' ' ' Question 80 was resumed and the characters of the preachers in the Wash ington, Elizabeth City, New Bern, and Warrengton districts were, passed and their reports were submitted. The credentials of J. A. Rouse, a for mer member of this conference and of 6. K. Andrews were surrendered to the conference. Bishop Morrison asked T. J. Qattls if he desired-to say anything to the con ference, and he replied that he had no statement to make. R. J. Moorman was referred to the committee on Conference Relations for the superannuated relation and 8. Lef- fert and C, W. Smith to the same com mittee for the supernumerary relation. A communication was read from the President of Greensboro Female Col lege and was referred to the Board of Education. The cause of the suffererB in Southern Methodism In Galveston caused by the destructive cyolone in September last was represented by D. H. Tuttle. When we sing of love for Christ and His church," said he, "how far does that love reach f ' Next to the wreck of a human being to me the saddest sight on earth is a storm destroyed church, or the bare walls of a church which has been burned. Satan does his most effectual work when he destroys a church even tempo rarily. The good which comes from such a catasltophy as that which has visited Galveston It shows us how others love us "Let os open our hearts, and open our pockets, and make such an offering -for suffering Methodism in Galveston as will make glad the heart of the Son of God." Bishop Morrison stressed the lrapor tance of making a liberal collection to this worthy cause and requested the Sec retary to eall the roll of the Conference, and give the members the opportunity of contributing. This with the basket collection amounted to $933.50. Rev. J. H Prttcbett, D. D one of ths Missionary Secretaries of the M. E. Church, South addressed the conference on his work. Some of the thoughts which be advanced are found below: "Every oboe In a while I bear a pes simistic groan from the church at homi regarding our missionary work, but i am here to tell you tbat our work was ntver la betier condition and a discour (Ring note never come from the field.

The 20th question having been com pleted and the characters of all the preachers having passed Bishop Morri son suggested an earlier ad'onrnment than usual, and on motion of E. A. Tales the conference adjourned after an. nouncementt, at 1 p. m. with the Dene diction by Rev. Dr. Prltchett. . Addreae at Might. The educational anniversary of the Conference waa held at night and the address was delivered by Rev. J. 0. Kilgo, D. D. His subject was on Edu cation and below will be found only a few of the many thoughts suggested. Methodism is a very serious form of faith. No one can touch its early litera ture without being Impressed with this seriousness. The early Methodists were not con cerned about outward environment. They were just as powerful under an oak tree as In a cathedral. "This however has characterized Methodism from the beginning and must continue to characterize her if she is to continue to do tbe work God Intends her to do. Whatever Methodism undertakes she must undertake seriously, whether this be a prayer-meeting or an excursion for children. t "We were not commissioned to be frivolous, but to do the work of God in seriousness. "The educational work of Methodism must be carried on In the same spirit of seriousness as she 'runs a camp meet ing. "We must found this work In the se rious faith of our Methodism and our people must be made to understand that It rests there. . We ere not trying to secure popular praise; we are not trying to have men laud us, but we are trying to do the work of God. "It has been suggested that In our ed ucational work we need popular favor. When did Methodism Ret that dis ease ? "There are two ways by which you msy gsin popularity. First by thinking and doing as other men think and do. or by not thinking and doing like anyone else. A negative popularity at leaat It gained by this process. "I hold tbst no man has a right to compromise bis individuality for the sake of popularity. Methodism cannot afford to make this compromise. The price to be paid it loo high. Too might trim your college so as to make It popular. Too might trim tbe eiamioatloDS down to that any one could enter. You might lower ber ttaodard of conduct until the meanest man could stay there. But thank Ood we don't here to do this and will not do It. "The other way to gala popularity It to bold to a truth until yo seeks atea tblok as you think. there are a thousand things In this world which aaed to be rlahted, aad lb college aseet do bar part to right these. "Tbe object of Ike eolleg meet be to change mea. ' Wherever Methodises baa pleated ber foot aba has eheagad seea. -, "I kava a dlvlee rerereao for the ma who eyi 'I doat keow which way tbe crowd la going, bat Ule to the way y Lord waat, aad ha eoatlnaea la l, "Uto oar batlaaea ta ekaage wroag cbtlsseet aad to aaaka awatisaeat where there It eo teetlessat. , r I do tot believe ta a collage Mag looked epoa at a ptaoa la which boyt art to be aareed Ikroogh the early years ot their taa hood.

"Whea yoa strike a christian -coneo- ence with a christian motive back of It, and the energy of a father and a mother yoa will tea a way made for children to j be educated. Hvv"r-: ' i i Ton may hunt the world over, bat the greatest motive In the world it rc-l ltgton. - , ; " - k 1 love my country, I 'love her Baal everywhere, but Hove my boy better than my country, and I will do more for my boy than for my country. "Go back and get the motive ot the home right and yon will save Method ism irom ignorance and from- mean ness. "The greatest guardian of a people Is religion, not culture, but piety. . "Now I want to remind yoa along one another point. - Ton will never educate a man right until, yoa get htm to value the supernatural as he should. "War hat been made upon the Bible until It hat literally been dug out of the mud. I dont want a Bible that is dug ont of the mud, but a Bible that Is born of God. "War has been made upon prayer and the effort has been made to have us be lieve that prayer ia a mere devotional exercise, bnt that no answer is available. Thank God that answer is available. 1 don't want a God who is not; available. A Uoa who is not available might as well be dead. We must get man to the point where he will realize the super natural, which Is the power to move upon the natural until tbe supernatural becomes natural. "The supernatural lifts man out of the realm of nature and away from the power of law, and up Into the realm where grace lifts him to where he should be. "Whenever you undertake to solve the problems of the world by the process of natural law your education is lnfide lic. Christian education existB alone !n tbe power to realize and use the power of the supernatural: It exists lu tbe power to have fslth and to use it." In conclusion Dr. Ellgo said: "During the time I have been In yovr college, I have seen a beautiful park grow from an open ground where cows grazed. I have seen her faculty grow from eight men to one of twenty-four I have seen her residences grow from seven to twenty-three. I have seen her endowment grow from $33,000 to $330. 000. You love your college snd the man who raises a finger against ber does so at the risk of tbe loss of Christian confi dence and Chriatian life. "If I should be asked where is Trin ity's richest endowment I would say it Is in the hearts of these men. All 1 ask of the North Carolina Conference Is that you stand by God as He has stood by you, tbat you stand by your college now end In the future when she will mean more to tbe cause of Christian 4 MM HOSE AM Sunday's paper will toll you all about it, , that-education than a mere North Carolina ackool.

I want to toll ron that your prayers have done much to help me. . "God bless yoa all."
