Lancaster, Va., Dooember 17.?Thoj
Rev. Fredorlck William Claybrook,;
who for tho past twenty-six years has
been pastor of the Kllmarnook and Irv-I
lngton Baptist Churches, and also of
tho Baptist chapels at Weems and, Wl-I
comlco since their organization, hasi
tendered his resignation to take effect
on January 1, 1912. During his pas-j
torato In Lancaator four houses of;
worship have boen built, and tho con-'
gregatlona that worship In them oro
united and prosperous. It was under,
tho direction of Mr. Claybrook that!
Wharton Grovo Camp Mcotlng on the;
Rappahannock III vor was organized j
many years ago, and the aucooss of the
annual mooting has been largely duo1
to hie wise administration. It Is thoi
purpose of Mr. Claybrook to continue;
to reside at his home In tho village
of Kllmarnock and to officiate In thai
churches from tlmo to time as hlsj
health will pormlt.
Another Baptist minister of Lan- j
caster, known and honored through-1
out tho limits of the Commonwealth,'
the Rev. Wayland F. D?na way, D. D.,!
will also terminate his lung pastorate
Of the Baptist churches In the upper!
part of Lancaster with the close of
the current year. Ho, like Mr. Clay?
brook, expects to preach as long as
he lives. He has Just completed his
seventieth year, and In tendering his
resignation he has carried out a de?
termination formed many years ago. I
Both Mr. Claybrook and Dr. Dunawayl
aro members of old and highly lnllu-j
entlal families of tho Northern Neck.
A. Lincoln Dryden, doputy collector.
of customs at the port of Crlsflcld, has
bcon cruising In tho waters of tho,
Chesapeake and Its tributaries In
search of men who have been vtolat-'
ing the United States navigation - laws.'
Several oyster boat captains have been j
arrested on the charge of shanghaiing!
and otherwise maltreating dredgers.
Collector Dryden's expedition Is said'
to have spread such consternation
among many of tho oyster boat cap-,
tains that they have dismissed their
crews and gone homo to prepare fori
tho Christmas holidays.
Owing to the stormy weather that.
haB prevailed for tho laat three days,
the meeting of tho Lancaster Teach-1
era' Association was not largely at?
tended. After attending to routine I
business, the meeting adjourned nub- I
Jeol to tho call of tho division super?
intendents of schools.

quire Ir.to the advisability of lending'
tho chamber's support to the proposed
extension of tho Seven Pines olectrloj
line to Urbanna. The project was re?
ported favorably by a subcommittee!
on stroets. In tor urban olectrlo rail - j
ways bear an Intimate relation to tho
growth and progress of a city, and
tn tili? manner coino within the sccpo
of tho chnmber'n actlvltle?. If the in?
quiry results In the conviction that
tho pioposcd line Is ieslrublo at this
tlmo, and will supply a transporta?
tion demand which Is of auillclont
magnitude, the Chnmbor of Commerce
will throw the weight of Its entire
business membership In favor of Its.
early construction.
"The value of adequate lnterurban'
electric service ae a feeder to a city
and at an agent for th? general good,"'
said Etuslnes6 Manager Dabnoy, "cun-:
not be overestimated. Richmond Is'
In this respect far ahead of any South?
ern city, and, as far as I know, bet?
ter supplied than any city of Its pop-|
ulatlon In the United States. Inter-,
ui^ant prevent the formation of'
highly congested tonement districts by
making possible suburban homes, and
In general help to reduce tho cost ot
living by affording cheap transporta-.
tlon to and from market"
While many cities In the Middle
West uro conneotod by long trunk linos j
none of them that has the population;
of this city has as many radiating In- j
terurban lines. The notable exception
is Indianapolis, with a population of.
230,000, however, which Is a veritable!
hub of scores of lnterurban olectrlo]
roads reaching out to every cornor
of the State. Its supremacy .In that
section of the country Is attributed 1
entirely to the exceptional facilities'
It enjoys as a centre of converging
electrle and steam railway lines. With
tho gradual growth of country popu?
lation In Virginia, and an Increased
demand for quick and cheap transpor?
tation by tho farmers, the day Is not
far dlutant, thinks Mr. Dabney, when
Richmond will blooms the Indianapolis
of the South.

moot IIb approach with the knowl?
edge?and duo appreciation of the fact
?that fat pocketbooka present an
equally fat opportunity, and a thou?
sand otherB to whom they day will bring
no Joy. Thune who have will enjoy
the festive day In some sort of ban?
queting hall. Others will attempt to
lay In a stock of plcnsuro and money
at the risk of upending Christmas Day
behind tho bars. And others, whose
name Is legion, will awaken on that
happy morning In a cheerless homo
and with an empty stocking. Psy?
chologists 6ny that there Is no joy so
great as that of the Child, no grief no
deep. They Bay that the child has
nothing by which to measure n> Joy
and Its grief. The one Is Immeasura?
bly great; the otfier Immeasurably
doep. And all children, from the dny
that thoy first lisp the magic name
of Him who Ib the benefactor of all,
children, look forward to the natal
day with keen desire. And In a thou?
sand Instances and more their hopes
are built on a foundation of sound.
And when they awaken hours before
the world la nfitlr and tlnd their little
stockings empty thero Is no pen of any
mastor which can deplnt their unut?
terable grief.
Partly for that reason there will bo
many who during thin week will prey
upon their more fortunate brothers
und Bi?lers, and frequent the depart?
ment stores where opportunity will be
presented to steal, But porhnps most
of the light-fingered gentry un,i gen?
tlewomen slenl boenuso the*' want to
steal and bounuse the living is easy.
So the Police. Pepartmont has dutntlcd
a special squad of plain clothes mou
to patrol the streets and watch the
stores for pickpockets and general
thieves. Two men wcro assigned a
week ago to watch tho big stores,
and during this week the forco will
bo Increased. Several men and wo?
men have already been picked up, but
in every case tho proprietors of tho
stores refused to prosecute, and the
offenders were released with a warn?
ing. Major WerTaer wqulu tsso this
warning to all: to koop a close touch
on one's pockethook and hnndhag and
not to loave packages unprotected In
automobiles or other vehicles on the
strool. "Remove the temptation," ho
says, "and you will havo less steal?
ing." In all the big stores tho police
plain clothes men are supplemented
with apcclall hired detectives, and In
thla way kleptomania and plain steal?
ing are aupsreased to a large extent.
