Six Auxiliaries (Bennottsvillo, Ebenezer, MoColl, Charlotte Taylor, Marion and Pino Grove) give even $100 cooli. Two Beauty Spot and Hebron, gave ovur $96 each. Surely this financial progresa means an inciense in interest and zeal. Some of those churches only a low years ago thought they ought to bo "patted on the back, as it wero a few yoara ago, if they raised $150. Tho delegation, which was unusually largo, was royally welcomed and outer' taincd at Mullins- Neither Mrs. Wight man nor Mrs Humbert were there bc> cause of BioknoPfl -this wa? wincorcly re gretted, bul sweet Mrs. Wait presided.

S., has been inexistence in South Carolina for 27 years- Tho lir-t year there were about 200 members and and about $300 contributed. Thin year there are 6000 members in the State and $10,000 contributed. Over 12000 Metho dist wouicn in tho Stato yet take no purl. UVuy ? Our Disttriot Secretary'H plea for moro workers was truly inspiring. The Mullins moating seemed to the dele gates to bc, in several respects, (he most delightful one ever held. Thc delegates greatly appreciate tho continued kindness and co-operation ol' tho pastor, tho hos pitality and loving attentions of thc Mul lins people-the enthusiasm which pen vaded tho entire services.
