nesrly two weeks. Last night the house
party was augmented by several charm
ing girls, and by today the house party
will be complete.
Miss Nell Conner and Miss Stella Foy
OF Eufarla and Miss Annie Conner of
James, Ala, reached Birmingham last
night. With them came Mr.. Conner, who
returned from a short visit to Eufaula
and his son, Mr.. Fletcher Conner, and his
nephew, Mr.. Edwafd Conner of Eufau
the latter having just returned from the
University of Virginia
Miss Benelle Conner will return today
from st. Simonds, where she was a guest
at a house party given by Miss Johnston
of Georgia, and will have as her guests
Miss Johnston ard Miss Stuart, the latter
Of Tennessee. Mrs. Blount and Miss Cath
crime Conner will complete the party, and
the Conner house, famed for its charming
hospitality, will be thI onged with guests
for several weeks.
Mrs Blount and her sister, Miss Mig
non Conner, nave only recently returned
from Savannah, where they were MEM
bers of Mr.. DeLoachs house party at MS
country place by the sea
Miss Louise Gambrill, who is member
of the Conner house party, is student
at the woman's College in Baltimore and
is, therefore, a schoolmate of Miss Gull
loms They both belong to the same fra
ternity of which Miss Conner, Miss Carrie
Sharpe and Miss Nancy Johnston were
members at the Womans College. Miss
Gambrill is a very charming girl and
very popular and her visit recalls that
of two other charming girls in the Balti-
more set, Miss DeBow and Miss Hem
dirk, who came down to spend the Christ
mas holidays with Miss Cullom and Miss
Johnston, and who were also schoolmates
of Miss Conner and Miss Sharpe.

in America has ever done greater or
better service for the church and the
Master.
Rev. B. ]. Boulding, who is serving
his third year as pastor Of the John
Wesley Zion Church, is gaining
strength steadily as a candidate for
editor of the Star of Zion. His
thoughtful work as editor and man.
ager of the VGUicE Christian ERdedr-
orer is winning many friends. DR..
Boulding was accorded the honor of
preaching the educational sermon at
the recent Harrisburg conference. Rev.
w. II. SnOwden. now in his fourth
year at Metropolitan Zion Church,
Washington, D. c., expects to show
up strong in 1904 as a candidate for
business manager of the publication
department of the connection.
Rt. Rev. William B. Derrick. of New
York. Bishop of the First Episcopal
District of the church, has gone 10
London. England. accompanied by the
Rev. T. A Smythe, of Harrisburg.
Bishop Derrick at the urgent sOlicita-
tion of Dean Barnabas, has consented
to preach at the three hundred and
.fifty-secOnd anniversary of the Church
of the Catacombs. Canterbury Cathed-
raj. for which purpose he especially
goes. That Bishop Derrick should
have been selected from among the
four hundred delegates to the Canter-
bury meeting. TO preach so important
a sermon. goes far to indicate a
brighter day for the races of darker
hue.
