A PROTEST TO THE GENERAL BOARD OF MISSIONS

To the General Board of Missions, Methoclist Episcopal Church, South, Nashville, Tennessee.

The Florida Annual Conference in session at Bradentown, Florida, December 6th, 1923, hereby respectfully enters its protest against what it believes to have been hasty and ill-advised action by the Board of Missions, when by a vote of thirty-two members, out of a total membership of eighty-two members of the Board, or by a vote of thirty-two to twenty-three of those members present and voting, it was determined to move Scarritt Bible and Training School from Kansas City, Mo., and locate it at Nashville, Tenn., in close proximity to the campus of Vanderbilt University and affiliate it with the George Peabody Teacher's College.

It is our deliberate judgment, that the matter is of too great moment, its operation fraught with too great consequences to the future of our Church, to be thus determined. We have no desire to

M. E. Church, South 27

unduly delay action nor to hinder the great work of Scarritt, nor to embarrass those who have hitherto given it support and direction. But we do earnestly protest against what seems to us, hasty action by a minority.

Therefore, we earnestly request that no further action be taken until the whole matter can be reviewed, either by the whole Board at its regular annual session, or by the General Conference in regular session.

J. P. HILBURN, 0. A. THROWER, W. A. COOPER.

BOARD OF EDUCATION REPORT No. 1.

In presenting the first section of its report, your Board or Educa-

28 Florida Annual Conference

tiou rhinks it important to remind the Conference that we rpust na\ e a strong standard colleg0.

To overlook or underestimate this f.act would. be 3. fatal mistake. It is an occasion of profound gratitude that the great Head of the Church has providentially made possible such an institution in our Southern College at Lakeland. '

This school is in its second year at the new location, and has an enrollment of 238 students, a strong faculty, and a distinctively Christian atmosphere with lofty ideals. Its possibilities of usefulness are unlimited with prompt and proper financial support.

We therefore make the following recommendations: 1. That our Bishop, Presiding Elders and official laymen be re­

quested and urged to give active co-operation in the effort to collect the Christian Education pledges during the months of February, March and April, 1924.

2. That every subscriber be urged to pay the amount of his pledgt:~ due at that time or if possible his entire vledge.

3. That, as members of the Conference, we assure the manage­ment of the College .and the Christian Education Momement, that we will to the fullest extent help them to place this institution on a sound financial basis and to increase its patronage and usefulness.

We endorse the recommendation of the General Board of Educa­tion, stressing the importance of: the call to Life Service in our Con­gregations, Schools, and Colleges; the continuance of local aid funds for students; attention on the part of under-graduate preachers to the Conference courses of study; care in the use of the two-thirds IUle for admitting unprepared men on trial in the Conference.

We indorse the report adopted by the Junaluska Conference on Religious Education; the resolution of the Board of Trustees of Southern College to amend the Charter; the .application to the General Conference Board of Education for an appropriation of $1200.00 for work to be carried on at the University of Florida at Gainesville.

We indorse Vl. 0. Lemasters as Secretary-Treasurer of the Chris­tian Education Movement with appreciation of his earnest and effici­ent service; and the designation of the second Sunday in February, 1924, as Southern College Day. We submit the following report of W. 0. Lemasters, Secretary-Treasurer of the Educational Fund for the year ending December 1st, 1923.

The amount collected on regular subscriptions, ________ $59,031.00 The .amount collected on directed gifts, --------------- 5,155.00

Total ___ ------------------~---------------------- $64,186.00 To this amount ought to be added $15,000.00, which has not been

reported because held until the adjustment of . the loan hereafter explained.

We recommend for appointment: First, R. H. Alderman as Presi­dent of Southern College; Olin Boggess and George F. Scott as Profes­sors in Southern College.

We indorse, and recommend for .adoption by the Conference, the following paper bearing on the proposed loan of $300,000.00 to Southern College.

"WHEREAS, THE FLORIDA ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, ,SOUTH, in promoting thE> erection, at Lakeland, Polk County, Florida, of a college to be known as Southern College, at its ordinary and usual session in the year 1921, authorized the Board of Trustees of said College to procure· the necessary funds to build and equip said proposed college, and,

M. E. Church, South 29

RESOLUTIONS OF CONDOLENCE

\Ve, the Sunday School Board of the Florida ConferencE:>, resolve: First, That we sadly receive the news of the deceasP or one of

our chief shepherds, Bishop James Atkins. Second, that our beloved Bishop Atkins, having been in the past

the Secretary of the General Sunday School Board, and General Editor of the Sunday School Literature, and Chairman of the General Sunday School Board, together with having been t:niversally recognized as pre-eminently consecrated to the interc>st of the Sunday School work and life, we feel it especially fitting that our Board present these resolutions of apprec~.ation of our late Bishop's great worth, not only in the Sunday School life that was so dear to his heart, but also his skilled worth in Pvery pari of his varied and many ministries of great sC'rvice to our beloved Methodism as a part of the Church of God.

Thirrl, that we lament the less of this, our beloved Bishop, while we humbly bow to the divine and Fatherly Providence that bears him from us unto His own presence in mansions "not made with hands eternal in the heavens."

Fourth, that in sympathy, love and prayer we extend to his family and loved ones such consolation as lies in our power, while we com­mend them unto 1 he divine Father's love, the Savior's abounding grace, and to the comforts of the Holy Spirit, who is able to impart a peace which the world can neither give nor take away.

Fifth, that a copy of these resolutions be spread upon our minutes, :t copy be forwarded to his family, and that a copy be furnished the Florida Christian Advocate for publication.

Lovingly submitted, FLORIDA SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD.

Unanimously adopted by the Florida Annual Conference in session at Bradentown, Florida, December 7th, 1923.

REPORT OF THE SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD TO THE FLORIDA ANNUAL CONFERENCE

The Conference Sunday School Board is pleased to report a year of l·nparallelled progress. The emphasis this yE'ar has been placed upon

34 I·'lo;·ida ,\nnual Conference

the work of organizing the districts for mutual helpfulness along all lines of Sunday-school endeavors. At the beginning of the year there was one district with a district organization. At the close of the year a district board is functioning efficiently in every district of the conference. Several of the districts have elected all the distric1 officers required by our District Program of Vlork or the "C" type, others have elected a part or them.

One of thC' 111a~or objfctin~s of these boards is to formulate plans under the direction of the Conference Board for reaching every Sun­day-sciwol in the Conference with practical helps.

The training work has received its due proportion of the time and attention of the Board this year. A total of 751 standard credits has been issued tllrough seven standard training schools, a Conference school, Junaluska, local classes, individual students and three of our Methodist colleges. The number of credits issued this year shows an increase of fifty per cent, over last year.

The Sunday School Board, the Education Board and the Mission Board conducted jointly the first session of the Conference Summer School to be held in the new plant at Southern College. The attendance was small, but a great deal or interest was sho'\Yn. The results were sufficiently encouraging to justify us in offering our hearty co-opera­tion in another school to be held in 1924.

The most encouraging feature of the work of the Board during the past year has been the hearty co-operation and sympathy of tlw presiding elders, pastors and other workers. A large measure of the successes attained this year has been due to them.

The ever increasing number of communications requesting help, covering all phases of Sunday-school work is an evidence of increased activity in the local schools.

