SUNDAY At CONVENTION.
SESSIONS OF DEVOTIONAL AND
INSTITUTIONAL NATURE.
DIR. Lide breaches at First Raptist
Church in MOrning-Memorial Ser
vices Held.

Greenville, Dec. 1.-THE sessions
of the Baptist State convention to-
day were largely of a devotional and
linspiratiOnal nature. Nearly all the
pulpits of the city were filled by min
listers from the convention, both
morning and evening.
In the auditorium Of the First Bap-
tist church where the exercises of the
convention are being held the con-
Vention sermon was preached at II
O'Clock this morning by the Rev. r.
w. Lide, ID. D., of Darlington, who
took his text from the fifth and 18th
chapters of Mark, the words be-
ing, only believe and Have faith
in God" Special emphasis was placed
upon the efficacy of faith, the minis
ter declaring that there must be faith
in his power, faith in the efficacy of
the atoncment and faith in his final
triumph. A crowded auditorium
heard the sermon.
The afternoon session was of a
memorial nature. The report on
obituaries was read by the Rev. A. c.
wilkins, ID. ID. of Greenville, i'm
which he called attention to the
deaths of ten ministers and Is
deacons who had died during the past
year. Brief sketches of each were
read, after which tributes of respect
were paid different ones by members
of the convention. A number in ad-
dition to those read We're added by
different members of the convention.
At the evening service another
great congregation was crowded into
the large auditorium. The services
were largely inspirational. An ad-
dress on the Judson centennial was
made by the Rev. j. d. Chapman,
ID. d., who is assisting in the raising
Of fund by Southern Baptists of
$1,&5O,OOO as a memorial to the hun
dred years since the landing of
lAdonirum Judson, the Baptist mis-
sionary address was also delivered by
the Rev. j. E. White Of Anderson in
Which he called attention to the real
missionary motive. He declared that
there had been three appeals in the
past-the appeal to help the mission
ary boards in order to escape their
embarrassment, the denominational
appeal and the appeal to intelligence
in which efforts had been made to ac-
quaint the people with the conditions
on mission fields. All these, he said,
had reached their zenith and were
failing and that we must return to
the main missionary motive mani
tested in Ch.ist and the coming of
the Holy Spirit. The exercises were
concluded by a presentation of the
"Hallelujah Chorus from the Mes
siah," by Handel, by the large chorus
choir, assisted by an orchestra, piano
and the large pipe organ, all under
the direction of Prof. Poston, the mu-
sical director of the Greenville Wo-
mans college. 1t was generally de-
clared by those present to have been
a great service.
Tomorrow the convention will de-
/ vote it's time to the consideration of
education, including all the colleges
and institutions Of learning, under
control of the convention
The committee on nominations will
make it's report, and a number Of
meetings Of boards of trustees will be
held.
