every home iu the land to give the traffic

General Conference
Notes and Comments
ay W. 14. Karr
Among the many features of the
work dealt with reference will be nec-
essarily brief and perhaps somewhat
disjointed but may convey an idea, at
least, of what was done by the Confer-
ence.
A committee of 60 was appointed
on Church Union and Dr, Chown was
authorized to call a special session of
Conference it he sees fit.
Pew rents are hereafter under the
tart of Conference. There is no order
made to absolutely forbid renting of
pews but Conference carried unani-
mously ;t report commending to ,the
churches the abolition of pew rents.
Methodist churches are to be open
all the week—not merely on Sundays.
This was carried unanimously.
Committee of Lay Agencies recom-
mended that General Superintendent
be asked to frame a manual of family
worship with suitable hymns, seript-
ure readings and forms of prayer, it
described family worship as the great-
est of Christian lay agencies. This

more freer in .the regular Sunday ser,
viers by singing and responses
It w is agreed to give lay workers in
Mission districts, the rights' to per
tom marriage ceremonies and ad-
minister the Sacrament where the civil
law allowed this.
Despite a vigorous opposition, Con-
ference decided that young probation-
ers who have been a year on military
duty overseas should not be required
to ,enc out the requited time on the
cireuit before they can be ordained. It
was urged that it would be an injustice
to these soldier -students to make theta
!%u through the usual routine,
11 was out only said to be unfair,
but dishonest for the church to re-
tdn half the stoney paid in by minis-
ters to the •Superannuation Fund, when
such ministers leave the Ministry. It
was carried that all such retiring
preachers should get their money back
with 5 per cent, interest.
When the question arose of making
the nomination of Stewards open to
any member of a quarterly official
hoard, some objected but it was finally
decided to stake the nominations open,
which takes the power out of the hands,
of the clergy. Minister may still nomi-
nate men as Stewards, but he has not
the sole right to do so, as he once had,
The Superannuation Committee sub-
mitted a report recommending a sub-
stantial increase in the superannuation
grants to aged and disabled clergy, and
to widows and orphans of the clergy.
This was passed almost unanimously,
General Conference is asked to in-
vite the other 'Churches of Canada to
a National Convocation for the con-
sideration of the problems of recon-
struction.
Conference expresses the opinion
that for the future safety of civiliza-
tion the allies should refuse, at all
times, to discuss or negotiate Peace
until Germany is ready to lay down her
arms and accept the proposals of the
entente powers.
The General Conference is profound-
ly thankful for the fact that the Holy
Land has been liberated from the de-
plorable- rule of the Turk. Especially
do we rejoice that the armies of the
British Empire. led by a British general,
had the honor df accomplishing this
glorious consummation which has been
the hope of the Christian world for
centuries.
Few people care much for quotation
of figures and yet we think a few will
be of interest in data collected Ment-
bership of the l\letltodist Church now
is 388,210. New members received
during quadrennium 83,664.
There are 2,759 ministers and pro-
bationers in the church. 583 were re-
ceived since last General Conference,
532 Methodist ministers and probation-
ers enlisted as soldiers in the world
war.
Church raised during past 4 years
for local church purposes $12,330,613
ministers' salaries, $7,273e210; con-
nexiotal funds, —6,009,811; and Mis-
sions nearly 83,000,000,
Total number of lay officials in
church is 40,985, an increase 461.
This includes stewards, representatives
trustees, local preachers, class leaders,
Sunday School and Epworth League
workers.
Methodist Churches in Canada raised
$24,627,309 for all purposes, increase
of $212,516 over period 4 years ago.
Churches, parsonages, furnishings,
colleges, rescue homes, publishing
houseS, etc., are valued at $44,178,371
increase of $2,338,791.
Without a word of debate the Con-
ference voted unanimously to raise the
minimum salary of Methodist pastors
to 81,200 for married men, $1,000
for unmarried men and $800 ,for pro-
bationers.
After all the talk of probable exten-
sion or removal of the pastoral terns
limit it was left practically where it
was. It was. however, enacted that
by a two-thirds vote of Stationing
'Committee a minister may be stationed
for a longer term year by year.
Wooten were unanimously voted
full rights to all privileges of the
church barring the public ministry,
Ministers elected as fraternal dele-
gates to bear greetings of the Canadian
church to the Methodists of Great Bri-
tain and America will be' Rev. Dr, Spar -
ling, Hamilton to the Britisk Wesley-
an Conference; Rev, Dr, T, Albert
Moore, Toronto, to the Episcopal
Methodist Church of the United States;
and Rev. Salem Bland, D. D Winnipeg,
to the Methodist Episdopal Church
South. That these reverend brethren
will do it well goes without saying. It
is a pleasant duty, always accompanied
by a royal welcome by -the visited body,
The coming of Rev, W. Hodson Smith,
of London, England; Bishop Berry, of
New fork; Dr, Roman, a colored M.D.,
of Nashville, Tenn., and Rev. Mr,
Prettyman, Chaplain of the U, S. Sen-
ate. from Washington, to convey
greetings to Canadian Methodism, was
a very felicitous part of the program.
"Blest he the tie that binds" was the
vocal expression itt song by the dele-
gates.
Allowance for Superannuated min-
isters is to be increased from $12 to
$15 per year for each year served, A
pastor who has labored 40 years will
now receive a retiring allowance of
8600 instead of $480.
The Methodist Church is not on the
fence on the Prohibition question and
vigorous resolution was passed protest-
ing against tate Dominion or Provincial
Governments taking any action in the
proposal to lift the ban on liquor on
account- of influenza epidemic. Con-
ference declared itself against any re-
1,txtnt of the enforcement of the pro-
hibition law. Resolution was ordered
to be sent to each Premier in Canada
and Newfoundland.
A great crusade for Missions has
been inaugurated at this Conference,
financial objective is to raise $8,000,-
000 for missionary work at hone and
abroad in 5 years, This will mean
churches will have to double ordinary
contributions each'ear for next 5
years, that is, to raise a sum of $1,-
600,000 a year while thq drive is on.
To select the officiary that will prove
competent to transact the business of
tite church hi its different organiza-
tions for the next 4 years is always a
feature of deep interest and care but
so well had the staff done their work
during the past quadrennium the only
changes made were those of necessity

Many so-called remedies for anae-

telling what their medicines contain.