We feel that the splendid work accomplished this year by our Board is largely due to the untiring efforts of F. M. Williamson, and Miss Lola Lawler. The Board will employ a Conference Sunday School superintendent.

As a result of a conference precedent that presiding elders should not serve on Conference Boards, our Board has sustained a great loss in the resignation of Rev. L. D. Lowe as our Chairman and member of the Board. The Board is very fortunate in the election of Brother S. D. Harris to succeed Brother Lowe as chairman and Rev. W. P. Buhrman to succeed him as a member of the Board. To succeed Brother Harris as treasurer of the Board, Rev. T. R. Adams was elected.

In order to carry forward the work committed to our hands, we again ask you for an appropriation of $10,000.00 which we very much need. Our budget for 1924, a copy of which is hereto attached, will show the p:wposes for which this fund is desired.

John A. Hendry requested to be relieved from duty on the Sunday School Board. J. 0. Grogan was nominated and elected to fill the vacancy.

Full Connection.-Question No. 6 was asked, "Wl1o are admitted into full connection," and the Committee on Admissions approving and after taking the vows, Frank Wynn Cramer, Marvin Loami Smith, Marshall Elijah Thompson, George Morris Glazier, Jesse Lee Criswell, and Robert Terrill Caldwell were received into full connection by unanimous vote.

REPORT NO.3, OF THE FLORIDA CONFERENCE SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD

Resolved First, That we do hereby express it as our strongest conviction that all of our Sunday School Literature, lessons and books, and our Sunday School Training courses be in all Doctrinal teach­ings thoroughly Scriptural and Methodistic; and that we call upon tiw General Sunday School Board of our Church to not only disavow the teachings above mentioned and given out by our Summer ::;cnool last Summer, but also to ask for the resignation of the persons responsibl~ for such teachings, and others in connection with that board in sympa­thy with such teachings, and that naught shall be incorporated in those courses that are contrary to the Methodist polity and system. Sf'c~md, We deplore the occasion that brought about the controversy that developed regarding the lectures delivered by Dr. Bland, during the training school period of the General Sunday School Board at Juna­luska last summer. We regret the unfortunate statPments reputed to Dr. Bland, and we respectfully urge the management of the future Training Schools of our Church to see to it that no speaker be used, who is not known to be thoroughly sound, touching the doctrines and traditions of Methodism.

The reports were unanimously adopted by the Conference as follows:

BOARD OF MISSIONS

Report No. 2.

General Board

The General Board of Missions calls attention to the lact that its financial year has not been an easy one, due to two or three facts­the decrease in returns on the assessments, the failing off in regular specials, the decrease in the Centenary collections last year, and the necessity of borrowing heavily in order to carry on work already started that could not be deferred without serious damage. However, the improved business conditions and the splendid results of the the emergency campaign for the Centenary early in the year met the most critical needs, and the work for the year has kept well up with the level or recent years.

The General Board and the Conference Boards l1ave been drawn closer by recent General Conference legislation, and the General Board expects to depend more largely than ev€'r upon the ConferencE' Boards for assistance.

"Because of the Missionary assessment being connected with other claims or the Church in the general work budget, the returns on the assessment have been smaller than formerly." It is or the utmost importance therefore that "the Conference Board by every means at its command seek to stimulate an immediate return to that spirit of emulation and pride in the regular collections which the Church had prior to the Centenary and which seems to have been lost for awhile. This is all the more necessary as we approach the end of the Centenary and return to the normal resources of' the Church."

Centenary Matters

'.rhe five year period of the Centenary will end with this year, with the Centenary payments far from being completed. Foreseeing this, the General Conference made ample provision for carrying on the work of the Centenary Commission until it shall be completed. About half of the pledges remain unpaid. Facing this appalling fact, the Commission called a meeting of the chairmen of Conference Boards of Missions, together with certain other representatives to meet in Memphis, Tennessee, September 18-19, 1923, to formulate a plan for completing the Centenary payments. At this meeting it was decided to undertake a campaign during the months of December and January, to be known as THE PAYOUT CAMPAIGN, during which a most intensive effort should be made to reach every charge, and every church, and every subscriber, in an effort to induce them to "payout" on their pledges. Into this campaign the Conference Boards of Missions, the Sunday School Boards, the Epworth League Boards, the Woman's Missionary Council, and the Presiding Elders and Pastors, together with the Board of Lay Activities are pledged

38 Florida Annual Conference

I o co-operate with each other to the end that nothing may bt> left undone to make it a great success.

It is asked that each Annual Conference shall adopt the following plan of operation:

1. Put all churchf's that made pledges into four groups. Let the first group comprise those churches that have paid out their pledges. The second group, those churches which have four-fifths of their pledges. The third group, those churches which have three-fifths of their pledges. Fourth group, those churches 'vhich have paid less than three-fifths of their pledges.

2. Give proper recognition to the "firstclass" or group by publish­ing their names in the Conference Minutef' or AdvocatP TTr<.?:e tr­churches of the "second class" to pay in full the WhOI't:l of theh pledges by February 1, 1924. Urge the "thirdclass" to pay a mininum of one-half of the balance unpaid by February 1, 1924. Urge the "fourthclass" to pay a minimum or one-third of their unpaid balance by February 1, 1924.

3. Adopt the Memphis plan for the PAYOUT CAMPAIGN, and pledge all the above mentioned Boards and all the pastors, presiding Plders, and laymen, to the fullest co-operation in carrying out the plan in our Conference.

By appointment of Bishop Ainsworth, Rev. W. H. Budd of the South Georgia Conference, becomes the Area Centenary Secretary for the Florida and South Georgia Conferences. We bespeak for him the fullest co-operation.

During the year Mr. J. T. Blalock has been made Conference Centenary Treasurer in the place of Roger Dodd.

The ten percent of the Centenary pledge payments which have been returned to your Conference Board of Missions has been used as follows: one half has been put year by year into the appropriation fund of the Board and used on appropriations for missions. The other half has been divided as follows: one half has been put into a Reserve Fund which your Board has been putting aside to supplement the assessments when the Centenary has ended. Twenty percent has been put into an "Emergency Fund" out of which to meet emerg· ency claims that arise during each year. And five percent has been put into a "Cultivation Fund" out of which we have helped each year to carry on our Conference Summer School.

'The total receipts from the Centenary ten percent has been $30,650.00. Of this amount $15,326.00 has gone into the "general appropriation fund", $7,663.00 into the "Reserve Fund", $6,161.00 into the "Emergency Fund" and been used to meet emergency cases each year, and $1,532.00 into the "Educational Fund" and been used to maintain the Summer School.

Respectfully submitted, W. F. DUNKLE, Chairman, C. E. GUTTERIDGE, Secretary.

We again call attention to the action of the General Conference setting aside this quadrennium as a great Evangelistic period, during which the whole church should set itself to bring to the feet of our Lord one million souls on profession of faith.

We urge all pastors to conduct a pre-Easter campaign. We re­quest all our Evangelists to put themselves at the disposal of our Presiding Elders for at least one month to be used in Evangelistic campaigns in unoccupied territory and mission fields.

And, we urge all our station pastors to put themselves at the disposal of their Presiding Elder for a like period of time and purpose

Respectively submitted, W. F. DUNKLE, Chairman, C. E. GUTTERIDGE, Secretary.

