These resolutions were quite thorough! y
discussed. Many felt unwilling to make
the change suggested in resolution 3, but
the chairman explained that if we con-
tinued sending one-third of the tithe the
coming year to the Mission Board we
would be obliged to cut down the pres-
ent working force. ~ Resolution 6 was at

. Resolution 13 was perhaps the most
perplexing. It was presented in differ-
ent forms, but was finally passed as
recorded. Co ,
At. our last annual
thought that it would be best to call our
Conference The Eastern Colorado Con-
ference, but no definite action was taken.
The Conference this year voted to con-
tinue the old name, The Colorado Con-
ference, and some slight changes were
made in the constitution, the principal
one being to define the boundary lines,
as follows: That the Colorado Confer-
ewce shall include all that part of Colo-
rado east of the Continental Divide.
