The NJ. p. conference sessions were
interesting throughout and harmoni-
Gus; the evening sessions were interest
| ing and instructive. The reports from
the different churches showed mark
ed progress in all the departments of
their work. During the year number
of fine churches have been erected and
a number of new church clases have
\ been organized.
| Rev. j. f. Hubbell, the efficient pres
| ident of the conference was reelected
for another year by unanimous vote.
Conspicuous among the visiting
brethren was Rev. G. ID. Coulbourne, of
| Lynchburg, Va, who represented in q
very able manner the cause of the For
eign Missions.
The Woman's Foreign Mission socie-
ty held two very pleasant and protita-
bic sessions IN the NJ. f.. church on
Thursday and Friday afternoons. Mrs.
ID. ;. Cramer was reelected secretary;
and, as this society is represented in
| the National convention which meets
in Baltimore, Md, next May, Mrs. S.
| Windrom was elected representative
from this society. The reports of the
society show a growing interest in the
great work of bringing the whole world
under the golden banner of Divine
truth. Many cheering words of hope
were given in the address presented by
Mrs. Il. n. Mulholland, who has always
been an efficient worker IN this noble
cause.
The Sunday services in the grove
were opened with a very warm and en-
thusiastic love feast that lasted half an
hour Then Rev. Coulbourne spoke
eloquently on "The growing and pre-.
v1illng power of Truth" At the Chris
tan Endeavor rally IN the afternoon
the welcome address was given by Mrs
Hitchings, president of the CapaC
branch, and was responded to by Rev
G. II. Dains. Reports from the differ.
