T w Hodges, who has so faithfully and ably served the First Methodist p; church of Lancaster for the past four (jyears. a< 2?d. That in times of health, sick- a, nesA death and sorrow he has en- w denied himself not only to his own floclL but also to all the Christian f peo&e of our town and community. n| 3i%. That, recognizing his ability 11 as a preacher and organizer, his ai fdttfctulness and deep sympathy as le a pastV>r,, his soundness in the doc- h trines ofMhe Church of Christ, his or deep piety as a Christian, and also ol the excellent traits of Christian b< character of his devoted wife and children, we do most earnestly commend this faithful servant of God, and his family, to the church at Pickens, S. C., to which the Bishop has assigned them. And, in doing this, we do earnestly pray, that oui Heavenly Father may spare Brothei Hodges for many yenrs yet to the j, South Carolina Conference, which he has served so long and faithfully; ^ and that He will give him many more souls for his hire. s f 4th.

New York, Nov. 25.?The morei txperienced Army team triumphed1 iver the Navy eleven when the foot-| all machines from West Point and, Vnnapolis clashed in their annual [ tattle at the Polo grounds today. The j 'adets* victorious score was 15 to! hut the Middies fought gamely and' frlmly until the final blast of the vht8tl$. Some 50.000 citizens, not counting he governor of New York, cabinet tfiicers. generals, admirals and an aray of lesser lights in both branches if the government service, saw the ombat. Except for the absence of " resident Wilson, the game provided ill the spectacular Incidents which Co to make Army-Navy football batles historic. When the Cadets trooped out of ho stands at the end of the game ind "rushed" the colors, they had 11 'ictories to their credit to the Navy's line and they celebrated this achievenent in time honored fashion. Seven inndred and 60 strong, they massed n front of their beaten rivals, did a terpentine dance about the field beore forming a great oval and then it a given signal rushed pell inell ibout their colors, held aloft by hreo of their number. Chill winds swept through the >acked stands. The gay gowns of he feminine rooters were hidden tinier furs and heavy coats. But there vas no lack of vivid colors. Seas of hrysanthemums swayed as their vearers cheered and shouted, and the icnants of both schools were waved >i oudly. The Soldiers did most of their heering early in the game, for the \rmy started off with a rush.

From tha point it was rushed over to a touch down. It also was Oliphnnt who la ter kicked a field goal. Goodstein, the young centre foi the Navy, was the hero of the An napolis clan. He broke through th< Army line in the period, blocked on< of Vidal's punts and raced 15 yards for a touchdown. Gov. Whitman, Mayor Mitchel Secretary Daniels and Secretary Maker were among the olficial dignita ries wno occupied boxes when th? battalion of Cadets marched on th< field. In light blue uniforms, witl long overcoats and carrying yellow pennants, with a band at their head the Soldiers paraded in company front, dragging a mountain goat a< a mascot. A few moments after the cadet? had cleared the field, the middies about 1,200 strong, marched in witl their blue and crimson uniformed bandsmen. In the long navy blue coats of their service they were in deep contrast to the army. Thej brought a goat as a mascot. Between the second and third periods, Secretary Daniels and Secretary Baker, surrounded by officers higti in their respective services, walker to the centre of the field and greeted each other. In the Hudson river a fleet of It battleships and lesser fighting crati had dropped anchor to give their men and officers a chance to see the game, and it was said that about 10,000 were granted shore leave for this purpose.
