the old days the meetings of the old methodist conferences in particular were an event in the community fthc fatted calf was killed the spare bedroom was dusted and the parlor aired out what an horsur

paper after the delegates had departed once published a cartoon of two chickens sticking their heads out from under a barn and repeating the familiar lines of an did methodist hymn often sung it conference opening and we are still alive to see each others faces it was equally an event for the del egates in the days before automobiles travel was difficult and expensive ministers could not afford to travel far from their circuits a visit to the city billeted in some fine city home with an opportunity of inspiration from leaders of the church and to meet again old church and college friends meant more than it does today and now the old custom like so many jood old ontario customs will likely go into the discard with this rapidly changing world homes axe smaller spare bedrooms are
