NORTHMINSTER HYMN.
THE WORLD FOR CHRIST.
By the Rev. Robert P. Kerr, D. D.
"The world for Christ!" the angels sing, As swift from star to star they fly ; The world he died to save is his, Give glory to our King most high.
The world for Christ! the martyrs join, His wide dominion to proclaim ;
The King of angels is our king, All laud and honor to his name.
The world for Christ ! in countless host, The saints that throng the courts above.
With ceaseless praises, day and night. Forever sing his wondrous love.
The world for Christ! let saints on earth,
His mercy tell to every soul, 'Till mortals all shall own him Lord,
From sea to sea, from pole to pole.
The world for Christ! from heaven to earth, From earth to heaven his glory rings ;
While sons of men and shining hosts, L'uite to crown him King of kings.
History of Northminster Church.
By Rev. ROBERT P. KERR, D. D., Pastor.
HISTORY of the church of God, or any part of it, for any period, is but a review of God's kindness to his people in connection with their attempts to serve him in extending and build- ing up his kingdom. Now that a quarter of a century has passed since our church was founded, it will be profitable to look back over that period to see how, from a small beginning, the organization then effected has grown to its present size and importance, that we may return thanks to God for his great mercies, and with united voices say, Ebenezer, hitherto hath the Lord helped us.
Like the church at Philippi, the first Christian congregation organized in Europe, our church grew out of the prayers and work of consecrated women. Mrs. Peyton Harrison, Miss Jane M. Cross, and a few others, having become convinced that there was a promising opening for a Presbyterian work in the northern portion of Baltimore, determined that a Sabbath-school should be established in that section of the city. Their efforts were crowned with success, and on February 17, 1878, a school was organized in Cowman's Hall at the southeast corner of Maryland Avenue and Boundary Avenue, or what is now North Avenue. Mr. William B. Phillips was elected as the first superintendent. Mr. Phillips proved himself to be an indefatigable worker in the Sunday-school not only, but also in the church, and to him was largely due the organization, some years afterwards, of the
NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
Waverly Sunday-school and Presbyterian Church. Our school rapidly increased in numbers, and it soon became evident that a regular church would grow out of the enterprise. Early in 1879 steps were taken to secure a permanent location, and to build a chapel.
Mrs. Peyton Harrison purchased for $12,000 and donated to the enterprise the fine lot on which the church now stands, at the southeast corner of St. Paul Street and what is now North Avenue. On April 28, 1879, the following gentlemen connected with the Presbyterian congregations of the city were elected trustees : W. W. Spence, Rev. Dr. J. C. Backus, John L. Reed, W. B. Phillips, John C. Barkley, E. B. Hunting, E. H. Perkins, Jr., J. Franklin Dix, Henry D. Harvey, Edmund G. Lind, Albert A. Hasson, and Richard K. Cross. They became incor- porated April 30, 1879, under the name and title "The Boundary Avenue Presbyterian Church." This charter was recorded in the charter record of the city May 13, 1879. Article VI. of the charter declared that "the Boundary Avenue Presbyterian Church of the city of Baltimore shall forever remain a Presbyte- rian Church in doctrine, government and worship, in accordance with the standards of the Presbyterian Church in the United States ; that is to say, the Confession of Faith, and the Larger and Shorter Catechisms, and in ecclesiastical connection with the Presbytery of Baltimore."
Subscriptions were soon obtained for the erection of a chapel, at the rear of the lot and facing St. Paul Street. The corner- stone was laid by the Rev. J. C. Backus, D. D. The sermon for the occasion was preached by the Rev. J. S. Jones, D. D., and prayers were offered by the Rev. William S. Plumer, D. D., and the Rev. Peyton Harrison, D. D. The chapel was completed
NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
by March, 1880, at an expense of $18,311.88, $5,000 of which was contributed by the Presbyterian Association of P>altimore. But before this the Boundary Avenue Presbyterian Church had been formally organized by a committee of Baltimore Presbytery on the 17th of February, 1880, in Cowman's Hall, where the Sabbath-school had been conducted for two years. The com- mittee of Presbytery to organize the church consisted of Rev. J. G. Gibson, Rev. J. S. Jones, D. D., Rev. Andrew B. Cross, and Elder J. Farris Moore.