The Conference Board of Lay Activities desires to report at the closing of their first year that we feel that we have in a large measure achieved success, in carrying forward the plans made at the beginning of the year, in emphasizing evangelism, level columns of finance and Stewardship.

From the reports gathered, we find that about 60 per cent of our churches are organized in whole or in part. Number of services held by laymen since conference is in excess of a thousand. We have about sixty-five laymen within the bounds of the conference who hold services supplementing the pastors when called upon. The number of men assisting in any service or holding special services is about two hundred.

Vve have about twenty churches where services are held regularly by laymen. \Ve place our organization at the disposal of those in authority to the completion of the campaign for the Superannuate Endowment Fund.

We appreciate the assistance and co-operation of all our presiding -elders and pastors and feel that we can only succeed in this work by working with them.

We plan to more thoroughly organize the various churches, and thereby do much more effectively the work entrusted to us, and to continue to emphasize evangelism, level columns ·of finance and stewardship.

BOARD OF CHURCH EXTENSION

Tlie report of the Board of Church Extention was read by Howard Dutill, and adopted, as follows :

46 Florida Annual Conference

Report of Conference Board of Church Extension.

Dear Fathers and Brethren: Your Board of Church Extension gladly reports increasing ro­

quests for aid coming to it from the rural sections of our Conference, realizing that this means an awakening to the importance of sustaining and making permanent our work outside of our larger cities. Our grief is that we are unable to grant donations and loans to the full or the askings of these weaker charges.

The General Board reports the samr> difticulty racing tlwm-rP­quests for donations and loans far beyond the resources or the Board. They say, "We need a loan fund of not less than $5,000,000."

The Genm·al Board has passed a rule concerning buildings for which aid is requested which appears to us a needed qualification for granting sucl1 requests. \Ve herewith report it to you.

"The Secretary shall require the plans of all churches to which grants of either donations or loans are made to be submitted to tlw Department of Architecture of the Board of Church Extension for approval. Should the plans be unsatisfactory it is made his duty to suspend the payment of the grant until the plans are changed. to con form to the suggesticns of the Department of Architecture. A reason able charge shall be deducted from the grant for this servic0 rendered by the Department of Architecture."

The General Board reports that tht' plan for PropNty Protection has not been completed. When this Department shall ha vP been set up, duo notice thereof will be giv('n the Church.

The ass0ssment !'or the General Board for 1924 if' $4,530.00. The assessment for the Conference n~ard is $6.000.00. For the J. C. Ley Loan Fund $900.00.

EPWORTH LEAGUE BOARD

The report of the Epworth Leaguf> Board was re:·d by J. B. Harts field, and adopted by the ConfPrence, as follows:

M. E. Church, South

REPORT OF EPWORTH LEAGUE BOARD TO ANNUAL

CONFERENCE, IN SESSION IN BRADENTOWN.

47

Your Conference Epworth League Board begs leave to submit the l'ollowing report:

The past year has been o1w of continued progrt>ss both in new chapters organize<!, and in work accomplished. The present number of chapters is 305 with 9,031 members, representing a net increase for the year of 39 chapters. According to the report of the Epwort:c League Treasurer, there has been an increase or .approximately 300 per cent in collections from the local chapters over the year 1922. We call attention to the fact that there were increased contributions to the Epworth League Missionary Specials, which placed us third among the conferences of our Church in the total amount raised the past year. By the expiration of the Centenary period the Epworth League will have raised the entire amount.

We recommend in highest terms the splendid work by our field secretary, Miss Alice Crone, she having visited approximately 100 Leagues, assisted in four institutes and conducted four revivals.

Your Board is persuaded that the greatest task is in cultivating thoroughly the work already organized so that the gains of the past few years and the normal increase of the coming year may be fully conserved.

Perhaps the most valuable service being rendered by the Epworth League at this time is the training of a large group of leaders for our future Church. The finding and the developing of the necessary leadership to carry forward the work of the Church is one of our most important tasks. The Epworth League is the agency provided by our great Church for this purpose.

\\·e suggest that before any city union or local chapter begins the publication of a League paper, they be very careful to avoid .any possibility of incurring any financial obligations which might be a burden upon them.

w·e urge upon the pastors the importance of their attendance upon the meeting of the League Council. This is the place where the service of the pastor for .advice and help is essential to the best work being accomplished by the League.

Your Board has been honored at this Conference with the presence of Rev. James E. Ellis, a member of the General Board.

We appreciate the assessment of last year for League work and ask for a like sum for the coming year.

Signed, vV. J. CARPENTER, President, J. E.J. HARTSFIELD, Secretary.

BOARD OF CHRISTIAN LITERATURE

The report of the Board of Christian Literature was read by Mrs. P. N. King, Secretary and adopted by the conference, as follows:

Report of Committee on Christian Literature

Whereas, of the printing and reading of many books, periodicals, papers and phamphlets there is no end, and

Whereas, the reading of this literature is helping to mold and shape the destiny of our people and nation, and

Whereas, our country is being literally flooded with literature by all the isms of the age with the intent and purpose of leading away our people from their faith, and

Whereas, the world is full of unrest brought about thru the un­satisfied mind that is fed on modernism, libe~:alism and higher crit­cism, etc., which is insidiously and undermining our faith, coming as it does from those who are supposed to be informed, therefore be it

Resolved, First, that we do earnestly recommend much reading

48 Florida Annual Conference

and study ot the Bible, taking it with the faith of a little child as being the inspired Word of God that needs not to be explained .away, and

Second ,that we do condemn any word printed or spoken that tends to make of tB.e Bible anything other than the inspired Word of God. and say let his name be anatlwma who would thus lead astray, .and

Third, that in order to countt'ract this evil and subtle propaganda with wholesome religious literature \VP recommend the recognition of Rev. M. M. Lord, who otlers to make bond to our Publishing House. as our Colporter for a period or four Yt'ars, pledging him our moral support, and

Fourth, we recommend among others, tlw following books: Life of Thomas Coke~Bishop Candler -------------------- $1.50 What We Believe--Franklin N. Parker -------------------- .75 Methodist Evangelism~Geo. R. St('wart ____ ______________ 1.25 Beauty of God--G. C.Rector ________ ---------------------- 1.00 Aftermath Series--Bishop DuBose _____________________ each .25

Fifth, we recommend that the Florida Christian Advocate be put in the budget of every church; the Missionary Voice in every Metho­dist home; Nashville Christian Advocate to have as wide circulation as possible, urging each Presiding Elder to insist in his rounds that all stewards and Sunday School Superintendents take this General Organ of the Church. This alone if accomplished, would give Florida a minimum of 1666 copies and if all our Conferences would do like­wise would gin• us a circulation of 50,000 copi<'s instead of about 16,500.

Sixth. that we commend our Publishing House for their efficient management which has given an increase of $41,031 over that of the year 1922. We also wish to call attention to the fact that any publica­tion bearing the imprint "Cokesbury Press" is thP product of our own Publishing House.

Seventh, We recommend the appointment of Rt>v . .J. Edgar ViTilson as editor of the Florida Christian Advocate.

Respectfully submitted, 0. A. THROWER Chairman, MitS. P. ~. KING, Secretary.

