H. Bentley, superintendent of the local public schools, at the meeting of the Ministerial Association, Monday morning. Prof. Bentley told of the difficulties in the public schools, and said that if the religious school proposition was to 1 be successful, It would be necessary to get the parents of all of the students back of the move. He gave some of the weaknesses of the Sunday school, telling why a more methodical method of religious instruction is necessary to gain the best results. Graded Sunday school instruction, Instead of standardized lessons, was advocated by the speaker. He declared that religion must be made an integrate part of education, if its full worth is to be realized.

Face Hard Tasks "We are facing no easy task. We have our full part in the readjustment of human affairs after the world tumult. We have our task at home; we have out part in the inevitable work of the civilized world. 1 am sure that the necessity of wise solution will inspire us to work together, to take common counsel, to be tolerant of one another; and give the best which i3 in all of us to attaining the end which becomes our republic at home and will maintain its high place among the nations of the earth. Will H. Hays, chairman of the Republican national- committee was among those who called at Senator Lodge's room and talked with the president-elect. Mrs. Harding sat in the senatorial gallerq during the senator's address, having slipped in almost unnoticed by spectators, soon after the senata convened. The third and final session of the 66th congress began today with President-elect Harding in his seat in the senate The galleries began to fill early tn the day and were crowded when the gavels of Vice-President Marshall and Speaker Gillett fell promptly at noon. Senator Harding was given a round of applause as he entered the senate chamber just before noon. Spectators rose all over the galleries to obtain a better view of the president-elect, who entered from the Republican cloakroom with Senator Lodge, Republican leader. Mr. Harding was surrounded by a crowd of senators, who shook his ho.nd and slapped him' on the back. The president-elect welcomed his admirers with a broad smile. Wait for President Senator Harding spoke briefly and. the senate then "adjourned without transacting any business to await a comunication from President Wilson. One of the first steps by the Repub lican majority in the house to place the country on a peace time basis was taken by Representative Volstead, of Minnesota,, chairman of the judiciary committee, who introduced a bill repealing all war time statutes except the trading with, the enemy, food con trol, District of Columbia rent;, Liberty bond and espionage acts. Favorable reports on th,e Johnson bill, prohibiting immigration into the United States for a period of two years was ordered today'by the house immigration committee. Chairman Johnson, of tbe committee, said the measure would be given preference it the house.

UN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND.

CATTLE PRICE DROPS TO LOW SINCE 1916; GRAIN TONE CHANGES There seems to be a change in the mental tone as to all grains. At least that, was the indication In all western markets last week. At the close of the week December wheat was over 15 cents up, compared with a week ago; corn 3Vi to 6 cent3 higher, with barley up 4 to 6 cents, and oats at new high level3 on the present rise. While the closing was a little under the .top. prices were well maintained, December wheat closing at $1.71, with March at $1.66. December corn closed at 72, May at 76, and July at 77. Oats closed a .shade higher at 47 for December against 77 cents on the same date last year. May oats closed at 52 cents on Saturday. The bears who have been raiding tbe market for weeks finally called a halt last week and covered most of their deals. The export demand also figured in the advance and many of the best posted gram men admit that our surplus of wheat -is pretty well sold out for thus early in the crop year, ehould all purchases made by foreigners actually go forward. At all events, the United States i3 not overloaded with wheat, there being plenty of time left in which to market every bushel we can spare prior to the new harvest. Cattle Lowest In pour Years. Cattle prices on Saturday ruled the lowest in nearly four years, the average price of good beef steers being $10.75. There was a decline of from $1 to $3 during the week, with fair to good fat steers off most. Good fat lambs ruled higher, the advance being upward of $1, the week's average reaching $11.80. Heavy Hog Receipts More hogs arrived at Chicago last week than in any week since last May. A total of 175,000 head came in, but despite this pressure the average price made a gain of 21 cents per hundred weight on the week. Compared with a week ago the top at $10.40 was up 15 cents over Saturday, Nov. 27. While this is but a small gain, it is at least encouraging In the face of such large receipts. Indianapolis Market Steady In spite of receipts of 8,000 hogs at Indianapolis Saturday, this being considerably over the estimates for the day, hogs fully held at Friday's figures. The greater part of the business was transacted on the basis of $10.50, although several cars of light Yorkers brought a dime more. Although but 200 fresh cattle came in, the market was draggy and' slight concessions were made by shippers, rather than to carry stock over until Monday. The 300 calves met with a good demand and advanced 50 cents to $1. with choice veals selling as high as $14.50. Good to choice lambs were weak at Indianapolis last week, the best prices on best lambs Saturday ranging at $10 to $10.50. Business at Glen Miller They had a fairly busy week at Glen Miller, about 700 hogs coming in, and all but one carload being cleared by Saturday night Hogs sold at from $9 to $10, depending on the market on day of sale, also on quality. A few fat sows were taken in at from $7 up. A few truck loads of hogs came in Monday morning and it is expected that the yards will be cleared by night. Two cars of cattle were shipped last week, including a few veals. Sheep have been bringing so little money that none was brought to the local yards last week. FARMERS OFFER HELP TO MILK PRODUCERS Members of the Wayne Cojinty Milk Producers' association were assured of the support of the members of the Farmer's federation when they met in the office of County Agent Dolan Saturday evening. A committee from tht Farmers federation headed by the president, T. C. Davis, was preeent ct that time for the purpose Inclement weather interfered somewhat with the atendance, but in spite of this fact about 50 prospective members were present. The organization drew up a constitution and bylaws, and appointed a committee to secure a speaker for the next meting which will be held W'ednosday, Dec. 8. The constitution will be voted on r.t the next meeting. About 150 milk producers are expected to be present at the next meeting. The Women's Industrial League of Great Britain, asked 5,000 firms for a statement of their experience with women as industrial workers. Nearly 1,500 replies were received from companies whose experience had been encouraging enough for them to retain women in their employ and in many concerns to increase the number.