The following eighteen persons entered into the organization, presenting their certificates of dismission from other churches:
John M. Cross, from Central Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Louis Giese, from Central Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
James M. Huggins, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.
Mrs. Jane E. Huggins, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.
Miss Mary E. Huggins, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.
Richard K. Cross, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.
Miss Jane M. Cross, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.
John C. Barkley, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.
Mrs. Ida V. L. Barkley, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.
Miss Eliza Bride, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.
Wm. B. Phillips, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.
Edward F. Arthurs, from Franklin Street Church, Baltimore.
Francis Hutchinson, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Mrs. Francis Hutchinson, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Miss Elizabeth P. Rivers, from Presbyterian Church, Smyrna, Delaware.
Miss Marian P. Jones, from Presbyterian Church, Smyrna, Delaware.
Mrs. Charlotte S. Cross, from United Congregational Ch., Newport, R. I.
Messrs. William B. Phillips and Richard K. Cross were at the same meeting elected elders, and Messrs. J. C. Barkley, Edward F. Arthurs and Allen Marquand were elected deacons.
8 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
The next step was to elect a pastor for the flock thus formed, and under the evident guidance of the Holy Spirit, the Rev. George Tybout Purves, of Wayne, Delaware county, Pa., was unanimously called, a selection which proved a happy one indeed for the church and pastor.
While the chapel was in course of erection and services were still held in the hall, one of the Sunday-school scholars, Arthur Corbin Powell, died, the first one ever called away from our school to the courts on high. In the Sunday-school room of the new chapel his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William M. Powell, placed to his memory a beautiful stained-glass window with this in- scription :
In Memory of
ARTHUR CORBIN POWELL,
The First Member of this School Called to Jesus.
November 15, 1879.
The chapel was formally dedicated to the worship of God, March 7, 1880, the Rev. J. C. Backus, D. D., offering the dedi- catory prayer, and the Rev. J. S. Jones, D. D., preaching the sermon. At the evening service of the same day Mr. Purves preached his first sermon as pastor.
On Tuesday evening, March 16, 1880, Mr. Purves was formally installed, the Rev. J. T. Leftwich, D. D., presiding; the Rev. J. P. Campbell, D. D., preaching the sermon; the Rev. J. S. Jones, D. D., delivering the charge to the pastor, and the Rev. W. J. Gill the charge to the people.
The next day, the 17th of March, Mr. Richard K. Cross was installed ruling elder. Mr. Phillips having been already or- dained and installed by the committee of Presbytery on February

17th, and Messrs. J. C. Barkley and E. F. Arthurs were ordained and installed deacons.
On the same day the first meeting of the session was held, Mr. Purves presiding, and Mr. Richard K. Cross was elected clerk, which position he has faithfully and acceptably held up to the present time. At this first meeting of the session the following persons were received into the church :
On Confession. William Major Powell. Miss Laura Belknap Hunting. Clarence Hays Hunting.
On Certificate. Mrs. Ann C. Arthur, from Franklin Street Presbyterian Church, Baltimore. Mrs. Eliza Ferguson, from Franklin Street Presbyterian Church, Baltimore. Miss Jane Coney, from Franklin Street Presbyterian Church, Baltimore. E.EUBEN Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore. Mrs. Sarah L. Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore. Douglas Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church Baltimore. Mrs. Mary E. Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore. Edward L. Thomas, from Brown Memorial Presbyterian Church, Baltimore. Mrs. Bettie S. Thomas, from Brown Memorial Presbyt'n Ch., Baltimore. William S. Cross, from Brown Memorial Presbyterian Church Baltimore. Mrs. Emma B. Powell, from the Associate Reformed Church, Baltimore. Miss Mary R. Patterson, from the United Presbyterian Ch., Baltimore.
This was a happy and hopeful beginning of the work of the new church, and the sequel abundantly justified the hopes of those who had given themselves to the sacred enterprise.
The first of all the working societies of the church was the Woman's Aid Society for general church work, but afterwards turned into a missionary society for Home and Foreign Mis-

sions. It was organized November 3, 1880, with twenty-three members, which number was increased to forty-three before the year was out. The first officers were Mrs. Alexander F. Mur- doch, President;' Mrs. B. F. Stead, Vice-President; Miss Alexina Crawford (afterwards Mrs. WilHam B. PhilHps), Secretary, and Mrs. Reuben Foster, Treasurer. Mrs. Foster has held the office of Treasurer without intermission to the present day, giving heart and hands to the great work of the Society. The interest of the members of this Society has never flagged, and they have done a grand work for the cause of God at home and abroad by the money they have given themselves and col- lected from others, as w^ell as by their prayers and the inspiration their example has given to the whole congregation.
