REPORT  OF  COMMITTEE  ON  CONFERENCE  WITH  THE  UNITED 

PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH. 
To   the   Venerable,   the   General  Assembly   of   the   Presbyterian   Church   in   the 

United  States : 

Your  Committee,  appointed  by  the  last  Assembly,  to  confer  with  a  similar 
Committee  of  the  United  Presbyterian  Church  in  reference  to  the  organic 
union  of  the  two  bodies,  would  respectfully  report  as  f ollov/s,  viz : 

Your  Committee  held  a  meeting  in  the  city  of  Nashville,  Tenn.,  in  the 
month  of  September,  1912,  for  the  purpose  of  coming  to  an  understanding  as 
to  the  propositions  which  it  would  be  proper  for  us  to  make  in  a  joint  meeting 
of  the  two  Committees.  After  a  day  of  earnest  conference,  a  paper  was 
adopted  covering  all  the  points  which,  in  the  judgment  of  your  Committee, 
should  be  considered  in  the  joint  sessions  of  the  Committees. 

On  the  4th  day  of  December,  1912,  in  the  parlor  of  the  Ebbitt  House, 
Washington  City,  the  Committees  met  and  entered  into  conference  at  10  a.  m. 
The  paper  adopted  by  your  Committee  was  presented.  A  similar  paper, 
previously  adopted  by  the  Committee  of  the  United  Presbyterian  Church,  was 
also  presented.  These  papers  furnished  the  materials  of  a  conference  lasting 
through  the  whole  day.  The  object  of  each  Committee  was  to  present,  not 
individual  views  and  preferences,  but  what  was  believed  to  be  the  views  and 
preferences  of  the  Church  represented.  A  beautiful  spirit  of  fraternal  love  and 
confidence  marked  the  discussions,  and  the  utmost  frankness  characterized  the 
interchange  of  ideas.  It  is  to  be  regretted  that  not  all  the  members  of  either 
Committee  were  present.  There  were,  however,  a  majority  of  each  Committee 
present,  and  they  agreed,  without  a  dissenting  vote,  to  recommend  to  the  two 
Assemblies  a  basis  of  union.  As  to  the  principles  involved  in  this  basis  there 
was  no  difference  of  opinion,  but  there  was  not  perfect  agreement  touching  the 
wording  of  one  of  the  articles.  In  the  hope  of  reaching  a  perfect  agreement 
on  this  point,  a  joint  meeting  of  the  two  Committees  was  held  in  the  city  of 


24  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

Atlanta,  Ga.,  on  the  evening  of  May  13th,  1913.  This  conference  was  also 
characterized  by  perfect  candor.  While  on  one  or  two  points  the  Committee 
could  not  see  eye  to  eye,  they  unanimously  agreed  to  lay  before  each  Assembly 
the  fruits  of  their  labors  as  a  basis  of  union  between  the  two  bodies. 

In  accordance  with  this  agreement,  your  Committee  respectfully  presents 
to  your  venerable  body  the  following  as  the  basis  agreed  upon,  viz : 

A    SUGGESTED    BASIS    OF    UNION. 

Believing  in  the  essential  oneness  of  the  Church  of  Christ ;  remembering 
the  historic  lines  that  bind  us  to  revered  ancestors  who  witnessed  valiantly  for 
the  truth  as  it  is  in  Jesus  and  through  whom  has  come  to  us  a  common  heritage 
of  Christian  faith  and  doctrine ;  desiring  to  prove  faithful  in  the  custodianship 
of  this  inheritance  and  aiming  only  for  the  glory  of  God  in  the  higher  advance- 
ment and  wider  extension  of  His  kingdom  upon  earth,  we,  the  members  of 
the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  and  the  members  of  the  United 
Presbyterian  Church  of  North  America,  do  find  a  common  standing  ground  in 
the  following  statements;  and  upon  the  basis  of  these  fundamental  truths  we 
covenant  to  join  our  ecclesiastical  bodies  in  organic  unity: 

I. 

The  doctrinal  standards  now  held  in  common  by  these  two  Churches,  viz : 
the  Westminster  Confession  of  Faith,  the  Larger  and  Shorter  Catechisms,  shall 
be  the  doctrinal  standards  of  the  United  Church. 

II. 

The  standards  are  to  be  interpreted  in  their  natural  and  obvious  meaning, 
and  no  one  shall  be  authorized  to  teach  or  preach  in  the  United  Church  who 
cannot  give  an  unqualified  assent  to  the  doctrinal  system  contained  in  these 
standards. 

III. 

The  United  Church  would  bear  emphatic  testimony  to  the  follov/ing  doc- 
trines as  essential  parts  of  the  aforesaid  system: 

(a)  The  integrity  of  the  Holy  Scriptures.  The  Scriptures  of  the  Old  and 
New  Testaments  are  to  be  received  as  the  very  word  of  God,  and  their 
authority  is  to  be  recognized  as  the  only  infallible  rule  of  faith  and  life. 

(b)  "Our  Lord  Jesus  Christ  is  not  only  the  Son  of  God  in  respect  to  His 
natural,  necessary  and  eternal  relation  to  the  Father,  but  also  the  true  and 
supreme  God,  being  one  in  essence  with  the  Father  and  the  Holy  Spirit." 

(c)  "Our  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  besides  the  dominion  which  belongs  to  Him 
as  God,  has  as  our  God-man  Mediator,  a  two-fold  dominion  with  which  He  has 
been  invested  by  the  Father  as  the  reward  of  His  sufferings.  These  are :  a 
dominion  over  the  Church,  of  which  He  is  the  living  head  and  lawgiver,  and 
source  of  all  that  divine  influence  and  authority  by  which  she  is  sustained  and 
governed ;  and  also  a  dominion  over  all  created  persons  and  things,  which  is 
exercised  by  Him  in  subserviency  to  the  manifestation  of  God's  glory  in  the 
system  of  redemption  and  the  interests  of  His  Church." 

(d)  As  to  the  constitution  of  the  person  of  our  Redeemer,  the  Scriptures 
plainly  teach  that  He  was  conceived  by  the  Holy  Ghost  in  the  womb  of  the 
Virgin  Mary  and  was  born  without  a  human  father.  He  lived  a  life  of  perfect 
obedience,  and  by  the  shedding  of  His  blood  made  full  atonement  for  sin  and 
purchased  redemption  for  His  people. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  25 

(e)  "The  Holy  Spirit,  the  third  person  of  the  Trinity,  eternally  proceeding 
from  the  Father  and  the  Son  does,  by  a  direct  operation  accompanying  the  word, 
so  act  on  the  soul  as  to  quicken,  regenerate  and  sanctify  it ;  it  is  His  to  take 
of  the  things  of  Christ  and  show  them  unto  men ;  and  without  His  direct 
operation  the  soul  would  persist  in  rejecting  the  truths  of  God's  word  and 
would  refuse  to  yield  to  the  motives  which  it  presents."  In  His  gracious  work, 
the  Holy  Spirit  is  the  revealer  of  Christ,  the  interpreter  of  His  word,  and 
the  comforter  of  the  believer. 

In  addition  to  these  essential  doctrines,  the  United  Church  would  lift 
into  prominence : 

,  (i)  The  mission  of  the  Church.  We  believe  that  the  Gospel  of  the  Son 
of  God  is  the  only  hope  of  a  sinful,  dying  world.  We  recognize  in  the  com- 
mands of  Christ  the  urgent  call  to  the  evangelization  of  the  world,  and  we 
bow  before  the  imperative  duty  of  sending  the  message  of  the  Word  for  a 
witness  among  all  nations. 

■  (2)  The  exclusively  spiritual  character  of  the  Church's  mission.  This 
union  is  based  on  the  statement  of  our  common  Confession  of  Faith,  viz: 
"Synods  and  Councils  are  to  handle  or  conclude  nothing  but  that  which  is 
ecclesiastical ;  and  are  not  to  intermeddle  with  civil  affairs  which  concern 
the  commonwealth,  unless  by  way  of  humble  petition  in  cases  extraordinary; 
or  by  way  of  advice  for  satisfaction  of  conscience,  if  they  be  thereunto  required 
by  the  civil  magistrate." 

(3)  The  exclusively  spiritual  character  of  the  mission  of  the  Church  does 
not  imply  that  the  Church  owes  no  duty  to  civil  society.  On  the  contrary,  it  is 
the  imperative  duty  of  the  Church,  through  its  members  as  citizens  of  the  civil 
commonwealth,  to  apply  the  principles  of  Christianity  to  all  the  political,  social 
and  industrial  conditions  of  society. 

IV. 

The  supreme  judicatory  of  the  United  Church  shall  be  a  General  Assembly, 
the  official  title  of  which  shall  be  "The  General  Assembly  of  the  United  Pres- 
byterian Church  of  North  America,"  it  being  understood  and  agreed  that  this 
shall  not  affect  local  and  historic  names  of  churches.  Presbyteries  and 
Synods. 

V. 

As  to  the  basis  of  representation  and  in  the  conduct  and  the  proceedings 
of  the  first  General  Assembly,  the  Book  of  Church  Order  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  the  United  States  shall  be  authoritative. 

VI. 

The  subordinate  courts  of  the  Church  shall  continue  to  use  provisionally 
the  book  of  rules  under  which  they  have  hitherto  been  governed. 

VII. 

The  Synods  and  Presbyteries  shall  remain  as  at  present  constituted,  until 
such  time  as  it  shall  manifestly  appear  that  some  change  is  needed  for  the  best 
interests  of  the  cause  and  Kingdom  of  Christ. 

VIII. 

All  executive  agencies  shall  continue  as  at  present,  and  congregations  shall 
continue  to  send  their  contributions  through  the  customary  channels.     But  these 


26  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

executive  agencies  shall  co-operate  with  each  other  as  far  as  practicable  in  the 
circumstances,  and  shall  seek  to  devise  some  method  by  which,  with  the  author- 
itative action  of  the  General  Assembly  and  the  approbation  of  the  whole 
Church,  they  can  become  completely  identified.  Before,  however,  such  a  com- 
plete consolidation  takes  place,  careful  steps  shall  be  taken,  after  consultation 
with  competent  attorneys,  to  safeguard  and  preserve  all  property  rights  affected 
by  the  union  of  the  Churches. 

IX. 

There  is  a  difference  in  the  historic  faith  and  practice  of  the  two  Churches 
touching  the  matter  of  praise  in  the  worship  of  God.  The  one  Church  holds 
the  belief  that  the  Book  of  Psalms  is  the  perfect  and  divinely  accredited  mai^ual 
of  praise,  and  as  such  is  to  be  used  in  worship  to  the  exclusion  of  all  devo- 
tional compositions  of  uninspired  persons. 

The  other,  while  believing  that  the  Psalms  of  Scripture  were  designed  for 
permanent  use  in  the  Church,  and  should  have  a  large  place  in  Christian 
worship,  yet  hold  that  other  compositions  that  are  in  harmony  with  the  teaching 
of  Scripture  may,  with  propriety  and  profit,  be  used  in  congregational  singing. 

This  difference  is  frankly  recognized ;  but,  holding  our  respective  views, 
in  the  forbearance  of  love,  we  suggest  the  following  as  a  practicable  basis : 

We  believe  that  the  Psalter  of  the  Bible,  the  Psalms  of  David,  is  an  inspired 
manual  of  praise  and  the  Spirit  of  God  indited  these  songs  to  be  used  in  the 
worship  of  the  people  of  God  to  the  end  of  time.  The  United  Church  will, 
therefore,  take  immediate  steps  to  introduce  to  all  its  congregations,  by  en- 
dorsing and  recommending,  the  Psalms  of  the  Bible  in  the  best  metrical  version 
as  a  divinely  accredited  book  of  praise.  But,  while  strongly  commending  the 
use  of  the  Psalms,  it  is  agreed  that  each  church  in  our  respective  Synods  shall 
be  allowed  in  the  matter  of  congregational  singing  the  same  liberty  which 
it  now  enjoys. 

Finally,  recognizing  that  it  is  impossible  to  make  specific  provision  for  all 
points  of  difference  that  may  arise,  it  is  understood  that  these  Churches  enter 
the  union  in  the  spirit  of  mutual  confidence  and  Christian  love,  and  with  a 
sole  view  to  the  honor  of  Christ  and  the  extension  of  His  Kingdom.  It 
follows  from  this  that  the  law  of  Christian  charity  as  expounded  by  the 
Apostle  Paul  must  be  our  guide:  "Let  us  not,  therefore,  judge  one  another 
any  more;  but  judge  ye  this  rather  that  no  man  put  a  stumbling  block  in  his 
brother's  way."  "Let  each  of  us  please  his  neighbor  for  that  which  is  good 
unto  edifying,"  "doing  nothing  through  faction  or  through  vainglory,  but  in 
lowliness  of  mind,  each  counting  other  better  than  himself ;  not  looking 
each  of  you  to  his  own  things,  but  each  of  you  also  to  the  things  of  others."

MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  27 

Your  Committee  recommend  that  this  report  be  not  considered  at  this 
Assembly,  but  that  it  be  placed  on  the  docket  for  the  consideration  of  the  next 
Assembly.  Your  Committee  would  mention  two  reasons  for  this  course.  First, 
this  is  the  disposition  which  the  Committee  of  the  United  Presbyterian  Church 
is  going  to  ask  their  Assembly  to  make  of  their  report,  and  it  is  desirable  that 
the  two  bodies  act  in  concert.  Second,  as  this  basis  is  new  to  our  Church,  and 
as  the  two  Churches,  occupying  different  territories,  widely  separated,  are  not 
well  acquainted,  a  year  should  be  allowed  for  both  Churches  to  acquaint  them- 
selves with  the  gravity  of  the  step  proposed. 

R.    C.    Reed,    Chairman

joint  meeting  arranged  for  tonight,  the  Assembly  adjourned  until  9 
a.  m.  Monday,  closing  with  prayer.

The  Moderator  of  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United

BILLS  AND  OVERTURES  REPORT. 

The  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures  made  the  following  partial 
report,  which  was  adopted  : 

Your  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures,  in  answer  to  overtures  from,  the 
Presbyteries  of  Lexington  and  Winchester,  touching  amending  the  Book  of 
Church  Order,  would  recommend  that  these  overtures  be  answered  in  the 
affirmative  and  that  the  following  amendment  be  sent  down  to  the  Presbyteries 
for  their  advice  and  consent : 

1st.  By  adding  to  Chapter  VII  the  following  words  as  Paragraph  IV  of 
said  chapter: 

"Paragraph  III  of  this  chapter  shall  also  be  the  rule  governing  the  union 
between  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  and  any  other  ecclesi- 
astical body,  so  that  such  union  may  be  effected  only  upon  the  recommenda- 
tion of  one  General  Assembly,  the  concurrence  of  at  least  three-fourths  of  the 
Presbyteries,  and  the  consummation  of  the  same  by  a  subsequent  Assembly." 

2nd.  B.v  substituting  the  words  "three-fourths"  for  the  words  "a  majority" 
in  Paragraph  90,  and  inserting  after  the  words  "correspond  with  other  churches" 
in  the  same  paragraph  the  following  clause :  "To  unite  with  other  ecclesiastical 
bodies  whose  organization  is  conformed  to  the  doctrines  and  order  of  this 
Church,  such  union  to  be  effected  by  a  mode  of  procedure  defined  in  Chapter 
VII.  Paragraph  IV." 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  29 

In  answer  to  a  communication  from  Dr.  W.  W.  Moore,  concerning  a  per- 
manent committee  to  arrange  suitable  subjects  for  Reformation  Day,  your 
Committee  would  recommend  that  the  Moderator  appoint  a  committee  of  five 
to  prepare  a  suitable  program  for  Reformation  Day. 

In  answer  to  an  overture  from  Rev.  D.  S.  Gage,  asking  that  a  change  in 
the  Book  of  Church  Order  be  made,  which  will  eliminate  and  correct  the  evil 
of  the  Stated  Supply  System,  your  Committee  would  most  respectfully  answer 
said  overture  in  the  negative. 

Rev.  W.  M.  McPheeters,  D.  D.,  presented  as  a  loan  for  use  in  one 
of  the  sessions  of  the  Assembly  a  historic  gavel,  the  property  of  the 
Presbytery  of  Piedmont. 

A  gavel  made  of  wood  from  historic  places  was  also  presented  to 
the  Moderator  by  Mr.  D.  A.  Beattie. 

The  Moderator  accepted  these  gavels  and  made  fitting  responses. 

The  Select  Committee  to  tabulate  the  answers  of  the  Presbyteries 
to  the  overtures  sent  down  by  the  last  Assembly  made  the  following 
report,  which  was  adopted  : 

ANSWERS  OF  PRESBYTERIES  TO  OVERTURES. 

Your  Special  Committee  appointed  to  canvass  the  vote  of  the  Presbyteries 
upon  the  several  overtures  sent  down  to  them  by  the  Assembly  of  1912,  beg  to 
submit  the  following  report ; 

There  are  now  85  Presbyteries  connected  with  the  Assembly,  and  we 
find  that : 

1.  On  the  amendment  of  the  Confession  of  Faith,  Chapter  X,  Section  3, 
known  as  "The  Elect  Infant  Clause": 

55  Presbyteries  vote  "Aye." 
22  Presbyteries  vote  "No." 
8  Presbyteries  make  no  answer. 

2.  On  the  amendment  of  the  Book  of  Church  Order,  Paragraph  87,  as  to 
a  change  in  the  basis  of  representation  in  the  General  Assembly: 

55  Presbyteries  vote  "Aye." 
I  Presbytery    (Norfolk)    approves    in   part. 

14  Presbyteries  vote  "No." 

15  Presbyteries  make  no  answer. 

3.  On  the  amendment  of  the  Book  of  Church  Order,  Paragraph  94, 
recommending  that  both  Synod  and  Assembly  be  empowered  to  commit  the 
trial  of  cases  coming  before  them  on  appeal  to  a  commission  composed  of 
others  than  members  of  the  court  from,  which  the  case  shall  come  up : 

53  Presbyteries  vote  "Aye." 
17  Presbyteries  vote  "No." 
15  Presbyteries  make  no  answer. 

4.  On  the  amendment  to  the  Book  of  Church  Order,  Paragraphs  132  to 
134,  touching  the  requirements  for  Licensure  of  Candidates  for  the  Ministry : 

58  Presbyteries  vote  "Aye." 
12  Presbyteries  vote  "No." 
15  Presbyteries  make  no  answer. 


30  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

5.  Four  Presbyteries,  viz:  LaFayette,  Lexington,  Potosi,  and  West  Han- 
over, overture  the  Assembly  to  expunge  from  the  Confession  of  Faith  the 
whole  of  Section  3  of  Chapter  X. 

In  presenting  this  report,  your  Committee  v^^ould  call  the  attention  of  the 
Assembly  to  two  facts : 

(a)  A  large  number  of  Presbyteries  (approximately  20%  of  the  entire 
number)  have  ignored  all,  or  most,  of  the  overtures  submitted  to  them  by 
the  Assembly. 

(b)  While  a  majority  of  these  reports  complied  with  the  instructions  of 
the  Assembly,  and  were  clearly  stated  and  presented  on  separate  sheets  of 
paper,  yet  an  unhappily  large  number  of  them  were  injected  at  .random  into 
personal  letters  to  the  Stated  Clerk,  the  discussion  of  assessments,  and  other 
matters  equally  extraneous. 

Such  confused  and  careless  methods  of  transacting  the  Lord's  business  seem 
to  be  wholly  without  excuse. 

Respectfully  submitted  for  the  Committee. 

H.  Tucker  Graham,  Chairman. 

The  Assembly  then  formally  enacted  the  three  amendments  to  the 
Book  of  Church  Order  which  had  been  adopted  by  the  Presbyteries 
as  indicated  in  the  tabulated  report  of  the  Select  Committee,  which 
are  as  follows.  Paragraphs  number  87,  94,  and  132  to  134.  The 
amendments  enacted  are  as  follows  : 

1.  Amendment  to  the  Form  of  Government,  Paragraph  87,  so  that,  begin- 
ning on  the  fourth  line,  it  shall  read :  "Every  Presbytery  shall  be  entitled  to 
send  one  minister  and  one  ruHng  elder ;  but  if  the  number  of  communicants  in 
its  churches  and  ministers  on  its  roll  together  be  over  4,000,  it  shall  send  an 
additional  minister  and  ruling  elder;  and  in  like  proportion  for  every  4,000 
communicants  and  ministers." 

2.  Amendment  to  Paragraph  94,  by  striking  out  the  whole  of  the  first 
sentence  in  the  paragraph  and  substituting  the  following  words  in  its  place : 
"The  Synod  and  the  General  Assembly  may,  at  their  own  discretion,  commit 
any  case  of  trial,  coming  before  them  on  appeal,  to  the  judgment  of  a  com- 
mission, composed  of  others  than  members  of  the  court  from  which  the  case 
shall  come  up.  Except  that  all  cases  affecting  doctrine  shall  be  tried  by  the 
court  itself.  The  commission  of  a  Synod,"  etc.  (Paragraph  to  continue  as  at 
present.) 

3.  (i)  Amendment  to  Paragraphs  132-134  (Form  of  Government,  Chapter 
VL  Section  6)  :  i.  Strike  out  Paragraph  4  as  far  as  the  words  "head  in 
divinity"  and  substitute  the  following,  viz :  "The  Presbytery  shall  examine 
each  candidate  on  theology,  natural  and  revealed,  the  Sacraments  and  Church 
government.  It  shall  also  examine  him  as  to  his  knowledge  of  the  Latin 
language,  mental  philosophy,  logic,  rhetoric,  ethics,  the  natural  sciences  and 
similar  subjects,  and  upon  the  original  languages  of  the  Holy  Scriptures  and 
ecclesiastical  history;  or,  in  lieu  of  the  examination  on  any  of  these  academic 
studies,  it  may  accept  a  certificate  from  an  approved  college ;  and  in  lieu  of 
the  examination  on  the  original  languages  of  Scripture  and  ecclesiastical  history, 
it  may  accept  a  certificate  from  an  approved  theological  seminary.     Moreover, 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  31 

the  Presbytery  shall  require  a  discussion  in  Latin  or  in  English  of  a  thesis  on 
some  common  head  in  divinity." 

(2)  Strike  out  the  opening  words  of  Paragraph  6  as  far  as  the  words 
"teacher  of  theology"  and  substitute  for  the  same  the  following,  viz :  "No 
Presbytery  shall  omit  any  of  these  parts  of  trial  except  in  extraordinary  cases." 

(3)  At  the  end  of  Paragraph  6  the  following  words  be  added,  viz:  "That 
the  foregoing  provision,  mutatis  ■mutandis,  shall  apply  to  the  examination  for 
ordination  of  extraordinary  cases." 

The  Assembly  also  declared  that  the  proposed  amendment  to  the 
Confession  of  Faith,  Chapter  X,  Section  3,  had  failed  of  adoption,  be- 
cause three-fourths  of  the  Presbyteries  had  not  given  their  consent  to 
the  change. 

