Sudden Adjournment Leaves Many Local Pul
pit Assignments Unfilled—Episcopal Distriets
and Plan of Visitation Announeed.
By THE REV. C. M. LIPHAM.

Fall meeting of Bishops, Shreveport,

A commission was appointed con
sisting of one bishop, three preachers
and three laymen, to he named by the
bishops, to consider exchange of ter
ritory occupied by the Northern and
Southern church, where their interest
can best be served by tHe exchange.
The time of meeting of the next
General Conference was fixed for
Wednesday, May 1, 1922.
The' question of increasing the lay
representation in the annual confer
ence came up and provoked a sharp
discussion. Judge Candler called at
tention to the fact that a quorum was
not present and he was opposed to
this legislation without a quorum.
“Don’t raise that question,” was
heard all over the house. “If you
raise that question we will adjourn,”
said many voices.
Finally George Stuart, of Birming
ham, got the floor and suggested that
the representation be eight instead
of ten, as proposed in the report, and
insisted that there was great de
mand for this increased representa
tion among the laymen. The report
passed in this shape, doubling the lay
representation, making eight dele
gates to the annual conferences from
each presidng elder’s district instead
of four, as heretofore.
An assessment of $60,000 was or
dered upon the whole church per an
num for the next four years for the
colored institutions of the church.
Various minor measures were
rushed through without reading.
The last act was to provide a con
stitutional commission to bring a
complete statement of the constitu
tion of the church at the next meet
ing of the General Conference in 1922,

Many Precedents Upset
By Methodist Conference
Defiance «of College of Bishops Outstanding
Feature of Session Just Closed.
By THE REV. C. M. LIPHAM.
The General Conference which came
to a close last night has left per
manent im&ressions on Methodist
minds and ethodist history. What
this conference put into reality has
long been smoldering in the minds
of many leaders in the church. What
ever of change that may be desired
in the Methodist Church is very dif
ficult to get enacted into law. In the
first place, the lawmaking body meets
only once in four years, and hitherto
it has been controlled by an awe for
the traditions of the church and the
bishops whose power has been un
questioned and whose veto has been
greatly feared.
But this conference was the product
of a determined reform movement.
Tk~ sessions had not advanced far
until it was plain that the radical
element was in the saddle. The test
votes of the opening days revealed
that the ultra-conservatives had no
voice in the legislation. One conser
vative, fighting hopelessly, said on the
conference floor, “You have throttled
us on every issue.”
One thing was noticeable from the
beginning, and that was that the
bishops were to bear the brunt of the
fire. The episoopal address, hitherto
a “Magna Charter” of legislation, was
delivered with its usual dignity and
pomp, but even this sacred document
did not get far until it was openly
questioned and definantly contra
dicted.
Bishops Overriden.
The manner of handling this ad
dress was so revolutionary that the
college of bishops was handicapped
all through the sessions. Their veto
on “laity rights for women” was de
fiantly hurled back on the bishops,
and one member said on the floor:
“We do not propose to have the will
of the church defeated by the opinion
of the bishops.” ©One memorial com
ing from Oklahoma was headed
“Abuse of Authority by the Bishops.”
The restiveness under the rulings of
the bishops was evident in the de
fiant manner in which the rulings of
the bishops were reversed when a
member appealed to the house from
what he thought was an unjust rul
ing.
Another determined movement came
to the fore in an effort to definitely
define the constitution of the church.
The lack of a definite constitution
has been largely the cause of vari
ance of opinion as to what is the ul
timate reach of a bishop’s authority.
The restrictive rules and the bishops’
decisions have been the checks on leg
islation, and beyond them there has
been no higher tribunal. The con
ference has appointed & commission
to outline clearly the constitution of
the church and will report to the
next general conference. This no
doubt will greatly clear up matters.
The movement toward democracy
in the church made a lasting impres
Women to Solicit Funds for Em
ploying Five Trappers to
Rid City of Pests.
Preliminary plans are being
launched by committees in charge
of the “Kill-the-Rat” campaign in
this city tc obtain subscriptions of
$3,000 for the first three months’ ex
penses in the war on rodents in At
lanta.
The campaign for funds, however,
it was officially announced will not
begin until after the close of the Red
Cross drive. It is proposed that a
system be provided to pay children
1 cent bounty on each rat. These
payments are to be made in thrift
stamrgs.
Mrs., Emma T. Martin, chairman
of the “Kill-the-Rat” campaign, has
been working assiduously during the
past few weeks completing an efli
cient organization to exterminate the
rats from Atlanta. Local commitiees
are co-operating in the campaign
with the Government, State and city
officials.
One feature of the proposed plan
is to employ a Government expert to
direct at least five trappers, each
trapper managing 200 traps, the work
to begin in the center of the business
section of the city and extend in va
rious directions. Fach firm contrib
uting to the rat fund will have the
official trap and the hold-fast trap,
which are approved by the Govern
ment expsrrts.

