Bitter thoughts towards an other never sweetened any man’s life. The longer the dog’s day, the shorter the cat’s night. The amount digested and not the amount eaten gives the horse strength.

BACKS FAIRBANKS. Fort Wayne. Ind., Mar. 30—The outstanding feature today of the North Indiana M. E. conference here was the ovation given to Charles W. . Fairbanks this afternoon. He was introduced to the conference as "our ■ candidate for the presidency.” This was the signal for tremendous enthusiasm and prolonged applause. In his address, Mr. Fairbanks de'dared that there will be far greater need for Methodism in the years to iiome than there is now. He devoted most of his address to f etliodist hospital in Indianapolis, of which he Is president. He declared that hospitals are doing as much for Christianity as any other activity of the hurch. He mentioned his trip to the Orient and asserted M. E. hospitals there are doing more than any other agency of the church. Mr. Fairbanks was a guest of Judge W.' G. Vesey while in this city. Preachers Resist Plan. Considerable friction developed in the morning at a meeting of Preachers’ Aid society when the board of managers proposed a campaign tp raise $250,000 du/ing the next twelve months. $1 to be donated by the preachers to every $5 donated by he laymen. Many of the ministers strenuously objected to this plan. The Rev. M. L. Edwards of Misha'w»ka declared. “There is not a minster in this conference, I dare say, who does not donate as much as any nillionaire member of his congregation. The preachers are imposed tnftn. The Rev. David T. Stephenson of Decatur also spoke againet the nlan. The proposal was presented by he Rev. Cyrus U. Wade, endowment secretary of DePauw university, aftd was endorsed “by him. Action on the natter was postponed until 10 o’clock Saturday morning. In the evening session of the con'erence in the Wayne Street church the anniversary of the formation of he Sunday school board of the churck was observed. The Rev. M. Stephenson presided at this gathering and he principal address was made by he Rev. W. S. Bovard. Two Seek Next Meeting. Huntington and Warsaw are seeking the next session of the conference. Huntington was a contender n the last two meetings and its delegates assert they will be successful this year. The Rev. R. J. Wale, superintendent of the Goshen district; the Rev. C. E. Line, superintendent of the Muncie district, and the Rev. J. A. Beatty, superintendent of the Fort Wayne district, delivered their reports of the year’s work. All three reported increases in membership and contributions for a year. The Rev; J. C. White of P.lkhart is being mentioned as a possible successor to either the Rev. Mr. Line as superintendent of the Muncie district, or the Rev. Mr. Beatty as superintendent of the Fort Wayne district. o QUESTIONS FOK MISSIONARY MEKT. “A Nation at School,” the opportunity in China—will be the study of the W. M.