The  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures  presented  a  partial  report, 
Vv^hich  was  adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

BILLS  AND  OVERTURES  REPORT. 

There  have  come  into  our  hands  overtures  from  Albemarle,  Muhlenburg, 
King's  Mountain,  Potosi,  Wilmington,  Concord,  West  Hanover,  and  St.  Louis 
Presbyteries,  asking  that  Chapter  X,  Section  3,  of  the  Confession  of  Faith 
be  amended. 

We  give  answer  as  follows :  In  view  of  the  fact  that  the  question  of 
amending  this  section  has  been  before  the  Church  for  thirteen  years  and  the 
Church  has  not  agreed  on  the  form  of  change  to  be  made,  and  in  view  of  the 
further  fact  that  the  Assembly  of  1902  (Alexander's  Digest  Revised,  page  8) 
declared  that  the  Holy  Scriptures  amply  warrant  us  in  believing  that  all  infants 
who  die  in  infancy  are  included  in  the  Election  of  Grace  and  are  regenerated 
and  saved  by  Christ  through  the  Spirit,  which  declaration  we  would  here 
reafifirm,  we  recommend  that  no  amendment  for  the  present  be  sent  down  to  the 
Presbyteries.  T.  S.  Clyce,  Chairman. 

The  Committee  on  Judicial  Business  presented  the  following  partial 
report,  which  was  adopted  : 

PARTIAL  REPORT  OF  THE  JUDICIAL  COMMITTEE. 

Your  Committee  respectfully  report  that  certain  communications  from 
Westminster  Church,  Springfield,  Mo.,  were  placed  in  their  hands,  reciting 
that  the  General  Assembly  has  a  contingent  reversionary  interest  in  the  lot 
on  which  the  church  building  of  the  Westminster  Church  stands,  and  asking 
the  General  Assembly  to  relinquish  its  claim  and  thus  permit  the  Westminster 
Church  to  sell  the  property  and  reinvest  the  proceeds  in  other  property,  which 
will  be  much  to  the  advantage  of  the  Church. 

Your  Committee  recommend  that  this  request  be  granted  by  adopting  the 
following  paper : 

Whereas,  on  the  third  day  of  March,  1894,  John  G.  Russell  and  Pauline 
P.  Russell,  his  wife ;  T.  B.  Townsend,  and  Jere  C.  Cravens,  by  their  certain 
instrument  in  writing  and  deed  of  said  date,  recorded  in  the  office  of  the 
Recorder  of  Deeds  in  and  for  the  County  of  Greene,  in  the  State  of  Missouri, 
in  Book  136,  at  page  216,  conveyed  unto  Jesse  W.  Hogg,  F.  C.  Roberts,  and 
Ed  A.  Barbour,  as  trustees  for  the  body  of  Christian  people  known  and 
designated    as    Westminster     Presbyterian    Church     of    Springfield,    Missouri, 


32  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

said  Church  being  identified  and  holding  connection  with  that  body  known  as 
the  Synod  of  Missouri,  identified  and  holding  connection  with  that  body  known 
and  designated  as  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the 
United  States,  the  following  described  tract  or  parcel  of  land,  situated  in  the 
County  of  Greene,  in  the  State  of  Missouri,  that  is  to  say,  "Beginning  at  the 
northeast  corner  of  Jefferson  and  E.  Elm  streets,  in  the  City  of  Springfield, 
Missouri ;  thence  north  on  the  east  line  of  Jefferson  street  eighty-four  feet, 
more  or  less,  to  Pauline  P.  Russell's  lot ;  thence  east  one  hundred  and  thirty 
feet;  thence  south  eighty-four  feet,  more  or  less,  to  the  north  line  of  East  Elm 
street;  thence  west  one  hundred  and  thirty  feet  to  the  beginning,"  it  being 
expressly  understood  and  conditioned  that  should  said  Westminster  Presby- 
terian Church  at  any  time  withdraw  from  or  cease  to  be  connected  with  the 
said  Synod  of  Missouri,  or  in  anywise  or  from  any  cause  cease  to  be  connected 
with  the  said  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  (so  long  as  said  General  Assembly  continues  its  separate  organization 
as  then  constituted)  then,  and  in  either  or  any  such  event,  the  said  trustees 
named,  their  heirs  and  successors  in  office,  shall  thereby  and  forthwith  become 
the  trustees  of  and  accountable  in  said  trust  to  the  said  General  Assembly,  and 
shall  have  the  absolute  right  both  in  law  and  in  equity  to  the  possession  and 
control  of  said  property — 

And  whereas  said  Westminster  Presbyterian  Church  of  Springfield,  Mis- 
souri, and  said  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  are  desirous  of  selling  and  disposing  of  said  real  estate  and  the  interests 
of  said  Church  and  General  Assembly  therein,  and  of  reinvesting  the  proceeds 
of  such  sale  in  other  real  estate  to  be  held,  possessed  and  controlled  by  said 
Westminster  Presbyterian  Church — 

And  whereas  said  Westminster  Presbyterian  Church  of  Springfield,  Mis- 
souri, and  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  believe  it  to  be  to  the  best  interests  of  all  concerned  and  more  con- 
ducive to  the  objects  and  purposes  of  said  trust  that  such  sale,  conveyance  and 
reinvestment  be  made — 

Now,  therefore,  be  it  resolved  by  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presby- 
terian Church  in  the  United  States  that  Ed  A.  Barbour  and  Jesse  W.  Hogg 
(F.  C.  Roberts  being  dead),  trustees  as  aforesaid,  be  and  they  are  hereby 
authorized,  empowered  and  directed  for  and  on  behalf  of  the  General  As- 
sembly of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  to  sell  and  dispose  of 
any  and  all  interests,  vested  or  contingent,  of  the  said  General  Assembly  of 
the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  in  and  to  said  real  estate  unto 
such  person  or  persons,  natural  or  artificial,  and  for  such  sum  or  sums  as  they 
may  deem  just  and  proper,  and  to  execute,  acknowledge  and  deliver  to  the 
purchaser  or  purchasers  such  conveyance  or  conveyances  as  may  be  necessary 
to  convey  unto  such  purchaser  or  purchasers  the  interests  of  said  General 
Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  therein,  severally  or 
jointly,  with  a  conveyance  of  the  interests  of  said  Westminster  Presbyterian 
Church  of  Springfield,  Missouri,  and  to  reinvest  the  proceeds  of  such  sale  or 
sales  in  such  real  estate  as  they  may  deem  proper  to  be  held,  possessed  and 
controlled  by  Westminster  Presbyterian  Church  of  Springfield,  Missouri. 

R.  C.  Reed,  Chairman. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  33 

The  Committee  on  Theological  Seminaries  presented  the  following 
report,  which  was  adopted : 

THEOLOGICAL  SEMINARIES. 
Reports  have  been  received  from  Austin  Theological   Seminary,  Columbia 
Theological  Seminary,  Kentucky  Theological  Seminary,  the  Divinity  School  of 
the    Southwestern    Presbyterian    University,    and    Union   Theological    Seminary 
in  Virginia. 

1.  Austin  Seminary. — The  year  just  closed  has  been  a  most  successful  one 
for  the  Seminary.  Twenty-seven  students  for  the  ministry  have  been  enrolled 
and  three  young  women,  studying  in  preparation  for  work  on  the  foreign  field. 
Besides  this,  the  Seminary  professors,  of  which  there  are  six,  have  taught  Bible 
classes  in  the  University  of  Texas,  with  a  total  enrollment  of  thirty-five. 

At  the  close  of  the  session  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Divinity  was  con- 
ferred upon  five  students. 

2.  Columbia  Theological  Seminary. — The  enrollment  at  Columbia  during 
the  year  has  been  thirty,  divided  as  follows:  Seniors,  5;  Middlers,  3;  Juniors, 
12;  and  Special  Students,  10.  These  figures  show  a  commendable  increase  over 
last  year,  and  testify  to  the  wise  choice  of  Rev.  Thornton  Whaling,  D.  D.,  as 
President  of  this  institution. 

The  Seminary  records  with  deep  sorrow  the  loss  of  Rev.  R.  G.  Pearson, 
D.  D.,  Professor  of  the  English  Bible  and  Practical  Theology. 

During  the  year  a  course  of  lectures  has  been  delivered  on  the  Smyth 
Foundation  by  Mr.  Robert  E.  Speer,  D.  D.,  of  New  York,  on  "The  Problems 
of  Missions  Illustrated  from  the  Lives  of  Great  Missionaries." 

From  the  campaign  in  South  Carolina  for  funds  of  the  three  Presbyterian 
Educational  Institutions  within  the  bounds  of  the  Synod,  the  Seminary  will 
probably  realize  the  sum  of  forty  thousand  dollars,  which  will  do  much  toward 
increasing  the  usefulness  of  the  institution. 

3.  Kentucky  Seminary. — The  Seminary  at  Louisville  reports  ten  members 
of  the  faculty,  with  sixty-seven  students;  Senior  Class,  7;  Middle  Class,  17; 
Junior  Class,  22;  Graduate  Students,  10;  Special  Students,  5.  The  degree 
of  Bachelor  of  Divinity  was  conferred  upon  all  the  members  of  the  Senior 
Class. 

The  Seminary  is  in  immediate  need  of  funds  for  endowment  and  for 
scholarships.  There  has  been  a  serious  deficit  in  the  funds  for  current  expenses. 
This  deficit  the  Board  of  Directors  has  taken  steps  to  provide  against  for 
next  year. 

4.  Divinity  School  of  the  Southwestern  Presbyterian  University. — The 
very  successful  year  at  the  Southwestern  which  has  just  closed  has  been  sad- 
dened by  the  death  of  Rev.  John  W.  Rosebro,  D.  D.,  Professor  of  Theology. 

Rev.  A.  R.  Shaw,  D.  D.,  of  Charlotte,  N.  C,  has  been  called  to  the  vacant 
chair,  and  will  assume  its  duties  with  the  opening  of  the  Fall  work.  In  the 
interim  the  chair  has  been  filled  by  Rev  R.  E.  FuUon,  B.  D.,  Professor  of 
Ecclesiastical  History. 

Rev.  Robert  Price,  D.  D.,  Professor  in  the  Seminary  since  its  beginning, 
was  in  June  made  Professor-emeritus,  in  recognition  of  his  long  and  notable 
service. 


34  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

During  the  year  twelve  hundred  volumes  have  been  added  to  the  Seminary 
Library  by  bequests.  There  is  in  Southwestern  a  close  relationship  between 
the  College  and  the  Seminary,  making  it  possible  for  students  to  complete 
their  courses  of  the  degrees  of  A.  B.  and  B.  D.  in  five  years. 

5.  Union  Theological  Seminary  in  Virginia. — In  point  of  attendance  Union 
fias  during  the  past  year  broken  all  records,  the  registration  for  the  session 
being  one  hundred  and  seven.  The  students  have  conducted  among  themselves 
seven  mission  study  classes  and  have  engaged  in  practical  and  effective  mission 
work  in  the  State  Penitentiary,  the  State  Reformatory,  the  City  Almshouse, 
the  Soldiers'  Home,  and  among  the  colored  people  of  the  city  of  Richmond 
and  vicinity.  Of  the  student  body,  twenty-six,  or  almost  one-fourth,  are  volun- 
teers for  the  foreign  field. 

During  the  year  the  first  of  the  Sprunt  Lectures  was  delivered  by  Rev. 
David  J.  Burrell,  D.  D.,  of  New  York,  on  "The  Sermon :  Its  Construction 
and  Delivery."  The  second  of  the  series  will  be  delivered  in  October  by  Sir 
William  Ramsey,  of  Edinburgh,  on  "The  Bearing  of  Recent  Discovery  on  the 
Trustworthiness  of  the  New  Testament;"  and  the  third  will  be  in  April,  by 
Professor  James  Stalker,  of  Aberdeen,  on  "Religious  Psychology." 

The  Centennial  of  the  Seminary  was  celebrated  in  October,  and  was  the 
occasion  of  a  great  gathering  of  the  alumni  and  friends  of  the  Seminary. 
During  the  Centennial  announcement  was  made  of  a  gift  of  ten  thousand  dollars 
from  Mrs.  Cyrus  H.  McCormick,  of  Chicago,  in  memory  of  her  husband,  and 
also  of  the  payment  in  full  long  before  the  time  of  the  balance  of  the  fund 
pledged  by  Mr.  George  W.  Watts  for  the  establishment  of  the  Walter  W. 
Moore  Foundation. 

One  new  building  has  been  completed  during  the  session,  giving  the 
Seminary  ten  complete  buildings  on  the  campus. 

Your  Committee  makes  the  following  recommendations : 

1.  That  the  Assembly  extends  its  congratulations  to  Union  Theological 
Seminary  upon  the  completion  of  a  full  century  of  devoted  service  for  the 
Church  and  of  soundness  in  the  faith. 

2.  That  the  Assembly  hereby  expresses  its  deep  sense  of  sorrow  and 
loss  at  the  deaths,  in  the  midst  of  faithful  and  efficient  service,  of  Rev.  John 
William  Rosebro,  D.  D.,  Professor  of  Theology  in  the  Divinity  School  of  the 
Southwestern  Presbyterian  University,  and  of  Rev.  R.  G.  Pearson,  D.  D., 
Professor  of  English  Bible  and  Practical  Theology  in  Columbia  Seminary. 

3.  That  the  election  of  Rev.  A.  R.  Shaw,  D.  D.,  as  Professor  of  Theology 
in  Southwestern  Divinity  School,  be  approved  by  the  Assembly. 

4.  That  the  Assembly  expresses  its  appreciation  of  the  long  and  devoted 
service  of  Rev.  Robert  Price,  D.  D.,  of  Southwestern,  recently  made  Profes- 
sor-emeritus. 

5.  That  the  Assembly  would  express  its  gratitude  to  the  great  Head  of  the 
Church  that  He  has  led  consecrated  men  of  wealth  to  establish  lectureships, 
like  the  Smyth  and  Sprunt  Courses  in  Columbia  and  Union,  for  the  benefit 
not  only  of  the  students,  but  also  of  the  Church  at  large. 

Stuart  Nye  Hutchison,  Chairman. 

Rev.  Joseph  B.  Turner,  D.  D.,  General  Secretary  of  the  Presby- 
terian Historical  Society,  was  presented  and  addressed  the  Assembly 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  35 

in.  the  interests  of  that  Society.  The  Assembly  expressed  its  apprecia- 
tion of  the  address  and  of  the  work  done  by  the  Society. 

Rev.  Frank  Foster,  D.  D.,  Field  Secretary  of  the  American  Tract 
Society,  was  presented  and  addressed  the  Assembly  in  the  interest  of 
that  Society. 

The  following  resolution  of  appreciation  was  then  adopted: 

The  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church,  U.  S.,  in  session  in 
Atlanta,  Georgia,  expresses  its  appreciation  of  the  work  of  the  American 
Tracts  Society  in  sending  its  Colporters  to  the  neglected  people  to  seek  their 
personal  salvation,  in  its  many  timely  publications,  in  the  various  languages 
spoken,  in  these  United  States,  and  in  its  publication  in  175  languages  for  use 
en  the  foreign  fields. 

Therefore,  be  it  resolved,  that  this  General  Assembly  expresses  its  hearty 
approval  of  this  work,  commends  it  to  the  generosity  of  churches  and  individ- 
uals, and  wishes  it  success  in  securing  an  additional  fund  of  $500,000  to  enlarge 
its  work. 

The  Assembly  then  took  recess  until  2 :30  p.  m. 


AFTERNOON  SESSION. 


2 130  p.  m. 


The  Assembly  met. 

Eleven  a.  m.  Tuesday  was  fixed  as  the  time  for  hearing  Rev.  John 
Fox,  D.  D.,  Corresponding  Secretary  of  the  American  Bible  Society. 

The  order  of  the  day,  the  hearing  of  the  report  of  the  Standing 
Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence,  was  taken  up. 

The  report  was  considered  seriatim,  amended  and  adopted  in  part. 
The  further  consideration  of  this  report  was  suspended. 

The  Select  Committee  to  whom  were  referred  overtures  touching 
our  relations  with  other  ecclesiastical  bodies  made  a  report,  which  was 
adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

REPORT  OF  SPECIAL  COMMITTEE  ON  OVERTURES  TOUCHING 
CLOSER  RELATION  WITH  OTHER  PRESBYTERIAN  BODIES. 
The  Committee  to  which  were  referred  the  overtures  from  the  Presbyteries 
of  Dallas,  Central  Texas,  Nashville,  and  Upper  Missouri,  asking  that  an  ad 
interim  committee  be  appointed  by  this  Assembly,  and  that  the  Assemblies  of 
other  Reformed  Churches  holding  the  Presbyterian  System  in  this  country  be 
requested  to  appoint  similar  committees,  which  shall  confer  on  the  feasibility  of 
a  plan  for  closer  relations  between  these  Churches,  would  recommend  the 
following  answer : 

In  view  of  negotiations  now  pending  between  this  Assembly  and  that  of  the 
United  Presbyterian  Church  touching  organic  union  of  the  two  bodies,  this 
Assembly  deems  this  an  inopportune  time  to  raise  the  question  of  closer  rela- 
tions with  other  bodies.  R.  F.  Campbell,  Chairman. 

The  order  of  the  day,  the  hearing  of  the  Corresponding  Delegate

the  Standing  Committee  on  Christian  Education  and  Ministerial  Relief. 

The  Assembly  then  adjourned  until  9  a.  m.  tomorrow  in  order  to

Fifth  Day 

Tuesday,  May  20,  191 3. 

The  Assembly  met  at  9  a.  m.  and  engaged  in  devotional  exercises,

The  minutes  of  yesterday  were  read  and  approved. 

Rev.  Geo.  McCormick,  D.  D.,  Fraternal  Delegate  from  the  United 
Presbyterian  Church  of  North  America,  was  introduced  and  conveyed

The  memorial  of  Rev.  C.  W.  Humphries,  D.  D.,  was  transferred 
from  the  Standing  Committee  on  Judicial  Business  to  the  Standing

The  Assembly  was,  at  this  time,  led  in  prayer  by  Rev.  R.  H. 
Fleming,  D.  D.,  for  special  guidance  in  the  deliberations  of  the  three 
Assemblies  now  in  session  in  this  city. 

The  Commissioners  were  requested  to  refrain  from  applauding. 

The  unfinished  business,  the  report  of  the  Standing  Committee  on 
Systematic  Beneficence,  was  taken  up.  The  report  was  further  con- 
sidered seriatim.  The  report  was  then  adopted  as  a  whole  and  is  as 
follows : 

REPORT     OF     THE     STANDING     COMMITTEE     ON     SYSTEMATIC 

BENEFICENCE. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  begs  leave  to  submit 
the  following  report : 

The  following  documents  were  placed  in  our  hands :  The  Annual  Report 
of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence,  all  the  Presbyterial 
Statistical  Reports  on  Systematic  Beneficence,  thirteen  overtures  from  Presby- 
teries, one  overture  from  a  Church  Session,  and  one  overture  from  an  indi- 
vidual. Besides,  we  have  had  access  to  the  minutes  and  files  of  the  Permanent 
Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence.  All  these  documents  we  have  examined 
with  care. 

First  of  all,  we  wish  to  warmly  commend  the  great  diligence  of  the 
Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence.     One  who  has  not  examined 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  37 

the  minutes  and  files  of  this  Committee  can  scarcely  conceive  of  the  vast  labor 
of  love  which  has  been  performed  by  this  Committee,  or  of  the  sacrifice  of  time 
and  energy  and  money  its  members  have  made  in  the  performance  of  their 
duties.  Even  those  who  do  not  agree  with  every  detail  of  the  policy  of  this 
Committee  must  feel  that  through  it  a  great  piece  of  constructive  work  has 
been  done  for  the  Church  during  the  last  three  years. 

Of  the  documents  which  have  been  placed  in  our  hands,  we  will  take  up  first 
the  Annual  Report  of  the  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence.  Inasmuch 
as  the  whole  report  was  referred  to  our  Committee,  we  suppose  that  it  would 
be  competent  for  us  to  consider  and  report  on  every  item  contained  in  it; 
but  inasmuch  as  the  Assembly  has  strong  standing  committees  on  each  of  the 
four  causes  represented  by  the  Executive  Committees,  and  inasmuch  as  it  is 
necessary  for  each  of  these  standing  committees  to  take  into  consideration 
everything  affecting  the  cause  represented  by  that  committee,  we  have  thought 
it  wiser,  in  order  to  prevent  confusion,  that  our  Committee  should  not  con- 
sider those  items  in  the  report  which  affect  the  work  of  any  one  Executive 
Committee  alone,  but  only  those  items  which  affect  the  work  of  two  or  more 
of  these  Committees.  We  trust  that  the  Assembly  will  approve  of  our  decision 
in  this  matter,  as  we  had  no  precedent  or  instructions  to  go  by.  Turning  now 
to  those  items  in  the  report  in  which  two  or  more  of  the  Executive  Committees 
are  concerned,  we  make  the  following  recommendations : 

CAMPAIGN   ON    EVANGELISM   AND    STEWARDSHIP. 

1.  That  the  four  Executive  Committees,  with  the  help  of  the  Laymen's 
Missionary  Movement,  will  continue  the  Campaign  on  Evangelism  and  Stew- 
ardship, conducting  such  Presbyterial  conferences  and  such  other  conferences 
as  may  seem  wise  to  them. 

2.  That  the  four  Executive  Committees,  with  the  help  of  the  Laymen's 
Missionary  Movement,  take  such  part  in  the  Interdenominational  Campaign  on 
Evangelism  and  Stewardship  as  may  seem  wise  to  them. 

3.  That  the  Every-Member-Canvass  be  held  during  or  before  March,  1914, 
under  the  direction  of  the  four  Executive  Committees,  with  the  help  of  the 
Laymen's  Missionary  Movement. 

4.  That  the  recommendations  of  the  Permanent  Committee  concerning 
the  amounts  to  be  raised  for  the  four  Assembly's  causes  and  the  American 
Bible  Society  be  approved. 

5.  That  the  recommendation  of  the  Permanent  Committee  as  to  the  distri- 
bution of  the  amounts  among  the  Synods  be  approved. 

6.  That  the  recommendations  of  the  Permanent  Committee  as  to  the 
percentages  according  to  which  undesignated  contributions  are  to  be  distributed 
among  the  several  causes  be  approved,  namely :  54  per  cent,  to  Foreign  Missions ; 
27  per  cent,  to  Assembly's  Home  Missions;  14^2  per  cent,  to  Christian 
Education  and  Ministerial  Relief,  3^/2  per  cent,  to  Sunday  School  Work  and 
Publication;  and  i  per  cent,  to  the  Bible  Cause. 

7.  That  the  Assembly  remind  the  Synods  and  Presbyteries  that  the 
amounts  suggested  for  the  several  Synods  in  the  report  of  the  Permanent 
Committee  are  exclusively  for  the  General  Assembly's  causes,  and  that  any 
amount  which  a  Synod  or  Presbytery  wishes  to  raise  for  local  causes  must 
be  in  addition  to  the  amounts  suggested  in  this  report. 


