NASHVILLE SEEKS
BIC BIBLE NEE I
Atlanta Association Asked to
Extend Conference Work to
Include Tennessee City.

Tine Atlanta Conference association
has been requested to consider extend
ing the Bible conference work to other
cities, and especially to consider holding
Bible conference in Nashville, Tenn,
in 1914 TO accomplish this, Rev. T. H..
Harrison of Nashville, visited Atlanta
Yesterday to confer with DIR. Richard
Orme Finn.
Mr.. Harrison informed Dr.. Finn that
five of the ministers in Nashville are
highly in favor of extending the con-
ference work. Among them are Dr.,
James |. Vance. of the First Presbyte-
rian church; Rev. j. Q. McClurkin. who
has a very large institutional church
and Bible school; Rev l.. \. McNair OF
the Moore Memorial Presbyterian
church; Rev. Carey f. Morg an, of the
Vine Street Christian church and Rev.
]. 5. French, Of the McKendVie church.
He also told Dr. Finn that he had been
assured by \. P. Foster, secretary of
the Industrial Bureau of Nashville, that
that organization will help to finance
this movement. provided Dr.. Broughton
and Morgan could be obtained for a stay
of one week
Dr. Finn informed Rev Harrison
that he would do all he could to aid
him and that in view of the great bene-
fit these conferences have brought to
Atlanta and the South, the Atlanta Con-
ference association would at its next
annual meeting consider the advisable
ity of the extension work.
The conference in Atlanta this year
promises to be one of the strongest ever
held. \ large gathering is expected, as
the list of speakers presents a group of
specialists and religious leaders such as
is seldom possible to obtain. Among
these are DR.. Len G. Broughton and DR..
q. Campbell Morgan, of London; DR.. j.
NJ. Gray, of Chicago: Dr. j. r. Wedder-
spoon, of Washington; Professor J, r.
Sample, of the Baptist Theological sem
mary Louisville. Ky, and DR.. James l.
Vance, of Nashville
The services of DR.. Morgan are in
such demand the world over that it is
tain him 1t is thought that his pres
cnce in Atlanta this year therefore will
attract an unusually large gathering
Mr.. Harrison will return to Nash
vile tonight and will meet with the In
dustrial Bureau on Tuesday. February
II, at which time he will make a re-
port of his interview with DR. Finn.

there will be prompt and generous
response to this appeal.
Attention is called to the following
extracts from the Troy Record set
ting forth the needs of the situation.
White vast amount relief work
has already been accomplished
among the flood sufferers of Troy,
much remains to be done. Hundreds
have been supplied with mattresses,
yet many are obliged to sleep on
water-soaked beds One investigator
found two naked children with no
bed but wet mattress. Several ma
ternity cases have insistent needs.
The supply of mattresses in local
stores has been exhausted and manu-.
factories are working night and day
to supply the demand as soon as
possible. The stock of comfortables
available at short notice is gone.
Still there are people in our city who
lack the barest necessities of life."
Rev. DR.. Newton w. Thompson,
who is in charge of the district from
the Poestenkill south to Main street,
reported 800 families in his district
who had been food-swept Most of
these families are among the very
poor and lost everything which they
possessed, even to furniture, which
was swept away or demolished by
the waters. Many Polish families
are among the number, and the need
for immediate supplies is great"
Mrs. Joseph McQuide, chairman
of the womens relief committee,
stated that the response to the ap-
peal for clothing and bedding had
been prompt and generous, and that
everything given was well adapted to
the needs. Great quantities of shoes
stockings, underwear and wearing
apparel had been distributed, but
very much more is needed, and
needed quickly, to relieve absolute
suffering in many cases, as the cool
ness OF the weather since the food
has been most trying to those in deep