BOARD OF TEMPERANCE AND SOCIAL SERVICE

Report No. 2, or the Board of TemperancP and Social Service was read by E. ·wat.t Smith, and adopted by the Conference, as follows:

REPORT NUMBER TWO

Board of Temperance and Social Service

To the Florida Annual Conference ol' the M. E. Church, South, Bradentown, Florida, December 8th, 1923.

We desire to submit the following report:

Social Service

1st . We endorse the Social Creed or our Church as containPd in our Discipline, paragraph 533, page 251, and urg~' uvon all our Preach­ers to keep the same constantly befon~ our IJP,~)ple,

2nd. We heartily endorse the findings or our commission on Temperance and Social Service and the Junaluska ConferPncP. August 1st, 1923.

3rd. We commend the Social Service work now bt>ing carried by our churches through Leagues, Sunday f'chools, \Voman's Missionary Societies and other agencies, and urge that wherever possible, this work be extended, remembering the words of our Master, saying: "I was hungry, naked, sick and in prison, and ye camce unto me."

5th. 'Ve urgP a continued agitation for a law that will gin· the

M. E. Church, South 49

Bible the largest possible place in our system of Public Education, calling attention to the fact that it has this place from the beginning.

6th. We are forever opposed to the legalizing of prize fighting in the State of Florida.

Temperance

We rejoice to note the vast improvement over the old open saloon days. Numbers of our children have never seen a saloon and with Beecher we can confidantly say: "My child will not be a drunkard."

We note with pleasure the fact that of five hundred of the largest business men in America, ninety per cent are in favor of the strict enforcement of the Pr.ohtbltion Laws as we now have them.

That our colleges and Universities are on record as supporting the Law.

That our President and the Governors of the several States in Conference assembled are urging a nation-wide campaign to make fully effective the Eighteenth Amendment.

We commend our Govornor, Honorable Cary A. Hardee for his manly stand on this question, and urge all of our people to co-operate with him.

We further urge that all our people give support to the Federal enforcement officials of our State and assist them in the campaign to free our State from the curse of the rum-runner.

We heartily commend the work of Dr. C. W. Crook, and the anti-saloon league, and urge that our Church continue to function through this organization. We endorse to the full, the law enforce­ment campaign of the League and the effort to secure dry officials, County, State and National.

We call attention to the danger of electing a semi-wet man for Governor of our State, and urge great caution.

With pleasure we reaffirm our faith in the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and give to it our fullest endorsement.

We recommend co-operation in Temperance Day in our Public Schools to the end that this day may become something more than a name.

W. A. MYRE1S, Chairman, E. WATT. SMITH, Secretary.

Moved by W. J. Carpenter, and duly seconded and carried, that a copy of the report of the Board of Temperance and Social Service be sent to the Governor of the State of Florida, one copy to the Speaker of the Souse of Representatives, and one copy to the Presi­dent of the Senate.

HOSPITAL BOARD

The report of the Hospital Board was read by L. E. Wright, and adopted by the conference, as follows:

Report of Hospital Board

Your Hospital Board has a good cause to plead, but not much to show for the year's work in the way of Methodist ministry to the sick.

The American people are investing largely in hospitals. They are putting $350,000,000.00 every year in new hospitals; $500,000,000.00 a :year, in hospital upkeep; and have total hospital investments of $2 .000,000,000.00. They treat 10,000,000 patients a year in these hospi­tals and 30,000,000 patients a year in the medical dispensaries.

The Roman Catholic Church has done a vast deal of work in this field and it is said that they own or control, sixty per cent of the hospital beds of this country.

The Methodist Episcopal Church, (North) has belted the Nation with hospitals and homes of mercy. The Southern Baptist Church

50 Florida Annual Conference

bas twenty-one hospitals, with a total investment of $8,000,000.00. Our Lord Jesus said, "Go preach and teach!" The same Lord who

said Go preach and teach; said also "Heal". Our own Church has two really great hospitals: The Barnes

Hospital of !St. Louis, and the Wesley Memorial Hospital at Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia. Five cities are building great Methodist Hospitals: Dallas, Texas; Ft. Worth, Texas; Houston, Texas; Memphis, Tennessee; and Montgomery, Alabama.

We believe that Florida ought to have a Methodist hospital, worthy of the Methodists of this rapidly developing State.

We suggest that the General Secretary visit our State early in the new year and make a presentation of this cause before represena­tive audiences in several leading cities, and that the Presiding Elders and pa~tors in the cities thus selected, co-operate to make the visit fruitful.

We believe our people will respond when the matter is brought forcibly to their attention.

We urge the presiding elders to urge the pastors to push the Golden Cross enrollment at once, as December is Golden Cross enroll­ment period.

We recommend that each pastor go back to his charge and put the Golden Cross Committee to work at once. Experience proves that the Golden Cross will appeal to all classes of our people, if they know what it is. The pastor is the moral leader here, as elsewhere. We must make it the fashion for every man, woman and child to go home from church and Sunday-school on Enrollment Day, with a Golden Cross button on.

Report No. 2, of the Orphanage Board was read by J. R. Cason, and adopted by the Conference, as follows:

Orphanage· Report No. 2

In submitting financial report we do so upon the claim of an effort to exercise reasonable economy in administration of the busi~ ness side of the Orphanage. Attention is not called to this fact upon the supposition that our people regard the money expended in the care of Orphan children as an undesirable burden. During the year there has been large increase in our Orphanage family, which calls for increased maintenance expense.

We desire to make plain that it has been the policy of the Board from the time of its organization as set forth in the "Constitution and By-Laws" to first make a Christian home for Orphan children, and second, to place children in private homes wherever suitable homes can be found. There is .a request that information be furnished the Board wherever and whenever there is a desire for the adoption of a child, with the assurance upon our part that every case will receive thorough consideration.

We desire to call special attention to the f.act that when the emergency arose for the building of a dormitory for little children, Calvin Brinkley, with the faithfulness, characteristic of his past de­votion, placed his credit behind the undertaking, and brought it forth to completion within a surprising brief period. The financial exhibit will show this building, besides furnishing, cost upward of Ten Thousand ($10,000.00) DoU.ars. The Board requested at its mid-year meeting that the cost of the building be prorated between the several districts and that the Presiding Elders give the Agent their co-opera­tion in the raising of this special fund.

We offer the following additional resolutions: We express to

M. E. Church, South 51

Brother Calvin Brinkley, our appreciation of the aid rendered, which made possible the erection of the Child's Dormitory, and pledge SJ.lCh co-operation as may be necessary to reimburse him for money thus voluntarily loaned the Church.

COMMITTEE ON SABBATH OBSERVANCE

The report of the Committee on Sabbath Observance was read by Vil. 0. Rencher, and adopted by the Conference, as follows:

Sabbath Observance

We, the Committee on Sabbath Observance, beg leave to submit our report.

We call your careful attention to the following findings: First-There is creeping into our Membership a laxity in the

observance of· God's command to "Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy", and a disregard of that section of our General Rules which enjoins that, all members continue to evidence their desire of salvation by avoiding the profaning of the day of the Lord, either by doing ordinary work therein, or buying or selling.