38  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

8.  That  the  plan  of  the  Campaign  Committee  on  Evangelism  and  Stew- 
ardship to  raise  $500,000  for  equipment  and  $500,000  for  reinforcement,  which 
has  been  recommended  by  the  Permanent  Committee,  be  approved ;  and  that 
the  four  Executive  Committees,  with  the  help  of  the  Laymen's  Missionary 
Movement,  be  authorized  and  directed  to  go  forward  with  the  campaign 
according  to  the  plan  submitted  herewith : 

I.    THE  CANVASS   FOR  EQUIPMENT  AND  REINFORCEMENT  AT  HOME  AND   ABROAD. 

It  is  planned  that  a  team  of  four  or  five  missionaries,  or  representatives  of 
mission  work,  visit  every  center  of  Presbyterianism  and  present  the  work  and 
the  opportunities  in  all  the  fields  and  of  all  of  the  Executive  Committees  in 
every  church,  without  making  any  appeal  to  the  church  as  such  to  give.  This 
would  be  followed  by  a  personal  presentation  of  the  opportunity  to  take  part  in 
this  great  work  to  those  who  are  able  to  give  largely.  No  gifts  less  than 
$100.00  a  year  for  three  years  would  be  taken,  and  these  must  be  made  above 
and  beyond  regular  gifts,  to  the  church.  This  work  is  supplementary  to  the 
Every-Member-Canvass,  which  secures  from  all  the  members,  especially  those 
who  are  able  to  give  only  small  amounts,  gifts  each  week  to  all  the  causes,  but 
does  not  as  a  rule  secure  large  gifts,  from  those  of  larger  means.  All  subscrip- 
tions will  not  only  be  credited  to  the  individual  subscribing,  but  also  to  the 
church  to  which  the  subscriber  belongs. 

In  order  to  prevent  any  unsafe  additions  to  the  annual  expense  budget  of 
any  of  the  Executive  Committees,  the  following  rules  were  approved  to  guide 
those  who  take  part  in  this  campaign : 

1.  The  entire  fund  is  to  be  raised  through  personal  subscriptions  from 
individuals  or  groups  of  individuals,  the  general  rule  being  to  accept  no  gift 
of  less  than  $100.00  per  year  from  an  individual  or  group. 

2.  That  part  of  the  fund  which  provides  for  the  support  of  additional 
reinforcements  shall  be  pledged  upon  a  basis  of  continuous  support,  and  all 
such  pledges  must  be  acceptable  to  the  Executive  Committee  concerned.  The 
choosing,  appointment,  assignment  and  sending  out  of  all  reinforcements  shall  be 
entirely  in  the  hands  of  the  Executive  Committee  concerned  as  heretofore. 

3.  The  remainder  of  the  fund  shall  be  raised  in  subscriptions  payable 
through  three  years  from  April  ist,  1913. 

4.  All  subscriptions  shall  be  made  in  addition  to  and  not  in  reduction  of 
regular  gifts  heretofore  made  to  various  causes. 

The  following  list  shows  approximately  the  distribution  of  the  funds  to 
be  subscribed :

II.    women's  work. 

1.  That  the  Assembly  express  its  gratification  at  the  progress  made  in 
organizing  the  Women's  Work  of  the  Church. 

2.  That  the  Assembly  urge  upon  the  Women's  Societies  the  importance 
of  supporting  and  co-operating  with  this  movement. 

3.  That  the  Assembly  urge  upon  the  churches  that  in  the  future,  as  they 
develop  their  Women's  Work,  they  shall  organize  it  in  harmony  with  the  genius 
of  the  Assembly's  plan,  so  that  due  regard  shall  be  had  to  the  relative  needs  of 
each  of  the  four  Assembly's  causes;  but  that  this  shall  not  be  done  in  such  haste 
o*  in  such  a  manner  as  to  work  harm  to  the  interest  of  causes  that  are  already 
looking  to  them  for  certain  definite  support. 

4.  That  the  Assembly  grant  the  request  of  our  women,  that  their  contri- 
butions he  so  handled  as  to  make  it  possible  to  secure  accurate  statistics  of  their 
work,  and  that  the  Assembly  suggest  to  the  sessions  of  our  churches  that  they 
allow  the  treasurers  of  Women's  Societies,  where  they  desire  it,  to  forward 
their  funds  directly  to  the  treasurers  of  the  Executive  Committees,  only  re- 
porting the  same  to  the  church's  treasurer  of  benevolent  funds  for  record  and 
for  report  to  PresbyterJ^ 

III.      MISCELLANEOUS    RECOMMENDATIONS. 

1.  That  the  Assembly  grant  the  request  of  the  Permanent  Committee  that 
$500.00  be  appropriated  for  clerical  and  incidental  expenses  connected  with  the 
work  of  the  Permanent  Committee,  in  addition  to  the  amount  appropriated 
for  the  traveling  expenses  of  members  in  attendance  upon  Committee  meetings. 

2.  That  the  recommendations  of  the  Permanent  Committee  in  regard  to 
an  Educational  Secretary  be  approved,  with  a  slight  amendment.  It  is  as 
follows : 

"The  Assembly  of  1912  having  referred  to  this  Committee  the  advisability 
of  creating  the  office  of  an  Educational  Secretary,  whose  duties  should  be  in 
conjunction  with  the  four  Executive  Committees,  we  feel  that,  inasrpuch  as  the 
Executive  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions  has  a  Secretary  of  Education  and 
the  other  Executive  Committees  have  publicity  departments,  it  is  not  necessaiy 
to  create  the  additional  office,  and  therefore  we  recommend  that  educational 
matters  of  common  interest  to  the  four  Executive  Committees  be  referred  to 
the  Executive  Committees." 

3.  That  the  repeated  request  of  the  Executive  Committee  of  Publication 
and  Sabbath  School  Work  that  the  first  Sunday  in  October  be  adopted  as  Sunday 

•  School  Rally  Day,  be  granted. 

4.  That  the  Assembly  suggest  to  church  sessions  that  they  encourage  their 
people  in  making  free  will  offerings  for  the  beneficent  work  of  the  Church  over 


40  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

and   above   the   Every-Member-Canvass,    and   that   no   church   in   adopting  the 
Assembly's  plan  exclude  all  appeals  for  special  offerings. 

IV.      CONCERNING     THE     DUTIES     OF     THE     PERMANENT     COMMITTEE     ON     SYSTEMATIC 

BENEFICENCE. 

Overtures  Numbers  Z1,  38,  39,  41,  42,  43,  44,  45  have  been  received  from 
the  Presbyteries  of  Mecklenburg,  Red  River,  Muhlenburg,  Montgomery,  Dallas, 
Wilmington,  Concord,  and  Paducah,  requesting  the  Assembly  to  restore  in  full 
or  in  part  the  powers  which  were  taken  away  from  this  Committee  by  the 
last  Assembly;  also  Overture  No.  40  from  the  Presbytery  of  North  Mississippi, 
requesting  that  these  powers  be  not  restored;  and  an  Overture  No.  45-a  from 
the  Presbytery  of  Atlanta,  requesting  the  Assembly  "to  take  the  whole  matter 
of  the  Systematic  Beneficence  Committee  into  consideration  and  to  confer  on  it 
such  clearly  defined  power  as  will  enable  the  Commjttee  to  do  its  work  most 
effectively." 

In  answer  to  these  overtures,  we  recommend  that  the  Assembly  do  now 
define,  in  as  clear  and  explicit  language  as  possible,  all  the  duties  and  powers 
belonging  to  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence. 

1.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  this  Committee  to  study  with  care  the  work  of 
all  the  Assembly's  Executive  Committees  and  to  do  all  that  it  can  by  recom- 
mendations to  the  Assembly  to  co-ordinate,  unify  and  advance  the  work,  so  as 
to  bring  that  work  to  the  very  highest  state  of  efficiency  and  unity.  It  shall 
be  the  special  duty  of  this  Committee  to  stimulate  the  benevolent  activities  of 
the  Church  in  every  possible  legitimate  way. 

2.  With  these  ends  in  view,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  this  Committee  to  meet 
ar  least  once  each  year  for  conference  with  the  Executive  Secretaries  of  the 
Assembly,  at  which  meeting  the  work  and  needs  of  the  entire  Church  as  rep- 
resented by  the  Executive  Committees  shall  be  discussed. 

3.  In  order  to  increase  its  knowledge  and  thereby  its  efficiency,  this  Com- 
mittee may  have  access  to  the  books  and  files  of  the  various  Executive  Com- 
mittees, at  the  convenience  of  the  Committees,  but  may  have  no  power  to  direct 
the  work  of  these  Committees  or  Secretaries  except  by  way  of  suggestion. 

4.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  several  Executive  Committees  to  submit 
to  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  their  annual  reports 
by  April  22nd  of  each  year,  together  with  estimated  requirements  for  the 
ensuing  year,  the  reasons  therefor,  and  suggested  methods  for  securing  the 
same. 

5.  The  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  shall  meet  prior 
to  the  convening  of  the  General  Assembly,  carefully  consider  the  annual  reports 
of  the  several  Executive  Committees,  and  in  the  light  of  all  these  reports  and 
such  other  information  that  it  may  have,  submit  to  the  Assembly  its  recom- 
mendations concerning  ths  work  of  the  Executive  Committees  and  the  various 
causes  represented  by  them. 

6.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  this  Committee  to  submit  its  report  in  printed 
form  to  the  General  Assembly  as  soon  after  the  opening  of  the  Assembly  as- 
possible,  but  the  report  must  be  presented  to  each  Executive  Secretary  before  it 
is   finally  adopted  by  the   Committee,   and   each   Executive    Secretary   must   be 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  41 

granted  a  hearing  before  the  Committee,   if  he  so  desires,   before  the  report 
1.?  committed  to  print  or  presented  to  the  Assembly. 

7.  When  the  report  of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence 
is  presented  to  the  General  Assembly,  the  Assembly  may  consider  it  directly, 
without  reference  to  any  Standing  Committee,  or  it  may  refer  such  portions 
of  the  report  as  have  reference  to  the  several  Executive  Committees  to  the 
Standing  Committees  on  the  several  causes  represented  by  the  Executive  Com- 
mittees, and  the  remainder  of  the  report,  especially  all  such  items  as  affect  the 
work  of  two  or  more  Executive  Committees,  to  the  Assembly's  Standing  Com- 
mittee on  Systematic  Beneficence. 

8.  When  the  report  of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Benefi- 
cence, or  any  part  of  it,  is  referred  by  the  Assembly  to  any  Standing  Committee 
or  Special  Committee,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  that  Standing  or  Special  Committee 
to  report  back  to  the  Assembly  its  conclusions  concerning  every  recommendation 
made  by  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  in  their  report, 
or  in  the  section  of  the  report  which  was  referred  to  that  Special  or  Standing 
Committee. 

9.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Benefi- 
cence, after  the  most  careful  study  of  the  whole  situation,  to  nominate  to  the 
Assembly  suitable  names  for  members  of  the  several  Executive  Committees,  it 
being  fully  understood  that  this  does  not  take  away  the  right  of  any  individual 
member  of  the  Assembly  to  make  similar  nominations. 

10.  It  shall  also  be  the  duty  of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic 
Beneficence  to  nominate  to  the  Assembly  suitable  men  for  Executive  Secre- 
taries of  the  Assembly,  it  being  again  fully  understood  that  this  does  not  take 
away  the  right  of  any  individual  member  of  the  Assembly  to  make  similar 
nominations. 

11.  We  recommend  further  that  all  previous  definitions  of  the  duties  of 
this  Committee  which  are  in  conflict  with  the  foregoing  be  annulled,  the  an- 
nullment  to  take  effect  with  the  dissolution  of  this  Assembly. 

V.      MISCELLANEOUS   OVERTURES. 

Overture  46,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Atlanta,  requesting  the  Assembly  "to 
enlarge  the  description  of  those  monies  that  are  put  properly  in  the  column  of 
Local  Home  Missions  so  as  to  include  money  given  for  City  Mission  work, 
and  to  provide  a  separate  column  for  'Miscellaneous  Beneficence.' "  We  recom- 
mend that  it  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

Overture  50,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Nashville,  requesting  "that  when  the 
report  of  the  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  be  referred,  it  be  referred 
for  action  and  not  merely  as  information."  Answer :  The  Assembly  refers  the 
Presbytery  to  the  action  of  this  Assembly  as  to  the  disposition  which  shall 
be  made  of  the  Permanent  Committee's  report. 

Overture  T>)^  from  Chas.  H.  Maury,  Stated  Clerk  of  Pine  Bluff  Presbytery, 
requesting  the  Assembly  to  direct  the  Treasurers  of  the  Executive  Committees  to 
forward,  as  soon  as  practicable  after  March  31st  of  each  year,  to  the  Stated 
Clerks  of  all  the  Presbyteries  a  full  statement  of  the  contributions  from  their 
respective  Presbyteries  to  the  benevolent  causes  of  the  Assembly  during  the 
year.     Answer :     Inasmuch  as  this  involves  a  great  deal  of  clerical  work,  we 


42  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

recommend  that  the  whole  matter  be  left  to  the  discretion  of  each  Executive 
Committee. 

Overture  74,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Upper  Missouri,  requesting  the 
Assembly  to  require  all  Treasurers  of  the  Assembly's  Executive  Committees  to 
hold  their  books  open  till  April  the  15th  of  each  year.  Answer:  We  recommend 
that  this  overture  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

Overture  89,  from  the  Session  of  the  church  at  Canton,  Mississippi,  informs 
the  Assembly  that  a  certain  unnamed  Church  Society  has  used  methods  for 
raising  money  which  are  not  in  keeping  with  the  deliverances  of  the  Assembly 
on  this  subject  in  1888  and  1891,  and  requests  the  Assembly  "to  take  further 
action  as  to  what  methods  are  permissible  in  raising  funds  for  religious  pur- 
poses." Answer:  The  practice  of  the  particular  Society  is  a  matter  for  the 
session  of  that  particular  church  to  handle,  but  the  Assembly  would  again  urge 
the  churches  to  use  only  Scriptural  methods  in  the  raising  of  funds,  and  would 
reaffirm  the  deliverances,  of  past  Assemblies  on  this  point. 

VI.      NOMINATIONS.

MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  43 

The  following  telegram  was  received  from  the  Colored  Cumberland 
Presbyterian  Assembly: 

TELEGRAM  FROM  THE  COLORED  CUMBERLAND   PRESBYTERIAN 
GENERAL  ASSEMBLY. 

General  Assembly  of  U.  S.,  in  Session  in  Atlanta,  Ga.: 

Greetings.  Read  II.  Thess.  3:1,  "Finally,  brethren,  pray  for  us,  that  the 
word  of  the  Lord  may  have  free  course,  and  be  glorified  even  as  it  is  with 
you." 

General  Assembly  of  the  Colored  Cumberland  Presbyterian  Church. 

It  was  referred  to  the  Standing  Committee  on  Foreign  Corre- 
spondence. 

The  Select  Committee  to  whom  was  referred  the  report  of  the 
Ad  Interim  Committee  on  "A  Brief  Statement  of  Our  Belief"  and  the 
overtures  on  this  subject,  made  a  report.  Pending  its  consideration, 
the  hour  of  recess  arrived.  Rev.  G.  B.  Strickler,  D.  D.,  was  requested 
to  speak  on  the  pending  business,  the  consideration  of  the  Brief 
Statement. 

Before  taking  recess,  the  Assembly  permitted  the  following  bus- 
iness to  be  transacted : 

Elder  W.  S.  Weatherspoon,  alternate,  was  enrolled  as  the  Commis- 
sioner from  the  Presbytery  of  Fayetteville  in  place  of  E.  H.  William- 
son, the  principal,  who  was  called  home. 

The  Committee  on  Judicial  Business  made  a  report  on  the  complaint 
of  Robert  A.  Lively  vs.  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma.  The  report  was 
adopted  and  is  as  follows 

PARTIAL  REPORT  OF  THE  JUDICIAL  COMMITTEE. 

Your  Committee  respectfully  reports  to  your  venerable  body  as  follows : 

In  the  complaint  of  Robert  A.  Lively  and  others  your  Judicial  Committee 
finds  this  complaint  irregular  in  the  following  particulars : 

First.  There  is  no  official  "record"  of  the  cause  transmitted  to  this  court 
b>  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma,  as  required  by  Paragrph  189,  Rules  of  Discipline. 

Second.  The  complainant  failed  to  lodge  his  complaint  with  the  Stated 
Clerk  of  this  Assembly  before  the  second  day  of  its  sessions,  as  required  by 
Paragraphs  268  and  260. 

With  reference  to  the  second  irregularity,  your  Committee  finds  that 
the  complainant  was  providentially  hindered  from  reaching  this  court  on  time, 
and  that  he  presented  his  complaint  at  the  earliest  possible  time,  and  that  there- 
fore this  irregularity  should  be  waived. 

With  reference  to  the  first  irregularity,  we  find  that  the  attached  papers 
constitute  substantially  the  record,  though  they  are  not  officially  attested.  We  find 
further  that  Rev.  E.  Brantly,  representing  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma,  and  Mr. 
Orme,  representing  the  complainant,  desire  the  case  to  be  heard,  and  agree  to 
its  submission  on  the  basis  of  the  unofficial  record  attached. 

We,  therefore,  recommend 

(ist)  That  the  Assembly  waive  the  irregularity  noted  and  hear  the  case, 
as  provided  in  Book  of  Church  Order,  Paragraph  269. 

(2nd)     That  the  case  be  heard  through  a  Commission. 


44  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

(3rd)  That  the  steps  be  taken  in  their  order  by  the  Commission  as  pro- 
vided in  said  paragraph. 

(4th)  That  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma  be  solemnly  reminded  of  its  neglect 
in  not  sending  up  the  record  of  this  case,  as  provided  in  the  Book  of  Church 
Order,  and  that  they  be  urged  to  use  greater  care  in  the  future. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

R.  C.  Reed,  Chairman. 

The  Assembly  then  took  recess  until  2 :30  p.  m. 


AFTERNOON  SESSION. 


2:30  p.  m. 


The  Assembly  met. 
The  Moderator   appointed  the   following  Commission  to  try  the 
complaint  of  Robert  A.  Lively  vs.  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma : 

JUDICIAL  COMMISSION.

Foster,  Elder  W.  S.  McClanahan,  Rev.  Chas.  Morris,  Elder  E.  H. 
Campbell,  Rev.  Jos.  F.  Winnard,  Elder  E.  E.  Diggs,  Elder  A.  H. 
Whitmarsh.  Rev.  J.  T.  Wade,  Elder  T.  B.  Frye,  Rev.  C.  F.  Moore, 
Elder  W.  G.  Cowan,  Rev.  C.  S.  Sholl,  Elder  R.  A.  Dunn,  Rev.  R.  L. 
Campbell,  Elder  G.  W  Sims,  Elder  Cooper  Sansom,  Rev  C.  E.  Paxson, 
Elder  J.  M.  Patterson,  Rev.  C.  E.  Raynal,  Elder  Jas.  Ross,  Rev.  E.  L. 
Wilson,  Rev.  W.  T.  Palmer,  Rev.  W.  H.  Mills,  Elder  Geo.  Stewart, 
Rev.  R.  M.  DuBose,  Rev.  W.  H.  Groves,  Elder  J  A.  Bardwell. 

The  unfinished  business,  the  consideration  of  the  report  of  the 
Select  Committee  on  the  Brief  Statement,  was  resumed. 

The  report  was  adopted  as  a  whole  and  is  as  follows : 

REPORT   OF   SPECIAL  COMMITTEE  ON   THE  BRIEF   STATEMENT. 

We  recommend  to  the  General  Assembly  that  the  Brief  Statement  of  Belief 
submitted  by  the  Ad  Interim  Committee  be  approved  by  this  Assembly,  as 
amended  by  this  Committee,  for  general  information  and  distribution  as  a  tract, 
and  that  it  be  ordered  published  by  our  Executive  Committee  of  Publication, 
with  the  explanatory  note  of  the  Ad  Interim  Committee. 

Overtures  touching  the  Brief  Statement  have  come  into  our  hands  from 
the  Presbyteries  of  Bethel,  Harmony,  Central  Mississippi,  and  Wilmington. 
These  overtures  have  been  given  careful  consideration,  and  we  believe  are 
answered  in  the  above  recommendation. 

J.  M.  Wells,  Chairman. 
BRIEF  STATEMENT. 

A  Brief  Statement  of  Belief,  Drawn  from  the  Standards  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  the  United  States.  Prepared  by  a  Committee  appointed  by  the 
General  Assembly  at  Bristol,  May,  1912,  and  submitted  to  the  General  Assembly 
at  Atlanta,  May,  1913. 

Explanatory  Note. — Inasmuch  as  there  is  some  difference  of  opinion  con- 
cerning the  status  and  use  of  any  report  which  it  may  make,  this  Committee 
desires  to  state  that  it  does  not  understand  that  the  Assembly  instructed  it  to 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  45 

provide  a  statement  of  doctrine  which  shall  be  a  substitute  for,  or  an  addition 
or  an  amendment  to,  any  of  the  documents  contained  in  the  Constitution  of  the 
Church,  or  any  part  thereof. 

It  respectfully  suggests  that,  in  the  event  the  Assembly  approves  this  report, 
the  Statement  submitted  shall  be  referred  to  the  Executive  Committee  of 
Publication,  to  be  printed  and  circulated  as  may  be  deemed  best. 

A  BRIEF  STATEMENT  OF  BELIEF,  DRAWN   FROM   THE   STANDARDS   OF  THE  PRESBYTERIAN 
CHURCH  IN  THE  UNITED  STATES. 

/.  God. — God  is  is  spirit,  infinite,  eternal,  and  unchangeable ;  all  powerful, 
holy,  wise,  good,  true,  and  just,  hating  all  sin.  He  is  merciful  and  gracious, 
long  suffering,  and  abundant  in  goodness  and  truth,  not  willing  that  any  should 
perish  but  that  all  should  come  to  repentance.  This  truth  is  summed  up  in  the 
Bible  statement,  "God  is  love."  He  exists  in  three  persons.  Father,  Son,  and 
Holy  Spirit,  who  are  one  God,  the  same  in  substance,  equal  in  power  and  glory. 

//.  The  Bible. — The  Scriptures  of  the  Old  and  New  Testament,  written 
by  men  inspired  by  the  Holy  Spirit,  are  the  Word  of  God.  They  are  the  reve- 
lation of  God's  will  for  man  and  of  man's  dnty  to  God,  and  are  the  only  infallible 
and  authoritative  rule  of  faith  and  life. 

///.  God's  Purpose. — The  eternal  purpose  of  God  includes  all  events ;  it  is 
holy  and  wise,  and  does  not  deprive  man  of  freedom,  nor  make  God  the  author 
of  sin. 

