BALTIMORE gets
M. P. CONFERENCE

BALTIMORE, Md, Dec. 2s>--At
meeting Of the standing district com
mittee Of the Maryland Annual Confer
encc or the Methodist Protestant
Church, held yesterday afternoon in the
Methodist Protestant Bookroom, on
Norrh Charles street, Lowe Memorial
Church. William and Clement streets,
in South Baltimore. was selected as the
meeting place for the next Conference
session in April.
This action on the part OF the com
mittee, OF which the Rev. DR.. Frank It.
Little, pastor OF Allnut Memorial
Church, Is chairman, will come as no
great surprise, as II was generally
thought that the Conference would be
again held In this city, although there
were many who believed it would be
held in ST. Luke's Church, Philadelphia.
The Invitation 10 meet in Lowe Me-
mortal Church was formally extended
some time ago by the Rev. William A.
Melvin, It's pastor, who made the offer
so attractive and flatterlng that the
committee, after looking into several
other invitations, decided to accept the
local church.
At the close OF the last session OF
he Conference. which was held in the
Broadway Church, at Broadway and
Monument street. II was found that
there was no invitation on the table for
The meeting place In 1919, and accord

committee 10 determine upon a place.
Or. Little stated last night that. while
here were other places under consider
ion by the members OF the commit
tee, II was thought that on account OF
he central location OF Baltimore and
The fact that the church was easily
cached, the South Baltimore church
was the logical place at this time in
stead OF taking II TO another city or to
a more remote section OF the State.
Besides Chairman Little, the standing
district committee is composed OF the
following clergymen and laymen: The
Rev. DR.. Walter n. Graham, the Rev.
Or. ]. NJ. Sheridan, the Rev. Or. Luther
f. Warner, president OF the Conference,
and three laymen, William G. Baker,
Thomas A. Murray and T. Pllnney

JOHN F. M0RIAR|TY
CORPORAL IN FRANCE
SUCCUMBS TO WOUNDS
Son of Mr.. and Mrs. Michael MOriarity
Of Emmett Third WATERFOWL
Boy To Give Up Life
Overseas.

Corporal John F. Moriarity, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Michael Moriarity of
Emmett, died on September 20 of
wounds received in action. He was
a corporal in Co. B, 47th Infantry,
Fourth division, and went across to
France on May 6. The announcement
OF his death was conveyed to his home
in telegram from the war depart
ment Monday evening.
One year ago Corporal Moriarity
left his home in route / for Camp
Grant and in the spring was trans
ferred to Camp Greene, N. c., where
he remained until ne went overseas.
He was born in the town of Emmett
February II, 1896, and was a graduate
of the Watertown high school, class
of 1915. He passed the whole of his
life on the farm where he was born.
Besides his parents, one brother Jo-
seph and one sister Mary, survive him.
His death will be learned here with
sorrow as he was a young man greatly
liked by all who knew him. He has
rendered the supreme sacrifice in the
cause dear to all which should miti-
gate the sorrow of the loved ones left
behind. Corporal Moriarity was the
third Watertown boy to give up his
life in the great cause of freedom and
democracy.