Second-Parents are failing to train their children in MAthodistic Sabbath Observance by abandoning the family pew, Kna permitting

52 Florida Annual Conference

their children to leave Sunday School and absent themselves from the regular Church Service. These selfsame parents do often fail to attend Sunday tSchool with their children.

Third-Here and there Methodists are absenting themselves and forgetting· the injunction to assemble ourselves on the day that com­memmorates our Savior's resurrection, because they can listen in on the radio to a broadcasted sermon, thereby losing sight or Church Fellowship.

Fourth-Throughout the state those who look upon Flo1 id:-t either as a field of commercial enterprise only, or as a gigantic plaj'-ground of the nation are, for pleasure or for gain deliberately violating 1h·~ statutory Sunday Laws of this Commonwealth with impunity.

In view of these findings, we, your Committee on Sabba[h Observ­ance do hereby :nake the following recommendations:

First-That the Scriptural and Disciplinary requirements of Sab­bath Observance be brought before the congregation of every dmrch at least one Sunday in each year.

Second-That Preacher-in-charge, Stewards, and Sunday School Officials bend every effort to the re-establishment of the family pew, and to the securing of child training in Sabbath Observance.

Third-That a committee on Sabbath Observance be elected at each point in. every charge by the first Church Confe.r0nce of the year, and that this committee be instructed to devote its attention toward securing a more perfect observance of the Sabbath within the Church, toward collecting data on Sabbath desecration in the community, and toward securing needed legislation, or toward bring­ing officers of the law to enforce those Sunday Laws .vhic<1 already exist.

For purposes of information and instruction, we append to thiJ report Section 5491-5495, Revised Statutes of Florida, which con­tain the Sunday Laws.

L. E. WRIGHT, Chairman, Wm. 0. RENCHER, Secretary.

Sunday Laws

BOARD OF FINANCE

The report of the Board of Finance was read by Frank T. 'Vilson, Secretary-Treasurer, and adopted by the conference, as follows:

REPORT NO 1

Report to the Annual Conference at Bradentown, December 1923. We your Board of Finance beg leave to submit the following report:

We have paid all appropriations made to the claimants at the last Annual Conference. Said payments being made quarterly in ad­vance on the first of January, April, July and October. Attached herewith we submit reprot No. 2, showing the name, address, years of service and the amount paid each by the Conference and the General Boards. This information being required by law, to be printed in the Conference Minutes.

With great regret vYe report that during the year our Beloved Brothers, E. F. Gates and T. F. Roland, have passed away. We aJso report that Mrs. May Rice having married Mr. C. F. Kemp, of Key West, is no longer dependent for support upon the Board.

The following widows have been added to the list of claimants by the death of their beloved husbands: Mrs. C. C. Cecil, Mrs. B. K. Thrower, and Mrs. T. F. Roland.

We respectfully call attention to the fact that through the gen­erosity of our people and because of the increased assessmnt, we were able to pay about 16 per cent more than last year. The amounts however are still pitifully small and inadequate. The average amount paid our 21 preachers being $257. The maximum being $400, and the minimum $100. The average paid our widows being $181 with a maximum of $300, and a minimum of $40.

The above facts are presented to the conference in the sincere hope that if there be a single preacher that has not made up his mind to throw his whole life and soul into the coming campaign in behalf of the "Forgotten Man", he may here and now resolve that he can and will perform his part of the task.

We also wish to call attention to the fact that while the GenerJ-1 Board has made it your duty to raise this endowment fuud, it has also ·specifically planned that your Board of Finance assist in this great work in every way possible. Therfore we invite you to call

54 Florida Annual Conference

upon us if we can furnish you with any information, or render you assistance in any possible manner during the campaign.

We report that your Publishing Agents have transmitted $744.68 profits on the business to us for distribution to the claimants, and we commend them for their good management and thank them in behalf of the claimants.

We call your attention to the fact that all books or other printed matter bearing the imprint Cokesburry Press, are the products of your Publishing House, and particularly worthy of . your consideration.

W. A. COOPER, President, FRANK T. WILSON, Secretary.

COMMISSION ON BUDGET

The report of the Commission on Budget was read by I. C. J"enkins, and with the passing of an amendment substituting $5,000.00 for $10,000.00 as appropriation for the Sunday School Board, was adopted by the Conference.

Resolution: A resolution not to require reports from Mission Pastors was offered by J. D. Major and C. C. Tyler, and was lost,

A resolution was offered by C. W. Mathison pertaining to work of District Stewards, and w.as lost.

Statistical questions were called and answered by the Secretary. (See General Minutes.)

At this point, I. S. Patterson was called to the chair, while the Bishop retired with the Presiding Elders.

Report of Bible Board: The report of the Bible Board was read by the Secretary of the Conference, and adopted, as follows:

The Bible Board beg leave to report: We are face to face with a new year with its problems, responsibilities and privileges. On November 2, 1922, the Board of Managers of the American Bible Society, on recommendation of its Budget Committee, and on advice Qf the Advisory Council, representing 23 denominations which had been in a two day's session with the Budget Committee, fixed a budget for 1923, and made appropriations for the various phases of the Society's work in all parts of the world to the amount of $1,160,777. This is an increase of about $40,000 over the budget for 1922, owing wholly to the estimate increase of receipts from sales and gifts on the foreign fields.

• The officers of the Society and the Agency Secretaries at home and abroad, present to the Budget Committee estimates and asking totaling $1,405,244 ..

Where and What Are the Needs?

In the Homeland

(1) Among the Colored People: It has been found necessary to create a special department to

meet this problem in the United States. The American Bible Society has taken it up in earnest with a full-time ,secretray in charge. The headquarters of this Agency is located in the Bible House, New York City, with sub-Agents in Atlanta, Georgia, Charlotte, N. C., Memphis, Tennessee, and Houston, Texas. These undertake to provide Scrip­tures for the 10,000,000 colored people scattered throughout the southern states. Out from these centers are operating 25 full-time colporteurs.

Taking knowledge of the tide of emigration whereby nearly 1,000,000 colored people have moved into the North during the last five years, a fifth sub-Agency has been established in Cleveland, Ohio, and efforts are being made to follow up the emigrants. These have largely settled in the industrial centers and in the large cities of the North. This today is one of the big problems confronting t~ Ameri­can Bible Society and demanding its most careful attention.

There is an imperative need for other sub-Agencies, especially in Greater New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. Only shortage of funds delays the putting into effect of these plans.

(2) '.rhe Eastern Agen<'y: 'l'his includes the state of New York, together with adjacent

58 Florida Annual Conference

portions oi' the New England states, not included in the territory or Auxilary Societies.

(3) The Atlantic Agency: Which includes the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Dela­

ware. The pecular problems in this Agency are chiefly connected with the vast industries and mining populations in which there are large numbers of foreign language speaking peoples.

( 4) The South Atlantic Agency: This Agency with headquarters at Richmond, Va., includes the

state~ of Virginia, \Vest Virginia. North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and E'lorida. This is an area of great diversities.

Trere are 8,000 churches in this territory, but very few adequately supplied with the Scriptures. 1'here are 4,125,000 mountaineers in this area; probably less than ten per cent have adequate church connection or religion instruction. There are 1,200 mining centers, lumber camps, turpentine stills, road construction camps, with forces of men who scarcely ever have come into personal contact with re­ligious workers.

