oxford Conference.

The annual session oil the Oxford Con
ference was with tho church in Turner,
June 18th and 18th d. b. Robinson o
Turner, was chosen Moderator, and +
+. Shaw, Pmis, Scribe. At IL a. H.,
Rev. ID. Garland, of Bethel. preached an
interesting sermon from Isaiah 45:9 :
''Woe unto him that strivoth with his
Maker"
In the afternoon a halt hour WAS spen.
in devotional exercises. AT = o'clock
toe first topic was taken up, viz: "Havt
we Divine authority for prohibiting
women from preaching?" A spirited
discussion ensued, opened by Rev. D.
Garland, who advocated the right and
proprieiy OF women preaching-lollowed
by the Scribe, Reys. A. Loring OF sum
ner and Tewksbmy of Gorham, Dea. 5
Robinson OF Sumner, and Rev. q. A,
Lockwood. The prevailing sentiment
was, that while woman was valuable
helper in The social meeting, it was moi
her sphere to enter the ministry and oc'
cupy the sacred desk.
The next topic "What should be the
doctrinal basis of church membership in
our Congregational churches" was open
ed by Rev. A. Loring, and being rather
doctrinal subject, did not elicit discus
sion. GLOW shall Christians most effect
uslly recommend religion to the world,
was opened by Rev. e. F. Tewksbury,
who was followed by Bros. S. S Stetson
of Sumner, D. B. Robinson of Turner,
A. w. Valentine Of Bethel, the Scribe
and Rev. Mr.. Jordan.
The evening was given up to the Sab
bath School cause, after half hour spent
in devotional services. "The true rela.
ton of the Sunday School to the church.
was discussed by Rev. Mr.. Lockwood,
Dea. T. G. Goodwin of Norway, bro.
Valentine. and the Moderator. The
Scribe exhibited 1.-THE Bible Roll" and
a Map of Palestine, as aids In the Sabbath
School work.
