messed during those first moments
of the conference. In the pulpit stood
the senior bishop of the Methodist
church. Grand old man he certainly
is. Just to look at his splendid face.
his beamfng yet dignified countenance
and to see that genial smile makes
one feel good for a long time after
1t doesn't take long to come to the
conclusion that Bishop Warren is a
great man. a good man and an elo-
quent man Just at $3.50 O'Clock
scores of ministers and delegates fill
ed into the church and found seats
and a great many citizens added to
the size of the audience. Bishop War
ren announced one of the grand OLD
Methodist hymns and soon the church
was ringing with the sound of
the voices of that multitude of min
listers. What is richer pleasure
than to listen to a great body of well
trained male voices singing an old
