When Bishop Mouxon calls the body to order on Wednesday morning, Oct. 27, at 9:00 o'clock, it will mark the first time that he has ever presided over the Upper South Carolina con ference. Bishop Mouxon was appoint ed in charge of Methodist interests ih the Carolines at the quadrennial ses sion of the general conference of the Church at Memphis, Tenn., last May and has established his episcopal resi dence in Charlotte, N. C. During the previous Methodist quadrennium Bish op Mouxon was in charge of the three conferences in Tennessee, the Holston, the Memphis and the Tennessee. In addition to Bishop Mouxon, the president, other officers of the con ference are: Rev. B. Rhett Turnip- seed, Greenwood, secretary; and Rev. W. B. Garrett, Columbia, statistical secretary. The approaching session of the Up per South Carolina conference will be of more than usual interest since it marks the beginning of a Methodist quadrennium. It is the first session since the meeting of the general con ference in Memphis in May when im portant legislation was enacted af fecting practically all the boards and agencies - of the Methodist Church, South. Official visitors representing the va rious church boards namely, the Ep- worth League, education, Sunday school, missions, lay activities, church extension and hospital boards and the publishing interests of the denomina tion with headquarters at Nashville, Tenn., Louisville, Ky., and Atlanta, Ga., will explain the purpose of the recent legislation to the conference body. Dr. J. Marvin Culbreth will repre sent the board of education. It is ex pected that arrangements will he made during the session for looking after the collection of Christian education pledges in this the closing year of the movement. Dr. J. C. Roper of Ches ter, conference secretary of education, will be in charge of the special col lection campaign to be put on during the months of November and Decem ber, in accordance with recent general conference legislation. The collection of unpaid Christian education pledges has been turned over to local institu tions of learning, following the gen eral conference rulings, and all money paid on these pledges will be applied on the building and endowment funds of local schools with the exception of twelve per cent of the gross receipts to be sent to general education head quarters at Nashville, Tenn., for con- nectional schools. Schools and colleges of the Upper South Carolina conference that will be beneficiaries of the Christian educa tion movement are: Wofford College, Spartanburg; Columbia College, Co lumbia; Lander College, Greenwood, end Carlisle school, Bamberg. Of the $470,000 subscribed by the Upper South Carolina conference to ward the Christian education fund, $130,000 has been paid to date. Other representatives of church boards who will attend the conference sessions are: Dr. O. E. Goddard, hoard of missions; Dr. J. W. Shack- ford, Sunday school board; Rev. J. E. Crawford, lay activities. Tuesday, October 26 will be charac terised by pre-ccnference meetings of the various boards and committees. The opening sermon will be preached on Tuesday evening at 7:30 o'clock. On Tuesday afternoon Bishop Mou xon and his cabinet will be in official session. The bishop’s cabinet is com posed of the presiding elders of the Upper South Carolina conference as follows: The Revs. P. F. Kilgo, An derson district; A. N. Brunson, Green- \ille district; T. W. Munnerly, Rock Hill district; R. F. Morris, Spartan burg district; and J. R. T. Major, Cokesbury district. During the conference session a [special memorial service will be held in honor of the life and. work of the Rev. E. S. Jones, former presiding el der of the Columbia district, whose death occurred on September 30, as a result of an auto accident while en route to Spartanburg to attend a pre conference meeting of the board oi 'fissions. Sunday. October 10, was designated throughout the Columbia district as Jones Memorial day, and practically every church in the dis trict hold services in memory of the ted kadef. The conference will hear nomina tions on the various quadrennial con ference boards and committees and will elect the personnel of these hoards and committees as follows: Missions, Sunday school, education, Christian literature, Epworth League, finance, church extension, hospital, lay activities, budget, and temperance and social service. \ Leaders who have served as chair men of conference boards and commit tees during the past quadrennium and who will report on the status of Meth odist interests in the territory cover ed by the Upper South Carolina con ference are: Rev. P. F. Kilgo, Ander son. missions; Rev. F. E. Dibble, | Greenwood, Sunday school; Rev. A. L. | Gunter, Columbia, Epworth League; | Rev. J. R. T. Major, Greenwood, edu- ! cation; Rev. J. W. Kilgo, Lancaster, ichurch extension; Rev. W. M. Owings, [Johnston, finance; Rev. C. C. Herbert, Spartanburg, budget; Rev. M. L. Car lisle, Spartanburg, Christian litera ture; Rev. G. F. Clarkson, William son, temperance 7 and social service; Rev. N. G. Ballenger, Belton, Bible; and Rev. A. N. Brunson, Greenville, hospital. • Much interest centers around the appointment of preachers for the su 02 year. The appointments will probably be read on Monday, Nov. 1. Under the Methodist itinerant system a preacher is appointed for only nag year at a time, the appointing power resting 4n the hands of the presiding elder and his cabinet. Four years is usually the maximum term for contin uous service in one place, although the four year limit is no longer abso lute in regard to the pastorate, accord ing to a ruling of the general confer ence of 1922. Parents of Daughter Mr. and Mrs. J. Harold Flanagan of Hendersonville, are receiving the con gratulations of friends upon the ar rival of a daughter on Oct. 16th. The little girl has been named Betty Jean. Mr. Flanagan until recently waa con nected with The Chronicle Publishing Company of this city. Mrs. Flanagan was formerly Miss Florie McGill. • ’.m 1 ^ The United Stated Supreme Court states “Good WHl is the disposition of the custom er to return to the place where he has been well treated.’’ That is the foundation on which we are building our “Good WOT—well-treated customers. - Greenville Belting Co.
