GRADY SALISBURY DISTRICT METHODIST CONFERENCE Forty-mart Annual Session Held a* Norwood Last Week. By L. W. BARNHARDT The forty-third session of the Salis bury district conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, was held in Norwood July 9-10. Presiding Elder T. F, Marr, D v D., called the conference to order Thursday morning at 9 o’clock. Dr. Marr condaoted the devotional serv ices ; then the organization was perfected. G. G. Adams, pastor of the Norwood circuit, was elected secretary. After the completion of the organization Bish op Collins Denny, of Richmond, Va,, ar rived and. presided through the sessions of both days. A goodly nnmber of the local preachers reported on their work, their characters were passed without ob jection, and their licenses were renewed. During the morning session Bishop •Denny addressed the conference at length on the plan of unification, now before the church for its approval or rejection. The bishop declared in clear and logical terms that he was opposed to the present plan of unification, and soberly discussed in detail his objections to the plan. No doubt the eloquent appeal of the bishop won him some followers, especially . among the laymen of the district. In tha afternoon some of the members of the conference, primarily the good min i isters who held opposite views from i Bishop Denny,, addressed the conference. They enthusiastically declared themselves to be in- favor of unification, but said - little in detail in regard to the present plfjn. Thty were unanimous in tfleir opinion that the present plan’ was fair to the Southern Methodist Church, and further expressed the belief that the un ion of the Northern and Southern branches of Methodism in America would bring, about a glorious day for the ex tension of God’s kingdom here on earth! Among the leading men who took part ■ jp .this forensic array, compared to a “Sophomore debate” by another unifica tlonist, were: L. D. Thompson, N. R. Richardson, R. 0. Eller, C. M. Pickens, W. A. Jenkins, R. A. Swaringen, and Professor C. A. Reap. After the after noon was far spent on motion the con ference agreed to elect delegates to the annual conference the next day at 10 o’clock: then the conference adjourned with the benediction by Biethop Denny. The next day at 10 o’clock the order of the day was taken up. The hundred and ten lay delegates voted for the dis trict’s allotted number of delegates to the annual conference which convenes at Broad Street Church. Statesville, this year. On the first ballot the following men were elected : .T: F. Shinn, W. R. Odell, D. B. Coltrane, J. C. Kesler, C. J. Goodman, J. M. Hartsell, J. R. May nard and A. S. Morgan. One of the veteran delegates in attendance at the sessions of the conference told the writer that in his recollection this was the first time in thirty years that every delegate WB.J eleqjed on .the fitftt ballot. Then the following reserve delegates were elect ed: L. W. Earnhardt, R. L. Hartsell, R. A. Hullender and Mr. Hudson. Three fourths of the men elected to represent the district at Statesville are opposed to unification at the present time. On motion of t’he conference, Secretary Adams was authorized to wire Mr. Ben jamin N. Duke thanking him for hie gen erous gift of $30,000 to Greensboro Col lege which is the organ of the two Metho dist conferences of North Carolina. Res olutions were also passed lauding Mr. Duke for his philanthropy and expressing the conference's appreciation for his most recent gift. Various reports were read during the , day and accepted without a dissenting vote. Upon the invitation of Rev. M. A. Osborne, the conference unanimously agreed to meet at Mt. Pleasant next year, sometime in the month of May. At 4 o'clock the conference adjourned with the benediction by Bishop Denny. Tlie Norwood people entertained the visitors and members of the conference in their homes. Everybody seemed high ly pleased with the kindness and hospi tality of the good Norwood folks. Rev. F. Q. Drymnn, the pastor, and the effi cient committee on entertainment liacl made every preparation for the social en joyment of the occasion. Brother Dry man Was an ideal host and bail left noth ing undone that would add to the con venience, comfort, and pleasure of his guests. lam sure every one present at the conference had a pleasant and en joyable time while in the town of Nor wood.

Diving Jtiljr and August ' riXth Kisastt sKHnK^mnr THB CONCORD DAILY ‘fiUBUkB Letter From Mr. Cxldwefi. Laurinbprg,' N. .Tuly 10, 1925. Dear Mr. Sherrill: \> Just a few lines to let you know that I am off for a short vacation and a visit to my son, William at Laurinbnrk .Tils is a fine little town, about dghteen miles below Hamlet on the Seaboard Air Line railroad with about 3,500 inhabitants, who are all bnay folks. The crops are fine. Cotton is waist high and loaded with bolls . The farmers are all dusting their cotton. I saw the airplane at work this morning. To see the plane at work you get up at 3 o’clock in the morn ing while there is dew on the plant. They dust with this plane about 600 acres per day. The cantaloupe season is on now. I drove out to the field where there were about fifty negroes picking and a white man calling “Hurry!” all the time and, believe me, they certainly were hurrying. The cantaloupes are picked' in baskets and carried to the wagon and emptied in sacks, and when the wagon is loaded it is driven to the packing shed, where the sacks are emptied into bins, where there are lots of hands packing the crates a(4i others nailing the lids on the prates, and a number of young men cfieckiiig anti marking up the crates. These mel lohs are near ripe. They are ready to eat in about six days after being crated. They ship 'cucumbers, watermelons, on ions, and a lot of, fine peaches. ( This cantaloupe field I saw yesterday had sixty eaens in it and they say the crop is fine. Corn is- finevaad ia full roasting ,ear— mpre corfi planted than ever before. The ats crop was good. The fields' that' were planted in oats have a fine crop of peas, knee high and a fine sight. -They have had plenty of rain. I will close, hoping to be at home Tuesday and wfH tell more about the trip when I see you. VICTOR CALDWELL.