IV.  Creation. — For  the  manifestation  of  His  own  glory,  God  created  the 
world  and  all  things  therein,  whether  visible  or  invisible,  and  all  very  good.  He 
made  man  after  His  own  image;  male  and  female  created  He  them,  with  im- 
mortal souls,  endowed  with  knowledge,  righteousness  and  holiness,  having  the 
law  of  God  in  their  hearts,  and  power  to  fulfil  it;  and  yet  under  a  possibility 
of  transgression,  being  left  to  the  freedom,  of  their  own  will. 

V.  Sin  and  the  Fall. — Sin  is  the  violation  of  God's  law,  either  by  omission 
or  commission.  Our  first  parents,  being  tempted  by  Satan,  disobeyed  God's 
command,  and  so  by  their  own  choice  fell  from  their  original  state  of  innocence 
and  communion  with  God,  and  came  under  the  power  of  sin,  the  penalty  of 
which  is  eternal  death.  All  men,  by  reason  of  their  relationship  to  Adam  as 
their  representative  head  and  common  ancestor,  are  born  with  a  sinful  nature 
from  which  all  actual  transgressions  proceed ;  and  out  of  this  condition  no  one 
is  able  to  deliver  himself. 

VI.  Salvation. — God,  who  is  rich  in  mercy,  so  loved  the  world  that  He 
gave  His  only  begotten  Son  to  be  the  Saviour  of  sinners.  The  salvation  thus 
provided  is  freely  offered  to  all  men,  and  is  sufficient  for  all,  but  becomes 
efficacious  only  in  those  who  believe  in  Jesus  Christ  unto  eternal  life. 

VII.  Election.— Beiore  the  foundation  of  the  world,  God  the  Father  chose 
unto  Himself  in  Christ  a  people  whom  He  gave  to  His  Son,  that  they  should  be 
holy  and  without  blame  before  Him  in  love.  Those  who  come  to  years  of 
discretion  receive  this  salvation  only  through  faith  in  Christ,  being  regenerated 
by  the  Holy  Spirit.  Those  who  die  in  infancy,  and  others  who  are  incapable 
of  exercising  choice,  are  regenerated  and  saved  by  Christ  through  the  Spirit 
who  works  when  and  where  and  how  He  pleases.    We  thus  declare  that  God's 


46  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

electing  grace  has  peopled  heaven  with  a  multitude  that  no  man  can  number, 
and  has  never  sent  one  soul  to  hell. 

VIII.  Christ  the  Redeemer. — The  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  being  the  eternal  Son 
of  God,  became  truly  man,  being  conceived  by  the  Holy  Ghost  and  born  of  the 
Virgin  Mary,  yet  without  sin ;  so  that  he  is  both  God  and  man,  and  the  only 
perfect  mediator  between  God  and  man,  by  whom  alone  we  can  come  unto  the 
Father.  By  a  life  of  perfect  obedience  and  by  His  sacrificial  death,  He  satisfied 
divine  justice,  made  a  perfect  atonement  for  sin,  and  reconciles  us  to  God. 
He  rose  from  the  dead  and  ascended  into  heaven,  where  He  makes  continual 
intercession  for  us;  and  He  sits  at  the  right  hand  of  God,  clothed  with  honor 
and  power,  subduing  His  people  unto  Himself,  ruling  and  defending  them,  and 
restraining  and  conquering  all  His  and  their  enemies.  He  will  come  again  to 
receive  and  reward  His  people,  and  to  judge  the  world. 

IX.  The  Holy  Spirit. — The  Holy  Spirit,  the  third  person  of  the  Godhead, 
applies  the  redemption  purchased  by  Christ.  He  persuades  and  enables  men  to 
obey  the  call  of  the  gospel,  and  dwells  continually  in  every  believer  as  the 
Spirit  of  truth,  of  holiness,  of  power  and  of  comfort,  and  is  thereby  the  author 
of  all  Christian  experience. 

X.  Justification  by  Faith. — Everyone  who  humbly  relies  upon  Christ  alone 
for  salvation  and  in  repentance  confesses  and  forsakes  his  sins,  is  pardoned 
and  accepted  as  righteous  in  God's  sight,  solely  on  the  ground  of  the  perfect 
obedience  and  sacrifice  of  Jesus  Christ.  Everyone  thus  pardoned  and  accepted 
i?  adopted  into  God's  family,  and  becomes  an  heir  of  God  and  a  joint  heir  with 
Jesus  Christ. 

XI.  The  Christian  Life. — The  Holy  Spirit  imparts  spiritual  life  by  the 
direct  operation  of  His  power;  so  that,  being  born  from  above,  we  are  the 
children  of  God,  created  in  Christ  Jesus  unto  good  works,  which  are  not  the 
ground  but  the  fruits  of  salvation.  Dwelling  in  Christ's  people,  He  purifies 
them  more  and  more  from  sin,  enables  them  to  render  a  cheerful  and  loving 
obedience  to  God's  commandments,  and  perseveres  in  His  sanctifying  work 
in  their  hearts  until  at  last  they  stand  perfect  in  the  presence  of  Christ  in 
glory.  Believers  may  at  times  backslide,  growing  indifferent  and  cold,  and  even 
falling  into  grievous  sins;  yet  God  does  not  cast  them  off,  but  chastens  them, 
and  restores  them  through  repentance  to  fellowship  with  Him. 

XII.  The  Church. — We  acknowledge  one  universal  Church,  the  same  in 
all  ages,  of  which  Christ  is  the  head.  The  Church  invisible  consists  of  all  the 
redeemed.  The  Church  visible  is  composed  of  all  those  throughout  the  world 
who  profess  faith  in  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  together  with  their  children,  and 
it  is  the  duty  of  all  believers  openly  to  profess  their  faith  by  uniting  with  the 
Church.  The  Church  exists  to  bring  to  Christ  those  whom  the  Father  has  given 
Him,  and  to  establish  the  Redeemer's  kingdom.  The  mission  of  the  Church  is 
spiritual,  and  its  work  is  to  witness  to  the  truth  of  God  to  the  ends  of  the 
earth,  and  to  preach  the  gospel  to  all  men  in  every  generation.  We  believe  in 
the  separation  of  Church  and  State.  The  Scriptural  form  of  Church  govern- 
ment is  by  elders  or  presbyters,  chosen  by  the  members  of  the  Church ;  but  we 
do  not  regard  the  form  of  government  of  a  Church  as  essential  to  its  existence. 
We  recognize  the  validity  of  the  ministry  and  sacraments  of  all  evangelical 
churches,  and  seek  the  unity  of  the  Spirit  in  the  bonds  of  peace.     Ministers, 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  47 

elders  and  deacons,  at  their  ordination,  are  required  to  subscribe  to  the  system 
of  doctrine  contained  in  our  standards,  but  the  sole  condition  for  membership 
i.i  the  Church  is  a  credible  confession  of  Christ  as  Saviour. 

XIII.  The  Sacraments. — There  are  two  sacraments,  baptism,  which  symbol- 
izes the  work  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  and  the  Lord's  Supper,  which  symbolizes  the 
sacrificial  death  of  Christ.  Sprinkling  or  pouring  is  the  Scriptural  mode  of  bap- 
tism, but  the  mode  is  not  essential  to  the  validity  of  the  sacrament.  Children  of 
believers,  before  reaching  the  age  of  personal  accountability,  are  to  be  baptized 
on  the  faith  of  their  parents,  zvho  in  the  sacramental  act  enter  into  formal 
covenant  relations  with  God.  We  invite  to  the  Lord's  table  all  who  love  Him 
in  sincerity  and  truth  and  who  are  in  good  and  regular  standing  in  evangelical 
churches. 

XIV.  Death  and  Resurrection. — The  souls  of  believers  are  at  their  death 
made  perfect  in  holiness ;  and  do  immediately  pass  into  glory,  and  their  bodies, 
being  still  united  to  Christ,  do  rest  in  the  grave  till  the  resurrection.  At  the 
resurrection,  believers  being  raised  up  in  glory,  shall  be  openly  acknowledged 
and  acquitted  in  the  day  of  judgment,  and  made  perfectly  blessed  in  the  full 
enjoyment  of  God  to  all  eternity;  but  the  wicked  shall  go  away  into  ever- 
lasting punishment. 

XV.  The  Final  State. — There  are  but  two  states  of  future  existence, 
heaven,  the  home  of  the  redeemed,  and  hell,  the  abode  of  the  finally  impenitent. 
There  is  no  purgatory,  nor  is  there  any  probation  after  death.  Man  retains 
his  identity  after  death,  and  there  will  be  recognition  in  the  future  life.  We 
believe  in  the  ultimate  and  complete  triumph  of  the  Saviour's  kingdom,  and 
with  all  His  followers  in  all  ages  we  toil  and  pray  for  the  speedy  coming  of  the 
day  when  our  glorious  Lord  shall  see  of  the  travail  of  His  soul  and  shall  be 
satisfied.

REPORT  OF  ASSEMBLY'S  CAMPAIGN  COMMITTEE  ON  EVANGELISM 
AND  STEWARDSHIP. 
Order  of  the  Assembly. — In  response  to  recommendations  of  the  Systematic 
Beneficence  Committee,  it  was  ordered  by  the  1912  General  Assembly  that  the 
four  Executive  Committees,  with  the  help  of  the  Laymen's  Missionary  Move- 
ment, take  in  hand  the  effort  to  have  every  church  in  the  Assembly  make  an 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  49 

Every-Member-Canvass  for  the  benevolent  causes  of  the  Church  during  the 
month  of  March,  1913,  enlisting  the  help  of  at  least  250  workers  in  the  educa- 
tional campaign  which  will  precede  the  Every-Member-Canvass  in  the  churches, 
and  that  the  goal  of  this  effort  be  the  raising  of  one  million  five  hundred 
thousand   dollars   for  the  benevolent  work  of  the  Assembly   during  the   year 

1913-14. 

That  the  four  Executive  Committees,  with  the  help  of  the  Laymen's  Mis- 
sionary Movement,  be  authorized  to  raise  as  a  part  of  this  one  and  one-half 
million  dollars,  five  hundred  thousand  as  a  special  equipment  fund.  This 
special  fund  to  be  prorated  among  the  four  Executive  Committees  according  to 
the  basis  recommended  by  the  Assembly. 

That  the  financial  effort  be  accompanied  by  an  earnest  evangelistic  effort 
on  the  part  of  all  pastors  and  members  of  our  Church  with  the  view  of  deepen- 
ing the  spiritual  life  of  the  Church  and  bringing  the  largest  possible  number 
of  souls  to  Christ. 

Organisation. — The  Executive  Committees  of  the  Assembly  and  of  the  Lay- 
men's Movement  appointed  two  men  each  to  be  on  the  Million  and  a  Half 
Campaign  Committee.  This  name  was  afterwards  changed  to  the  Assembly's 
Campaign  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship.  A  central  committee  of  five,  repre- 
senting each  Executive  Committee  and  the  Laymen's  Movement,  was  selected, 
and  each  man  on  this  committee  was  appointed  chairman  of  one  of  the  five  sub- 
committees on  Evangelism,  Literature,  Conferences,  Publicity,  and  Finance.  The 
Campaign  Committee  was  organized  as  follows :  Mr.  J.  P.  McCallie,  Chatta- 
nooga, was  elected  Chairman  and  Secretary  of  both  the  Central  and  General 
Campaign  Committees ;  Rev.  Lacy  L  Moffett,  of  China,  Field  Representative ; 
and  Mr.  Jno.  J.  Eagan,  of  Atlanta,  Treasurer. 

Sub-committees  as  follows : 

Evangelism. — Rev.  R.  O.  Flinn,  Rev.  A.  L.  Phillips,  Rev.  Henry  H.  Sweets, 
Chas.  A.  Rowland. 

Conferences — Chas.  A.  Rowland,  Rutherford  Lapsley,  E.  H.  Scharringhaus. 

Literature — Rev.  Henry  H.  Sweets,  Rev.  W.  W.  Akers,  Chas.  A.  Rowland. 

Publicity— R.  E.  Magill,  Rev.  Henry  H.  Sweets,  Rev.  A.  L.  Phillips. 

Finance- — Jno.  J.  Eagan,  E.  H.  Scharringhaus,  R.  E.  Magill. 

Equipment — Rev.  Homer  McMillan,  Rev.  Lacy  L  Moffett,  Chas.  A.  Rowland, 
J.  P.  McCallie. 

The  Educational  Campaign. — The  educational  campaign  planned  and  carried 
out  included  conferences  in  each  Presbytery  possible,  leaflets  and  other  literature 
printed  and  distributed,  and  many  letters  to  pastors,  officers,  and  representatives 
at  conferences.  Eighty-nine  conferences  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship  were 
held  in  75  different  Presbyteries  in  all  14  Synods  of  the  Assembly.  There  were 
12  conference  leaders  associating  with  them  over  300  conference  speakers.  In 
every  Presbytery  holding  a  conference,  a  conference  committee  was  appointed 
by  the  Presbytery  to  continue  after  the  conference  as  a  Campaign  Committee.  The 
conferences  were  in  four  sessions,  two  nights,  a  morning  and  an  afternoon,  the 
last  two  given  up  to  conferences  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship,  respectively, 
and  the  nights  to  inspirational  addresses. 

The  attendance  at  the  conferences  was  approximately  30,000  for  all  four 
sessions.    About  two  thousand  representatives  of  churches  signed  cards,  promis- 


50  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

ing  to  make  an  effort  to  have  their  churches  carry  out  the  evangelistic  program, 
and  about  fifteen  hundred  signed  cards,  promising  to  make  an  effort  to  have 
the  Every-Member-Canvass  conducted  in  their  churches.  Charts  were  used 
to  show  the  work  of  the  Executive  Committees,  and  also  to  show  what  had 
actually  been  accomplished  by  the  Presbytery  during  the  past  year  in  Evangelism 
and  Stewardship  of  means.  These  charts  giving  the  facts  about  each  church 
opened  the  eyes  of  many  and  were  most  helpful  in  stirring  up  an  earnest  spirit 
to  overcome  the  past  indifference.  There  were  twelve  different  leaflets,  totaling 
over  100,000  copies,  printed  espcially  for  this  campaign  and  distributed  at  the 
conferences,  besides  many  other  leaflets  descriptive  of  the  work  of  the  different 
Executive  Committees  and  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship. 

More  than  12,000  letters  were  written  to  pastors,  clerks  of  sessions,  chairmen 
of  Beneficence  Committees,  representatives  of  churches  at  conferences,  to  Pres- 
byterial  Committees,  and  to  delegates  at  the  Memphis  Convention,  asking  for 
co-operation  in  aggressive  evangelistic  work  and  in  getting  the  Assembly's  plan 
of  beneficence  adopted  and  the  Every-Member-Canvass  conducted. 

Tlie  Evangelistic  Work. — Two  special  leaflets  were  printed  for  this  part  of 
the  campaign :  "The  Greatest  Privilege  in  the  World,"  by  Dr.  A.  L.  Phillips, 
and  "The  Evangelistic  Pastor,"  by  Dr.  Egbert  W.  Smith.  These  leaflets  were 
sent  to  all  pastors  and  seminary  students.  Letters  were  written  to  every  pastor 
in  the  Assembly  setting  forth  facts  with  reference  to  the  small  increase  in  mem- 
bership in  the  past. 

An  evangelistic  program  for  the  individual  church,  containing  seven  different 
heads,  was  printed  and  distributed.  A  questionaire  on  Evangelism  was  con- 
structed, using  this  program  as  a  basis,  and  great  interest  was  shown  in  all  the 
evangelistic  conferences.  The  morning  session  given  up  to  the  discussion  of 
this  questionaire  and  evangelistic  program  never  proved  sufficiently  long  to 
cover  the  ground. 

The  2,000  representatives  at  the  conferences  who  promised  to  make  an  effort 
to  have  evangelistic  services  conducted  in  their  churches  have  been  written  to 
and  will  be  followed  up. 

To  these  conferences  and  appeals  there  has  been  a  hearty  response  and  a 
general  renewed  effort  at  evangelism  throughout  the  Church.  Reports  of  many 
different  special  evangelistic  services  have  come  in,  and  it  is  believed  that  the 
conferences  are  bearing  fruit  in  this  direction  that  amply  repays  all  the  effort 
put  forth. 

The  Simultaneous  Every-Member-Canvass. — The  Simultaneous  Every-Mem- 
ber-Canvass was  planned  for  March,  1913.  Special  literature  and  letters  were 
sent  out  in  preparation  of  this  canvass.  Exhibits  on  the  canvass  and  the  work 
of  the  Beneficence  Committee  were  held  at  the  conferences.  A  leaflet,  "How  to 
Conduct  an  Every-Member-Canvass,"  was  printed  and  widely  distributed.  This 
leaflet,  together  with  samples  of  Duplex  Envelopes,  Pledge  Cards,  and  an  explan- 
atory letter,  enclosing  blanks  for  report  of  canvass  and  return  postal  to  give 
information  as  to  whether  the  canvass  would  be  held,  was  sent  to  every  minister 
and  every  clerk  of  session  in  every  church  in  the  Assembly.  Complete  reports 
have  not  yet  come  in.  Many  have  come  in,  and  indicate  a  splendid  response  all 
over  the  Church.  Many  churches  that  had  never  before  undertaken  the  canvass 
have  done  so  during  March.     Of  those  churches   reporting  whether  they  will 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  51 

undertake  the  canvass  or  not,  88%  are  in  the  affirmative.  Of  these  22%  are 
conducting  the  canvass  for  the  first  time.  These  are  only  preliminary  reports, 
but  they  give  some  indication  of  the  nature  of  the  final  report.  Those  reports 
of  the  results  of  the  canvass  that  have  come  in  are  most  encouraging,  indicating 
an  increase  of  100%  over  last  year's  gifts  to  Assembly's  causes.  It  must  be 
remembered,  too,  that  these  pledges  do  not  include  gifts  of  societies,  organiza- 
tions and  Sunday  Schools,  or  special  donations,  all  of  which  would  largely 
increase  the  above  percentage. 

The  Presljyterian  Committee  of  Publication  reports  that  the  orders  from  the 
churches  for  Duplex  Envelopes,  both  at  the  Richmond  and  Texarkana  offices, 
are  double  those  of  any  previous  year.  An  earnest  effort  is  being  made  to 
secure  a  report  from  every  church  that  has  conducted  an  Every-Member-Canvass 
that  the  total  pledged  for  Assembly's  causes  may  be  known.  By  the  time  of 
the  meeting  of  the  Assembly  about  800  churches  were  reported  as  having  con- 
ducted an  Every-Member-Canvass.  These  churches,  however,  have  more  than 
40%  of  the  total  membership. 

The  Canvass  for  Special  Equipment. — The  canvass  for  the  Special  Equipment 
Fund  of  $500,000  was  of  necessity  left  as  the  last  part  of  this  campaign.  A 
Special  Committee  on  Equipment  Canvass  reported  favorably  on  the  increase 
of  the  total  amount  from  $500,000  to  $1,000,000,  so  as  to  include  reinforcement 
on  all  mission  fields  at  home  and  abroad  as  well  as  equipment.  As  an  indica- 
tion of  the  favor  with  which  this  proposition  was  met,  an  expense  fund  with 
which  to  conduct  the  canvass  for  one  year  has  been  raised,  so  that  the  Execu- 
tive Committees  may  not  be  handicapped  by  increased  burdens. 

The  Canvass  for  Equipment  and  Reinforcement  at  Home  and  Abroad. — It  is 
planned  that  a  team  of  four  or  five  missionaries  or  representatves  of  mission 
work  visit  every  center  of  Presbyterianism  and  present  the  work  and  the  oppor- 
tunities in  all  the  fields  of  all  the  Executive  Committees  in  every  church  without 
making  any  appeal  whatever  to  the  church  as  such  to  give.  This  would  be 
followed  up  by  a  personal  presentation  of  the  opportunity  to  take  part  in  this 
great  work  to  those  who  are  able  to  give  largely.  No  gifts  less  than  $100  a 
year  for  three  years  would  be  taken,  and  these  must  be  made  above  and  beyond 
regular  gifts  through  ordinary  Church  channels.  This  work  is  supplementary  to 
the  Every-Member-Canvass,  which  secures  from  all  the  members,  especially  those 
who  are  able  to  give  only  small  amounts,  gifts  each  week  to  all  causes,  but  does 
not  as  a  rule  secure  large  gifts  from  those  of  larger  means.  All  subscriptions 
will  not  only  be  credited  to  the  individual  subscribing,  but  to  the  church  to 
which  the  subscriber  belongs. 

In  order  to  prevent  any  unsafe  additions  to  the  annual  expense  budget  of 
any  one  of  the  Assembly's  Executive  Committees,  the  follov/ing  rules  were 
approved  to  guide  those  who  take  part  in  this  campaign : 

1.  The  entire  fund  is  to  be  raised  through  personal  subscriptions  from 
individuals  or  groups  of  individuals,  the  general  rule  being  to  accept  no  sub- 
scriptions of  less  than  $100  per  year  from  an  individual  or  group. 

2.  That  part  of  the  fund  which  provides  for  the  support  of  additional  re- 
inforcements shall  be  pledged  upon  a  basis  of  continuous  support,  and  all  such 
pledges  must  be  acceptable  to  the  Executive  Committee  concerned.    The  choosing.

appointment,  assignment,  and  sending  out  of  all  reinforcements  shall  be  entirely 
in  the  hands  of  the  Executive  Committee  concerned  as  heretofore. 

3.  The    remainder    of   the    fund    shall   be    raised   in    subscriptions   payable 
through  three  years  from  April  ist,  1913. 

4.  All  subscriptions  shall  be  made  in  addition  to  and  not  in  reduction  of 
regular  gifts  heretofore  made  to  the  various  causes.

J.  P.  McCallie,  Secretary. 

The  records  of  the  Synods  of  Kentucky,  Mississippi,  and  Tennessee 
were  approved. 

The  following  resolution  was  offered  by  Rev.  D.  S.  Gage  and 
adopted :  That  the  action  of  this  Assembly  ordering  the  election  of 
field  and  other  secretaries  of  the  Executive  Committees  (other  than 
the  Executive  Secretaries)  by  the  Assembly  on  nomination  by  the 
Executive  Committees  do  not  go  into  effect  till  next  ecclesiastical  year. 

The  order  of  the  day,  the  hearing  of  the  report  of  the  Standing 
Committee  on  Foreign  Missions,  was  taken  up.  The  report  was  con- 
sidered seriatim.  The  item  relating  to  the  resignation  of  Rev.  J.  H. 
McNeilly,  D.  D.,  as  a  member  of  the  Committee,  was  adopted  by  a 
rising  vote.  The  Assembly  was  then  led  in  prayer  by  Rev.  J.  H.  Lacy, 
D.  D.,  on  behalf  of  Dr.  McNeilly. 

Pending  the  final  adoption  of  the  report,  the  Assembly  heard  Rev. 
S.  M.  Erickson,  missionary  to  Japan,  and  Rev.  D.  W.  Richardson, 
missionary  to  China. 

