Morrison) The Illinois conference of the Methodist Episcopal church is nearing its centennial. The 97th annual session will Decatur Wednesday, Bishop Nicholson of the Chicago area, presiding Decatur has been the host to this bodv of Christian men five times and this coming session will be its sixth opportunity to greet the same body in its week's session. In when it was but 3 4 years old. Bishop Levi Scott, pre- church, siding, the Decatur folks bade the Methodist host hearty welcome. So too in 1 8 Bishop Jonefc, presiding.

In 1 S72. Bishop Thomas Bowman, president, the 49th session convened at Decatur. At Chapel in 1887, with Bishop Cyrus D. Foss in the chair, was held the C.41h annual session. Then in the beautiful first church, with Bishop McDowell presiding, with an interval of years, the 89ih session was held 1 I 2.

Bloonpngton has had the conference 7 times. Springfield 9 times, while Jacksonville has acted as host 12 times. If. as nounced. Jacksonville invites conference to hold its 98th session in 1921 celebrating one hundred years of local Methodist history.

hat session will be the 13th. It is a propitious number. Two places are desirous of the centenary session in 1 823. Bloomington and 1'rbana (Trinity). Bv tint time it is hoped to have completed the church with a seating ca pacitv of 2000.

If held the week before the university opens ac- commodations may easily be ho cured for the conference membership. I nion of the Two Conferences This leads up to another ques- i lion, which is before the confer- ence concerning the union of Illi- i ois with the Central Illinois con- I ference. For this union an al most unanimous vote was given Charleston last year. Since time a through a questionnaire has been taken, and a i that soutnern Illinois would in securing a large slice off of the southern edge of this conference, depriving Illinois con- ference of such cities as Paris, i 'charleston, Mattoon. Shelbyvllle, I Marshall and other vigorous (charges, that the vote was re- versed ami stood 4 to 1 against any disturbances of boundary were, all but one, years following war, 1778 (after the Revolutionary war); 1814.

the second war with Great Britain; 1 84 7, after the Mexican war; 1861-2-3, during the Civil war; 1881 (no war); 1899, the Cuban war, and 1919, the World War. To maintain the high level, secured by the Centenary in material gifts, a campaign of a spiritual nature was undertaken. Illinois conference has reported an average of 1000 accessions to the convene at church, per district, during the Sept. 8 th, I year now closing, besides coming the losses occasioned by death and removals (which annually exceeds 1000). It would not be surprising if the total would reach 8.000.

This task has not been an easy one. The "Restless Age" is upon us. It has affected all departments of the world's work not sparing the The Retired Minister and the Two questions will receive consideration at the approaching session of Illinois conference of utmost importance to the beguiling work of the church, and of the closing years of the most effective agencies, namely: The colleges and the retired ministers. That each will receive due consideration has already been ensured in the meetings held during the year, by those in leadership. In February a joint session of the commission on conference claimants campaign for endowment i funds, the conference board of the trustees, the board of stewards and the board of control of the Aid society, met at Springfield and considered the i matter of the paramount claim of the retired minister.

After careful consideration of 'all resources, as well as claims, the proposition to pay $20 per year for each year of service up to years was agreed upon. In order to do this, funds that have been accumulating for four past and are on interest, are to be released and the interest used for annual disbursement. Added I to firs a 10 per cent amount of the salary of the preacher in each I charge is to be asked instead of the usual per cent of recent years. Other features of the jb port will make it possible be Illinois conference to measure up to 2 T. other conferences In Meth- jodism to meet in full measure the the retired minister or his widow, or orphan children.

The agitation concerning Illinois Wesleyan Fniversity and its removal is gradually settling In view of the action of I Bloomington to respond to the I needs of he institution, the adjustment of the execulve mittee of the board of trustees.

However, no further action, immediately, is contem- i plated.

I This, however, may be done, as I suggested by the district superin- 1 tendentH of both Central and 111 i I nois, held at Peoria last June, to- nether with the members of the educational committee of each i conference, to-w it: Kach confer- i ence appoint a commission of 21 members to study and report up- i the question of hospitals, chil- 1 i homes, colleges and super- januate funds, of each confer- ence, with a view of placing before the conference the facts in regard to the advisability of sim 1 pi.lying and yet making more ef- i fective all those agencies by the two conferences. The centenary session of Illinois conference, in view of this movement may go to Bloomington. The Work The continuation service of the I cetit( nary, which was celebrated in 1919. and resulted in a pledged subscription of 1 15.000,000 for 1 Honic and Foreign Missions and i war relief, was of an evangelistic character. Bishop Blake now in Paris, his I Episcopal residence, has made public his studies of the statistics of Methodism which showed that nine times Methodism suffered a 1 decline in membership.

Appointments As usual the expectation of few changes in pulpit supply is fol- lowed by the report of those who have canvassed the affair is that, this presidential year, many preachers will lose a vote on account of removal.

Last year of appointments there were 1 changes Then when it is considered that only 8 4 perse- vered to second year, there i were only tJ2 who made up the rest of the conference( or the I supplies I for a longer than the second year One, Dr. C.

This sets the conference guessing whether Shipp of Bloomington district, who has finished six years on that district, will be re-appointed or some one else named for the places. There is a strong sentiment in the conference against the long continuance of such administrator. ated by Peter Cartwright and followed by Peter Akers.
