorrow and loss at the sudden home-coming of Mr. Wm. Sager of Marengo, county adult superintendent. Mrs. M. G. Eckert read of beautiful tribute to the absent friend and F. B. Johnson and Rev. ft. N. Joscelyn, superintendent and pastor of the church in which lie was a Ifaithful and efficient worker, added words of sincere praise. It was with deep regret that friends learned that E. B. Standish, after seven years of quite effective work as county president, had resigned. Much credit is due him for the high degree of efficiency maintained in both county and district organizations in the past few years. Even those most closely associated with him have not always known the extent of his efforts or the difficulty of the problems which were solved. Other names will be missed from'the roll of officers. To each of them and to Mr. Standish we express gratitude for good work done and good wishes for their success in the tasks that call them from us. However, much we miss the old friends, we turn to the new year with con-i fidence and bright hopes because of the officers both new and old who are to lead in the work of the association this year.

A new ice machine has also been installed in'the building and is now in operation, the old machine, which has of late years proven too small for the growing business of the Central meat market and grocery, has been purchased by F.
