Mr
tence, and there was shouting in
the congregation. Pr. Morrison is
bringing some of the stror.gest ser
mons that have ever been heard in
Lubbock, and it i exported the
crowds are ncrcning as it becomes
noised abroad the greatness of this)
man. Had it not been for the fair
that has kept many people away, the
house would not have held the
crowds thnt are anxious to hear him,
and it will be necessary for the
people to come early Sunday if they
expect to get a seat in the main
auditorium. Some of the other
churches are going to turn their
congregations loos to attend the
closing service of the conference,
and the Methodist people ore malt
ii g every preparation to take care
of them when they come.
The conference will close Sunday
night, and Monday the preachers and
delegates will return home.
Lubbock was unanimously chosen
as the next meeting place for the
Pistrict Conference, which will like
ly be conducted much on the name
order as this, which is a departure
from the old way, and in proving a
great improvement on the regular
form of the services.
Lubbock .Methodists as well as a
number of others in the other
churches, have taken enre of the
delegates in grand stylo, and they
have nothing but the het commend
ation for the manner by which they
lone bun entertained A number
of people who volunteered to open
the doors of their homes for the
entertainment of the conference del
egates were not given an opportun