Mr. Purves' ministry was most acceptable, and the attend- ance at the services constantly increased, while the membership was steadily enlarged by additions on confession and certificate. In less than five years the communicant roll had grown to 219, and that of the Sabbath-school to 250. Mr. Purves was uni- versally beloved, and the attendance upon his ministrations crowded the chapel to its utmost capacity.
In January 24, 1883, Mr. John L. Reed and Mr. E. B. Mallory were elected ruling elders, and on February 24th Mr. Mallory was ordained, and he and Mr. Reed were installed.
On the 5th of October, 1883, the Rev. W. A. Jones was authorized to engage a hall at $5.00 per week for services at Waverly. This was the beginning of the Waverly Presbyte- rian Church.
Towards the close of the year 1883 it became manifest that the main edifice of the church must be built, and on December 5th, at a congregational meeting, a committee of seventeen was
NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH. II
appointed, with authority to raise funds, and as soon as they had secured $25,000 to proceed to the erection of the church. The congregation was thoroughly canvassed, and handsome contributions were also received from generous Presbyterians in other congregations of the city, among whom were the Rev. J. C. Backus, D. D., Mr. George S. Brown and Mr. W. W. Spence.
On June 4, 1884, the corner-stone of the present magnificent marble building was laid by the pastor, Mr. Purves. The cost of the building, ground, organ and manse was as follows :
The lot of ground on the southeast corner of Boundary Avenue
and St. Paul Street, donated by Mrs. Ella M. Harrison, $12,000.00
The strip of ground adjoining on the east, bought from the Balti- more City Passenger Railway Company, 1,638.88
The chapel, completed on April 8, 1881, cost, 18,311.88
The church, completed July 15, 1885, cost, 57,99377
The church organ, built by George Jardine & Son, of New York,
including the water motor, 3,000.00
Total cost of church, chapel and organ, $92,944.53
The manse, bought April 29, 1895, No. 1808 St. Paul St., and cost, 7,528.06
$100,472.59
The building committee, every member of which cheerfully gave themselves to the great work committed to them, consisted of Messrs. John Murdoch, Reuben Foster, Oliver Hoblitzell, Richard K. Cross and John L. Reed.
Mr. Murdoch was the indefatigable chairman, and by reason of his professional skill and taste, as well as by his devoted interest in the work, he did a great service to the church, and one that has been highly appreciated. From 1886 to this day
1^2 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
Mr. Murdoch has been also chairman of the Executive Com- mittee of the Board of Trustees, having charge of the church property, and all repairs and improvements.
To Mr. John L. Reed fell the laborious task of treasurer of the building fund, and afterwards of the manse fund, and he did his work not only with energy and zeal, but also con amove, and he has done also all other work that has come into his hands, for the church, and it has always been evident that he loves the very stones of the house of God, and takes pleasure in the dust thereof, as he does also all that pertains to the interests of our beloved Zion.
On the 1 8th of March, 1885, Messrs. William M. Powell, Alvin N. Bastable, and Alexander H. Fields were elected dea- cons.
The church building was dedicated March 22, 1885, the Rev. George T. Purves preaching in the morning, and the Rev. A. A. Hodge, D. D., of Princeton, N. J., in the evening. This was followed by a union service on the next Tuesday, at which addresses were made by the Rev. J. T. Leftwich, D. D., and others.
On February 8, 1882, Mr. Reuben Foster was elected one of the Board of Trustees, and, with the exception of a brief interval, has been a member ever since that time. On February 14, 1883, he was elected to the office of chairman of the Board of Trustees, and again on March 23, 1886, and has filled that important office continuously since, with such ability, devotion and tact as to win and hold the respect and love of all the people.
Mr. Purves, whose pastorate had been greatly blessed to the increase of the church, in numbers, financial strength, and to its growth in grace, having been called to the pulpit of the First

Presbyterian Church, of Pittsburg, Pa., resigned his office on June 2, 1886, and the congregation rehictantly assented, not feeUng it right to oppose their pastor's convictions of duty. But the people whom he had served so acceptably and success- fully have never ceased to hold him in loving remembrance.

NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH. 1 5
On the 24th of March, 1888, the Stephenson Missionary Society of Gleaners was organized for the younger girls of the church. Their first officers were :
Miss Lucy Crawford^ President.
J. BuRKLOE Brown, Secretary.
A. D. Seeman, Assistant Secretary.
R. Carll Foster, Treasurer.
C. Reynolds Bedford, Assistant Treasurer.
The Junior Christian Endeavor Society was organized November 23, 1890, with the membership of twenty-five. Rev. William Durant, D. D., and Miss Florence Stratton (Mrs. Weaver) were elected superintendents. The name of the society was the "Westminster Christian Endeavor Society of Boundary Avenue Presbyterian Church." The object of the society was the training of the children in deeper spiritual life, and more active Christian work. The names of the superintendents from the time of organization to the present are as follows : At organization —
Rev. William Durant, D. D., Miss Florence Stratton,
Miss Virginia Armiger, Miss Isabella Carswell,
Miss May Haughwout, Miss Hattie A. Steuart.
The present superintendents are : Miss Roberta Carswell, Miss Hattie A. Steuart.
Dr. Durant also established the "J^i^t Meeting" of the Session, Deacons, and Trustees, February 20, 1891, meetings to be held on the first Monday in February, and on the second Monday in October annually, and at other times when called by the Moderator for conference in the interest of the church.
l6 NORTHMINSTER PrESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
At the February meeting, young men, communicants of the church, are selected to assist in promoting the welfare of the church, in connection with the Session, Deacons, or Trustees, as may be desired, and for conference, and to act as ushers at the services of the church. This "Joi^^ Meeting" has been a means of great good in the work of the congregation, in bringing all the officers into intimate relations, and in acquainting them with the condition of "affairs in each board, thus increasing the general interest and promoting unity of action.
Mr. George B. Hunting is, and has been from the beginning,^ the Permanent Clerk of the "Joint Meeting," evincing great tact, faithfulness and courtesy in the administration of his office. Mr. Hunting has also been for many years secretary of the Board of Trustees, and in this position as well he has shown himself a thorough man of affairs, and a devoted servant of the church.
On the 1st of March, 1888, Wesley G. Fortune was ap- pointed sexton of the church, which position he still holds, as he has been, during the long period of seventeen years, a faithful "doorkeeper in the house of the Lord," and care-taker of the building, with uncommon faithfulness, efficiency and courtesy, endearing himself to every fnember of the congregation, and to all of the pastors under whose administrations he has served.
On the 28th of March, 1888, Mr. Hiram H. Taylor was elected treasurer of the Board of Trustees, and to this day he has filled that delicate and laborious office with such fidelity, courtesy and tact as to merit and receive the gratitude and affec- tionate regard of all the members of the congregation.
Mr. Henry D. Harvey, a beloved member of the church, died 2 1 St December, 1889, and left by his last will to the Boundary

Avenue Presbyterian Church the sum of $2,000 for the Hbrary of the Sabbath-school, and the sum of $1,000 to the church for the reduction of the debt, or to the general purposes of the church. Both of these bequests were very much appreciated, and came to us in a time when the church needed the assistance, and they were an inspiration towards the removal of the debt of $8,000 which rested upon the church, which was afterward all paid, leaving the church and manse entirely free from debt.
The $2,000 left for the library was invested by the Board of Trustees in "irredeemable ground rents," yielding the sum of $124 annually, which income is applied by a committee of the Sabbath-school in purchasing new books for the library, and in keeping the old books in good repair, thus maintaining the library handsomely.
The Sabbath-school had a new library room prepared, with new shelves and cases for the reception of the new books, and placed the inscription on the door, Harvey Memorial Library.
January 25, 1891, Messrs. J. Hume Smith and T. Melville Prentiss were installed ruling elders in the church. Both of these elders served the church faithfully, greatly honored and loved, until they were called away to their eternal rest, Mr. Prentiss on September 29, 1901, and Mr. J. Hume Smith, September 5, 1904.
Dr. Durant, the scholarly preacher and polished Christian gentleman, as well as indomitable worker and wise organizer, served the church, greatly beloved and honored, until May 9, 1892, when he resigned his charge, and the congregation were left again without an under-shepherd.
