LAID ON THE TABLE

The one hundred and twenty fourth
annual session of the Baltimore an
nual conference of the Methodist Epis
copal Church which has been holding SEES
sions daily for the past week in Hamins
Church adjourned last night with the
reading Of the appointments to the variou:
pastorates by Bishop Earl Cranston
In making the changes in the churche:
this year, said the bishop I'VE have useC
all discretion possible. A few days ago
almost despaired of making satisfactor.
arrangement. We held nine cabinet SEES
sions 1t is the opini~n Of the five pre-
siding elders who have assisted me tha
We have done better than usual The
appointments will please 80 per cent Of
the churches in the conference. There
are only two or three ministers who will
think they will be hurt in reality. We
have asked our Father to direct us and He
does all things for the best. 1t is my only
regret that every man has not been ad-
Vanced and every church satisfied.
i wish to say in closing that l have
never seen a more competent or hard
working cabinet of elders than those who
serve you
