f THE OLD GRAYB> Rev. E. Philip Ellis

iWe nrmiitnt the Coh*mbtH t< ft- <

' nual -conference held in the capitalcity last week where </».r stay was ]most pleasant. In fact. Columbiai, our home city and his been for.__many years. To my mind the conferencemeeting was a great sue.

cess from every tmgle. -DFt-W. B. L.Clark is certainly the right man inthe right place and his appoint-

pg mistakeyWe were guests of Dr. O. C.

Dunham, the popular presidingelder of the Newberry district whohas broken all records accordingto the statement coming from hisministers, all of whom clammoredfor his return. My old classmate,Dr. W. J. Robinson, is the acknowledgedevangelist end has alwaysbeen. Rev. T. II. Addison. A. B..is making a real fine presidingelder. Rev. I. W. Janerette, hostppstor^ is indeed one o*f our bestpreachers and pastors. Too muchcannot be said of the fine set ofministers in this conference.

Bishop TTTv-Flipper, Drt)., as-sistedbv Bishop A. J. Allen, ren-

dered real service m uie inccuu^.While in the city, we spent sonic

time with Dr. E. A. Adams, our

general officer, and he is the same

today. Promcrtion does not swellhis head and that means supportfor hini in our great denomination.We also spent some pleasant hourswith Dr. T, J. Miles, leader of our

conference, and he is ringing no

-..baokLr~g bells. The church universal has its eyes on him and mark.my -prediction. _JlC- is apt to be1 ande<I. Enough said..

Rev. \V. k. Itow manWhile the above named will reportthe doings of -the conference

proper, suffice us to say just herethat the educational address byPresident S. R. Higgins was amongiho h»gf pvtir tli'l ivprnd upon *nchan occasion. It was a wonder tosee how he captured Columbia inhis masterful speech. Many thotthat he would not do quite as wellin his home city as he has beendoing at other places in the state.But he changed the tide. Say whatyou will but Allen University isforging ahead as with Leaps andhounds under ms acim inistni nun.

A Worthy MovementThe Cosmopolitan Civic League

of Charleston of which Mr, JohnH. Green isr president is doing a

most excellent work in this sen-1port city. Every Negro shouldbe identified with it. As ministerswe have pledged to stand bythis organization and its greatleader o.ne hundred per cent.

The UnionWe had <\ great meeting last

Monday; quite a large number o'fministers were in attendance. TheChristmas Seals and the RedCross drive were the topics diseussed and the Union went on rec

. or<i of putting its full strengthbehind the heads of both of theseprograms. This we pledgemake both go over the top. Atthe ck/se of the above meeting,the A. M. E. Alliance held a linesession with Dr. R. 1 Lemon. Chr.It's a fine fellowship in both, ofthese meeting;; every week andthe ministers of Charleston arebeing benefitted by them in nosmell way.