On the 17th of October, 1893, the Rev. Frank E. Williams was called to the pastorate, and was installed December 20, 1893.
l8 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
Mr. Williams was quite a young man, but full of zeal, and gifted with fine talents as a preacher and pastor, and he threw himself into the work with great earnestness and enthusiasm. The church continued to grow in numbers and influence under Mr. Williams' labors, and when he gave up his charge he left it a solid, harmonious and intelligent body of Presbyterian Chris- tians, in excellent condition for any one who might follow, to reap the fruit of his labors.
On October 22, 1893, Messrs. Franklin J. Morton and Albert L. Gardner were ordained and installed ruling elders, and on the same day, Messrs. J. Kemp Wysham, Eugene M. Hilder- man, William G. Garrett and George H. Porter were ordained and installed Deacons.
During the year 1897 the Purves Society of Earnest Workers was organized, consisting of the girls of the congre- gation. The first officers of this faithful body of workers were :
Mrs. Spencer E. Sisco, Leader. Miss Leila Skeen, President. Miss Mary Reeside, Secretary. Miss Alberta Smith, Treasjirer.
On the 17th of September, 1900, Mr. William M. Powell, a wise, faithful and devoted member of the church and of the Board of Trustees, passed to his reward, honored and mourned by the whole congregation.
The Rev. Frank E. Williams resigned his office as pastor December 10, 1902, the congregation, in compliance with his earnest request, sorrowfully consenting, and his official connec- tion with the church terminated December 31, 1902. Mr. Wil- liams is now pastor at Lewes, Delaware, and whenever he visits

his former charge in Baltimore he receives a hearty welcome from his old friends and from his successor.
The present pastor, who was then pastor of the First Pres- byterian Church, of Richmond, Va., which position he had held for nearly twenty years, was called to the pulpit of Boundary Avenue Church, on April 22, 1903. He took charge of the church June ist, and was formally installed June 14, 1903, at the evening service. The Rev. Henry Branch, D. D., presided and propounded the constitutional questions, the Rev. Donald Guthrie, D. D., preached the sermon, the Rev. J. P. Campbell, D. D., delivered the charge to the pastor, and the Rev. John Timothy Stone the charge to the people. The congregation have given their pastor a most hearty welcome, and are co- operating with him cordially in his work for the Master.
On the 30th of March, 1904, it was decided, at a meeting of the congregation, to change the title of the church from "Boun- dary Avenue Presbyterian Church," the name no longer being appropriate because the name of the avenue upon whi(ih it was situated had been changed to North Avenue. The title adopted was "The Northminster Presbyterian Church of Baltimore City," and on March 31, 1904, the charter of the church was amended accordingly.
During the summer of 1904 the pulpit platform was extended three feet and three inches forward, and a beautiful Gothic reredos of solid oak was built across the arch in the rear, at an expense of $1,610, adding greatly to the beauty of the church, and affording space on the pulpit platform back of the reredos for a comfortable retiring and robing room for the miniscer.
From the beginning the congregation have taken a deep interest in missions, both home and foreign. During the year
20 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
1899 it was determined to assume the support of a foreign mis- sionary, and the Rev. C. E. Patton, a highly promising young minister of our denomination, was appointed to labor in China. Mr. Patton found a helpmeet in Miss Edith Rosa Carswell, a lovely young Christian lady of the congregation, and they were married June 7, 1900, and the last of October, 1900, they sailed for China, where Mr. Patton still labors, at Yeung Kong, China. Mrs. Patton was removed by the hand of God, and entered upon her everlasting rest April 2, 1902, leaving one child, Edith, now living with 'her mother's parents at Baltimore. Mr. Patton has proved himself a faithful and able missionary, and is doing a successful work in his distant field, while the people of our church constantly remember him in their prayers.
The mission at Waverly, in the northern suburbs of Balti- more, which was begun in 1883, was organized into a church in 1887, a number of members being sent out from our congre- gation for the purpose, and it is now a growing congregation, under the pastoral care of the Rev. John R. Rosebro.
During the year 1903, two beloved ladies of our church, Mrs. Fannie S. Taft Prentiss and Miss Elizabeth V. Prentiss, went to India as missionaries, where they are now, at Etah, devoting their lives to the great cause which is so near to the heart of the Master.
