As each of tnelr names were called those of the old preachers who were, present arose to give an account of themselves to the confer ence. It was a scene of genuine pathos, mixed at times with humor, as these venerable soldiers of the cross, placed upon the pension roll and retired list by force of physical weakness and the ravages of decaying years, arose one by one and gave their experience* for the past year. Rev. J. A. Reynolds, one of the superannuates, created some what of a sensation when he took oc casion to criticise a certain minister for attending a baseball game. He warned the conference that some M'th- odlsta were getting too ''sporty.” Clos ing his talk Mr. Reynolds said, In speaking of the scarcity of young min. Isters, "If you can't get enough young preachers, call on the old guard.” Rev. R. F.
