had been generally understood
among the ministers that there would
be few changes among the pastorates
Ia the Maryland Annual Conference
Jf the Methodist Protestant Church,
which today closed its eighty-fifth an
nual session the slate was material
~ changed. and after the appoint
ments were read by President Bow
crs. it was observed that there we're
just 45 changes In the plan of ap-
pOintmcnts. This came as a surprise
to many of the ministers. Only one
change occurred in Baltimore, and
that at Hampden. the present pastor,
Rev. G. r. NOwlin. going 10 Elizabeth,
\. j.. and Rev. e. ID. Stone. the pre-
sent pastor at Georgetown d. c., sue
cecding him.
As was indicated there is a general
shake up in the three largest
churches in Washington, Rev. h. A.
SoXsmith. Of Pocomoke City, and Rev.
n o. Gibson, of North Carolina Ave-
nue., Washington, exchanging places.
Rev. Frank 4. Benson, of Rhode Is
land Avenue Washington, and Rev.
Louis Randall of Crisdeld, exchange
places. Rev ]. w. Balderson, OF

Stone az Congress Street, Georgetown
d. c. Rev. Thomas r. Woodford, who
recently resigned as agent of the
Methodist Protestant Book Concern,
In Baltimore. TO enter the active
ministry, goes to Fawn Grove charge.
North Baltimore was slated for a
change. but some pressure upon the
president by a delegation from that
charge resulted In Rev. Thomas o.
Grouse being returned.
Rev j. G. Poston, a former pres-
dent Of the Virginia Conference, pre-
scented his transfer papers. and they
were accepted. TWO students from
the Theological Seminary made APP
plication and were admitted. They
are Rev Charles c. Day and Rev.
Wilbur NJ snyder
Rev b. W. Kindley was loaned TO
the Maryland Sunday School Assoc
citation for another year, and Rev. A.
