selecting the place of meeting
was decided on says the Palmy-
ra Spectator. Instead of graf
uitously entertaining the dele.
gates. the organization will pay
a certain amount for board, but
it is understood that the money
thus obtained will be given to
the church which entertaius the
body. Palmyra will get the
conference next year, and in
consideration of doing the en-
tertalning the church here will
receive from the conference fund
the sum of $500, which will be
used in building a new Sunday
school room. The conference
will be held about the first of
September, aud there will be
several hundred delegates here
for a week. The members of
the church and the citizens at
large will be asked to entertain
the visiting members as usual
without pay, the only difference
being that at the close of the
session the church will receive
$500.
