The movement to build a church soon. followed, and after a while ' new building was : erected for the ever-increasing congregation. "Every branch of the church wora was organized, and since that time he has kept in touch with every so ciety ana organization, of the churcn. 'The devotional spirit so manifest in all of his sermons has always been inspiring to his . hearers. He always preaches without notes from the text to tbe closing words." When Mr. Harrison took charge of St. Mark's it was a small mission depending largely upon the Jurisdic tion and. board of missions for its support. ' He immediately set about to make a self supporting parisn, with vestry and other organizations necessary for the accomplishment of nis pians. He advised tbe purchase of the parish house property whica the church now. owns at the corner of Long avenue and Falls street in which are held the , Sunday school services, meetings - of- the vestry, Brotherhood of St. Andrew, Woman's Auxiliary. St. Mark's Guilds Daugh ters oi the King; and the social ar- fairs of the parish.' There Is also a well equipped gymnasium for-bovs In this parish house. . Mr..

He Is a man amonc men simDle. cour ageous and with a stronx convic tions; vitally Interested In all public questions, a clear thinker whose opinions are forcefully expressed. Tender-heearted ' and sympathetic and ever ready to help those needing help -in a word a Christian genntle tnan. It 4s these qualities that have made Mr. Harrison beloved by not only his own people but by those connected with other churches as well, among whom : he has many inenas. -J r :,.

Is predicting early frost this year according to The York ville En quirer", remarked T, C, Smith, rural letter carrier on route one, some days ago. "There was an error in his his tory which -you might correct. He states that the earliest frost in this part of the country in twelve years was on October 12, 1904. As a mat ter of fact of which I have accurate knowledge, we had - a heavy ' frost here on October 10th, 1906, just ten years ago." Of course it Is altogether possible that' we had frost here at that time and they did not have It around Columbia, - Mrr Smith and ' Mr. Houseal may, both, then, be correct. The Gazette does not know what day the first frost appeared here this year, though it was perhaps a week or more ago. There has not yet been a real killing frost but we have had several frosts which were plainly visible on the roofs of houses. KFIK1) BUYS BIO 1-YJRE3IAX 8HOK STOCK. W. R.
