THE A. M. E. GENERAL
CONFERENCE
The meeting of the Quadrennial
General Conference, of f.he A. M
E. Church, which will convene in
Detroit next month is a gathering
in which the- interest of one
twelfth of the Negro population
. is concerned and will have representation.
The General Conference
represents a million communicants,
and millions in church
and school property and its inflii
t-nce goes around the world and
. into..the isles of the sea. In %
Detroit meeting will be ^13 Bishops
and equally as many General
cmiceis; with this group will be
a dozen College Presidents who
.epiesent, not only higher edu
uiwon,?but?peculiarly?the?school
of tuought. which furnishes the
growth and hope of Negro leadin
the American civilization,
.ne most important work of
uie A. M. E. General Conference

General Conference
As Chairman of Publicity, we
have been authorized by Dr. R.E.
Brogdon, head of Transportation
Committee to say that the entire
delegation for Detroit, Mich, to
attend the General Conference of
the?Av MrHih ehtirch^^-Majr firt7 ~
will go by the Southern Railway
Not leas than five hundred loyal
African Methodists from - this
State will in all probability take
advantage of this trip. Aside from
the beautiful sceneries to greet 1
your eyes via of the Southern,
the accommodations will be fit t
for a kiag. The Company is 1
placing Pullman cars and Day i
coaches at our disposal, a diner J
for meals, and a baggage car
for our State's Exposition exhi- a
kli. T>:.1 rt * -
uiui. Dimop j. o. nipper or ?.t- f
lanta, who heads South Carolina, r
or the 7th Episcopal District, will i
come to Columbia in order to ac- 1
company the delegation to Detroit 1
This will be the largest party to ?
attend a General Conference in "
the history of our denomination. <
In traveling by the Southern, the v
delegation has selected the short
est and finest route, and should a
thousand or more go with us they
will never regret it. This is going
to be an epoch making General
Conference. The question us?C
to ownership of "ur General De- a

General Conference. The law o:
13 delegates is to come up J>efori
this "body. Other grave legisla