There are 1,700 cotton mills, sawmills, factories, many of them with large forces of workers, located in this area.

A reasonably surveyed estimate is that there are in this territory, 150,000 families without Bibles.

With but very few exceptions the public schools throughout this entire area are open to the distribution of the Scriptures. A program whereby a portion of the Scriptures. might be placed in the hands of each child iseasily possible. About 40 nationalities an~ represented in the population of this Agency.

We might merely mention The Central Agency. The Northwest­ern Agency, Tho Southwestern Agency, the Western Agency and the Pacific Agency.

In Foreign Lands

The West Indies Agency, The Mexico Agency, The Caribbean Agency, The Upper Andes Agency, The Brazil Agency, The La Plata Agency, The China Agency, The Philippines Agency, The Japan Agency.

Europe

Sweden, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Italy, Russia, Bulgaria, Norway, Finland, Africa and the Islands of the Seas. When one stops to consider that the present budget is only about one-fifth of what the American Bible Society believes its re­sponsibilities to be, one realizes that those who believe in this pro­gram must support it with increasing generosity, if we are to reach the goal which we have set before ourselves and accomplish the purpose for which the American Bible .Society exist.

The Report of the Committee on Rules was adopted without read­ing, as follows:

The report of the Board of Directors of the Florida Conference Summer School was read and adopted, as follows:

REPORT OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL

As instructed by the Conference at its 1922 session, the Board of Directors of the Conference Summer School made provision for a Preachers Institute and Training School for the year 1923.

We elected Dr. R. H. Alderman president, and F. M. Williamson dean of the School, and gave them power to select a corps of instruc­tors and leeturers for the courses which we decided to offer.

The courses offered included two books in each year of the Con­ference Undergraduate courses, certain courses in the Standard Train­ing Curriculum of our Sunday ,School Board, courses in Mission Study, courses in the work of the Woman's Missionary Council, two post­graduate courses, and two series of special lectures. For these courses we had, Dr. Howard of Emory University, Dr. R. H. Bennett, Dr. Lois Rogers of Wesleyan College, and Dr. J. M. Gross.

Our attendance was not as large as we had hoped, but in view of the fact that we had no session in 1922, it was not to be expected that a large attendance would be registered. However, about 100 students enrolled for credit work and a total of 147 credits was granted, of which 44 credits were for undergraduate work, 96 for Sunday School, and seven for Mission Study work.

At a meeting of the directors it was decided to recommend that the Board of Missions, two from the Sunday School Board, two from

• M. E. Church, South 63

the Board of Education, two from the Woman's Missionary Society and three from the Conference at large; and the following were nomi­nated for your election, which the adoption of this report will elect, namely: A. H. Cole, Ira S. Patterson, R. I. Barnett, W. A. Cooper, L. D. Lowe, R. H. Alderman, W. P. Buhrman, S. D. Harris, T. L. Hendrix, Mrs. N. M. Sall~y, and Mrs. G. Murrell.

We recommend Dr. R. H. Alderman for President,. W. F. Dunkle, Vice President for 1924. We recommend that Florida Conference re­quest the General Boards to include Florida Conference Preachers Institute and Standard Training School in their series of such schools for 1924, and furnish such courses and instructions as they do for others and on same terms and conditions.

We recommend that the selection of the courses and faculty and lecturers for 1924 be left to the President and the Faculty Committee of the Board of Directors.

The aate for the next session is set for June 6, and we ask you to request the Board and the Elders to keep this date open for the Summer School. We also request that each pastor be urged to attend the School.

Respectfully submitted, W. F. DUNKLE, Chairman,

R. IRA BARNETT, Secretary.

•

M. E. Church, South 67

to a change of name, .and the report was adopted as amended as follows:

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE FLORIDA CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE

Our Conference paper still holds its place as one of the best of our Conference organs: so acknowledged by many who are familiar with a number of them.

The circulation of the paper has not, this year, reached as high a mark as last year, sixty-five hundred being high water mark this year, as against eight thousand last year. This has been due to the fact that a smaller number of churches, than last year, put the Advocate into the homes of all of their members by the budget system. Only seventy-six charges, this year, put the paper into all of their homes, as against one hundred and twenty last year.

It is to be greatly regretted that all of our churches do not adopt the budget system. It is the plan approved by our General Confer­ence, and most of the Annual Conferences. Experience has demonstrat­ed, also, that it is by far the best plan for circulating the Conference organ.

We believe that, if our pastors would press it upon their official boards at the beginning of the year, a much larger number could be induced to put the Advocate into .all their homes. The beneficial effects of doing so are so manifest that it is needless to enlarge upon them here.

Our Publishing Company has continued to maintain regularity and promptness of publication, and has rendered us service of great value. Whatever measure of success the paper has achieved, has been in no small degree due to their unfailing and generous co-opera­tion.

During the past year all of our Conference Claimants who ex­pressed a desire to so receive it, were supplied with the Advocate free of charge. We believe that the majority did so. It is our under­standing that the Publishing Company intends to follow the same liberal policy during the coming year.

Not much effort has been made this year to increase the Endow­ment Fund, owing to the extraordinary pressure upon our people to meet the hicreased assessments and various special calls. Two ad­ditional donations of stock of the Florida Methodist Publishing Com­pany have been made to this fund, making one thousand Dollars worth of this stock now held by your Trustees. We recommend that the efforts to increase this fund be continued, as far as possible.

We request that the Advocate assessment for the coming year be continued at the same figure as last year,-six thousand dollars.

We recommend the re-appointment of Reverend J. Edgar ,Wilson as editor and publishing agent.

We regret to report that Reverend D. B. Sweat, last year appointed Associate Editor, was compelled, by the state of his wife's health, to remove to another state. We desire to express our .appreciation of service rendered by Brother Sweat in this capacity; and to wish for himself and his wife God's best blessings in their new home and relation.

L. D. LOWE, Chairman, A. C. McCALL Secretary.

On motion by G. S. Roberts, report number two of the Sunday School Board was reconsidered. The report was amended by striking out all reference to employes of that Board and substitute in place thereof these words, "the Board will employ a conference Sunday School superintendent."

68 Florida Annual Conference

A motion was then made to reconsider the report of the com­misssion on Budget, which prevailed, and by vote of the conference the item assessed on the conference for Sunday School work was made seven thousand five hundred dollars ($7,500) instead of five thousand dollars.

A resolution was offered by W. A. Cooper, asking that the college of Bishops change date of the Florida Annual Conference to meet the first Wednesday after the second Sunday in December, which motion was laid on the table.

A resolution of thanks was offered by W. A. Cooper as follows: "Resolved that we give hearl.r thanks 1. To the Methodist churches and pastors of Bradentown, Manatee,

and Palmetto for their generous hospitality in entertaining us during this session of the conference.

2. To the secretaries for the faithful performance of their arduous duties.

3. To the newspapers of Bradentown and other cities of the state for their co-operation in giving publicity to the conference.

4. To all others who have contributed to our comfort, especially the ladies who have served us such bountiful dinners.

Signed, IRA tS. PATTERSON, W. A. COOPER.

