Fourth Quarterly Conference
At High Street Nj. E. Church

The fourth quarterly conference Of
the Highland avenue Methodist
Episcopal church was held in the
vestry Monday evening. Rev. David
=. Holt, d. d., superintendent of the
Augusta district preached from John
Mo. Il am come that they might
have life and that they might have
it more abundantly." The discourse
was a cogent presentation of facts
and arguments showing the influence
Of Christianity on human life. DR..
Holt maintains that a churchless
community is always on the down
grade. Even Russia. after driving
out the Greek Catholic and exScu-
ting a leading priest, now feels the
need of organizing a church and has
actually solicited the help Of Me-
thodist church in Europe in carry
ing out its purpose. The speaker
stated there had been nine attempts
in America to establish churchless
communities all Of which had proved
failures. DR.. Holt was a delegate
to the Methodist General Conference
of 1912 and was much impressed
by the addresses Of four Chinese
delegates and their conviction that
the indications looking to Repub-
lican form of government in China
were due in no small measure to
the preaching Of Christian mission
Aries.
At the close of the sermon, the
pastors report for the year was
called for and showed that 70 had