Committee at large, composed of
men, Wiley West, chairman.
Headquarters of the kill-the-rat
campaign are at No. 1627 Candler
Building. Mrs. Willshire Riley is
chairman of the finance committee
sion on the careful looker-on at this
conference. The right to participate
in the vital movements of the
church by the laity was unmistak
able. The hottest debate was over
the removal of the time limit on the
pastorate. It was bitterly contested
because it permitted the church itself
to come into the decision as to who
should be its pastor. The quarterly
conference now has the right to send
its choice as to whether the pastor
shall return for, more than four years
to the appointing powers, and this
choice is to be made the basis of
whether the preacher shall return.
This is the first time a congregation
has been allowed legally to come into
the cabinet with an expressed will as
to who shall be its pastor.
Women Recognized.
The “laity rights” for women is a
trenmedous movement toward democ
racy. While it must go the rounds
of the conferences for approval, it is
safe to say that the conferences that
created the delegates who voted for
the movements and hurled defiance at
the bishops’ veto will vote for laity
rights when taken one at a time. This
question is considered a question of
the hour, because of the new position
taken by women in every walk in life
under the war condiitions. This con
ference seemed so saturated with the
idea that they even ridiculed the op
ponents to the point of tantalizing.
One leader ridiculing the opposition
likened them to a lazy dog a boy
owned in Texas. The dog was found
whinning and complaining and the
boy was asked if his dog was sick.
“No,” said the boy, “he ain’t sick;
he’s just sitting on a cockleburr and
too doggone lazy to move.”
Another unmistakable impression
left by the conference is the general
desire for union with the Northern
Church. It was manifested every time
the subject was mentioned. Two of
the fraternal messengers were cheered
to the echo when they boldly stated
the two churches ought to be one.
The messenger from the Northern
Church was received with wild cheers,
the conference standing when he
said, “In all the essential points we
are one in spiritual passion, in world
purpose, in flaming zeal, we ought ec
clesiastically to be one.” It seemed
to be a matter of regret that there
was no satisfactory plan offered by
the commission appointed to formu
late a plan. The conference reaf
firmed its desire for union and ap
pointed a commission to further con
sider a plan of union, and also pro
vided for a call of the General Con
ference in case such a plan could be
found and the Northern Church ac
cents it.
On the whole, this conference was
an eye-opener, and will long exert
its influence in church affairs, and,
while radical in many things, it is
believed the church will move freer
and more forcibly than ever.

To Increase Strength,
Vigor and Nerve Force
ORDINARY BITRO-PHOSPHATE
- WILL DOUBLE THE STRENGTH
OF WEAK, DELICATE, NERV
OUS PEOPLE IN TWO WEEKS'
TIME IN MANY INSTANCES.
Weak nerves quickly reduce the strong
and robust to an extremely pitiable con
dition and rob men and women of all
the joys of life. Slowly and stealthily
the health is destroyed, the poor suf
ferer only realizing the magnitude of
his ailment when faulty memory, sleep.
lessness, indecision, lack of energy or
other unmistakable symptoms indicate
weak nerves. Then it is a serious and
dangerous mistake to resort to the use
of so-called tonics, alcoholic or drug
stimulants.
Weak and exhausted nerves need food
and nourishment—not stimulants that
lash them into temporary activity., The
food and nourishment advised by pres
ent-day physicians is just one 5-grain
tablet of pure bitro-phosphate taken
during or lmmedlatelf after each meal
Simple advice, but its soundness has
been proven over and over again.
Moreover, the genuine standard bitro
phosphate is inexpensive and is sold by
Jacobs and most all good druggists un
der a binding guarantee of satisfaction

A Few Applications of Sage Tea and
Sulphur Bring Back Its Vigor,
Color, Gloss and Youthfulness.
Common garden sage brewed into
a heavy tea with sulphur added,
will turn gray, streaked and faded
hair beautifully dark and luxuriant.
Just a few applications will prove
a revelation if your hair is fading,
streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage
Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier
way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's
' Sage and Sulphur Compound at any
drug store all ready for use. 'This
is the old-time recipe improved by
‘the addition of other ingredients.
| While wispy, gray, faded hair is
not sinful, we all desire to retain
our youthful appearance and at
tractiveness. By darkening your
hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound, no one can tell, because
it does it so naturally, so evenly.
You just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through’
your hair, taking one small strand]
at a time; by morning all gray haim'
have disappeared, and, after anoth-(
er application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is a delightful
toilet requisite and is not intended
for the cure, mitigation or preven
tion of diseases.—Advertisement

Increased Rates All Over New Jersey
The most extensive rate increases recently granted in a single State were those to the
Public Service Corporation of New Jersey, which serves almost every important communi
ty in that State.
This company furnishes street car service to 143 cities and towns, light and power
service to 184 cities and towns, and gas service to 158 communities.
The New Jersey Public Service Commission has granted this company a war increase
in its rates of 25 per cent for power, 25 per cent for lights and 7 cents per thousand, or
about 10 per cent additional, for gas.
To the Public: ‘
Here are some large and representative cities located in all parts of the United States that
have appreciated the difficulties under which their public utility companies were operating, and
that have allowed these companies to raise their rates to a point that will, at least, allow them to