The resolution was passed by a standing vote. J. B. Rooney was placed on the Board of Missions in place of

Vl. F. Dunkle, and E. L. Greer in place of J. N. Blackwell. A free-will offering was taken for Rev. James Parker, a Metho­

dist minister, who had come to this country from Australia and was reported in need.

The minutes of the morning session were read and approved. The Bishop read the appointments for 1924, the doxology was sung,

after which the conference adjourned sine die with the benediction.

MEMOIRS

CHARLES C. CECIL Charles C. Cecil was born near Newbern, Virginia, July 6, 1853,

of a long line of Methodist ancestors. He was converted when a boy under the influence of a sermon

preached by Rev. John Boring at his Grandmother's funeral. After spending sometime as a student at Emory and Henry CoL

lege he engaged in teaching for some years. While teaching within the bounds of the Memphis Conference he was licensed to preach under Rev. T. L. Boswell, P. E.

He was married to Miss Susie O'Kelly with whom he lived a happy and devoted life for forty-six years. He moved to Texas and then back to Virginia where we was used as supply p~stor in the Holston Conference until 1893, when he was admitted on trial.

This Conference sent him at this time into the coal fields or the great Elkhorn. in West Virginia, and it was here, perhaps, he attained the greatest or most efficient record of missionary zeal and labors of his entire life. As was his general record. he 'here built churches and parsonages and great multitudes came to Christ under his ministry.

In 1897, he located in order to take up the distinctive W<L'k (IJ'

an evangelist and in 1900 he came to Florida under the direction of the Christian Missionary Alliance.

He was readmitted into the Florida Conference, in 1900 and ser­ved the following charges: Parrish, Manatee, Tampa City Mission, St. Augustine and \Vas two years Conference Missionary Evangelist.

He was transferred to Holston Conference in 1910, and there did evangelistic work for three years, transferring back to Florida he served Mayo. Jacksonville City Mission, Zolfo, Homeland and Flem­ing Street, Key West.

His intense zeal, burning passion for souls, ardent love con­sumed his physical forces.; but the fires of grace and trials purified his heart and strengthened his naturally strong character.

He was vigorous in thought, clear in conceptions of truth, force­ful and convincing in utterance.

He preached with power and led many souls to Christ. His per­sonal trust was simple as that of a little child, and his faith in action, heroic.

His love was strong and abiding for he had entered the experi­ence of that "perfect love that casteth out fear,"

After his few· last years, on the wonderful opening on the great Okeechobee Lake, where he wrought most successfully, his strength gave way. He was forced to lay aside his dented sword and battle­scarred shield, and lie down to rest.

Surrounded by devoted wife and loving sons and daughters, friends and brethren. on November 6, 1923, he closed his weary eyes on earthly scenes and opened them on the glories of the "Home over There", and to see the"King in His Beauty."

THOMAS :B'LOYD ROLAND

Thomas :F'loyd Roland was born November 14, 1852, in McLane County, Kentucky, and died in Quincy, Florida, June 18, 1923.

He was converted at the age of fourteen, and at once began a life of service for the Master.

He was licensed to preach in 1881, and during that year married Miss Annie Owen, who thus became his life companion in service and trial, and doubtless will be in final reward. To this union were born three children, to whom the father left the legacy of a pure life and good name.

He was admitted on trial into the Louisville Conference in 1889, and was ordained at same session as local deacon by Bishop Hargrove. He was orftained Elder in 1894, by Bishop Duncan. For fifteen years he traveled in the Louisville Conference and transferred to Florida in 1905. Here he served on Circuits and Missions, some of which were poor and hard, but he went with uncomplaining loyalty and served with patient fidelity. He did not receive the gifts and emoluments of earth, but won the respect and love of his brethren, and the com­mendation of his Lord.

Brother Roland was a plain, earnest, godly man and preacher; and gave his life and best efforts to God and the Church.

His last work, while in the Superannuate Relation for several years, was as Chaplain in the State Legislature where his earnest prayers were an inspiration to our legislators.

Gentle, loving and trustful to the end he has gone to his reward and now rests from his labors.

BENJAMIN KEY THROWER

Rev. Benjamin Key Thrower was born in Newton County, Georgia, June 18, 1851. He was converted in the spring of 1867 and was licensed to exhort the following autumn. A few months after his conversion he felt the call to preach the gospel and began immediately to prepare himself for his life work. He was prepared for college in Quinn Academy, Conyes, Georgia, and after about two years in Emory College, he spent two years at Oglethrope University, from which he graduated in 1872. He was admitted on trial into the North Georgia Conference, November 29th, 1872 and at the request of Bish­op George F. Pierce, was immediately transferred to the St. Louis Con­fNence and stationed .at Kirkwood, Missouri. On October 12th, 1874 he was very happily married to Miss Laura S. Mitchell of Kirkwood, Missouri. Before his transfer to the Florida Conference in 1887, he served the following charges in the St. Louis Conference: Kirkwood Station, Labadie and Washington, Charleston, Bridgeton, and Eden. From Eden Station, on account of failing health, he went to Eureka Springs, Ark., where he served as pastor for one year. After return­ing to the St. Louis Conference, he was appointed to Bellefontaine, where he served for four years. In the Florida Conference, he served the following charges: Bartow, Orlando, Lake City, Gainesville, First

M. E. Church, South 85

Church, Tampa; Seffner, Southern College and Clearwater. Conduct­ing meetings in his own charge and assisting his brethren in evangel­istic S£!rvices during the cold winters, before transferring to Florida, superinduced physical conditions which resulted in partial deafness, that continued to grow worse and led finally to the request that he be released· from pastoral work, which he loved so much and in which he had led hundreds into the kiDgdom.

In 1915 he was appointed Field Agent for the Preacher's Relief Board and with his usual zeal and efficiency, addressed himself to the task of securing homes for the superannuated preachers. At least ten of the thirteen homes, stand as a monument to his untiring efforts. In this work that he loved so well, he continued, despite the requests of his noble sons and advice of many friends, until he literally exhausted his strength after more than fifty years of active service as an itinerant preacher, and the earthly tabernacle crumbled and the spirit ascended from his home in Tampa, March 21st, 1923, to mingle with the spirits of the just made perfect, in the home above.

He leaves to mourn their loss, a devoted wife, ·four sons, :F'rederick Mitchell Thrower; Lawrence L. Thrower; Hansen Randolph Thrower and Joseph Sale Thrower, besides a number of grandchildren and also one sister, Mrs. P. A. Schench, of Atlanta, Georgia, and one brother, Dr. 0. A. Thrower, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, Ft. Myers, Florida.

Our ascended Brother Thrower was an able preacher. At times reaching unusual heights and always effective. As a pastor he ex­celled. His sunny spirit, social qualities, unfeigned love for God's children and consuming zeal for the salvation of those who knew not the Lord, eminently qualified him for the duties of the pastorate. He was a man of profound religious convictions. He not only preached a high standard of Christian experience, but lived so that those who knew him best did not doubt that he enjoyed in his own soul, that perfect love that he commended to others.

Though almost forty years have rolled by since he threw his arm about me and welcomed me to membership in the St. Louis Con­ference, where even then, as a young man, he was referred to as the ",St. John'' of his conference. I still feel the impress of the love of this man of God. It is not strange that in Florida, where he spent more than thirty years in the work, he was the most beloved man in our ranks. This love was demonstrated when he was borne to his last resting place by the brethren of the conference, in the city of Tampa, and loving hands literally hid his grave with beautiful flowers.

