To the Right Reverend Bishop and
Members of the Annual Conference:
In bringing my report to this Con-
ference of Church workers. | desire to
express my earnest conviction, that
the hard work of our brothers and
sisters, together with the influence of
their self sacrificing endeavor for the
benefit of needy. dependent, and de
linquent humanity, has been crowned
with most encouraging success. At
times We have been disappointed at
immediate results, but We find that
LATENT waiting together with conf
dence in the All Wise Father. will
reap its deserved reward.
The detail of my work. as far as it
Ielates to our church may be stated
/" a few brief words. | have visited
go homes, some of the visits of my
own will. others at the request of ur
fortunate men and women, who want
cd Christian advise and help. It was
always labor of love and trust the
results are greater than the figure

ing made to organize Juvenile Pro-
