Pastors Conference.

Kichord I. Manning, chairman of
the state advisory committee of the
Interchurch World Movement in this
State, has sent circular letter
to the pastors of all evangelical prot
estant churches in the state calling
for a conference of pastors to be held
on March 8 to 5.
THE immediate cause of the call, {"
reads the letter in part, ''is the feel
ing of an imperative duty to bring
every church, through it's pastor, the
knowledge of the religious needs of
the world as revealed by the compile
tion of the first stage of the world,
national, state and county surveys in
itiated by the Interchurch World
Movement. The South Carolina
county survey has unfolded crying
needs which will be presented We
who have so we'll learned the lesson
Of effective cooperation, in the recent
world war, may with wisdom apply
that lesson in our battle to establish
the kingdom of Jesus Christ on
earth"

BOND PROBLEM
BEFORE VOTERS
TONIGHT 8 P. N.

From the interest shown about the
city this morning a large public turn
out is expected at the joint meeting of
the directors of the Ell Centro Cham
Der of Commerce and the city trstees,
to be held in the bsresnent Of the
Barbara Worth hotel this evening,
starting promptly at 500 o'clock.
No program has been made up for
the evening but everybody is expected
to take an active part in the meeting
and successful meeting is hoped for.
The acute shortage of water last year
has made the city officials, Chamber
of Commerce and the city engineers
realize that something must be done
at once so that a recurrence will be
impossible.
The reason for the meeting tonight
as it has been explained before is
purely advisory, suggesting plans that
will be of aid to the city trustees and
the engineers, and prepare the people
for a bond issue. to be put on the
ballot at the April election. The plans
that were drawn last year but failed
to materialize, will again be tried, the
figures will be greatly increased no
doubt, owing to the increase in the
price of materials. But they will
serve as an aid and show a possible
estimate as to the amount which will
be needed.