The  report  was  then  adopted  as  a  whole.  And  the  Assenibly  was 
led  in  prayer  by  the  Moderator  for  a  blessing  on  the  work  of  Foreign 
Missions. 

The  report  is  as  follows  : 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  53 

FOREIGN  MISSIONS. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Foreign  Missions,  having  had  referred  to  it  the 
Annual  Report  and  the  Minutes  of  the  Executive  Committee;  so  much  of  the 
report  of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Systematic  Beneficence  as  bears  on 
Foreign  Missions ;  and  Overtures  Nos.  49,  53,  54,  55,  and  56,  from  the  Presby- 
teries of  Kanawha  and  Bethel,  the  Synod  of  Alabama,  and  the  Presbytery  of 
Winchester,  respectively;  and  having  considered  carefully  all  these  documents 
and  conferred  with  all  brethren  who  sought  an  interview  with  us,  respectfully 
present  the  following  report : 

A  number  of  facts  combine  to  make  this  the  most  remarkable  year  in  the 
history  of  our  Foreign  Mission  work — the  immense  increase  in  the  amount 
contributed  by  the  Church  for  this  cause  over  any  sum  heretofore  given;  the 
obliteration  of  a  most  distressing  and  disheartening  debt  which  has  been  carried 
for  years ;  the  beginning  of  the  year  with  a  balance  in  hand ;  the  reorganization 
of  the  work  in  the  interest  of  greater  efficiency  and  promise ;  the  sending  out 
of  the  largest  number  of  missionaries  ever  sent  out  by  our  Church  in  any  one 
year ;  the  sustained  blessing  of  God  upon  the  work  in  the  field,  resulting  in 
larger  opportunities,  an  accession  to  the  Church  of  three  thousand,  one  hundred 
and  eighty-five  (3,185)  souls;  the  preservation  of  our  work  and  workers  from 
serious  injury  and  hindrance,  by  persecution,  war,  political  distraction,  or  other 
causes ;  and  a  gracious  awakening  in  the  home  Church  to  the  joy  of  a  greater 
ministry  to  the  world.  It  is  not  necessary  to  repeat  here  all  that  is  contained 
in  the  Annual  Report  of  the  Executive  Committee,  an  abstract  of  which  is  to 
be  printed  in  the  Appendix  of  the  Minutes  of  the  Assembly,  but  a  few  things 
should  be  selected  for  special  mention. 

The  very  large  offering  of  $631,069.00,  which  changes  a  deficit  of  $104,568.00 
of  a  year  ago  into  a  surplus  of  $7,557.00  this  year,  has  overspread  our  whole 
Church  with  exuberant  rejoicing  and  devout  thanksgiving. 

Of  the  forty-one  new  missionaries  sent  out  during  the  past  year,  fourteen 
went  to  Africa,  twenty  to  Korea,  five  to  China,  and  two  to  Brazil.  The  mis- 
sionaries sent  to  Korea  give  that  field  all  the  force  it  needs  there  at  present, 
except  one  doctor  and  one  male  teacher.  The  tw'enty  sent  to  Africa  are  all  that 
can  be  judiciously  used  there  at  the  present  time,  except  two  doctors  and  two 
trained  nurses.  While  it  is  a  source  of  profound  gratitude  that  two  of  our 
most  important  fields  have  so  nearly  their  full  complement  of  workers,  it  is  an 
equally  profound  disappointment  that  so  little  has  been  done  to  meet  the 
phenomenal  demands  of  China. 

We  have  carefully  read  the  minutes  of  the  Executive  Committee,  and  find 
them  kept  with  pleasing  neatness  and  correctness,  and  they  show  that  the  bus- 
iness is  transacted  in  a  thorough,  painstaking  and  judicious  manner.  The 
financial  statement  is  complete  and  satisfactorj',  and  the  financial  administration 
is  so  able  that  the  expense  of  conducting  the  business  is  only  5.04%  of  the 
monies  handled,  the  average  cost  of  administering  such  enterprises  being  8%,  and 
our  own  being  the  lowest  of  which  we  have  any  knowledge. 

We  submit  the  following  recommendations : 

(i)  That  the  Assembly  place  on  record  its  profound  gratitude  to  the 
Head  of  the  Church  for  the  passing  of  dark  clouds  and  for  the  brighter  promise 


54  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

of  today,  and  express  its  sympathy  with  the  joy  felt  throughout  the  Church 
over  this  gracious  consummation. 

(2)  In  view  of  the  payment  of  the  debt  and  the  adoption  of  wise  safe- 
guards against  the  recurrence  of  debt  in  the  future,  and  in  view  of  the  enthu- 
siasm recently  awakened  throughout  the  Church,  and  the  spiritual  blessing  that 
has  followed  labors,  self-denial  and  prayers,  we  recommend  that  the  Assembly 
urge  all  the  lower  courts.  Synods,  Presbyteries  and  Sessions,  on  the  one  hand 
to  avail  themselves  of  every  proper  means  to  guard  against  reaction,  and  on 
the  other  hand  to  utilize  the  new  zeal  as  a  means  of  pressing  forward  to  still 
more  glorious  results,  and  souud  a  note  of  new  confidence  and  consecration 
form  every  pulpit  in  the  Church. 

(3)  That  the  Assembly  also  record  here,  as  it  has  already  done  elsewhere, 
its  grateful  appreciation  of  and  admiration  for  the  splendid  part  the  women 
of  the  Church  have  taken  in  this  work. 

(4)  Touching  the  overtures  referred  to  this  Committee  as  follows :  No. 
49,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Kanawha,  asking  for  the  appointment  of  more  elders 
on  the  Executive  Committee;  No.  53,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Bethel,  asking 
for  greater  security  against  debt  in  future;  Nos.  54  and  55,  from  the  Synod 
of  Alabama,  touching  the  payment  of  the  debt  and  the  prevention  of  debt  in 
the  future;  No.  56,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Winchester,  asking  for  the  removal 
of  the  Committee  to  Charlotte,  N.  C,  the  Committee  recommends  that  the  fol- 
lowing answer  be  returned,  as  covering  all  of  these  overtures : 

In  view  of  the  fact  that  the  debt  has  been  paid  and  also  the  declared  policy 
of  the  Executive  Committee,  which  has  been  so  successfully  followed  since  the 
last  Assembly,  no  action  is  necessary  in  consequence  of  these  overtures. 

(5)  Notwithstanding  the  fact  that  the  Assembly  has  already  acted  upon 
the  subjects  now  to  be  presented,  in  connection  with  the  report  of  the  Committee 
on  Systematic  Beneficence,  we  deem  those  subjects  of  sufficient  importance  to  be 
repeated,  and  recommend  that  the  Assembly  again  put  on  record  the  following: 

"In  order  to  remove  an  erroneous  impression  on  the  subject,  we  recommend 
that  the  General  Assembly  declare  that  its  new  financial  plan  neither  necessitates 
nor  contemplates  the  reduction  of  contributions  heretofore  made  by  societies, 
churches  or  individuals  to  any  cause,  but  rather  the  enlistment  in  behalf  of  the 
other  causes,  of  our  people's  heretofore  unusued  means  and  energies. 

"The  Foreign  Mission  Committee,  as  a  result  of  investigation  into  actual 
cost,  fix  twelve  hundred  dollars  as  the  amount  necessary  to  be  raised  for  the 
annual  support  of  each  missionary  sent  out,  in  addition  to  the  expense  of  travel 
and  equipment.  We  recommend  that  those  supporting  missionaries  be  urged 
by  the  Assembly,  as  soon  as  possible,  to  come  up  to  this  standard." 

(6)  Your  Committee  would  again  call  the  attention  of  the  General  As- 
sembly to  the  Special  Donation  Fund.  The  last  Assembly  directed  that  this 
fund  be  regarded  as  a  specific  trust,  and  gave  other  directions,  as  found  in 
Recommendation  i  of  the  Standing  Committee's  Report,  in  1912.  We  do  not 
feel  that  the  Executive  Committee  can  have  understood  the  direction  of  the 
Assembly  of  1912. 

We  insist  that  this  fund  is  a  trust  fund,  in  a  more  special  sense  than 
other  contributions  to  Foreign  Missions.  The  donor,  whatever  the  terms  of 
the  contract  may  be,  has  a  further  moral  claim  to  secure  payment  of  the  in- 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  55 

terest  during  the  life  of  the  donor.  The  Committee's  obligation  to  pay  this 
does  differ  from  its  other  expenses  of  conducting  the  work,  and  we  fear  that 
the  statements  as  incorporated  in  the  Committee's  report  will  be  a  barrier  in 
the  way  of  securing  further  donations  to  this  fund. 

We  recommend  that  this  Assembly  reiterate  the  recommendation  of  1912 
touching  this  fund,  and  that  the  interest  on  said  fund  shall  constitute  a  first 
charge  against  the  income  of  the  Committee. 

(7)  The  Executive  Committee,  not  having  complied  with  the  recommenda- 
tion of  the  last  Assembly  touching  the  publication  in  the  annual  report  of  a 
detailed  statement  showing  the  material  equipment  of  each  mission  station 
because  the  difficulty  of  the  task  has  prevented  the  completion  of  it  in  time,  we 
recommend  that  more  time  be  granted. 

(8)  While  approving  of  the  assumption  by  individuals,  churches  or  societies 
of  special  responsibility  for  special  parts  of  the  work,  the  Assembly  would  urge 
donors  giving  in  this  way  to  select  only  those  objects  that  have  been  approved 
and  recommended  by  the  Executive  Committee.  The  adoption  of  all  new  enter- 
prises looking  to  the  enlargement  of  the  work  is  the  function  of  the  Executive 
Committee,  and  the  Committee  is  advised  in  planning  its  work  for  the  coming 
year  to  use  all  possible  precaution  to  preserve  the  symmetry  of  our  work  as  a 
whole,  and  to  give  each  separate  field  due  consideration,  both  as  to  intrinsic 
and  relative  importance  and  needs. 

(9)  The  Assembly  records  with  deep  sorrow  the  death  of  Mrs.  J.  P. 
Mooney  and  Mrs.  S.  L  Woodbridge,  of  the  Mid-China  Mission;  Mrs.  A.  T. 
Graj'bill,  of  the  Mexico  Mission,  and  Miss  Ella  Houston,  of  the  Japan  Mission, 
and  its  great  regret  at  the  retirement  of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  M.  C.  Harding,  Rev. 
and  Mrs.  A.  M.  Earle,  Dr.  W.  H.  Forsythe  and  Miss  Jean  Forsythe,  from  the 
work  in  Korea ;  of  Dr.  J.  G.  Prichard,  from  the  work  in  Africa ;  Dr.  R.  M. 
Stephenson,  from  the  work  in  China ;  Rev.  and  Mrs.  F.  H.  Wardlaw,  Rev.  and 
Mrs.  J.  H.  Gruver,  and  Mrs.  Eloise  Wardlaw  Thomson,  from  the  work  in  Cuba. 

(10)  The  terms  of  office  of  Messrs.  C.  A.  Rowland  and  W.  G.  Adams  as 
members  of  the  Executive  Committee  having  expired,  we  recommend  that  each 
of  these  gentlemen  be  elected  to  succeed  himself  for  a  term  of  three  years; 
and  the  term  of  the  Rev.  J.  H.  McNeilly,  D.  D.,  having  also  expired,  and  he 
having  requested  that  he  be  not  re-elected,  your  Committee  reluctantly  recom- 
mend that  his  request  be  granted  and  that  Mr.  E.  H.  Scharinghaus,  of  Knox- 
ville,  Tenn.,  be  elected  to  succeed  Dr.  McNeilly  for  a  term  of  three  years. 

(11)  Dr.  McNeilly  having  been  a  member  of  the  Executive  Committee 
continuously  since  i88g,  when  the  Committee  was  moved  to  Nashville,  and  he 
having  proved  in  all  that  time  most  devoted  and  intelligent  in  the  discharge  of 
the  responsible  and  exacting  duties  of  the  place,  devout  in  spirit,  faithful  in 
service,  wise  in  counsel,  instant  in  prayer,  inspiring  in  courage,  tender  and 
strong  in  his  attachment  to  the  cause,  we  recommend  that  a  copy  of  this  para- 
graph be  conveyed  to  him  by  the  Stated  Clerk  of  the  Assembly  as  an  expression 
of  the  affectionate  appreciation  in  which  he  is  held  by  the  Church,  accompanied 
by  the  thanks  of  the  Assembly  and  an  assurance  of  its  prayer  for  the  divine 
blessing  upon  him  throughout  the  remainder  of  his  life. 

(12)  The  Rev.  Drs.  J.  W.  Bachman  and  C.  R.  Hemphill  having  resigned 
from  the  Committee  and  their  resignations  having  been  accepted,  we  recommend 


S6  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

that  the  Rev.  A.  B.  Curry,  D.  D.,  of  Memphis,  Tenn.,  be  elected  to  succeed  Dr. 
Bachman,  and  the  Rev.  H.  M.  Edmonds,  of  Birmingham,  be  elected  to  succeed 
Dr.  Hemphill,  each  for  two  years,  the  unexpired  term  of  his  predecessor. 

(13)  Whereas  the  Assembly  of  1905  (see  Alexander's  Digest,  1911,  page 
392)  adopted  the  policy  of  limiting  the  membership  of  the  Executive  Committee 
to  fifteen,  but  the  policy  has  not  been  consistently  pursued;  and  whereas  the 
expanding  work  of  the  Committee  seems  to  require  now  a  larger  membership 
to  transact  the  business  satisfactorily,  we  recommend  that  the  Assembly  add 
to  that  Committee  the  Rev.  Josiah  Sibley,  of  Knoxville,  Tenn.,  for  a  term  of 
three  years. 

(14)  That  in  order  to  maintain  the  policy  of  dividing  the  Executive  Com- 
mittee into  three  equal  classes,  whose  terms  of  ofnce  expire  at  different  times, 
we  recommend  that  the  Rev.  J.  F.  Cannon,  D.  D.,  and  Prof.  J.  D.  Blanton  be 
transferred  to  the  class  whose  term  of  service  is  three  years  from  this  date, 
and  that  the  Executive  Committee  be  instructed  in  making  up  its  annual  report 
hereafter  to  indicate '  clearly  the  length  of  the  terms  of  those  whose  time 
expires,  in  order  that  the  Assembly  may  maintain  at  least  approximately  the 
equality  in  number  of  the  three  classes. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

A.  M.  Eraser,  Chairman. 

The  Committee  on  Foreign  Correspondence  presented  the  follovv^ing 
telegram  to  the  Colored  Cumberland  Presbyterian  Assembly,  which 
was  adopted  and  ordered  forwarded  to  that  body : 

FOREIGN  CORRESPONDENCE. 
To    the   General  Assembly   of   the   Colored   Cumberland   Presbyterian    Church, 
in  Session  at  Nashville,  Tenn. : 

We  send  your  cordial  Christian  greetings.  Read  II.  Cor.  9  :8,  "God  is  able 
to  make  all  grace  abound  toward  you ;  that  ye  always  having  all  sufficiency  in 
all  things  may  abound  to  every  good  work." 

Thornton  Whaling,  Chairman. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  the  Bible  Cause  presented  a  report. 
Pending  its  consideration,  the  Assembly  heard  Rev.  John  Fox,  D.  D., 
Corresponding  Secretary  of  the  American  Bible  Society. 

The  report  was  then  adopted  and  is  as  follows  : 

BIBLE  CAUSE. 

Your  Standing  Committee  on  the  Bible  Cause  would  report  that  the  only 
papers  placed  in  its  hands  are  the  report  of  the  Permanent  Committee  and  a 
letter  from  the  late  Rev.  James  McDowell,  D.  D.,  the  latter  urging  that  in- 
creased effort  be  made  in  translating  and  circulating  the  Bible  in  foreign 
tongues. 

The  report  of  the  Permanent  Committee,  which  has  already  been  received 
and  read  in  the  General  Assembly,  after  emphasizing  the  importance  of  the 
Bible  as  the  Word  of  God  and  the  only  infallible  rule  of  faith  and  practice, 
urges  that  every  effort  be  made  to  increase  its  circulation  both  in  this  and 
foreign  lands ;  and  that  a  larger  number  of  copies  be  printed  to  meet  the 
increased  demand. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  57 

Your  Committee  would  recommend  the  adoption  of  the  Permanent  Com- 
mittee's recommendation,  viz:  "The  Committee  would,  therefore,  in  view  of  the 
peculiar  attitude  of  our  Church  toward  this  work,  and  the  splendid  service 
which  the  American  Bible  Society  is  rendering  to  us  in  it,  heartily  commend  this 
great  cause  to  the  sympathy,  the  prayers,  and  the  liberal  support  of  all  our 
people." 

Your  Committee  would  also  recommend  that  the  Assembly  urge  all  our 
members  to  earnestly  endeavor  and  exert  their  influence  to  introduce  the  use 
of  the  Bible  in  all  families,  among  traveling  men,  in  schools  and  colleges  and 
elsewhere  where  it  is  not  already  in  use. 

Dr.  Thos.  H.  Law,  after  a  long  service  on  the  Permanent  Committee,  has 
requested  that  he  be  relieved  and  a  new  Committee  be  appointed.  In  compliance 
with  this  request,  your  Committee  would  recommend  that  the  following;  Perma- 
nent Committee  on  the  Bible  Cause  be  appointed :  Rev.  M.  B.  Porter,  Chairman ; 
Rev.  T.  R.  English,  D.  D.,  Rev.  E.  B.  McCluer,  D.  D.,  Elders  D.  K.  Kellogg 
and  W.  S.  Rhoads.  Henry  V.  Escott,  Chairman. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Home  Missions  m.ade  a  report.  Pend- 
ing its  consideration,  the  Assembly  heard  Mr.  George  W.  Crabtree, 
Prison  Evangelist;  Rev.  Silas  L.  Bacon,  of  the  old  Goodland  Orphan's 
Home ;  Rev.  I.  C.  H.  Champney,  D.  D.,  pastor  of  the  Colored  Presby- 
terian Church,  Montgomery,  Ala. ;  and  Rev.  J-  G.  Snedecor,  Superin- 
tendent of  work  among  the  colored  people.  An  offering  amounting  to 
$75.00  was  made  for  the  old  Goodland  Orphan's  Home. 

The  report  was  adopted  as  a  whole  and  is  as  follows : 

HOME  MISSIONS. 
Your  Standing  Committee  on  Home  Missions  report  as  follows : 
The  Minute   Book  of  the   Executive  Committee   of   Home   Missions,   their 
Annual  Report,  and  a  number  of  overtures  from  several  Presbyteries,  together 
with  the  address  of  Judge  McKenzie  Cleland  on  Prison   Reform,  were  placed 
in  our  hands. 

The  Minute  Book  we  find  has  been  properly  kept,  and  neatly  recorded. 
The  Annual  Report  of  the  Executive  Committee  brings  before  us  many 
things  worthy  of  note.  The  work  of  that  Committee  is  so  varied  and  the  field 
so  large,  the  opportunities  so  great  and  the  need  so  pressing,  that  no  more 
important  matter  can  be  brought  before  the  Assembly.  The  time  is  come  for 
this  Assembly  to  laj^  special  stress  on  developing  the  Home  Mission  field.  Every 
church  helped  to  the  point  of  self-support  helps  all  the  causes  of  the  Church. 
It  would  be  a  colossal  mistake  not  to  press  forward  in  all  the  departments  now 
under  the  care  of  the  Home  Mission  Committee. 

We  call  your  attention  to  certain  things  in  the  Annual  Report : 
(i)  "The  signal  favor  of  God  was  never  more  manifest  than  is  evidenced 
by  the  results  of  this  year's  work.  The  total  contributions  of  the  previous  year 
were  $125,787.17,  whilst  the  receipts  of  the  present  year  reached  $154,210.77, 
showing  a  gratifying  increase  of  $28,423.60.  More  than  four  hundred  and  twenty- 
five  missionaries,  not  counting  their  wives  and  children,  but  including  mission 
teachers,  were  employed  and  supported  in  whole  or  in  part,  ministering  to  over 
six  hundred  churches  and  mission  stations." 


58  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

This  is  the  largest  amount  of  money  ever  expended  by  the  Assembly  in 
the  Home  Mission  field.  However  the  Home  Mission  field  has  been  greatly 
enlarged  in  its  scope.    It  nowr  includes  the  following: 

(i),  Evangelistic;  (2),  Sustentation ;  (3),  Mountains;  (4),  Frontier;  (5), 
Colored  Evangelization;  (6),  Foreign  Speaking;  (7),  Mission  Schools;  (8), 
Church  Erection. 

The  Executive  Committee  has  tried  to  arouse  an  interest  in  the  whole 
Church  in  evangelistic  work  through  the  Home  Mission  Committees  of  the 
Presbyteries  and  through  the  Presbyteries  themselves. 

"Of  the  eighty-five  Presbyteries  of  our  Assembly  exactly  forty  received 
assistance  in  some  form  during  the  year;  at  least  twenty-five  were  assisted  in 
the  support  of  Presbyterial  or  Pastor  Evangelists." 

The  Committee  asked  the  Presbyteries  to  hold  an  evangelistic  meeting  in 
each  church  during  the  year.    They  also  called  for  volunteer  evangelists. 

The  Committee  and  the  Assembly  lost  by  death  during  the  year  the  splendid 
services  of  Rev.  J.  T.  Plunket,  D.  D.,  who  had  served  faithfully  on  this 
Committee  for  some  ten  years.  The  Committee  has  placed  on  its  records  a 
suitable  memorial.  Mr.  W.  R.  Hoyt  was  elected  to  fill  the  vacancy  caused  by 
the  death  of  Dr.  Plunket. 

In  obedience  to  the  Assembly's  action,  the  Executive  Committee  elected  Dr. 
Homer  McMillan  as  Secretary  to  assist  Dr.  Morris,  and  assigned  him  to 
the  "Field  Work,  Literature  and  Publicity."  , 

His  work  has  been  successful,  and  he  has  discharged  his  duties  with 
efficiency  and  fidelity. 

The  Committee  also  commends  highly  the  work  of  Mrs.  Winsborough, 
Superintendent  of  the  Woman's  Auxiliary,  and  of  Miss  Lambdin,  who  for  five 
years  has  served  in  the  department  of  Home  Missions. 

In  addition  to  evangelistic  work,  the  Committee  secured  the  services  of 
Mr.  George  W.  Crabtree  as  Prison  Evangelist.  He  visits  prisons,  holds  services 
for  the  prisoners,  and  seeks  to  arouse  interest  in  the  churches  for  these  unfor- 
tunate people.  The  work  is  new  and  as  yet  somewhat  of  the  nature  of  an 
experiment. 

The  special  work  of  Rev.  J.  E.  Thacker,  D.  D.,  has  been  under  the  super- 
vision of  this  Committee.  His  report  is  an  encouraging  one.  Four  hundred 
and  twelve  (412)  have  united  with  the  Church  by  letter,  and  one  thousand 
three  hundred  and  seven  (1,307)  by  profession  of  faith  in  Christ.  Also  five 
young  men  have  decided  to  enter  the  ministry. 