The writer knew B. K. Thrower as he has known but few men. I have been near him when his kindly heart was almost breaking under bereavement, when duties stern and pressing taxed his strength, witnessed his loving devotion as husband and father, and have never known a more unselfish, guileless man. He was distinguished for hia ardent affection, his loyalty and abiding friendship and that tender­ness of heart that often dimmed his expressive eyes with tears of sympathy. "If treachery had come near him, it could have stood abashed in the presence of his truth, his manliness and his simplicity."

He has gone from us, but will continue to live in the affections of those who knew him. No one else can fill his place. Shall we ever again see his like?

EDWARD FRANKLIN GATES\

By William Frederick Dunkle

Edward Franklin Gates, the last of the Florida Conference pio­neers, is gone to the Better Land. He belonged to that race of men, peculiar to their time, which our country and our Methodism produced. These mighty men who wandered in deserts and in mountains, who dwelt in the dens and in the caves of the earth, who obtained a good report through faith, and by whom God provided some better things for us. We shall not see the like of them again. They were strangers and pilgrims in the eartll, as all their fathers were. But they had this testimony that they pleased God.

Of this immortal company was Edward Franklin Gates, a pionee1· Methodist circuit rider, a native sen of Florida. No man can here­after write the history or Florida, or the story of Methodism in Flori­da, and leave out of it Edward Franklin Gates. He lived within its bounderies all his days, the long span ~r eighty seven years. He saw it grow from a wilderness into a proud and prosperous commonwealth. He was a member of the Florida Annual Conference and saw his Church grow from a fe\v members into a host, and his conference advance from a small body into one of the larger conferences of Methodism with .almost fifty thousand members, with great congrega­tions, with stately houses of worship, with growing college, and with altar fires everywhere alight with the old time fire.

He saw his state pass through Indian wars, the war between the states, the Spanish American War, and the World War. In the first two of these he took part, the first as a private, the second as a chap­lain. He saw trails become Boulevards, the ox team supplanted by the automobile, the candle and the torch superceded by the electric lamp, the log cabin turned into modern palaces, the private school become part of a great public system, and the little red school house become a stately college. He saw the Iitle log meeting house turned into tall spires, and the church bell take the place of the old-time camp-meeting horh. He saw himself a chief actor in this great and moving drama.

But at last the years and the hardships of his immortal ministry did their slow work upon his iron frame. The aged warrior came home to go out no more. But even then he did not put his armour off or lay his weapon down. He preached whenever and wherever his strength and the occasion permitted.

He was admitted on trial into the Florida Annual Conference,.a1 Alligator (now Lake City) on the 24th day ot' September, 1856, and two years later was admitted into full connection. For nearly sixty­eight years he gave all there was of Edward Franklin Gates . to the Methodist ministry in the Florida Conference. He served it in almost

M. E. Church, South 87

every capacity, and always with honor, always with cheerfulness, always with the fidelity of a true pioneer circuit rider.

When but thirty years of age he was placed on a district that stretched from Micanopy to Key West. His home was the saddle, his wardrobe and library the saddle bag. His tent was the sky, his bed the pine:stravr, his roads were trails with neither ford nor bridge. None but a man of God who had forsaken all to follow Christ could have been sufficient for these things.

And through all the years his wife, the bride of a few days who came to join the conference with him, and who was cast in the same heroic mold, shared with him his privations, his hardships, his tears and his triumphs; shared them and gloried in them. To them were born six children, five sons and one daughter, all of whom are with us to this day-one of them is an honored member of the Florida Con­ference, the others are successful business men and good citizens, standing for the same high things for which their father stood.

When at last, time came for Edward Franklin Gates to lay aside his active ministry, he settled down in the ancestral home in Manatee, the home his father, Josiah Gates, the pioneer of the Land of Manatee, had built on the plantation he had cleared from the virgin wilderness into which he was the first white man to venture as a settler. Here, in ripe old age, loved and honored by his neighbors, and adored by his children, Edward Franklin Gates and his beloved wife, Euphemia Hubbard Gates, sat in the mellow glow of a setting sun and waited for the angels to come.

On the morning of December 20th, 1922, while she slept, the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof came without sound of hoof or noise of wheel and bore her unawakened away to the heavenly land and the home of her faith and dreams. Wha~ a glad surprise it must have been when she opened her eyes in the Heavenly World! She was the first to go. Hitherto the family circle had been u:n­broken through the long years. It is easy to fancy that she would have liked to await the day when her husband too could "fly away and be at rest." But even so, the days of his loneliness were neither many nor long, while he awaited the day of his departure, which came on the wings of the early morning, July 26, 1923.

The long pilgrimage was ended. He had at last come to the city which hath foundation whose maker and builder is God. And of him it may fittingly be said:

"E'en as he trod that day to God So walked he from his birth­

In simpleness and gentleness And honor and clean mirth,"

In the family burying ground in the cemetery in Manatee, along side his wife and his kin, we laid his feeble body away in hope of the general resurrection when the Son of God shall come and shall change these vile bodies of ours and fashion them like unto his own glorious body, according to the working of his might whereby he is able to subdue all things unto himself.

88 Florida Annual Conference

IN MEMORY OF MRS. EUPHEMIA HUBBARD GATES

In the home of culture, surrounded with a comfortable share of this world's goods, and above all in value to a human soul, in the cradle of Methodism and the lap of piety, was born Euphemia Hubbard Gates. Born, as she was, with a love for the beautiful, a talent for music, a retentive memory, an open mind and an understanding heart, her life was a fine development of these high endowments. St. Marys Georgia, on the St. Marys River where she was born and St. Marys Academy where she was educated were just such surroundings as would bring into being the fine qualities displayed in her young life.

·while in the bloom of womanhood she married a young Methodist preacher just from Emory College. Handsome and talented were both, and into the field of the Florida Ministry they went with the dews of morning upon their brows, and faith. hope and love filling and thrilling their souls; while in spirit and in voices remarkably tuned to the highest notes of song and eloquent speech, they started upon their life's journey of sixty-seven years of married life and Methodist Ministry. The state was madt• rich through their self renunciation af> they became rich in the treasures of the Kingdom of God. Our Mother was as inspiring in the singing of the songs of Zion as her husband was girted in pulpit eloquence, and if we had lost the last number or our hymnbook, she, from memory, could ha,-e produced essentially our hymnology in words and tunes.

Next to music, flowers were her delight. She knew tlwir names and their nature, and how to nurse them to their most beautiful blooms. She was a reader of all best literature in the Englisi1 langu­age. and could have been numbered among the literary of the south.

But above all, and of far reaching significance, she was the mother of five sons and one daughter, all now Jiving. As a mother she im­parted to her children something of her gifts, and none of them have t>ver shamed the noble name she bequeathed to them . During her husband's long absence, while serving the Tampa and Gainesville Districts, she gathered them around the family altar, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and taught them the language of prayer, and ctedicated one of her sons to the Methodist Ministry her works do follow her, and she being dead, ye1 speaketh.

Her son, REV. E. J. GATES,

Dec(-'mber 4th, 1923. P. E. Barto\\' District.
