The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1919-12-08
tBy Rev. d. b. Sweat, in Tampa
= Tribune)

tBy Rev. d. b. Sweat, in Tampa
Tribune)
Lakeland is to have the distin.
guished honor of entertaining the
Florida annual conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
Dec. 10 to Is, and active preparations
are being made by the pastor, Rev.
L. D. Lowe, and his local committees.
Homes have been opened in the city
of lakes to these ministers and lay
men, who come from all sections of
the state for this important gathering
1t is a rather peculiar and unusual
coincidence that the conference of
this year is held in the same county
where the body met year ago. This
time last year Barlow was preparing
to entertain this body of preachers.
Viewed from any angle you please
to take it, the story of the Florida
conference makes wonderfully inter
esting reading.
Conferenc Organized in 1845
This important body was organized
in the year 1S45, under the leadership
of that great man, Bishop Soule, com
posed mainly Of preachers from the
Georgia conference and for more
than three-quarters of a century it
has gone forward in its God-given
task Of spreading scriptural holiness"
over the sands Of Florida.
The first session of the conference
was held in Tallahassee, away up in
the old red hills of Leon, and when
the appointments were made by Bish-
op Soule at the close of the session
little band of pioneers moved away
from Florida's capital city with un-
daunted faith in the great head of
the church, and determination to
carry on" in the work of the Master.
There was but a handful of these
pioneer workers in those early days
of our Florida Methodism, but they
started out in all directions blazing
the way for those who were to fol-
low in their footsteps. They were in
deed heroic band of pathfinders.
For number of years in the early
days of our Floria Methodism a por
! tion of Georgia was within the bounds
of this conference. The conference
embraced al middle and east Florida
and that part of Georgia south If
Fort Gaines, Albany and the Atama-
ha river.
Several sessions of the conference

SOME INTERESTING HISTORY

were held in Georgia. The fourth
session was held in Waynesville,
February, 1S43, Bishop J. O. Andrew,
presiding. The session Of 1S49 was
held in Albany. The seventh ses-
sion was held in Thomasvile, the
twelfth session in cambridge and
the fifteenth and twentieth sessions
met in Townsville.
1t is interesting to note the differ
ent places that have entertained the
conference during the past seventy
five years. Tallahassee has enter
tanned the conference eight times;
Jacksonville, six; Monticello, nine;
Tampa, six; Qincy, six; Madison,
four; Gainesville, five; Orlando,
three; Ocala, four; Barlow, three;
Palatka, two; Miami, two; Lake City,
three; Micanopy, one; Fernandina,
one; Live Oak, two; Leesburg, one.
This will be the second time the
city of Lakeland has entertained the
Florida conference. 1t met here in
1909, with Bishop James Atkins pre-
siding.
It will be observed that this SEES
sion will make about twenty times
the Florida annual conference has
met in south Florida. OF late years
more Of the sessions have been held
in the southern part of the state
than in the middle and northern sec
tions.
Two Conferences in One Year
BY reference to the year book Of
the conference it is found that sew.
eral sessions of the conference were
held in the same year. The ninth
session of the conference was held at
Quincy in January, 1858, and the
tenth session was held at Monticello
in December in the same year. The
same thing occurred in 1896, when
the conference met at Jacksonville
and at Lake City in December Again
the records show the conference OF
1874 meeting in Jacksonville in Jan,
uary and in Live Oak in December
In 1877 two sessions were held in the
same year, the places Of meeting be-
ing Monticello in January and Tampa
in December. Two sessions were
held in the same year again in 1895
when Jacksonville entertained the
conference in January and Orlando
in December.
Since 1895 the conferences have
! been held in December, the dates

MASQUERADERS OUT
 IN SNAPPY COSTUME
Shuttle Meadow Club Stages
 Elaborate Dancing Party

One of the biggest social successes of the season was held last evening at the Shuttle Meadow club when Mrs. Dody's regular dancing class had it's final meeting in the form of mas querade party. Each member was privileged to invite a guest, making about 50 couples present.
 The costumes were elaborate, com prising every group from the Dutch boy to the Hawaiian girl. The grand march, which started at 9:3O o'clock, ended in a circle and the judges, MT. and Mrs. Alex Stanley, Judge and Mrs. William C. Hungerford, Mrs. Florence Hope of New York and Norman Cooley awarded the prizes. Mrs. Dody was given the award for the most beauti- full. Her costume was a magnificent Egyptian affair of green sa tin and gold cloth with @ most unusual head dress. The next prize, for the cleverest, was awarded to Mrs. Howard Parsons and Mrs. William Rowlands, who repre- scented Christmas trees. Their disguise was complete as they were entirely covered with green with all the Christ mas ornaments, such as pop corn, cranberries and Christmas packages. A prize given for the "peppiest' was cap- tured by Mrs. William T. Sloper, who represented a girl from the "FoIlies." Her costume was burnt orange trim med with black and gold and she car ried an elaborate burnt orange ostrich fan. The prize for the most unique was given to Mrs. Rattenbury. She came as an Hawaiian and with one of the most complete costumes, and she also had most unusual head dress.
 There was every sort of novelty I nation dance and German. The prize for the elimination dace was awarded to Maurice Pea.se and his partner. The cleverest dancer was adjudged to be Clarence Bennett with his partner. The master of cerem onies was Howard Platt, who kept the ball rolling and was responsible for much of the mer- riment. .. -. ..-.... ......,..
 The hall was beautifully decorated. The walls of the main reception room were in black and yellow and in the dining room pink and white. The lights were cleverly covered, giving a subdued glow suitable for the weird dress. The reception hall was ar ranged in the form of a cosy lounging room where the guests were seated to watch the dancers. *ee ~sA Il.
 At 12:30 a. m. all were invited into the dining room where supper was served, during which a toast was given to Howard Platt, the originator of the dancing class. Confetti and paper streamers were distributed. Music was furnished by Dams orchestra from New Haven.
 Mrs. Dody is leaving soon for Bel laire, Fla, where she is to conduct a winter dancing school. During her stay here she acquired a wide circle of friends and her dancing classes were very popular. She plans to re- open her classes at the Griswold, New London, next summer.

 Charge Murder.
 Chicopee, Mass, Dec. 30.--Five men brought here last night from New Haven, where they had been arrested charged with making wood alcohol ''whiskey' were arraigned in police court today charged with murder. All five pleaded not guilty and they were held without bail for a hearing Jan uary 3.
 The men are Frank Suiello, alias Lucibello; John Pinto, alias Suiello; Dominick Perrotti Harry Vincent and Wm. Guangi, all of New Haven.
 All are charged with the murder of Michael Bednarz, from whom the police obtained an ante-m -mortem state ment which they believe is strong enough to secure convictions. After arraignment the men were removed to the county jail in Springfield. Coun- sel for the prisoners asked for an