The  Committee  also  secured  the  evangelistic  services  of  Rev.  W.  W.  Orr, 
D.  D.,  of  the  A.  R.  P.  Church,  for  about  seven  weeks.  The  results  of  his 
meetings  were  some  six  hundred  professions  of  faith. 

In  the  Mountain  Work,  begun  by  Dr.  Guerrant,  but  now  under  the  control 
of  this  Committee,  they  have  maintained  during  the  year,  in  whole  or  in  part, 
the  following :  Forty-two  mountain  schools,  129  teachers,  reaching  3,250  scholars. 
Rev.  W.  E.  Hudson  is  now  the  Superintendent,  and  an  efficient  one.  The  work  is 
encouraging,  but  the  need  is  great  and  the  opportunities  unlimited. 

Arkansas,  Texas  and  Oklahoma  contain  about  one-fourth  of  the  population 
of  the  South,  and  our  Church  has  only  about  forty  thousand  communicants  in 
this   large   territory.     Still,  the   churches   are   growing.      However,   the   oppor- 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  59 

tunities  are  so  many  and  so  great  that  we  are  grieved  that  lack  of  men  and 
money  prevent  our  taking  charge  of  this  great  territory. 

The  second  year  of  Colored  Evangelistic  Work  under  this  Committee  shows 
that  the  plan  is  working  well.  Rev.  J.  G.  Snedecor,  LL.  D.,  Superintendent  of 
the  Colored  Work,  has  charge  of  Stillman  Institute.  This  institution  has  now 
two  professors  and  thirty  candidates  for  the  ministry.  Its  equipment  is  "almost 
a  menace  to  health  as  well  as  unsuitable  for  the  best  work."  "The  Executive 
Committee  has  purchased  a  tract  of  250  acres  of  land  near  Tuscaloosa  at  a 
cost  of  $8,000.00,  paying  $2,500.00  cash  and  giving  notes  for  the  balance."  It 
is  their  purpose  to  sell  the  old  plant  as  soon  as  practicable. 

The  Rev.  John  Little  has  continued  his  magnificent  work  at  Louisville, 
Ky.,  assisted  by  the  Rev.  W.  H.  Sheppard,  D.  D.,  formerly  missionary  to  the 
Congo.  This  Louisville  work  is  a  model  as  to  what  can  be  done  and  should 
be  done  for  the  colored  people  all  over  the  South.  Similar  work  has  been 
undertaken  on  a  smaller  scale  in  Atlanta,  Ga.,  and  Richmond,  Va. 

Great  numbers  of  foreign-speaking  peoples  are  coming  into  the  South,  and 
the  Committee  is  trying  to  reach  them,  with  the  gospel.  The  Texas-Mexican 
work  is  the  most  prosperous  of  the  works  of  this  kind. 

"It  now  has  22  Mexican  churches,  1,200  communicants,  served  by  four 
American  missionaries  and  six  native  Mexican  pastors."  Italian  work  has  been 
begun  in  Kansas  City,  and  in  Louisiana  the  Presbj'tery  of  New  Orleans  is  a 
polyglot  Presbytery.  The  gospel  in  that  Presbytery  is  preached  Sabbath  by 
Sabbath  in  English,  German,  French,  Italian  and  Hungarian.  Also  there  is 
preaching  in  Spanish,  and  there  is  mission  work  among  the  Sj'^rians  and  the 
Chinese.  This  last,  however,  is  done  by  the  local  churches.  There  is  also  a 
successful  work  for  the  Italians  in  Birmingham,  Ala. ;  but  all  of  these  fields 
need  more  money  than  the  Committee  has  been  able  to  expend.  The  Committee 
has  also  a  mission  among  the  Cubans  at  Tampa ;  among  the  Hungarians  in 
Virginia ;  among  the  Russians  in  Texas,  and  among  the  Germans  in  Georgia. 

The  Southern  Church  has  been  working  among  the  Indians  for  fifty  years, 
confining  its  labors,  however,  to  the  Choctaw  and  Chickasaw  nations.  The 
Committee  has  been  unable  for  lack  of  funds,  in  spite  of  repeated  appeals,  to 
start  a  mission  for  the  Jews.  Good  work  for  education  among  the  Indians  has 
been  done  at  Goodland,  and  in  the  Oklahoma  Presbyterian  College.  The  Good- 
land  School  is  now  independent  officially  of  our  Church,  though  under  Pres- 
byterian influence.  Peculiar  circumstances  made  this  step  necessary.  Silas 
Bacon  and  his  wife  are  devoting  their  energies  and  their  money  to  this  school. 
It  has  developed  into  an  Indian  Orphanage  as  well  as  a  school.  It  is  worthy 
of  assistance  from  the  private  members  in  our  Church. 

By  far  the  most  important  institution  of  a  missionary  character  is  the 
Oklahoma  Presbyterian  College,  situated  at  Durant,  with  a  plant  worth 
$125,000.00.  It  is  handicapped  by  a  debt,  and  is  embarrassed  for  lack  of  a 
dormitory  and  equipment.  We  would  commend  it  to  our  people  of  wealth 
as  worthy  of  their  gifts. 

We  would  call  attention  to  the  results  from  the  observance  of  Home  Mission 
Week.  The  needs  of  the  Home  Mission  field  were  brought  to  the  attention  of 
our  people  as  never  before.  In  our  judgment.  Home  Mission  Week  should  be 
observed  again  this  year. 


6o  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

The  Executive  Committee  entered  heartily  into  the  Million  and  a  Half 
Campaign,  and  it  commends  especially  the  work  of  Dr.  J.  P.  McCallie,  the 
Secretary  in  charge  of  the  Campaign ;  likewise  it  extends  its  thanks  to  the  Lay- 
men's Missionary  Movement  and  its  Chairman,  Mr.  C.  A.  Rowland,  for  their 
help  in  making  the  Home  Mission  Convention  at  Memphis  a  success. 

Expenditures  distributed  by  departments  are  approximately  as  follows : 

For  Mountain  Work   $  36,956.49 

Foreigners    23,807.32 

Colored  Evangelization    18,254.61 

Weak  Presbyteries  in  the  older  Synods 9,705.95 

Evangelistic   4,439.50 

Indians 4,051.39 

Frontier 37,182.88 

Church   Erection    3.033-33 

Miscellaneous    14,358.14 

Total    $151,799.61 

The  overture  from  the  P.resbytery  of  Paris,  protesting  against  withdrawing 
money  from  the  Presbyteries  of  Texas,  seems  to  have  been  the  result  of  a  mis- 
understanding. The  Executive  Secretary  assures  us  that  the  Committee  has 
already  made  the  same  appropriation  for  the  coming  year  that  was  made  last 
year.    So  no  further  action  is  needed. 

Your  Committee  would  express  the  pleasure  with  which  the  Assembly  has 
heard  the  address  of  Judge  Cleland  on  Prison  Reform,  and  the  Assembly  is 
glad  to  inform  him  that  we  have  already  begun  work  in  the  prisons  through  the 
labors  of  Mr.  George  W.  Crabtree. 

From  the  above  imperfect  review  of  the  Annual  Report  of  the  Executive 
Committee  you  will  see  the  many  trying  and  vexing  problems  that  this  Com- 
mittee has  had  to  solve  during  the  year,  and  the  thanks  of  the  Assembly  are 
due  that  Committee  and  the  Secretaries  for  their  fidelity  and  efficiency  in  dis- 
charging the  duties  committed  to  them. 

In  answer  to  the  overture  from  the  Presbytery  of  Atlanta,  asking  that  "the 
Presbyteries  be  urged  to  appoint  Permanent  Committees  on  Evangelism,  and 
that  the  Stated  Clerks  of  the  Presbyteries  be  instructed  to  report  to  the  Execu- 
tive Secretary  of  the  Assembly's  Home  Missions  the  action  of  the  Presbyteries 
and  the  names  of  the  chairman  and  members  of  the  sub-committee,"  we  recom- 
mend that  the  Assembly  answer  this  overture  in  the  affirmative. 

In  answer  to  the  overture  from  the  Presbytery  of  Atlanta,  "to  enlarge  the 
description  of  those  monies  that  are  put  properly  in  the  column  of  the  Local 
Home  Missions  so  as  to  include  money  given  for  all  City  Mission  work,  and 
to  provide  a  separate  column  for  miscellaneous  beneficences,"  we  recommend 
that  the  Assembly  answer  this  overture  in  the  negative,  as  the  present  blanks 
seem  amply  sufficient  to  include  all  monies  given  for  beneficences. 

In  reply  to  the  overtures  from  the  Presbyteries  of  Louisville  and  Muhlen- 
burg,  asking  that  the  Presbyterial  Conferences  be  continued,  your  Committee 
recommends  that  the  Assembly  refer  these  overtures  to  the  Joint  Campaign 
Committee. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  6i 

In  reply  to  the  overture  from  the  North  Alabama  Presbytery,  asking  "that 
the  Assembly  grant  to  the  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions  the  entire 
control  of  work  among  foreigners,  and  charge  them  with  the  responsibility  of 
administration  up  to  the  point  of  complete  organization  of  a  church  of  immi- 
grants not  speaking  the  English  language,"  your  Committee  recommends  that 
the  Assembly  answer  this  overture  in  the  negative,  since  the  Constitution  gives 
to  the  Presbyteries  alone  power  to  organize  and  control  churches  within  their 
bounds. 

Your  Committee  recommends : 

ist.  That  in  accordance  with  the  recommendation  of  the  Permanent  Com- 
mittee on  Systematic  Beneficence  that  "the  Church  be  asked  to  raise  two  hundred 
and  eighty-seven  thousand,  two  hundred  and  eighty  ($287,280.00)  dollars  during 
the  next  j^ear  for  the  work  of  this  Committee,  as  outlined  in  its  annual  report, 
being  twenty-seven  per  cent.  (27%)." 

2nd.  That  to  prevent  confusion  as  to  the  Assembly's  percentage  ratio, 
"the  Synods  and  Presbyteries  shall  add  the  amounts  needed  for  their  local 
work  to  the  Assembly's  apportionments  and  make  apportionments  to  the 
churches  within  their  bounds  on  such  basis." 

3rd.  That  the  Assembly  authorize  the  Executive  Committee  to  make  the 
same  arrangements  as  heretofore  for  the  coming  year  as  to  Evangelistic  work 
with  Rev.  J.  E.  Thacker,  D.  D.  Also  that  the  Committee  be  empowered  to 
secure  two  other  Evangelists  to  labor  among  our  Home  Mission  churches,  if 
the  way  be  clear. 

4th.  We  recommend  that  the  title  of  Stillman  Institute  be  continued  in 
the  Trustees  at  Tuscaloosa,  and  that  the  part  of  this  property  that  has  hitherto 
been  held  by  the  Executive  Committee  of  Colored  Evangelization  be  now  con- 
veyed to  the  Trustees  mentioned  above,  to  hold  for  the  Executive  Committee 
of  Home  Missions. 

And  also  that  the  action  of  the  Home  I\Iission  Committee  directing  the 
sale  of  the  property  now  occupied  by  the  Institute  for  the  sum  of  forty  thousand 
($40,000.00)  dollars  be  approved,  and  that  the  purchase  of  a  larger  and  more 
suitable  site  lately  made  by  the  Home  INIissions  Committee  be  approved,  and 
that  the  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions  direct  the  expenditure  of  the 
sum  received  for  the  old  site  in  the  erection  of  new  and  suitable  equipment  for 
Stillman  Institute. 

5th.  That  R.  O.  Flinn,  S.  M.  Inman,  D.  H.  Ogden,  W.  R.  Hoyt,  and  Hugh 
K.  Walker,  whose  terms  expire  at  this  time,  be  re-elected  for  three  years  as 
members  of  the  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions. 

6th.  That  the  Assembly  hear  three  home  missionaries  for  ten  minutes 
each  at  this  time. 

The  telegram  from  Mr.  O.  H.  Ward,  touching  the  development  of  the 
Brownsville  Home  Mission  field,  3^our  Committee  recommends  that  it  be  turned 
over  to  the  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

W.  McF.  Alexander,  Chairman. 


62  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Christian  Education  and  Ministerial 
Relief  made  a  report,  which  was  considered  seriatim,  amended  and 
adopted,  and  is  as  follows : 

CHRISTIAN  EDUCATION  AND  MINISTERIAL  RELIEF. 

There  were  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  Standing  Committee  on  Christian 
Education  and  Ministerial  Relief  the  following  papers :  The  Minutes  of  the 
Executive  Committee,  the  Annual  Report  of  the  Committee,  Overtures  Nos.  57, 
58  and  93,  a  proposal  touching  the  future  conduct  of  the  "Relief  Fund,"  a 
memorial  from  the  Rev.  C.  W.  Humphreys,  of  Florida  Presbytery,  a  communi- 
cation from  the  Presbyterian  Ministers'  Association  of  Atlanta,  and  a  report 
of  the  Mountain  Retreat  Association. 

Your  Committee  would  call  the  attention  of  the  Assembly  to  the  following 
items  of  interest : 

(i)  God  has  graciously  answered  the  prayer  of  the  Church  for  more  labor- 
ers in  His  vineyard.  During  the  year  502  candidates  have  been  under  the  care 
of  the  Presbyteries.  Of  these  411  looked  to  the  Committee  for  aid.  There  is 
need  for  250  ordained  ministers  to  occupy  the  home  field,  in  places  where 
support  is  available,  and  a  larger  number  for  the  regions  beyond. 

(2)  An  examination  of  the  reports  of  the  Executive  Committee  shows 
painstaking  fidelity  in  the  effort  to  carry  out  the  recommendations  of  the 
Ad  Interim  Committee  adopted  by  the  last  Assembly,  touching  the  conduct  of 
the  Home  and  School  at  Fredericksburg,  Va.  Your  Committee  believes  that  the 
experience  of  one  year  has  demonstrated  the  wisdom  of  the  Assembly's  action. 

(3)  The  amounts  requested  by  the  Presbyteries  for  the  aged  and  enfeebled 
ministers  and  the  needy  widows  and  orphan  children  of  deceased  ministers  and 
missionaries  were  appropriated  and  paid.  The  assistance  rendered,  however, 
was  in  many  instances  wholly  inadequate  to  meet  the  needs  it  was  designed  to 
relieve.  Your  Committee  would  suggest  that  the  Assembly  earnestly  request 
our  ministers  to  lay  this  great  and  worthy  cause  upon  the  hearts  of  their  con- 
gregations, and  urge  them  to  greater  liberality  in  this  matter. 

(4)  Your  Committee  feels  that  the  action  of  the  Assembly,  requesting 
$500,000.00  for  the  Endowment  Fund  of  Ministerial  Relief,  should  be  continu- 
ously kept  before  the  mind  of  the  Church,  in  view  of  the  great  need  of  such  a 
fund  and  in  view  of  the  further  facts  that  no  time  is  now  set  for  an  offering  to 
this  fund  and  it  is  not  included  in  the  percentage  for  the  Assembly  causes 
which  has  been  requested  for  Ministerial  Relief. 

(5)  There  has  been  placed  in  our  hands  a  proposed  resolution  touching 
the  future  conduct  of  the  "Relief  Fund"  created  in  1870  and  turned  over  to  the 
Presbyterian  Ministers'  Fund  of  Philadelphia  in  1890.  The  proposed  resolution 
has  the  endorsement  of  the  Executive  Committee  of  Christian  Education  and 
Ministerial  Relief,  and  the  Presbyterian  Ministers'  Fund,  as  well  as  the  legal 
endorsement  of  the  attorney  consulted  by  the  Executive  Committee.  A  recom- 
mendation touching  this  matter  will  be  submitted  for  your  adoption. 

(6)  The  report  of  the  Mountain  Retreat  Association  shows  that  the  Asso- 
ciation is  in  a  flourishing  condition,  and  that  the  work  conducted  at  Montreat, 
N.  C,  through  the  Assembly's  Executive  Committees  and  other  agencies  is 
resulting  in  much  good  to  the  several  causes  of  the  Church. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  63 

We  present  the  following  recommendations : 

(i)  We  recommend  the  approval  of  the  Minutes  of  the  Executive  Com- 
mittee, and  heartily  commend  the  Committee  for  its  faithful  management  of 
all  the  causes  entrusted  to  its  care. 

(2)  We  recommend  that  Rev.  W.  Y.  Davis,  John  Stites,  Rev.  J.  M.  Vander 
Meulen,  B.  H.  Young,  and  C.  F.  Huhlein,  whose  terms  expire  at  this  meeting 
of  the  Assembly,  be  re-elected  for  a  term  of  three  years. 

(3)  We  recommend  that  the  proposed  resolution  touching  the  future 
conduct  of  the  "Relief  Fund"  be  ratified. 

(4)  In  reply  to  Overture  No.  57,  from  Presbytery  of  Piedmont,  asking 
that  "the  General  Assembly  fix  a  definite  age  limit  at  which  time  ministers  in 
good  standing  shall  be  entitled  to  a  specified  sum  without  the  embarrassment 
of  filling  out  the  forms  as  to  means  of  support,  relatives  capable  of  extending 
aid,  etc.,"  we  recommend  that  the  overture  be  answered  in  the  negative,  and 
we  refer  the  Presbytery  to  the  rules  of  the  General  Assembly  governing 
Honorably  Retired  Ministers.  (See  page  loi.  Annual  Report  of  Executive 
Committee.) 

(5)  In  reply  to  Overture  No.  58,  from  Presbytery  of  Ouachita,  asking 
the  Assembly  to  request  the  Executive  Committee  of  Christian  Education  and 
Ministerial  Relief  to  place  children  of  deceased  ministers  in  the  home  land  who 
are  without  financial  resources  on  the  same  plane  of  educational  advantage  as 
the  children  of  living  foreign  missionaries,  who  receive  for  each  child  $200.00 
per  annum,  we  recommend  that  the  overture  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

(6)  In  answer  to  Overture  No.  93,  from  Secretary  T.  P.  Junkin  and 
others  (representing  the  Conference  on  Education  meeting  in  Atlanta,  we  recom- 
mend that  an  Ad  Interim  Committee,  composed  of  the  Executive  Secretary  of 
Christian  Education  and  Ministerial  Relief  as  Chairman,  and  one  member  from 
each  of  the  Synods,  be  appointed  to  consider  all  matters  relating  to  the  dis- 
covery, definition,  co-ordination  and  allied  questions  of  the  schools  and  colleges 
connected  with  our  Church.  That  this  Committee  call  the  Christian  educators 
of  these  schools  and  colleges  into  conference  with  themselves  at  Montreat,  N.  C, 
during  July  or  August  of  this  year,  to  discuss  matters  coming  under  the  purview 
of  this  Committee,  and  that  this  Coqimittee  report  its  findings,  with  or  without 
recommendations,  to  the  General  Assembly  of  1914. 

(7)  We  recommend  that  the  Executive  Committee  be  authorized  to  in- 
clude among  its  beneficiaries  accepted  candidates  for  our  Foreign  Mission  work, 
looking  forward  to  any  branch  of  that  work,  as  well  as  those  looking  forward 
to  medical  missionary  work,  as  at  present,  provided  such  candidates  are  recom- 
mended and  endorsed  by  the  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions. 

(8)  In  answer  to  the  Presbyterian  Ministers'  Association  of  Atlanta,  we 
recommend  that  the  Rev.  Thornwell  Jacobs  be  invited  to  address  the  Assembly 
for  ten  minutes  on  the  refounding  of  Oglethorpe  University. 

(9)  We  recommend  that  the  Executive  Committee  be  directed  to  grant  aid 
to  prospective  medical  missionaries  who  have  matriculated,  or  who  are  qualified 
to  matriculate,  in  a  duly  accredited  medical  college,  no  more  than  four  years 
of  aid  being  granted  to  any  one  student. 

(10)  We  recommend  that  the  last  Sabbath  in  February  and  the  preceding 


64  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

Wednesday  be  re-appointed  as  a  time  of  special  prayer  for  youth  in  schools 
and  colleges. 

(ii)  We  Tecommend  that  the  Synods  be  urged  to  continued  diligence  in 
providing  pastoral  oversight  of  students  in  the  State  institutions  of  the  South. 

(12)  We  recommend  that  the  Assembly  urge  all  the  Synods  and  Presby- 
teries to  give  earnest  attention  to  the  work  of  Christian  Education,  using  every 
endeavor  to  arouse  our  people  to  a  deeper  appreciation  and  a  more  liberal 
support  of  our  educational  institutions.  We  further  recommend  that  the  next 
Assembly  be  characterized  as  an  Educational  Assembly,  and  that  the  first  Friday 
and  Saturday  evenings  be  given  over  to  popular  meetings  in  behalf  of  our 
schools,  colleges  and  seminaries. 

(13)  In  reply  to  a  memorial  from  the  Rev.  C.  W.  Humphreys,  of  the 
f  resbytery  of  Florida,  requesting  that  the  Executive  Secretary  of  Christian 
Education  and  Ministerial  Relief  be  required  to  send  to  him  certain  records  on 
file  in  the  Secretary's  office,  we  answer  that  this  is  a  matter  which  ought  to  be 
adjudicated  by  the  Presbytery,  and  we  recommend  that  the  memorialist  be 
referred  to  the  Presbytery  to  which  he  belongs. 