We have thus given a brief sketch of the history of our beloved church during the quarter of a century of its existence. The years past have witnessed much consecrated toil on the part of officers and people, and the members of the church have con- stantly shown a spirit of harmony and co-operation, and a readiness to deny themselves for the cause of God. The congre-
NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH. 21
gation has grown steadily from the beginning, and now that the population of this section of Baltimore has increased, and is increasing so rapidly, there is good reason to expect, under the blessing of the Master whom we serve, greater growth in the time to come. The church is full of courage and hope, and our motto is, Forward in the Name of God.
The present pastor would like to say, that he has found the members of the official bodies of the church, the Session, the Trustees and the Deacons, to be earnest promoters of the work of the church, always ready to give their time, labors and best thought to the important interests committed to their hands. They have been perfectly harmonious among themselves, and extremely courteous to the pastor; but more than that, they have not failed to do everything he has asked of them. To be associated with such men is a great happiness to the pastor, and it gives him courage and inspiration for his work.
The same spirit of harmony, courtesy and readiness to help in the cause which brings us together has been manifested by the various societies and by the congregation. May the great Head of the church keep us all in the bonds of charity, unity and peace !
On Alarch 5th and 6th, 1905, by order of the joint Boards, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the. organization of the church was celebrated. On Sunday, the 5th, the Rev. Francis L. Patton, D. D., of Princeton, preached at the morning service, and was followed by the pastor, who delivered an address on the history of Northminster Church. At the evening service Dr. Patton preached again, and the mural tablet, in memory of the Rev. George Tybout Purves, D. D., LL. D., was unveiled by Mr. W. W. Spence. Then the Rev. Frank E. Williams pronounced
22 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.
a eulogy on Dr. Purves, the pastor offered prayer, and the people sang the hymn —
" For all the saints who from their labors rest."
On Monday evening, the 6th, at a great meeting held in the church, addresses were delivered by Mr. John Willis Baer, the Rev. F. E. Williams and Dr. Kerr. This was followed by a social function in the chapel, given by the Men's Association of the church.
All of the proceedings connected with the anniversary were greatly enjoyed, while the congregation showed a deep sense of thankfulness to God for his kindness to our church, and a strong faith and hope of great things in the years to come.

WHAT THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH STANDS FOR.
The Presbyterian Church stands for a system of doctrine based upon the absolute and eternal sovereignty of God, by whose grace alone fallen men are saved, through the blood of Christ, who purchased salvation for us by his death on the cross; the benefits thereof being applied by the Holy Spirit, who worketh in us repentance for sin, and faith to receive the gift cf eternal life.
The Presbyterian Church stands for the catholicity or universality of the holy church of God, maintaining that Christ is its only Head, and that it is composed of "all those persons throughout the world, who profess the true religion of Christ, together with their children" ; thus recognizing the churchship of all denominations which hold the fundamental truths of the gospel, receiving their ministers in our pulpits, and their members at our communion.
The Presbyterian Church, in its own polity, stands for a government by representative assemblies, from the Session up through the Presbytery and Synod to the General Assembly, each made up of presbyters, or elders, ruling and teaching, called by Christ through his word and Spirit, and elected by the people whom they represent.
The Presbyterian Church stands for religious and civil liberty, declaring that "God alone is Lord of the conscience, and hath left it free from the doctrines and commandments of men." It stands for the inspiration and absolute infallibility of the holy Scriptures, for a faith and life based upon an intelligent apprehension of the truth, for simplicity of worship, for thorough education, for a high standard of Christian living, and for the duty of the church to evangelize the world.
Of the influence of Presbyterianism William E. Gladstone said : "It has given the advantages which in civil order belong to local self-government and representative institutions; orderly habits of mind; the development of a
NORTHMINSTER PreSBYTERIAN ChuRCH. 29
genuine individuality; the sense of a common life and the disposition ener- getically to defend it; the love of law combined with the love of f'eedom."
George Bancroft said of American Independence that "the Revolution of 1776, so far as it was affected by religion, was a Presbyterian measure. It was the natural outgrowth of the principles which the Presbyterianism of the old world planted in her sons, the English Puritans, the Scotch Covenanters, the French Huguenots, the Dutch Calvinists, and the Presbyterians of Ulster."
