child was bitten as it went out and

MINISTERS CONFERENCE,

The Blue Ridge ministers confer
ence met in regular session at Gen.
trail Hotel, Central, S. c., Sept 5,
with twelve pastors present. This |
was our first meeting since June
sixth, as July and August was filled
in with meetings. The twelve pas
tors present were in high spirits for
success had attended their labors for
the past two months. No doubt we
have had the greatest season of re-
vival meetings in several years. The
report of each pastor brought forth
praise and thanksgiving. Gods
church has been in revival for the
last few weeks in this Piedmont sec
ton, praise to God.
The reports are gratifying in
many respects. First, not a single
meeting WAS reported where the
house was capable of housing half
the people. Men came from every
nook and corner Of the country to
hear the preaching. The worst and
the best, the richest and the poorest
al came. A second gratifying fea-
ture Of the reports was the won
darful good preaching. believe
the preachers have showed them
selves approved unto God, workers
that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word Of truth.
From every quarter came the won
derful news that the preachers stood
square against sin. He was the
mouth piece for God. Sin was at
tackled from every angle without
fear or favor. The preacher threw
down the gauntlet and challenged the |
devil for a fight. The gates of hell |
has once more felt the bumb Shell Of ,
the gospel and the sword of the
spirit and the Hndcnburg battle
line Of hell has been broken through |
and the church of the God Of heaven
has advanced, hallelujah, and today
is pressing on as never before to
the capital city of the blest. Thank
God for victory. Let all the people |
praise thee, Oh God; let all the peo-
pie praise thee, for to thee only be-
longcth praise.
The third gratifying feature was
the spirit in which the preacher did
his work. Everyone tried to leave
himself out Of his report. Christ
was cXhaulted in all. Wonderful
spirit. And this no doubt is respon-
Sihlc for the great success. The re-
ports Of the pastors present and
three or four pastors not present. but
sending in their report, all told, rep
rcscnting somewhere in the neigh
borhood of sixty churches in the
bounds of the conference. There
were Sal baptisms besides numbers
who joined by letter. May the Lord
of the harvest continue the rcapng.
