Committee on Applications.
On motion of Secretary Armstrong it was
decided that the presiding elders should
act as committee to decide on course of
study for the ensuing four years.
Rev. Collins Denny of Vanderbilt Univer-
sity moved that the presiding elders pres
ent act as committee on applications for
membership or reapplication or transfer
from other conferences. This proposition
met with opposition. and yet as 1t was
matter that seemed to expedite business
and had been in the last conference the
subject of a memorial. it was ably defend
ed by several members. The argument In
favor of this committee was that the dis
cussion of applicants in open conference
was not at all desirable. The point was
made that the last general conference had
been asked to authorize this method OF
action, but had not done so. Bishop Gran
berry held that 1t was in order to appoint
the committee. as urged by Mr.. Denny, to
act in an advisory way to report on candf-
mission. The motion was carried. The fol-
lowing committee then nominated:
Baltimore. j. w. Duffy; East Baltimore.
J. H. Davidson: Washington, A L. Shipley;
Winchester, w. H. Harper; Rockingham,
Thomas Birley; Roanoke, F. G. Prettyman;
Lewisburg, w. K. Marshall; Moorefeld. C..
Sydenstricker.

pointment of such a committee and the
president took the matter under advise
ment.