There was a number of such cases at Glen Miller last week. In one instance 'we noted a bunch of . hogs that averaged 175 pounds unloaded from a truck. The owner said he had a lot more at home and thought he would divide the risk of a lower market by selling some of them. -''. Frank Knoll, of ' Whitewater, is mourning the loss of a barrel of sweet cider, which was rolled away from in iront of his house. Mr. Knoll hauled a load of apples to the cider mill at Chester and came back at night with a barrel of cider, which he let stand outtide to be largely used in the making of apple butter the next day. He had his big kettle and plenty of apples ready for the work the next morning, but was minus the cider. Fly in Preble Wheat. Earl Brandenburg, whose folks are fanning is the New Westville district, reports fly infesting some of the very iaetst sown wheat.

Leading agriculturists of the country are meeting here today for a threeday convention, the second annual gathering of the American Farm Bureau Federation. The principal question to be decided, according to an announcement from the convention headquarters, is to devise means for ending soon the depression now felt by the farming industry and toward this end plans will be discussed for moving large stocks of grain, wool and cotton left in the hands of the producers. The announcement declared that effort .-would be made to Gheck falling prices, which it added are in many instances at the pre-war levels. The formulation of a national agricultural policy will be undertaken, federation officers said, with the view if preventing a recurrence of the condition which they described as now confronting the farmers. A feature of the policy was expected to be a system of co-operative marketing, which will bring the producer and consumer into closer relation and restrict the activities of middlemen. Consider Legislation. Organized agriculture's attitude toward national legislation also will be -letermined at the convention. Among the important measures, which it was announced will be considered are the Capper-Volstead bill, exempting producers' organizations from the antitrust laws, the French truth-in-fabric hill, reoulring manufacturers of woolen goods to label their products so he consumer may know the nercentnse of virgin wool and shoddy, the Kahn-Wadsworth bill, authorizing the "overnment to operate the Muscle Shoals. Ala., nitrate nlant for producing commercial fertilizer, and the bill granting f t.000.000.000 U. S. government credit to Germany for making purchases of food and raw materials in this country. Speakers, who will address the convention, include men of International nrominence. their subjects relating to finance, transportation and other matters directly affecting agriculture. Among these sneakers on the prosrara re, Governor Hn-d'ng of the Federal Reserve Board. Herbert Hoover, former food administrator, Governor Wsrdirr of Iowa: T. H.