(14)  We  recommend  that  the  Assembly  hear  from  the  Rev.  R.  C.  Ander- 
son, President  of  the  Mountain  Retreat  Association,  for  ten  minutes  relative 
to  the  work  of  the  Association. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

E.  C.  Caldwell,  Chairman. 

The  resolution  referred  to  above  (5)  was  adopted  by  the  Assembly 
and  is  as  follows : 

Whereas,  The  General  A.ssembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  in  1870  established  a  fund  for  the  benefit  of  the  ministers  of  the  gospel 
engaged  in  the  work  of  the  Church,  which  fund  was  known  as  the  "Relief 
Fund" : 

And  zvhereas,  The  said  General  Assembly  subsequently,  on  or  about  the 
29th  day  of  July,  A.  D.  1890,  entered  into  a  contract  with  the  Presbyterian  Min- 
isters' Fund  of  Philadelphia,  Pennsylvania,  a  corporation  under  the  laws  of 
Pennsylvania,  whereby  the  trust  fund  belonging  to  the  said  Relief  Fund  and 
its  entire  management  was  transferred  and  committed  to  the  said  Presbyterian 
Ministers'  Fund  as  Trustee,  upon  the  terms  and  conditions  in  said  agreement 
more  fully  set  forth : 

And  whereas,  Sundry  of  the  policy-holders  of  the  said  Relief  Fund  for 
whom  the  said  Presbyterian  Ministers'  Fund  is  now  Trustee  are,  by  reason  of 
advanced  age  and  their  necessitous  circumstances,  desirous  of  obtaining  the 
benefit  of  the  payments  made  by  them  to  said  fund  in  the  form  of  a  cash 
surrender  value  or  other  commutation  of  their  respective  policies  or  certificates: 

And  zvhereas,  In  and  by  the  plan  of  said  Relief  Fund,  and  by  the  contract 
so  subsequently  entered  into  with  the  said  Presbyterian  Ministers'  Fund,  no  right 
was  reserved  to  the  policy-holders  of  said  plan  and  fund  to  obtain  a  cash  sur- 
render value  upon  the  certificates  issued  to  said  policy-holders,  but  said  plan  and 
agreement  contemplated  the  payment  to  the  families  of  the  said  policy-holders 
of  certain  sums  therein  set  forth,  as  a  consequence  of  which  said  policy-holders 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  65 

are  not  entitled  to  presently  surrender  their  said  policies  and  to  have  the  cash 
value  or  commutation  thereof : 

Atid  whereas,  The  said  Presbyterian  Ministers'  Fund,  although  desirous  of 
accommodating  the  policy-holders  of  the  said  Relief  Fund  in  any  and  all  ways 
possible,  is  advised  by  counsel  that  it  cannot  lawfully,  in  accordance  with  its 
contract  with  the  said  General  Assembly,  pay  to  said  policy-holders  or  to  any 
of  them  the  cash  surrender  value  of  their  certificates,  without  the  consent  of 
the  said  General  Assembly  being  first  had  and  secured : 

And  whereas,  It  appears  to  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  the  United  States,  now  in  session  at  Atlanta,  Georgia,  that  it  will  be 
to  the  advantage  of  sundry  of  the  policy-holders  of  said  fund  that  they  should 
have  the  right  to  presently  surrender  their  said  certificates  so  issued  by  or  for 
the  account  of  the  said  Relief  Fund,  and  to  receive  the  commutation  or  cash 
surrender  value  thereof,  as  the  same  shall  be  determined : 

Noiv,  be  it  resolved.  That  the  President  and  Secretary  of  the  Board  of 
Trustees  of  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  be,  and  they  are  hereby,  authorized  in  the  name  and  on  behalf  of  the  Board 
of  Trustees  of  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  to  enter  into  a  contract  with  the  Presbyterian  Ministers'  Fund  of  Phila- 
delphia, Pennsylvania,  in  the  form  hereto  attached,  which  form  is  hereby 
approved,  modifying  said  agreement  of  July  29th,  1890,  in  such  a  way  that  the 
policy-holders  thereof  shall  be  entitled  to  have  and  to  receive  the  cash  sur- 
render value  of  their  said  certificates  or  policies  as  the  same  shall  be  hereafter 
determined. 

In  accordance  with  two  recommendations  of  this  report,  it  was 
made  the  order  of  the  day  for  11  a.  m.  tomorrow  to  hear  Rev.  R.  C. 
Anderson  and  Rev.  Thornwell  Jacobs,  ten  minutes  being  allowed  to 
each  speaker. 

The  Assembly  then  adjotirned  until  9  a.  m.  tomorrow,  in  order  to 
engage  in  the  joint  meeting  previously  arranged  for  tonight  at  the 
Auditorium,  closing  with  prayer.

66  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

the  white  slave  traffic,  was  presented  and  referred  to  the  Committee

The  report  of  the  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures  was  taken  from 
the  docket,  and  Rev.  E.  T.  Wellford,  D.  D.,  was  heard  in  connection 
with  the  answer  of  the  Committee  to  Overture  Number  31,  touching 
the  debt  on  the  Jamestown  Exhibit. 

The  following  resolutions  concerning  this  debt  were  adopted  : 
JAMESTOWN  DEBT. 

We,  therefore,  present  the  following  requests : 

1.  That  the  Assembly  include  in  its  next  contingent  assessment  one  cent 
per  communicant  upon  the  Presbyteries  which  have  not  already  participated  in 
the  discharge  of  this  debt,  or  have  not  paid  their  full  apportionment. 

2.  That  the  Treasurer  of  the  Assembly  be  instructed  to  pay  said  assess- 
ment to  the  Treasurer  of  the  Presbytery  of  Norfolk. 

The  further  consideration  of  the  report  of  the  Committee  on  Bills 
and  Overtures  was  suspended. 

A  communication  concerning  the  persecution  of  Jews  and  Armenians 
was  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures. 

It  was  made  the  order  of  the  day  for  2  :30  p.  m.  to  hear  Rev.  Philip

It  was  made  the  order  of  the  day  for  12  o'clock  today  to  hear  the

v/as  adopted.  The  report  was  then  adopted  as  a  whole  and  is  as 
follows : 

FOREIGN  CORRESPONDENCE. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Foreign  Correspondence  would  respectfully 
report  that  there  has  been  put  into  their  hands : 

I.  A  communication  from  the  Rev.  Dr.  R.  H.  Fleming,  asking  that  this 
Assembly  appoint  a  committee  to  meet  similar  committees,  if  appointed  by  the 
other  Assemblies  now  in  session  in  the  city,  in  order  that  these  committees  may 
prepare  a  joint  declaration  on  the  relation  of  the  Christian  Faith  and  Social 
Service,  to  be  adopted  by  their  respective  Assemblies.  In  response  thereto 
your  Committee  recommend  that  this  Assembly  appoint  an  Ad  Interim  Com- 
mittee of  five  to  meet  similar  committees,  if  appointed  by  the  other  Presbyterian 
Assemblies,  and  that  this  committee  be  charged  with  the  duty  of  preparing  in 
conjunction  with  these  other  committees,  if  they  be  appointed,  or  alone  if  these 
said  committees  be  not  appointed,  a  full  statement  upon  this  whole  subject  of 
the  relation  of  the  Christiain  Faith  and  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  to  Social 
Reform  and  Social  Service,  and  report  the  same  to  the  General  Assembly 
of  1914. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  (^ 

We  further  recommend  the  following  as  members  of  this  Committee : 
Chairman,  J.  S.  Lyons;  James  R.  Howerton,  A.  M.  Scales,  R.  E.  Vinson, 
Thornton  Whaling. 

2.  An  overture  from  the  Presbytery  of  Nashville,  asking  that  the  Assembly 
do  not  withdraw  from  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ  in 
America. 

In  view  of  the  foregoing  action,  designed  to  secure  a  statement  of  the 
doctrinal  position  of  the  Presbyterian  Churches  upon  the  relation  of  the  Church 
to  Social  Service  (in  part  for  its  effect  on  the  said  Council),  your  Committee 
would  recommend  that  this  overture  be  answered  in  the  affirmative,  and  further 
recommend  that  this  Assembly  now  declare  that  by  this  action  it  does  not  as  a 
Church  court  approve  of  the  Social  Service  program  presented  by  the  Federal 
Council,  and  that  it  disapproves  of  the  failure  of  the  Federal  Council  to  make 
it  plain  that  its  Social  Service  program  was  not  intended  to  be  adopted  by  the 
Churches  as  organized  bodies. 

3.  Also  overtures  from  the  Presbyteries  of  Roanoke,  Central  Texas,  East 
Alabama,  Atlanta,  West  Hanover,  Muhlenburg,  and  the  Session  of  the  First 
Presbyterian  Church  of  Galveston,  Texas,  asking  that  this  Assembly  withdraw 
from  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ  in  America. 

Your  Committee  recommends  that  these  overtures  be  answered  in  the 
negative. 

4.  A  report  from  Rev.  Drs.  T.  S.  Clyce,  David  M.  Sweets,  W.  S.  Jacobs, 
Henry  H.  Sweets,  and  Elder  E.  W.  King,  appointed  by  the  Moderator  as  dele- 
gates to  the  second  meeting  of  the  Federal  Council,  asking  that  the  Assembly 
appoint  members  on  the  Commissions  of  the  Council  and  that  provision  be  made 
to  pay  our  quota  of  the  expenses  of  the  Council. 

In  response  thereto  we  recommend : 

(a)  That  this  Assembly  authorize  the  Moderator  to  appoint  such  members 
on  the  Council  Commissions ;  and 

(b)  That  the  Treasurer  of  the  Assembly  be  authorized  to  pay  our  quota 
of  the  Council's  expenses  from  this  date. 

5.  A  communication  from  the  Christian  Reformed  Church  of  North 
America,  asking  that  we  join  them  in  petitioning  our  Federal  Congress  to  ap- 
point an  annual  day  of  prayer  for  our  country. 

We  recommend  that  this  Assembly,  while  recognizing  the  duty  of  prayer, 
both  public  and  private,  for  our  nation  and  its  officers  and  people,  declines 
to  join  in  such  petition. 

6.  The  report  of  the  Western  Section  of  the  Executive  Commission  of  the 
Alliance  of  Reformed  Churches  Holding  the  Presbyterian  System.  While 
there  is  much  of  interest  in  this  report,  there  is  nothing  demanding  attention 
except  that  we  recommend  that  Drs.  T.  S.  Clyce  and  S.  A.  King  be  continued 
as  a  Committee  authorized  to  fill  vacancies  in  our  delegation  {22,')  to  the 
Council,  and  that  we  hear  Rev.  Dr.  R.  H.  Fleming,  Fraternal  Delegate,  imme- 
diately after  the  adoption  of  this  report. 

7.  Touching  the  memorial  presented  to  the  Assembly  from  the  Association 
of  Chaplains  of  the  U.  S.  Army  and  Navy,  asking  us  to  memorialize  Congress 
to  take  steps  to  reach  the  great  religious  destitution  of  our  soldiers  in  the 
Army  and   Navy,  we  declare  that  the   facts  presented  show  a   religious   and 


68  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

spiritual  condition  which  needs  remedying.  We  recommend  that  the  Assembly 
express  its  sympathy  with  the  ends  suggested  and  refer  the  papers  to  our  Home 
Mission  Committee  for  investigation  and  report  to  the  next  Assembly,  and  also 
authorize  the  Home  Mission  Committee  to  take  such  action  in  the  interim 
as  they  may  deem  wise. 

Thornton  Whaling,  Chairman. 

Rev.  R.  H.  Fleming,  D.  D.,  the  representative  of  the  Western

tion, was  heard  in  behalf  of  Montreat. 

The  report  of  the  Standing  Committee  on  Judicial  Business  was 
taken  from  the  docket,  amended  and  adopted,  and  is  as  follows : 

PARTIAL  REPORT  OF  THE  JUDICIAL  COMMITTEE. 

Your  Committee  respectfully  reports  that  a  memorial  from  Rev.  W.  I. 
Sinnott  to  this  venerable  body  was  placed  in  their  hands.  The  memorialist 
recites  that  the  Minutes  of  the  General  Assembly  of  igio  contain  statements 
erroneous  as  to  facts;  and  asks  this  General  Assembly  to  "adopt  a  paper  or 
pass  an  act  that  will  correct  these  errors  as  to  facts." 

Your  Committee  recommends  that  the  General  Assembly  decline  the  request 
of  the  memorialist,  on  the  ground  that  this  General  Assembly  is  not  in  a  posi- 
tion to  judge  of  the  facts  complained  of  by  the  Rev.  W.  I.  Sinnott. 

The  memorialist  further  recites  that  the  Synod  of  Alabama  has  for  three 
successive  annual  meetings  failed  to  review  the  minutes  of  the  Presbytery  of 
North  Alabama  for  the  Fall  Meeting  of  1909  and  the  Spring  Meeting  of  1910; 
and  asks  that  the  General  Assembly  "require  the  Synod  of  Alabama  to  comply 
with  the  Book  of  Church  Order  and  review  said  minutes." 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  69 

We  recommend  that  a  negative  answer  be  given,  because  the  minutes  of 
the  Synod  of  Alabama  for  1909  and  1910  have  been  reviewed  and  approved  by 
the  General  Assemblies  of  1910  and  191 1.  With  this  approval  the  rights  of 
appeal,  complaint  and  memorial  touching  the  review  of  the  same  are  estopped. 

The  following  telegram  of  greetings  was  adopted  and  ordered  sent 
to  President  Woodrow  Wilson : 

PRESIDENT  WOODROW  WILSON. 

The  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States,  in 
session  at  Atlanta,  Ga.,  sends  greetings  to  President  Woodrow  Wilson,  and 
would  record  its  appreciation  of  his  action  in  securing  a  better  observance  of 
the  Sabbath,  as  a  day  of  rest,  by  closing  the  White  House  to  pleasure  seekers 
and  discouraging  social  and  State  functions  on  the  Lord's  Day. 

Recess  was  then  taken  until  2  :30  p.  m. 


AFTERNOON  SESSION. 

2:30  p.  m. 
The  Assembly  met. 

Rev.  Philip  Sidersky,  of  Baltimore,  and  Rev.  A.  A.  Holzer,  of 
St.  Louis,  Mo.,  Jewish  ministers,  addressed  the  Assembly. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Publication  and  Sabbath  School  Work 
made  a  report.  The  report  of  the  Select  Committee  on  the  Printed 
Minutes  of  the  Assembly  was  taken  from  the  docket  and  made  a  part 
of  this  report.    The  report  was  adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

PUBLICATION  AND  SABBATH  SCHOOL  WORK. 

There  have  come  into  the  hands  of  your  Committee  the  fifty-second  annual 
report  of  the  Executive  Committee  of  Publication  and  Sabbath  School  Work 
for  the  year  ending  March  31st,  1913,  the  minutes  of  the  Executive  Committee, 
statistical  tables  covering  the  Sabbath  School  work  of  83  out  of  our  85  Presby- 
teries, and  four  overtures. 

With  the  exception  of  the  statistical  tables,  your  Committee  have  examined 
these  several  papers  with  such  care  as  our  time  permitted.  The  former  we 
turned  over  to  the  Executive  Secretary,  Mr.  R.  E.  Magill,  to  be  tabulated  and 
published  in  the  Assembly's  Minutes. 

We  have  found  the  minutes  of  the  Executive  Committee  carefully  and 
correctly  kept. 

The  reports  of  the  Executive  Secretary,  of  the  General  Superintendent  of  Sab- 
bath School  Work  and  Young  People's  Societies,  and  of  the  Editorial  Superin- 
tendent, respectively,  are  carefully  prepared  documents,  containing  much  valuable 
detailed  information  regarding  these  several  phases  of  this  important  branch  of 
the  Church's  work.  Your  Committee  hope  that  our  ministers  and  elders  will 
take  occasion  to  acquaint  themselves  with  the  contents  of  these  reports.  All  of 
them  give  evidence  of  the  intelligent  and  interested  activity  of  those  in  charge  of 
the  work,  of  the  blessing  with  which  God  has  followed  their  labors,  and  of  the 
acceptance  which  these  labors  have  met  at  the  hands  of  the  Church.  All 
report  gratifying  progress. 

The  increased  circulation  of  our  periodicals  witnesses  at  once  to  the 
efficiency  of  the  business  management  and  the  high  grade  of  the  editorial  work 


70  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

which  have  combined  to  bring  about  this  increase.  The  increase  in  the  number 
of  our  periodicals  evidences  the  insight  of  the  Editor-in-Chief  and  his  co-workers 
into  the  needs  of  a  constituency  embracing  very  different  elements,  and  their 
good  judgment  and  promptness  in  meeting  these  needs.  The  report  of  the 
General  Superintendent  of  Sabbath  School  Work  testifies  to  his  tireless  effort  to 
secure  for  those,  young  and  old,  to  minister  to  vi^hom  the  Sabbath  School 
exists,  all  that  is  best  and  only  what  is  wholesome  among  modern  methods. 

Your  Committee  takes  pleasure  in  bringing  to  the  attention  of  the  Assembly 
and  endorsing  the  following  recommendations  in  the  report  of  the  Executive 
Secretary,  to  wit : 

1.  That  the  Assembly  again  enjoin  every  church  and  school  in  the  Assembly 
to  take  an  offering  for  this  cause,  something  that  1,893  churches  and  1,600 
Sabbath  Schools  failed  to  do  last  year. 

2.  That  the  General  Assembly  specially  commend  to  our  people  our  series 
of  Uniform  Lesson  Helps  as  presented  in  our  graded  system  of  Quarterlies,  and 
earnestly  urge  the  more  perfect  grading  of  our  schools  by  the  intelligent  use 
of  our  entire  Quarterly  series. 

3.  That  the  churches  and  schools  of  the  Assembly  be  asked  to  raise  as  the 
minimum  for  the  Extension  Work  of  the  Publication  Committee  the  sum  of 
$37,500. 

In  this  connection,  fully  recognizing  the  difficulties  inherent  in  the  case,  your 
Committee  would  still  recommend 

4.  That  the  Committee  of  Publication  be  urged  to  exercise  constant  and 
jealous  care  over  the  character  of  the  literature  that  it  keeps  on  sale  and 
offers  to  our  people  in  its  advertisements. 

5.  That  from  year  to  year  the  Committee  of  Publication  present  to  the 
Libraries  of  each  of  our  Theological  Seminaries  a  complete  set  of  the  annual 
reports  of  our  several  Executive  Committees,  together  with  the  Minutes  of  the 
General  Assembly,  bound  in  one  substantial  volume. 

In  connection  with  our  Sabbath  School  work,  your  Committee  would 
recommend : 

1.  That  our  Presbyteries  give  constant  and  earnest  attention  to  utilizing 
the  Sabbath  School  as  a  missionary  agency,  and  to  perfecting  the  efficiency  of 
the  schools  already  established  within  their  bounds. 

2.  That  our  pastors  and  sessions  be  urged  to  study  and  put  to  a  thorough 
test  the  possibilities  of  the  organized  Adult  Bible  Class  and  of  the  Vacation 
Bible  School. 

3.  That  the  Executive  Committee  be  directed  to  investigate  and  report 
its  findings  with  recommendations  to  the  next  General  Assembly  on  the  subject 
of  Church  Attendance  by  the  children  and  young  people  of  our  congregations ; 
that  Sunday  School  officers  and  teachers  be  urged  to  emphasize  the  duty  and 
privilege  of  attendance  on  the  worship  of  the  sanctuary,  and  that  pastors  be 
exhorted  to  lay  this  matter  on  the  consciences  of  parents  and  to  keep  the  needs 
of  children  in  view  in  the  public  exercises  of  God's  house. 

4.  That  the  Assembly  approve  the  action  of  the  Executive  Committee  in 
co-operating  with  other  Presbyterian  and  Reformed  Sabbath  School  agencies  in 
the  United  States  and  Canada  in  the  effort  to  produce  a  series  of  Graded  Lessons 
that  will  be  true  in  all  their  parts  to  the  standards  of  our  Church  and  to  a  sound 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  70a 

philosophy  of  education,  and  adapted  to  the  needs  of  all  our  schools ;  and  that 
the  Assembly  record  its  appreciation  of  the  aggressive  action  of  our  Executive 
Committee  in  its  effort  to  protect  our  schools  from  false  doctrine. 

5.  That  the  efforts  of  the  Executive  Committee  to  adapt  the  treatment  of 
the  International  Uniform  Lessons  to  the  varying  needs  of  pupils  be  commended, 
and  that  it  be  encouraged  to  perfect  as  soon  as  possible  its  plans  for  the  further 
improvement  of  the  same. 

6.  That  the  sessions  be  encouraged  to  give  earnest  heed  to  the  fact  that 
the  salvation  of  the  soul  of  every  pupil  is  the  primary  aim  of  the  Sabbath 
School  and  should  engage  their  chief  attention,  and  that  the  purely  educational 
features  of  the  school  should  be  made  secondary  to  its  evangelistic  purpose; 
while  at  the  same  time  these  educational  features  are  made  as  perfect  as  possible. 

There  have  come  into  the  hands  of  your  Committee  four  overtures,  as  fol- 
lows, to  wit : 

Overture  70,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Palmyra,  Missouri,  asking  that  the 
depository  at  Texarkana  be  discontinued.  Your  Committee  recommends  that 
this  overture  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

Overture  "jB,  from  the  Presbytery  of  North  Alabama,  asking  that  a  com- 
mittee be  appointed  by  the  Assembly  to  revise  the  tunes  in  the  Assembly  Hymn 
Book.  Your  Committee  recommends  that  the  attention  of  this  Presbytery  be 
called  to  the  fact  that  provision  has  already  been  made  for  changes  of  tunes 
along  the  lines  suggested  by  this  overture.  See  Minutes  of  General  Assembly, 
1911. 

Overture  69,  from  the  Presbj'tery  of  North  Mississippi,  asking  that  the 
Committee  of  Publication  and  Sabbath  School  Work  be  instructed  not  to 
publish  Christmas  and  Easter  Lessons,  but  in  their  place  the  regular  Inter- 
national Lessons.  Your  Committee  recommends  that  the  attention  of  the 
Editor-in-Chief  of  our  Sabbath  School  publications  be  called  to  the  action  of 
the  Assemblies  of  1899  and  1903,  which  already  give  the  instruction  requested 
by  the  overture. 

Overture  71,  from  West  Lexington  Presb3'tery,  Kentucky,  requesting  that 
the  name  of  the  Assembly's  Committee  be  changed  from  "the  Committee  of 
Publication  and  Sabbath  School  Work"  to  "the  Committee  of  Sabbath  School 
Work  and  Publication."  Your  Committee  recommends  that  for  legal  and  other 
reasons  this  overture  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

We  call  the  attention  of  the  Assembly  to  the  fact  that  the  term  of  the 
following  named  members  of  the  Executive  Committee  has  expired,  to  wit : 
Rev.  Drs.  G.  B.  Strickler,  T.  H.  Rice,  and  A.  L.  Phillips,  and  Messrs.  John  S. 
Munce  and  J.  W.  Sinton.  We  recommend  that  the  same  persons  be  re-elected 
for  a  term  of  three  years,  and  that  Mr.  R.  E.  Magill  be  elected  Executive  Sec- 
retary for  three  years. 

On  behalf  of  the  Committee, 

W.  M.  McPheeters,  Chairman. 


REPORT  OF  SELECT  COMMITTEE  ON  THE  PRINTED  MINUTES  OF 

THE  ASSEMBLY, 
(i)     Your  Committee  to  consider  overtures  relating  to  the  printed  Minutes 
of  the  Assembly  report  that  they  have  considered  an  overture  from  the  Synod 


7ob  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

of   Missouri,  asking  for  a  more  particular  index  of  matters  contained   in  the 
body  of  the  Minutes. 

We  recommend  that  the  Assembly  answer  in  the  negative,  deeming  the 
present  index  sufficient. 

(2)  From  the  same  Synod,  an  overture  asking  for  an  additional  column 
in  the  Statistical  Reports  for  Women's  Societies. 

We  recommend  a  negative  answer. 

(3)  An  overture  from  the  Presbytery  of  Orange,  asking  that  all  matters 
requiring  the  attention  of  the  lower  courts  be  grouped  in  one  place  in  the 
Minutes  of  the  Assembly. 

These  matters  are  already  designated  under  one  caption  in  the  Index. 

(4)  We  have  considered  overtures  from  the  Presbyteries  of  Lexington, 
Orange,  New  Orleans,  North  Alabama,  East  Mississippi,  Central  Texas,  Roan- 
oke, and  from  the  Synod  of  Missouri,  asking  for  certain  changes  in  the  Index. 
We  have  also  had  a  communication  from  the  Stated  Clerk  of  the  Assembly 
touching  this  matter. 

