For Evangelistic Preachers

Perhaps the most Important act of thoOwensboro district conference JI E churchSouth which met here last week and onewhich deserves special mentlen by Itselfwas the adoption of a resolution Instructingdelegates to tho annual conference to askthe general conference to empower bishops

appoint preachers having special evan-gelistic

¬

gifts to do work of this characterThe resolution was adopted by a vote thatwas practically unanimous Tho resolutionwas original with tho conference at Its ses-

sion¬

hero and was proposed and urged foradoption as such

work of any of district conferencemaking the conference hero otherwise a

successful one In every detail doublyand a meeting of which to be proud
