GREEN WANTS MORE rAcyrr.
Along in October Harry Pearson
went east for the purpose of getting
married. He had not gone to Green's
more than once or twice after the con-
versation between him and Scragys. hut
he consoled himself in leaving with the
thought that it would not be long be-
fore he was back again; and he hoped
by that time to be able to sway Louise
to his wishes.
Scraggs said nothing to the Greens of
the young mans intentions, for in the
first place he realized that they would
be slow to believe him. and in the sec
ond place he found it a little diff
cult TO approach them on such n sub
ject. Then again he told himself that
1t would be premature, anyhow, to
speak then, as it was probable that
once married Harry would give up his
designs on Louise, and even il he didn't
1t would be time enough to speak when
Pearson came back. So the matter
rested.
The boom at Paradise Park assumed
greater proportions every hour. The

The old Pittsburg Conference was organ
lied on September 10, 1926, in Pittsburg,
with Bishop George presiding. From the
territory embraced in the Pittsburg
Conference the Erie Conference was
organized in 1886, at Wheeling, w.
Va. then, again, in 1S49, at Brownsville,
Pa, the West Virginia Conference
was formed, which was ordered by the
General Conference in 1848, the highest
legal body of the church, meeting once
every four years. There was also one more
division in 1876, when the East Ohio Con-
ference was formed. The first session of
the ministers ever held in Uniontown was
in 1880, Bishop Soule presiding Sixteen
years later it met again at the same place,
and its next session was in $780,
This weeks gathering of the ministers
will be of great Importance to the town, as
there will be more than 225 of them, which
will mean the death of at least 100 chickens
for the five days spent here. Besides the
great influence exerted in various religious
movements, prominent feature will be the
election Of delegates to the General Con-
ference. Of course the presiding elders are
all candidates, and so is the editor of the
Pittsburg Christian Adyocate
