l'age IVo La . f THE OLD GRAY B> Rev. E. Philip Ellis i We nrmiitnt the Coh*mbtH t< ft- < ' nual -conference held in the capital city last week where </».r stay was ] most pleasant. In fact. Columbia i, our home city and his been for.__ many years. To my mind the conference meeting was a great sue. cess from every tmgle. -DFt-W. B. L. Clark is certainly the right man in the right place and his appoint- pg mistakey We were guests of Dr. O. C. Dunham, the popular presiding elder of the Newberry district who has broken all records according to the statement coming from his ministers, all of whom clammored for his return. My old classmate, Dr. W. J. Robinson, is the acknowledged evangelist end has always been. Rev. T. II. Addison. A. B.. is making a real fine presiding elder. Rev. I. W. Janerette, host ppstor^ is indeed one o*f our best preachers and pastors. Too much cannot be said of the fine set of ministers in this conference. Bishop TTTv-Flipper, Drt)., as-sisted bv 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 swell his head and that means support for hini in our great denomination. We also spent some pleasant hours with Dr. T, J. Miles, leader of our conference, and he is ringing no -..baokLr~g bells. The church univer sal has its eyes on him and mark .my -prediction. _JlC- is apt to be 1 ande<I. Enough said.. Rev. \V. k. I tow man While the above named will report the doings of -the conference proper, suffice us to say just here that the educational address by President S. R. Higgins was among iho h»gf pvtir tli'l ivprnd upon *nch an occasion. It was a wonder to see how he captured Columbia in his masterful speech. Many thot that he would not do quite as well in his home city as he has been doing at other places in the state. But he changed the tide. Say what you will but Allen University is forging ahead as with Leaps and hounds under ms aci m inistni nun. A Worthy Movement The Cosmopolitan Civic League of Charleston of which Mr, John H. Green isr president is doing a most excellent work in this sen-1 port city. Every Negro should be identified with it. As ministers we have pledged to stand by this organization and its great leader o.ne hundred per cent. The Union We had <\ great meeting last Monday; quite a large number o'f ministers were in attendance. The Christmas Seals and the Red Cross drive were the topics dis eussed and the Union went on rec . or<i of putting its full strength behind the heads of both of these programs. This we pledge make both go over the top. At the ck/se of the above meeting, the A. M. E. Alliance held a line session with Dr. R. 1 Lemon. Chr. It's a fine fellowship in both, of these meeting;; every week and the ministers of Charleston are being benefitted by them in no smell way. St. I.uke Last Sunday was a high day in our zion. We preached in the morning aivl Rev. -George W. Maybanks of Freeport. New York stiiTed the audience at nite. ThGreater St. Luke is. one ui the best congregations to bo found mvwhere.

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.

our zion. We preached in themorning aivl Rev. -George W.Maybanks of Freeport. New YorkstiiTed the audience at nite. ThGreaterSt. Luke is. one ui thebest congregations to bo foundmvwhere. Our large new auditorium was crowded at both servicesand the gallery was in de.mand at evening.- We are expect