President Benjamin Harrison said : "The Presbyterian Church has been steadfast for liberty, and it has kept steadfast for education. It has stood as stiff as a steel beam for the faith delivered to our fathers, and it still stands with steadfastness for that essential doctrine — the inspired Word. It is not an illiberal church. There is no body of Christians in the world that opens its arms wider to all who love the Master.' Though it has made no boast or shout, it has yet been an aggressive church. It has been a missionary church from the beginning."

IMPORTANT NOTICES.
By the Pastor.
If you are sick, or know of any sickness or trouble in the congregation, please notify the pastor at once, either by postal card or otherwise.
The pastor visits among the congregation systematically, calling on each family in turn, as frequently as the size of the congregation will allow. If you do not see your pastor as often as you would like, call on him.
The roll of members is revised annually, and the names of persons whose residences are unknown are omitted from the published Directory. They are retained, however, in the Church Register.
Every member of the congregation should belong to some one of the societies of the church.
It is the duty of all who can do so to attend both the services on Sunday, and the Wednesday evening prayer-meeting, and also to take some part in the Sunday-school.
The pastor and his wife are at home Tuesday afternoons and evenings, but are glad to see those who call at any time.

NORTHMINSTER CHOIR.
The choir, in the early days of the church, was under the leadership of Mr, WilHam S. Cross, who not only gave his own services free of cost to the church, but paid for the voices com- posing the quartet choir from his own private funds, thus saving the church from the expense of the choir (except the organist) at a time when the church needed it, and up to March 23, 1886.
The organist at that time was Mr. Thomas S. Callis, who continued to be for eig'hteen years, up to March, 1900, very acceptably. We have had the following to sing for us : Miss V. Schaefer, Miss M, Fort, Mr. Henry Waltjen, Miss Town- send, Mr. Henry S. Macubbin, Mrs. Thomas S. Chappell, Miss Augusta Dade, Mrs. Bettie H. McEwen-Dodge, Miss Lina A. Thomas, Mr. Thomas L. Thomas, Miss Mabel Stevenson, Mrs. Sarah Reed Hoke, Mr. Lewis R. McClure, Jr., the Misses Noel, Miss Ada MacMitchell, Mrs. Dorothy L. Franklin, Mrs. Emilie H. Andrews, J. Allan, Houghton, Mr. E. Russell Prescott was our organist from March, 1900, until May i, 1903. Mr. John C. Bowerman was organist for four months.

OUR WORK IN CHINA.
From our Missionary Pastor, Rev. Charles E. Patton.
The following report from Mr. Patton for November, 1904, will give an idea of his work in China :
At six chapels visited during November, 19 services were held, 51 candidates examined, of whom 14 were received and baptized, among them one woman.
Two infants were baptized at Shui Tung; one, the three weeks' old son of the elder.
Three workers were notified of dismissal for lack of funds ; two other cases are pending.
One man of the Theological Training Class has been dropped partly through lack of funds.
Our itineration for the year has been reduced one-third to keep our expenditures within our share of the board's appropria- tion for the year's work.
During November itineration arrangements were made at Mui Luk for the purchase of a chapel building and payment of one-half year's local expenses which had nearly fallen through; at Faa Chau for the local support of a chapel-keeper; at Shui Tung for the same ; at Slan Hei for the purchase and repair of a chapel building, with local running expenses; these all to be borne by local members.
NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH. 53
At Ko Chau $300 mex. is being collected toward the pur- chase of a chapel building.
Most of the chapels visited during November had not been visited for six months. The results prove the necessity for more frequent itineration and closer oversight. Our limited funds and limited force limit our possibilities. One-half of our field is being covered four times during the year ; the other half, from two to three times.
Native Christianity Generosity.
It is sometimes affirmed that the Christian faith has little hold on the hearts, and commands little self-denial on the part of the Chinese, who profess it. Recently, a Chinese Christian, in business in Canton, headed a subscription list for a new church to be built in Hongkong with the substantial sum of $1,000. This is only one of his gifts. Indeed, it would surprise some, and, we would fain hope, gratify many, who know too little of the facts, could they but know the considerable sums which native Christians give for the support and extension of Chris- tianity here in their own province.
May the new year be full of blessings for Northminster Church, and, through it, for others, is the earnest prayer, from over the seas, of
Sincerely, Charles E. Patton.
Yeung Kong, China, Nevember 25, 1904.
