THE METHODIST CONFERENCE
The annual conference Of the Meth
odist Episcopal church, South, ad-
journed yesterday after a session OF
several days at Sumter.
Perhaps the most important work
of the conference was the division OF
the South Carolina conference into
two parts. These are to be known as
the Upper South Carolina and the
South Carolina conferences. The d.
viding line begins at the North Caro-
lima state line and passes between
Lancaster and Chesterfield counties
thence between Fairfield and Kershaw
to the city of Columbia, passing be-
tween the city and Columbia college
near Hyatt Park; thence passing be-
tween Calhoun and Lexington and Al
ken and Barnwell counties to the
Georgia state line, thus dividing the
state into almost two equal parts In
territory and membership, as we'll as
into districts-there being six districts
in each Of the two newly formed con-
ferences. The Upper South Carolina
conference includes all the territory to
the west and north Of the dividing
line. The South Carolina conference
includes all the territory east and
south Of the line Of division.
All Of the educational institutions
including Wofford college and Wof-
ford Fitting school, Columbia college
Lander college, Cokesbury Conference
school, Carlisle Fitting school at Bam-
berg, and the Epworth orphanage at
Columbia, are to be the joint property
| Of the two conferences.
The conference made slight
change in the Yorkville charge, of
which Rev. Henry Stokes Is the pastor
in charge. The. change was brought
about at the request Of officers Of Trim
| ity church in order to give Mr.. Stokes
more time for the development Of the
Yorkville field, which has developed
materially during the past two years
The Yorkville charge will now include
Trinity church, Yorkville, and Olivet
| merly in the local charge, has been
| transferred to the Glover circuit, with
Glover, Kings Mountain chapel and
st. Paul, Of which Mr.. Dibble Is to
have charge.
Rev. Mr.. Stokes has been appointed
member Of the board Of missions of
the Upper South Carolina conference,
and Is to serve as the treasurer OF the
board.
