Gaining Ground.

Interest in religion has deep
ened the past few weeks. States
men talk on religious subjects In
the church pulpits. People come
in great numbers to learn little
more about what the church has
been driving at.
Men who do not attend church
regularly are becoming con-
WINGED that what all other learn
inn failed to do. Christianity has
suddenly accomplished. and in a
practical way. No mani made
laws would have forced people
to be influenced by the general
wave Of sentiment for peace SO
prevalent today. 1t was only
when mems thoughts turned
from the past toward the peace
offers of the last few days that
they caught glimpses of Chris
ianity in working form So the
teachings of Christ have gained
ground. Never having given in
to any influence beneath its
principles: the church knows no
retreat To hold what has been
gained is the next important
duty. Christianity has brought

the vision, the misinterpretation,

Sitting on the Judgment seat,
Festus commanded Paul to be

laid many and gricvous COM

Then Festus. when he had

unto Cesar? unto Cesar shalt
thou go.
And after certain days King
Agrippa and Bernice came
unto Cesarea to salute Festus.
And when they had been
there many days, Festus de-
clared Paul's cause unto the
king.
Then Agrippa said unto
Festus, ] would also hear the
man myself. Tomorrow, said
he, thou shalt hear him.
And now Paul had appeared
before the Romah king. and
there made a plea which, from

Federal Prisoners Joy
Rides Are Under Ban
Convicts Must Be Taken to the Near
est Prison, Says Attorney General.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Attorney
General Daugherty announced today
that JOY rides for federal prisoners are
to be stopped and along with them
waste of public funds.
Mr.. Daugherty issued instructions to
all federal district attorneys and Unit
ed States marshals that hereafter per-
sons sentenced to federal prisons must
be transported to the one nearest to
the city in which they were convicted.
The practice of taking large squads
of convicts, in special cars across the
country when they could have been
accommodated at a prison at shorter
distance has cost the government hun
dreds of thousands of dollars in travel
costs and other expenses, Mr.. Daugh-
erty said.
A federal Judge has informed Mr..
Daugherty that the new method OF
handling federal prisoners will save
$4,000 in one state alone.

CONFERENCE WILL
SOON MEET AT Triton
SOUTH GEORGIA METHODISTS
ARE MAKING PREPARATIONS
FOR ANNUAL GATHERING.

The Methodists of this section
are looking forward with great deal
of interest to the approaching South
Georgia conference at Triton. The con-
ference will begin November 23rd and
will last several days. Bishop Warren
A. Gambler will preside and it is ex-
pected a number of matters of import
ance will come up.
The Dawson church will meet by
the time conference convenes all OF its
Obligations i'll the way of finances, and
practically all of the churches in the
district will do the same thing.
1t is believed that the local preach
ers will be returned to Dawson, as the
presiding elder, DR.. w. c. Lovett, and
Pastor Reese Griffin are now complet-
ing their first year here.
How Many Delegates?
There is some speculation among
the ministerial members as to just how
many delegates the conference will
elect to the general conference, which
meets at Hot Springs in May of next
year. Just now the number to which
the conference is entitled is seven
clerical and seven lay delegates, but il
is confidently believed when the new
membership role is made up at Triton
there will be eight of each of these
selected. The increase i'll membership
will entitle the conference to the ad-
ditional delegates.
Judge J. A. LANG, of Dawson, is
one of the district lay delegates to the
conference.
Rev. w. H. Budd, pastor Of Tiftor
church, with the various committees
is arranging for the comfort and en-
tertainment of the body OF Methodist;
who will attend the conference.
