Goldsboro, Dec. 12.-"I am very
much interested in the material ad-
vancement of this conference, but
am more profoundly concerned as to
the spiritual growth Of our people, .
declared Bishop Darling yesterday as
the presiding elders were making
their reports and were stressing the
achievements in the material pro-
gress the church had made during the
year. "If you get the spiritual life
of our people right, the other will
follow" he said.
Rev. A. d. Belts the oldest mem
, Der, and possibly the greatest loved
member of the conference, who had
not missed a roll call at the opening
of conference for more than half
century, was absent from conference
! this morning. Rev. A. d. Wilcox
stated that this old soldier of the
cross arrived last night, but fell and
sustained some injuries which neces-
STATED his return home and that he
sent his love to the brethren.
The opening session Of the S2nd
session of the North Carolina con-
ference was taken up largely in the
organization and the election Of
boards and committees.
The Bishop, assisted by Revs. NJ.
7. Plyler, w. B. North, d. H. Tuttle
and R. F. Bumpass, administered the
sacrament of the Lords Supper to
the ministers and laymen of the con-
ference, this being the opening relig-
ious services.
Bishop Darlington at $3.50 called
the conference to order and asked
that Rev. r. H. Willis, secretary of
the last conference call the roll. A
large number of ministers and lay
delegates answered to their names
than is usual at the opening session.

retary and he nominated as his as
