BISHOP N. W. WILLIAMS CALLS
MID-WINTER MEETING OF
PRESIDING ELDERS' COUNCIL
At Emmanuel Church, "Charleston.
.The Mld-Wiiater Meeting of the Presiding Elders* Council is hereby
called to convene in EramanucLA. M. E. Church,. Charleston, at one
o'clock, Wednesday, February 2d, at which time each presiding elder
is requested to report his special Allen Celebration Money, in keeping
with..the request we made by letter to each presiding elder some time
past.
I we wui not bold the mid-winter meeting of the Trustees Board this
year in order to save the exper.se of travel etc., so that only the presiding
elders ate.-requested to- be- at the meeting on the 26lh.
I The regular meeting of the Trustees Board of Allen University will
be held at Allen University, Wednesday, April 29, at eleven o'clock
a. m. at which time each presiding elder is expected to report his
Spring Rally Money for Allen .University,
This is because of the fact that there will be oiily a week between
the close of the General Conference and the Commencement which will
. not afford time enough for the presiding elders to collect the Spring
Rallg Money, as all of the presiding elders are member^ of the Gener&
al Conference. This is in keeping with your custom for more than
J twenty years, I am informed, and therefore no innovation. Also the bal9
ance contingent on the General Conference is expected to be repotted
3 by the presiding elders at the meeting April 29.
With every good wish^for the Presiding Elders, Pastors, Officers and
members of all of our churches in South Carolina, I beg to remain,.
t Faithfully yours,'
NOAH W. WILLIAMS, ? ;

Notes From Palmetto State Teachers' Asso'n.
: : ? ' -
__ _The approaching convention promises to be a history-msRfhg oheT
The guest speaker for the association, Dr. Isaac Fisher, is a scholar,
writer, and orator with a national reputation. His message will be to
all the people of South Carolina. The association, in bringing Dr.
Fisher to South Carolina, is living up to it??past record.
Miss Rebecca Davis, who will be with the rural teachers, is a national
figure in rural school work. So outstanding has she been that
she was sent to Africa as a Jeanes teacher. No rural teacher in
South Carolina can afford to miss the message Miss Davis will bring
to the group.
Miss Pearlie Reid is an authority on nursery schooK and primary
school work. She will be with the teachers of the primary, group. It
is significant that this outstanding tea'cher on the faculty of Spellman
College and Atlanta University claims Florence, S. C., as her homer Miss
Charity Mance, whose reputation 3s a teacher-trainer is w?l
known to the teachers of South Carolina, has accepted the invitation
to come to nnv oaon^iofiAn nf i ! -L - ' * - '

on one of two General Education Board Fellowsffl^s given to Ne

Mr. Buckner, who has so successfully taught science in the high
- schools at Georgetown and Florence, and Miss Davis, who will be with
the rural groups, were both invited by the General Education Board t<
work with a committee of twenty-six teachers from thirteen states on

Allendale,* S. C., Peb. 12th?
Rev. S. J. Rice, who had been ill j
for some time, passed away1 on |.
Sunday evening, February 2nd at 1
his home. The late Rev. Rice^son
Louvenia Daniels Rice, was born
more than fifty years ago in Bamberg
county.. He was .reared in
a Christian environment and soon
confessed a saving knowledge of
Jesus Christ. He was then given
full membership at Union Baptist
Church. 7
Life's achievements.
His active beginning as a minister
came when he was licensed
to nreaeh liv his rhnrph n?wl u-ilK
the hope of fitting himself to fulfill
the duties of this sUcred office
he entered ischofiold Institute at
Aiken, S.-C. At the completion,
cf tin preset ibialcours? of that
institution, he registered" in tno
School of Religion at Benedict
College, Columbia, Sr-C. ---Upon
graduation, he was awarded the "
Bachelor of Divinity. Feeling-the
need of further preparation he altered
Gammon Theological Stnii- '
nary, Atlanta, Ga. and was awarded
the degree of Bachelor of Di
vinity from that institution. In

In reviewing the work of "this '
pioneer in the field of < he ministry,
we pause to note some of his
achievement* LU, Utuh tlll'ee brick
churches; JIappy Home, Allendale,
where he served for 28
years; Mt. Calvary, U Imers where
he served for 27 years; Tab.rnacle,
Blackville, and either rebuilt
or remodelled every church h.
has ever served. The following include
some of the churches -h.
has served as pastor: Mt. Zion,
Lees; Union. .Bamberir? x?wo?v<t
Baptist, Barnwell; Jerusalem, at
Hartsville; Ronve, Denmark; Second
Mt. Olive, Kline; Second Calvary,
near Allendale.
In the field .of education, Rev.
Rice built the Mavedct ia I'.ul . s.trial
school at Blaekvillc and serv
ed as principal there for 12 years.
He was principal of the Bethlehem
High school, Barnwell at the
lime of his death. No sacrifice
even of his physical strength was
"coo great for him to make. These
many sacrifices can never be forgotten.
May these boys and giri
serve as a perpetual monument
;o his name and fame and a-<Jou
sent blessing to the race.
He Was especially mindful of
the fatherless and motlnrhss
children and of aged people.. Hi.
home was always, open to them.

The Anni^al Student Mission
Conference of the Studunt V'vluni:

First Presbyterian Church in

1936.
The theme of this mooting was
"Fulfilling: For Our Generation
the World Mission of .Jesus
Christ." , ?r- - ' ?
he x>tgani za ti o n is a student ~
fellowship working: in colleges,
universities and in professional
schools. It is distinctively missionary
being founded on the-conviction
that the Gosj>^ of Jesus.
Christ is Cod's ansuTf to the
world's greatest need and shouki
bo made known to all men every
where. Its special concern is the
growth of the church in. lands other
than Canada and the United
States. It is also an interracial
and interdenominational meeting.
Students from different churches
Igarn under its auspices to work
tdfeethcr- and thus acquire that
spirit of. inter-church cooperation
Which is increasingly necessat \
on the mission-field.
Tnis organization conserves tie
missionary interest which some
students bring to colli ge. It provides
oppoi t unities for Student
Volunteers to share their missionary
interest and knowledge with., _
fellow students. It 'H-fts horizons
and emphasizes the value of a
purpose. .. - r
