The Presbytery of Princeton met at Francis, Ky. Tuesday Oct. 7th. The pre-presbyterial con ference met at 10:a.m. This con ference was full of interest and prepared the way for a more sat satisfactory - isfactory satisfactory work of the Presbytery. The woman's work in the Pres bytery was ably presented by Miss Grace Adamson. There is douhtless a large' per centof the churches in Presbytery of Prince ton that have Missionary Socie Societies - ties Societies than any other Presbytery f the Synod. Yet Miss Adam- son is working hard to have a Society in every church and to bring them allua higher! state of efficiency. The able discussion on evan gelisrn showed the importance of this work, Rev. F. F. Flaniken, I)., Madisonville, is chairman ind is the right man forjthe place As a result of this discussion it was decided in presbytery to iave a Counsel Meetingon Evan gelism in Princeton, Ky., Nov. th. at 10:IM) o'clock, consisting of all the pastors, as many church ollirrrs as can come and the lead ers of Young People's Society, Women's Society, etc. The pur xise of this Council is to plan an evangelistic campaign to reach very church during the year with etlicieht evangelistic ser vices. Ihe opening sermon was preached at 8 o'clock, p. m., by lev. Willis Smith, the retiring Moderator. After the opening sermon Rev. T. G. Koontz. I). D, representing the New Era Move merit, made an able address. P. Flaniken, D. I), was elected Moderator. The Presbytery made a com plete apportionment for our New Ira proportion, and it is planning completely to organize every hurch and to raise the fill amount. Ihe communion service was one of the sweetest we have ever uau. A strong sermon was preached by Rev. F. P. Flaniken after which the elements were most impressively administered by Kevs. John A. Tropler anil J. II. King. An appropriate Memorial Ser vice was held in sacred memory of Rev. A. J. Thomson. The Frances people were re markable generous and noble, in their entertainment, and the en tertainment committee, headed bv W. W. Millikan, could not nave been excelled. The boys who met us at the train and car ried us back and lortn are worthy of our sincerest gratitude The Presbytery decided to en deavor to put a New Era Mag' azine in every home in the Pres bytery before the first of January This is only a step toward put ting a church paper in every home. It was one of the sweetest spiritual Presbyteries the writer has ever seen, not a single neg alive vote being cast during the entire Presbytery and not a note of disharmony occurred at any time. Dr. Koontz will visit severa of the churches, organizing the New Era Movement in them before he leaves the Presbytery The next meeting of Presby terv w ill lie held, the Lord will ing, at Providence, Ky.

Prohibition Ann lid men t. Ky Kkv. .1 ti:s F. I'ltici:. As 1 go over the slate every now ami t' en I hear some tem tem-erance - erance tem-erance man say "We now have war time prohibition and we soon shall have national con constitutional - stitutional constitutional prohibition: what is the use of voting on a state con stitutional amendment"? I want to answer in Hi'ole language, "Much every way". The sale of intoxicants is going t" be one of the hardest matters to control that this government has t-ver had to contend with. lonk at the arrests every day, ami yet the law is far from be being - ing being in forced.

We need every restriction Mssible thrown around this furious business. We need state constitutional prohibition and then stringent laws to en enforce - force enforce it. W hen we have federal prohibition and State prohibition and where Uitli federal and stale omcers iM-opeiaie io iireaK up the selling of intoxicants, it can be done.

And do you think those distillers arc going to let it lie there and make no elfort to lisposeof it? Millionsof dollars lying up in these warehouses and milk' no effort to dispose of it? If you think so you are badly fooled. If anv State needs a prohibition amendment certainly Kentucky docs. We now have a bailee to get it. Shall we avail ourselves of this opportunity?
