South Carolina maintains a forward look in the celebration of the i: Eighty-first Anniversary of Senior Bishop J. S. Flipper, D.D., LL.

Thus far, the following Bishops consented to asso cinte with their Senior Bishop , iir this meritorious and gala-banquet .Bishop, Wm. A. Fountain; Bishop " iMohrbe H.

The toastmaster will interestingly entertain the large audi'nee with music by Allen uni ve-sity famous quartets, etc. Bishop Flipper will ever be rerrien bered by the way and manner in which he organized, the late general conference in Detroit. H:u discussions, opinions and rulings plus the Ordination SermCn After thirty-two years a presiding birhop he now has few equals am) no superiors and we are mindful of all the great bishops of the A. M. E. church from Allen tn Allen. The great A. M. E. church rnajprs in the election of bishops she is usually one hundred per cent. We are elated over the present bench. This great char Acter whom we honor, is a schol ar, a preacher plus experience. He may be called a commonei when he gets through writing his appointments on Thursday nites of his annual conferences, then he moves his Episcopal Rooms to the front porch and in the yard where he enjoys chatting with whoso ever will. It's unthinkable how he laves the lay-members of the church._ Derpite the fact that South Ca rolina owns the best Episcopal furnished manse in the connec nyn, ne reiusea to ever move irom i Georia. He says he wants to livo. and die in Georgia, and the res surrection morning he wants to go through the gate on the south pa renthetically if there is no "Geor Rria Gate". We believe as Senior Bishop thi gient A.. M. E. church ought in V ?ome -way best known to the Bishops' Council honor him in a big way?I so m'ove. Quite a number of the bishop's admirers express themselves a? desiring fo send congratulatory telegrams, etc. The same may be Sent to Allen university, Presi dent S. R. Higgins, Chr.. J.
