Group Conference
Methodist Church

y group conference of the Metho-
dist churches in the Augusta district
was held Thursday at the Hammond
street Methodist Episcopal church,
Lewiston. Rev. D. r. Holt, superin-
tendent, presided. At the morning
session, DIR. Atkins discussed the
topic Are our Churches Gaining or
Waning in Spiritual Power?" He felt
that they were gaining Among other
things, he said that the time had
come when the Methodist Episcopal
church must put out doctrinal
church literature to meet the situa-
ton of today.
DR.. A. w. Martin. who has been in
China 16 years, told one of the many
things that was being accomplished
through the centenary program. This
was taking new mission field in
China where no work had been done,
and making the Methodist church di-
rectly responsible for what should be
done there. The district chosen is
about as large as Vermont, in the
largest tea raising section of the
country
DR.. Martin explained just how they
had gone about reaching the natives,
the interest taken in their religious
meetings, and how he and DR.. Char
les who Is working with him, have
finally reached the students in the
four government schools there, so
now there are 100 Christian Chinese
young men ready to go out as teach
ers in the village around there.
From those who have already gone
out come calls for DIR. Martin to visit
them, start Bible study classes, etc.
or course that is impossible now
with only DR.. Charles and DR.. Mar
tin in the field. Twelve schools have
been visited, however, and arrange
ments made for a Bible lesson to be
taught each week. On whether the
centenary movement carries through,
depends d.. Martins going back to
China to this big, difficult work.
At the afternoon session DIR. j. N
Gage of Boston spoke on the matter
of Christian stewardship. DR.. J. A.
Beede. dean of the Boston School of
Theology took UP the subject of the
endowment fund for that school.
Last evening DR.. Gage gave a very
interesting talk on what the Gen.
tenary is accomplishing at home and
abroad, illustrating it with slides. p,

enth monthly event Of its kind to
be sponsored by the local Retail
Merchants association, proved a
decided success. Although the
roads where not oiled were not the
best, yet the fields were too muddy
for. comfortable husking and many
farmers drove to the city for the
day or part of it. The specials
offered in several stores were ex-
hausted before noon but most of
them substituted other seasonable
articles.
Several of the stores reported
an unusually large number of sales
from regular stock as we'll as the
specials and the majority reported
a satisfactory day when the clos

the day were checked up. The u.s.
