IN connection with the presidency.

All evangelical ministers OF this
county have been invited to join pas
tors of all the Protestant churches Of
Mississippi In a monster conference
which is to be held in Grenada March
$40. and Hattiesburg March 1912.
This is the first time in the history
of the Christian churches of the state
that such gathering has been held,
and great good to the churches is ex-
pected to result from the meeting to-
rether of denominational leaders from
all the various churches.
The conference will be in session
for three days, during this time every
available moment being taken up with
intensive consideration OF church
problems, both as they AFFECT Georgia
and the ,ntire Christian field through
out the world. It win meet at o'clock
of the first day, and remain In session
with conferences morning, afternoon
and evening, until the late afternoon
of the third day
One Of the most vital matters which
will be brought up for consideration
will be the results of the religious sur
vey of the state, which will be present
ed through the medium of graphic
charts, maps and picture slides. AL
though the survey will not be complet-
ed at that time, there will be large
number Of the counties Of the state
ready for exhibition. and these will
form the basis Of consideration.
The results of the surveys are said
to be very startling in their revelation
of church weakness throughout rural
districts. and they will show many op-
portunitiessf for concentrated action on
the part OF the churches in this state.
The Interchurch World Movement, in
making its surveys. simply discovers
the facts which exist, and then refers
the findings to the churches of each
county and state for whatever action
is deemed necessary by the churches.
Present at the meeting will be some
Of the great Christian leaders OF the
South and of the nation Some of the
strongest men in the southern
churches will be in attendance as
speakers. There will also be one OF
more Of the directing heads of the
Interchurch World Movement among
the speakers to speak with authority
on whatever features of the movement
