 MeetinE,


 Jacksonville. Oct. 2s.-(special.>-- The fourth quarterly meeting of the Methodist Episcopal Church, held at White Plains recently, not only dls- closed a gratifying progress along moral and spiritual lines, but along material lines as wnIl. tt.
 Rev. John W. Newman, P. E., was chairman of the conference and c. E. Bordurant was secretary.
 Reports were submitted by Rev. Fl |. W. Hickey, pastor of the two churches, Sunday schools. Epworth Leagues, Wo- mons societies. and the board of trus- ices and they indicate a phenomenal growth in finances, members and gem eral interest of the church.
 A pleasant feature was the excellent dinner on the grounds given by the ladies of the White Plains Church. and the presence of Rev. Thomas Carr, an honored .superannuated minister of the North Alabama Conference, who was horn and reared at White Plains.
 The most important work of the Conference was the adoption of a res- olution looking to a separation of the two churches. and the establishment Of station at Jacksonville. The res- nlution was presented by Hon. John D. Hammond. after touching address disclosing. the absolute necessity for the change In view or the SroWth or Jacksonville and the necessity of a station at that place. 'H
 White Plains and Jacksonville have been associated over twenty years and the bonds are strong which have kept them together; but for the good : of the cause. the sacrifice was made. and after discussion by official members from both churches the resolution was adopted unanimously. z, z s,, f Piedmont will likely be made a sta tion also. and White Plains and two other Chocolocco valley churches wIll constitute a circuit. the minister Fesid-' dng at White Plains.
