labor within the territory of the con-
ference when that body meets in Mount

of the conference, and it is probable
that one or more other members of the
college of bishops of the church in
general will be present as visitors and
make addresses All the business
meetings. however are to be presided
over by Bishop Gambler.
While not regarded as being a gen.
eral moving year" for pastors, those
who keep we'll informed on conference
matters recall that great many
changes were made four years ago. and,
under the itinerancy plan which OBJ
tains in the NJ. Z. Church South, no
presiding elder or pastor can serve one
district Or one congregation longer
than four consecutive years. although
they can return after lapse of several
years. This, however, seldom happens
