There will be no special features con nected with the conference, with the exception of the Thanksgiving sermon, which will be preached by Bishop Mc- Coy. There is a mass of business to come before the conference. Just what cities will attempt to land the conference for 1913 is not yet cer tain, with the exception of Macon, but It is said that four or five other cities will contest Macon’s claims to the hon or. This matter is sure to become one of lively speculation and interest. Only morning sessions of the confer ence will be held, the afternoons being devoted for the most part to committee work. Nor will there be night sessions, unless it shall be found impossible to get through with the work otherwise. This conference represents 90,000 Methodists in the southern half of Georgia. This is the largest member ship the conference has ever had. The membership in the Savannah district alone is more than 10,000. The total value of property in the South Georgia conference is 22,409,136. Os this amount 11,845,785 represents the value of the church buildings.

Wray, pastor of Mulberry Street church, Macon, to the Florida conference. Dr. Wray has been a member of the South Georgia confer ence for a number of years.

The mem bers of the conference are very much interested in the appointment of a suc cessor to Dr. Wray. It is believed that a strong effort will be made to have Dr. W.

She is Mr. Brush’s widow, who before his marriage, twenty years ago. was Elsie Lombard, an actress. “KWEIS” BEST ■ ’ FOR IHE BOWELS No headache, bad taste, sour stomach or coated tongue by morning. It is more necessary that you keep your Bowels, Liver and Stomach clean, pure and fresh than it is to keep the sewers and drainage of a large city free from obstruction. Are you keeping clean inside with Cascarets—or merely forcing a pas sageway every few days with salts, cathartic pills or castor oil? This is important. Cascarets immediately cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour, undigested and fermenting food and foul gases; take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system the constipated waste matter and poi son in the intestines and bowels. No odds how badly and upset you feel, a Cascaret tonight will straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 10-cent box from your druggist will keep your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bow els regular for months. Don’t forget the children—their little insides need a good, gentle cleansing, too. (Advt.)

Pryor St. B and 5 Auburn Ave. If Men and Religion Bulletin No. 37 “I Will Give Her —A Door of Hope” At your door, you would not let a woman die, or suffer worse than death for the lack of money. To save her, you would give even the price of an automobile tire, if not the cost of the car. Or, the price of a number of evenings at the opera, or the play. Or, the cost of ten or more drinks and a box or two of cigars. SURELY YOU WOULD NEV ER CRY: “TOO MANY CALLS FOR CHARITY,” AND LEAVE HER TO DIE AT YOUR DOOR. Because she is lying, crushed by her burden,at a distance from your threshold, you will not turn aside and say: “She is not at my door, but sev eral blocks away,” More than city blocks walked Jesus, bearing a cross and stagger ing under blows, that He might save her, and you and yours, by the giving of His life. What will you give? She and many like her are here, today, as you know. OUR RECORDER, THE COURTS, THEIR SOLICITORS, OUR POLICE FORCE AND ITS CHIEF ARE CO-OPERATING TO SAVE THEM. They want your help. Almost daily, they find them— women, often mere children, with minds so maimed that they must feel the law’s strong hand, ere they can be saved. Monday, one in short skirts, a child in years but ages old in evil, stood with others in the Recorder’s court. “A door of hope” for them is needed.