Nothing was left undone by the Con-
ference Committee of Arrangements
in catering to the comfort and conven-
ience of the delegates, hence in the
church were to be found a postoffice,
telephone, stenographer, pen, ink and
stationery on fire tables arranged for
correspondence, time table of trains
and street railways, &c, The delegates
appreciated the forethought of the

It would not be an easy matter to
select a more representative or special-
ly qualified set of men to occupy these
important posts and the Methodist
Church of the Dominion will not only
watch their respective departtnents
but lend a helping hand most cheer-
fully and generously as they discharge
their duties and seek to promote the
best interests of those they endeavor
to serve.
The 13illetting Committee arranged
that we were most comfortably and
hospitably looked after at the cosy
hone of J. t1, and Mrs. Cox, 100 Went-
worth St, North. The association with
them will be a happy memory until we
have a chance of another visit with
them, either at Brussels or I'tamilton.
Guess it is perfectly true that "Friend-
ship is the golden chain that binds
Communities together," and great
comfort is derived when you have the
at home feeling.
A marvellous display of books, snaps,
charts, mottoes, lanterns, curios, &c„
&c., was made by the various depart-
ments, viz: Missionary, Sunday School,
Social Service, Child Welfare, the
Book Room, and so fortlr. These were
systematically arranged in_ the large
gymnasium of the church and bright,
active attendants were on hand, in
charge of each to supply information
nati0n
and fully explain the usefulness and
practical service of .the same to all le-
terested. It was the best feature of
the kind we had ever seen and proves
the growth of ways and means and
shows how many "live wires" must be
at work to ensure success along these
special lines and enable the results to
be wheat instead of chaff,

tonlans nd parents of the host) Mrs,

LITTLE ECHOES FROM
THE CONFERENCE.
Conference lasted 16 days. It
might have run another day or so had
not the influenza epidemic been so
prevalent, Several delegates were call-
ed home owing to illness and a Mr.
Harker, a Hamilton delegate, died while
going to 'Conference one morphia,
So delegates constituted a quorum
at the Conference and only about 60
remained to tate close out of the 374,
it is no easy matter for laymen, pat ti-
culuarly, to absent themselves from
home for 2 or 3 weeks,
It was refreshing to notice how
promptly Dr, Chown opened each ses-
sion and the Secretary, Rev, Dr. Moore,
was always at his post ready to push
business. If all public bodies were
as prompt it would mean many hours
conserved.
The Conference singing was splen-
did, led by R, G, Kirby, a Toronto dele:
gate, and accompanist, on the piano,
was often Rev. T, E. Sawyer, of Lon-
desboro, both of whom did their part
well. 187 Methodist preachers can

Where the next meeting place of
General Conference was left to Special
Committee. Toronto wanted it but
some think it may move West again
for its mit tit session, if railway rates
can be obtained. No special rates
were attainable this year, largely in-
creasing the expense.
Methodism leans toward Church
Union but is waiting on action of
other denominations interested.
Press was well represented and the
newspaper reports, on the whole, gave
the gist of what was being done every
day in a very correct manner and in
well written columns.
There is no pipe organ in the First
Methodist church, Hamilton, yet, al-
though provision is made for it by th.e
architect, but a piano is used instead
and on Sunday the large choir was ac-
companied by an orchestrt of merit
The choir selections apd soles were
musical treats,
Many an interesting start' was load
by the returned Chaplains who were
attending 'he Conference and all were
ready tc record the Canadian boys first
place for courage and heroism,
A prayer was submitted at the Con-
ference for use by the clergy of the
Methodist church: "Guard, 0 God,
those who guard us, and guide those
who govern us."
Rev, S. Wesley Dean, now Secretary
of the Methodist Union of Tertunto, is
slated fee- the post of Secretary of the
Financial department of the Methodist
Church of Canada and will likely take
I over his new duties about the begin-
ning of tate new year, Mr. Dean said
the position was unsought and unex-
pected, but he would do the best he
could to till the new position,
it is possible that there may be a
development along Fire insurance lines
and in the Property and loan depart-
ment of the financial end of the work
of the church in the near, future,

the visitor In the Ambitious City is
"Have you been up on the Mountain?"
'rite old hymn loonier. up before us
"Could we but climb where Muses
stood and view the landscape o'er"
but the seer o1 lung ago saw no more
entrancing view from Nebo's peak
than presents itself from the mount-
ain top at Hamilton on a fine day in
Autumn. The city has a population
of possibly 120,000 and has struck a
gait that will not be easily checked.
We think Hamilton well bears out the
good things said shout it by NO its
energetic inhabitants ;end well pleased
tourists and visitors, its situation
would be very difficult to improve up-
on and tke countryside adjacent con-
duces to the well serving of the popu-
lation as it relates to markets, which
are Ai, 'There appears to be little or
no squalor and few evidences of slum
life. The fruit belt, so conveniently
located, and the water privilege of bay
and lake combine to slake conditions
well nigh Edenic—barring the serpent,
we hope.
Many other items crowd in on us
regarding the Conference but we think
we have probably taken enough space
for the time being. W.H.K.
