PRESIDING ELDER
Methodist Church South Names
Successor to Rev. ]. w.
Shoaff

The closing day Of the forty-first an
nuaI conference of the Methodist
church south of Southern California
and Arizona was full of activity yes
terday at the Trinity church, complet-
ing the work of one OF the most sue
cessful sessions ever held by that body.
At the morning session the confer
ence unanimously adopted the report
of the committee on temperance and
Sabbath observance, which regretted
what was termed the prevailing Sab
bath dissertation.
Bishop r. G. Waterhouse, the pre-
siding bishop, expressed his pleasure
over the conference, saying that the
sessions had been harmonious and had
resulted in general satisfaction in all
departments of the church work.
The bishop will be the guest of the
Rev. r. P. Howell, pastor of Trinity
church, a few days to secure a much
needed rest and attend TO his delayed
correspondence.
The report on the Arizona Polytech-
mic college which is to be built in Ari-
iona next year received considerable
prominence in the closing deliberations
yesterday. The California junior col
lege to be built on the Pacific coast
also was discussed. Plans We're made
for the enlargement of the Deaconess'
hospital and deaconess' home. The
committee on publications advocated
more reading of the religious papers
in the homes of church members and
less of the frivolous periodicals.
