Wilmington Conference met in fourth
annual session this morning In Inn
manuel Church Sunday School room,
with representatives Of many
churches in attendance. Thomas n.
Rawlins, OF Seaford, president of the

interesting address in calling the
Lay Conference to order
Mr.. Rawlins traced the history Of
the laymen's organization movement
in the Wilmington Conference, which
resulted in the formation Of the Lay
mems Association four years ago.
There has long been a feeling that
/ the laymen Of our church should be
drawn closer together annually at the
Conference sessions" he added. How
many of us could tell by name, should
we meet him, single layman from
one-half OF the 200 charges in this
, Conference"
He praised the activity Of the lite
Henry s. Goldey Of Wilmington in
taking the initiative to form the
/ Laymen's Association I'VE, as an or

I his sainted memory" said Mr.. Raw
: Inns May we keep it green by our
intelligent activity"
Mr.. Rawlins pointed out that lay
men not only should know the history
and accomplishments Of Methodism
but particularly that OF the Delaware
Methodism the craule Of the church
la this country.
In passing permit me to remark
that ] fear there IS too strong q ten
dency in these modern days to reaC

things we would like TO see out of it.

THE LAST WORD IN MELODY.
This world is full
OF songs that pull
And wrench the human heart,
OF songs as sweet
AS ripping wheat
Where pulsing drift-winds start;
or melodies
That grip and seize
The well-known savage broasC
That furnish dreams
OF mOonlit streams.
And--well you get the rest
This world is filled
With notes that thrilled
Since old Doc Adams day;
or liquid notes
From high-prioed throats
That hold a sirens sway
But at the end
OF music's blend
This gets the final call
When a bloke in blue
Looks up az you
And howls--"P-L-A-Y B-A-L-L!"