We  recommend  the  following  action : 

First.  That  the  Clerk  be  instructed  to  abandon  the  alphabetical  list  of 
churches  ordered  by  previous  Assembly  as  impracticable  and  of  little  use. 

Second.  That  Presbyterial  Stated  Clerks  be  instructed,  in  making  out  their 
statistical  reports,  to  arrange  the  list  of  ministers  alphabetically. 

Third.  That  the  Clerk  be  instructed  to  preserve  the  present  arrangement 
of  the  Index  of  Names  of  Ministers  and  Licentiates,  adding  to  such  names  the 
pages  of  the  Minutes  on  which  their  Presbytery  is  to  be  found. 

Fourth.  That  the  names  of  the  Presbyteries  be  indicated  at  the  top  of  the 
pages  of  the  Minutes  in  black  type. 

Fifth.  To  insure  both  speed  and  accuracy,  the  Stated  Clerk  be  allowed 
two  hundred  ($200.00)  dollars  for  clerical  help  in  the  preparation  of  the  Minutes. 

That  while  accuracy  should  not  be  sacrificed  to  speed,  there  is  no  reason 
why  both  should  not  be  had. 

T.  M.  Hunter,  Chairman. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  the  Narrative  made  a  report,  which 
was  adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

NARRATIVE. 

Your  Committee  on  Narrative  respectfully  presents  the  following  report : 

Many  reports  have  come  into  our  hands  and  have  been  carefully  considered. 
There  is  an  impressive  alternation  of  light  and  shade  running  through  almost 
the  entire  list,  with  here  and  there  a  brighter  gleam  of  light,  and  here  and  there 
a  little  darker  shade. 

By  far  the  larger  number  of  churches  report  encouragingly  concerning 
attendance  upon  the  services  of  the  Sanctuary.  Wherever  complaint  is  made 
it  is  in  almost  every  instance  with  reference  to  evening  services. 

The  observance  of  the  Lord's  Day ;  the  training  in  the  Sabbath  Schools ; 
the  fidelity  of  God's  people  in  worshiping  the  Lord  with  their  substance  are 
dealt  with  in  a  hopeful  tone,  though  many  report  neglect  of  the  Catechism  in 
the  Sabbath  schools.  Pastors'  salaries  are  generally  fully  and  promptly  paid. 
Worldly  conformity  seems  to  be  on  the  decline  amongst  the  members  of  the 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  70c 

Church;    and,   best   of   all,   reports   from   many   Presbyteries   testify   to   much 
special  manifestation  of  the  Spirit's  presence  and  power. 

On  the  other  hand,  reports  concerning  the  observance  of  family  worship 
and  home  training  are  such  as  ought  to  give  us  deep  concern. 

An  analysis  of  the  reports  seems  to  indicate,  first,  that  attendance  upon  the 
services  of  the  Sanctuary  may  be  very  gratifying  and  in  the  same  places  there 
may  be  a  sad  absence  of  any  manifestations  of  the  power  of  the  Spirit;  and, 
secondly,  that  a  generous  surrender  of  money  can  co-exist  with  a  great  neglect 
of  the  family  altar.  These  deductions  indicate  that  we  should  not  be  too  quick 
to  congratulate  ourselves  upon  a  satisfactory  religious  condition  upon  the  basis 
of  good  congregations  and  large  collections,  two  points  which  are  very  liable  to 
lull  us  with  a  false  hope.  But  rather  we  should  earnestly  inquire  whether  it 
may  not  be  possible  that  we  are  seeking  through  special  attention  to  such  duties  as 
are  of  an  open  and  easy  sort  to  atone  for  the  neglect  of  others  of  a  more  private 
and  basic  character. 

The  remarkable  features  of  the  reports  are  the  indications  they  give  of 
most  encouraging  progress  in  the  spirit  of  Evangelism  and  the  grace  of  giving. 
Probably  never  before  in  the  history  of  our  Church  did  these  two  important 
lines  of  Christian  duty  stand  out  with  such  commanding  prominence. 

This  is  due  no  doubt  in  large  measure  to  the  vigorous  and  comprehensive 
campaign  of  the  last  year,  and  to  the  challenge  which  the  great  Foreign  Mission 
debt  made  to  the  spirit  of  prayer  and  liberality  of  the  Lord's  people.  If  this  be 
so,  there  may  be  a  danger  of  falling  off,  now  that  the  challenge  has  been  so 
victoriously  met. 

There  is  great  danger  that  a  more  or  less  natural  feeling  of  exhaustion, 
following  the  unwonted  effort  of  the  past  year,  may  lead  to  an  apathetic  dullness 
to  the  call  to  advance  corresponding  to  the  splendid  response  that  was  given 
to  the  appeal  to  meet  the  great  emergency. 

Being  forewarned,  let  us  truly  be  forearmed,  and  call  upon  the  Divine 
Spirit  for  wisdom  to  avoid  any  movement  savoring  of  retrogression. 

We  have  no  special  recommendations  to  make,  except  as  the  points  of  weak- 
ness we  have  indicated  carry  their  recommendations  with  them. 

Robert  Hill,  Chairman. 

A  commtinication  was  received  from  the  Presbyterian  Church,  U. 
S.  A.,  touching  relations  with  other  ecclesiastical  bodies,  which  was 
referred  to  the  Select  Committee  on  Relations  with  Other  Ecclesi- 
astical Bodies. 

The  Executive  Secretaries  made  the  following  report,  touching 
Woman's  Work: 

REPORT  OF  THE  SUPERVISORY  COMMITTEE  OF  THE  WOMAN'S 

AUXILIARY. 
The  Assembly  of  1912,  in  answer  to  a  large  number  of  overtures  asking 
for  the  organization  of  a  central  department  of  Woman's  Work  under  Assembly 
control,  directed  the  "four  Executive  Committees  to  select  a  woman  possessing 
suitable  gifts,  who,  under  their  direction,  shall  give  her  whole  time  to  the  work 
of  organizing  our  women  into  Synodical  and  Presbyterial  Unions  and  local 
societies,  under  control  of   Synods,  Presbyteries  and  sessions,  respectively,  co- 


7od  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

ordinating  Women's  and  Young  People's  Societies  as  now  organized;  stimu- 
lating interest  by  gathering  and  disseminating  needed  information  in  order 
that  this  mighty  auxiliary  of  our  Church's  life  and  growth  may  become  even 
more  fruitful  of  good  than  in  the  past."     (Minutes,  1912,  page  23.) 

In  compliance  with  this  mandate,  the  Executive  Secretaries  of  the  four 
Executive  Committees  were  appointed  by  their  respective  Committees  to  act  as  a 
Supervisory  Committee  and  organize  the  Woman's  Auxiliary  and  select  a 
Superintendent. 

The  Supervisory  Committee  met  at  Montreal,  N.  C,  in  August,  1912,  and 
after  conference  with  the  Presidents  of  Synodical  Unions  and  other  leading 
workers  among  the  women  of  the  Church,  a  department  of  Woman's  Work  was 
established  and  designated  as  the  Woman's  Auxiliary.  Mrs.  W.  C.  Winsborough 
was  elected  Superintendent,  and  headquarters  were  located  at  Kansas  City,  Mo. 
An  advisory  body,  known  as  the  Woman's  Council,  was  created,  which  is 
composed  of  the  Presidents  of  the  Synodicals. 

A  few  principles  for  the  guidance  of  the  Auxiliary  and  its  officers  were 
formulated,  and  the  organization  began  its  work  with  the  cordial  sj'mpathy 
and  co-operation  of  the  four  executive  agencies  of  the  Assembly  and  the  earn- 
est support  of  leaders  of  Woman's  Work  in  the  Church. 

The  Superintendent  has  shown  rare  skill  and  executive  ability  in  directing 
the  work  of  the  Auxiliary  through  the  trying  days  of  organizing  a  new  depart- 
ment of  work,  and  the  results  accomplished  during  the  seven  months  are  highly 
encouraging  and  indicate  that  the  organization  is  projected  upon  lines  which 
promise  to  promote  greater  efficiency  in  the  work  of  the  women  of  the  Church. 

For  the  information  of  the  Assembly  the  report  of  the  Auxiliary,  as  pre- 
pared for  the  Supervisory  Committee  and  the  Woman's  Council  is  submitted 
as  a  part  of  this  report.

The   Committee   on   Church   Societies   made   a  report,   which  was 
adopted  and  is  as  follows  : 

CHURCH  SOCIETIES. 
Your    Standing    Committee    on    Church    Societies    beg   leave    to    report    as 
follows : 

There  have  been  placed  in  our  hands  reports  from  "/"j  Presbyteries  and  an 
overture  (No.  Tj')  from  the  Presb5'tery  of  St.  Louis,  asking  that  the  blank  for 
sessional  reports  be  changed  by  adding  a  column  after  the  name  of  the  Society, 
calling  for  the  object  of  the  Society. 

We  recommend  that  this  overture  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

The  reports  from  Presbyteries  show  a  total  of  2,606  Woman's  Societies  (as 
against  2,528  last  year),  having  a  total  membership  of  66,684  (as  against  60,474 
last  year),  contributing  an  aggregate  of  $401,519  (last  year  $383,726). 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  yoe 

The  contributions  by  causes  were  as  follows : 

Foreign   Missions    $124,553 

Home  Missions  52,464 

Local  Causes 166,567 

Other  Causes  57,935 

Total   $401,519 

The  Presbyteries  report  1,119  Young  People's  Societies,  with  a  membership 
of  29,907,  contributing  to 

Foreign  Missions $  12,572 

■    Home  Missions  5,88o 

Local  Causes   13,853 

Other  Causes  6,198 

Total   $  38,503 

This  shows  an  increase  of  $1,675  over  the  contributions  of  last  year  from 
Young  People's  Societies. 

The  Presbyterial  reports  show  a  total  of  244  Men's  and  Boys'  Societies, 
with  a  membership  of  6,030,  contributing  to 

Foreign  Missions    $    9,285 

Home  Missions 2,859 

Local  Causes 6,038 

Other  Causes   2,294 

Total   $  20,476 

This  is  an  increase  of  $6,040  over  the  contributions  of  last  year  from  Men's 
and  Boys'  Societies. 

Your  Committee  offers  the  following  recommendations : 

1.  The  Assembly  desires  to  express  its  appreciation  of  the  faithful  and 
efficient  services  of  Mrs.  W.  C.  Winsborough,  Superintendent  of  the  Woman's 
Auxiliary,  and  its  approval  of  the  Auxiliary  and  its  work. 

2.  The  Assembly  would  urge  pastors  and  sessions  to  induce  their  Woman's 
Societies  to  connect  themselves  with  the  Presbyterials,  and  Presbyteries  to  induce 
the  Presbyterials  to  unite  in  Synodicals. 

3.  The  Assembly  urges  that  the  Woman's  Societies  be  encouraged  to  con- 
tribute to  all  four  of  the  Assembly's  causes,  on  the  basis  of  the  percentage 
adopted  by  the  Assembly,  so  far  as  this  can  be  done  without  reducing  the 
contributions  which  have  hitherto  been  given  to  any  of  these  causes. 

4.  The  Assembly  enjoins  upon  each  Presbytery  and  Synod  to  appoint  a 
Permanent  Committee  on  Woman's  Work  to  serve  as  a  link  between  the 
Woman's  Societies  and  these  bodies,  and  to  represent  the  interests  of  the  local 
work  of  Presbytery  and  Synod. 

R.  F.  Campbell,  Chairman. 

Rev.  Thornwell  Jacobs  then  addressed  the  Assembly  on  the  refound- 
ing  of  Oglethorpe  University. 


7of  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Sabbath  and  Family  Religion  made  a 
report,  which  was  adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

SABBATH  AND  FAMILY  RELIGION. 

Your  Standing  Committee  on  the  Sabbath  and  Family  Religion  would  re- 
spectfully call  attention  to  the  facts  presented  in  the  preamble  of  the  Permanent 
Committee's  report,  and  urge  that  each  Synod  appoint  a  Permanent  Committee 
on  this  subject. 

Family  Religion. — Religion  responds  to  the  deepest  and  greatest  wants  of 
human  nature,  and  when  it  is  linked  with  the  home  the  subject  is  invested  with 
supreme  significance.  The  great  need  of  the  present  day  is  Religion  in  the  Fam- 
ily, and  a  family  altar  at  every  hearthstone.  Religion  has  always  pertained  ta 
the  home,  and  the  home  today  will  give  coloring  and  character  to  the  Church 
and  citizenship.    The  revival  needed  is  household  devotion  and  family  piety. 

In  the  reports  which  come  up  from  our  Presbyteries,  your  Committee  regrets 
to  state  that  no  decided  improvement  has  been  made  among  our  people  in  regard 
to  this  important  subject,  but  there  has  been  in  many  instances  a  sad  decline. 
Your  Committee,  therefore,  would  offer  the  following  recommendations : 

1.  That  the  General  Assembly  requests  the  session  of  each  church  within 
its  bounds  to  appoint  the  last  Sabbath  in  September  as  a  day  of  special 
prayer  for  a  revival  of  family  religion  and  Sabbath  observance,  and  that  on  this 
day  an  appropriate  sermon  be  preached,  urging  their  great  importance  to  the 
Church  and  individual  member. 

2.  That  the  report  of  the  Permanent  Committee  on  Sabbath  and  Family 
Religion  be  adopted  and  published  in  the  Appendix  to  the  Assembly's  Minutes. 

3.  That  the  following  be  elected  as  the  Assembly's  Permanent  Committee 
on  the  Sabbath  and  Family  Religion:  Rev.  J.  R.  Bridges,  D.  D.,  Chairman; 
Rev.  R.  F.  Campbell,  D.  D.;  Rev.  A.  A.  McGeachy,  D.  D.,  Rev.  D.  H.  Rolston, 
and  Ruling  Elders  R.  A.  Dunn,  Dr.  W.  J.  Martin,  and  B.  T.  Price. 

Respectfully  submitted, 
J.  W.  Tyler,  Chairman. 

The  Judicial  Commission  appointed  to  try  the  case  of  Robert  A. 
Lively  vs.  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma,  made  a  report,  which  was  recom- 
mitted. 

The  Treasurer  of  the  Assembly  was  authorized  to  pay  our  pro  rata 
share  of  the  expenses  of  the  joint  meetings  held  during  the  sessions  of 
the  Assembly. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Audits  made  a  report,  which  was 
adopted  and  i?  as  follows : 

AUDITS. 

Your  Committee  on  Audits  would  respectfully  report  that  we  have  examined 
and  verified  the  books  of  the  Treasurer  and  find  them  in  balance.  No  vouchers 
were  submitted,  but  there  was  a  certificate,  signed  by  an  auditing  committee, 
certifiing  to  the  same  as  being  correct.    We,  therefore,  recommend  its  approval. 

We  call  especial  attention  to  the  second,  third  and  fourth  paragraphs  of 
the  report  of  the  Treasurer  pertaining  to  mileage  assessments  of  the  Presby- 
teries referred  to  therein,  one  declining  to  pay  the  assessment,  another  with- 
drawing from  the  Assembly's  plan. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  70g 

Paragraph  second  of  the  report  shows  that  some  of  the  Presbyteries  have 
failed  to  pay  their  assessments. 

Paragraph  third  of  the  report  shows  that  some  of  the  Commissioners 
have  failed  to  present  their  bills  of  expense  to  the  Assembly's  Committee  on 
Mileage  at  the  proper  time  and  place  as  provided  for  in  the  Minutes  adopted 
1910.     (See  page  49.) 

Paragraph  fourth.  We  find  that  the  East  Mississippi  Presbytery  has  failed 
to  pay  its  contingent  fund  for  the  past  four  years  and  amounts  in  the  aggregate 
to  the  sum  of  $187.11,  and  the  Indian  Presbytery  is  due  on  back  assessments 
to  the  amount  of  $17.57. 

We  recommend  that  the  Assembly  take  some  action  to  have  these  matters 
adjusted. 

We  have  also  examined  the  report  of  John  R.  Pharr,  Treasurer  of  the 
Trustees  of  the  General  Assembly,  and  find  the  same  in  good  condition.  No 
vouchers  accompany  the  report,  but  a  certificate  showing  examination  and 
correctness  by  an  auditing  committee,  which  is  satisfactory. 

We  find  that  the  term  of  office  of  Alexander  Martin,  J.  B.  Ross,  and  John 
R.  Pharr,  Trustees  of  the  General  Assembly,  expire  at  this  meeting  of  the 
Assembly.  We  therefore  commend  their  work  and  faithfulness  and  recommend 
their  reappointment. 

There  is  attached  to  and  made  a  part  of  the  Treasurer's  report  a  statement 
showing  that  there  was  no  provision  made  for  the  payment  of  our  apportionment 
to  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ  in  America  at  its  quadrennial 
meeting  in  December  last ;  we  suggest  the  Assembly  go  on  record  as  to  its  atti- 
tude in  this  matter. 

We  also  have  examined  the  certificates  of  the  Auditing  Committees  and 
experts  of  the  Execntive  Committees  of  Foreign  Missions,  Home  Missions, 
Christian  Education  and  Ministerial  Relief,  Publication  and  Sabbath  School 
Work,  and  find  that  they  are  all  in  proper  form  and  show  satisfactory  audits 
and  settlements  by  the  various  accountants. 

Your  Committee  would  suggest  that  the  Auditing  Committees  heretofore  ap- 
pointed at  the  last  General  Assembly  be  continued  and  be  instructed  to  employ 
expert  accountants  to  assist  them  in  making  their  reports. 

We  suggest  that  the  overture  from  the  Presbytery  of  Louisville,  concerning 
the  Susanna  P.  Lees  legacy  fund,  amounting  to  the  sum  of  ten  thousand  dollars, 
be  answered  in  the  affirmative. 

We  further  suggest  that  the  said  sum  of  ten  thousand  dollars  be  turned 
over  to  a  committee,  consisting  of  Judge  John  Stites,  Dr.  J.  S.  Lyons,  and  Dr. 
Henry  H.  Sweets,  of  Louisville,  K3^,  to  be  used  in  the  erection  of  a  suitable 
building  when  a  similar  sum  is  raised  by  the  congregation  of  the  James  Lees 
Memorial  Church,  of  Louisville,  Ky. ;  one-half  of  said  contribution  must  be  in 
cash  and  the  balance  covered  with  good  and  sufficient  pledges. 

We  further  recommend  that  the  assessments  for  the  uses  of  the  General 
Assembly  for  contingent  fund  and  mileage  for  the  year  beginning  April  ist, 
1914,  be  reckoned  on  the  basis  of  four  cents  per  member,  and  that  the  whole  be 
apportioned  by  the  Stated  Clerk  to  the  several  Presbyteries  and  proper  notice 
thereof  be  sent  down  to  them.  Respectfully  submitted, 

John  McSween,  For  the  Committee.

The  Standing  Committee  on  Mileage  made  a  report,  which  was 
adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

REPORT  ON  MILEAGE. 

Your  Committee  on  Mileage  would  report  as  follows : 

(i)  Checks  to  the  total  amount  of  $5,747.96  have  been  issued  to  203  Com- 
missioners, in  full  payment  of  their  estimated  expenses  of  attendance  at  this 
Assembly. 

(2)  In  view  of  the  fact  that  the  ministerial  Commissioner  from  Central 
Mississippi  Presbytery  was  providentially  called  from  the  last  Assembly  early 
in  its  proceedings,  and  that  his  Presbytery  would  have  had  no  representative  had 
not  his  alternate  taken  his  place,  we  have  paid  the  expenses  of  said  Commissioner, 
the  last  Assembly  having  met  those  of  his  alternate. 

(3)  The  Presbyteries  of  Bethel,  Central  Mississippi,  Cherokee,  and  Fay- 
etteville  have  failed  to  forward  their  assessment  on  mileage  for  the  past  year. 

(4)  There  have  been  placed  in  our  hands  overtures  from  Nashville  and 
Dallas  Presbyteries.  It  is  recommended  that  the  overture  of  Dallas  Presbytery, 
asking  that  the  expenses  of  each  Commissioner  be  published  in  the  Assembly's 
Minutes,  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

We  also  recommend  that  the  overture  of  Nashville  Presbytery,  asking  that 
the  Assembly  take  the  necessary  steps  to  abolish  the  present  mileage  plan,  or 
else  reduce  the  present  rate  of  assessment,  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

J.  H.  Long,  Chairman.

The  Select  Committee  to  declare  and  reaffirm  the  attitude  of  the 
Church  toward  the  liquor  traffic  made  a  report,  which  was  adopted 
and  is  as  follows : 

REPORT  OF  SPECIAL  COMMITTEE  TO  REAFFIRM  THE  CHURCH'S 
POSITION  WITH  REGARD  TO  THE  LIQUOR  TRAFFIC. 

There  has  been  referred  to  your  Special  Committee  the  petition  from  the 
session  of  the  Richwood  Church,  praying  the  Assembly  to  petition  the  State 
"to  repeal  all  laws  licensing  the  saloon  and  to  correct  all  revenue  laws  which 
contradict  the  eternal  principles  of  Rectitude,"  and  the  recommendation  of 
the  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures  for  a  special  committee  to  reaffirm  the 
position  of  the  Church. 

We  reply : 

(i)  We  regard  such  a  petition  to  the  State  as  is  prayed  for  as  of  no 
practical  value  toward  remedying  the  evils  of  the  liquor  traffic,  since  these 
remedies  lie  with  the  legislative  bodies  of  the  several  States,  and  such  legisla- 
tures will  ordinarily  act  only  in  response  to  a  definite  demand  from  a  majority 
of  the  voters  of  their  States. 

(2)  But  while  the  Assembly  does  not  consider  it  within  its  province  to 
make  the  petition  asked  for,  yet  this  Assembly  would  emphatically  reaffirm  the 
deliverance  of  the  Assembly  of  1892,  which  has  also  been  reaffirmed  by  subse- 
quent Assemblies,  as  follows: 


7oj  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

"Whereas,  We  recognize  the  liquor  traffic  as  an  aggressive  enemy  to  the 
home,  the  Church,  and  the  State,  an  alarming  menace  to  the  Christian  Sabbath 
and  a  powerful  obstacle  to  the  work  of  establishing  Christ's  kingdom  in 
foreign  lands ;  and, 

"Whereas,  'Sin  is  any  want  of  conformity  unto,  or  transgression  of,  the 
law  of  God,'  and  a  failure  to  manifest  disapproval  of,  or  opposition  to,  a  pre- 
vailing evil  is  a  sin  of  omission ;  therefore, 

"Resolved,  That  we  reaffirm  the  deliverance  and  testimony  of  our  Church 
made  in  1891  on  the  subject  of  temperance,  the  liquor  traffic  and  abstinence 
from  intoxicants  as  a  beverage,  and  we  bear  our  testimony  against  the  estab- 
lishing and  promoting  of  the  traffic  in  intoxicating  liquors  as  the  fruitful  source 
of  sin,  crime,  and  misery." 

And  in  conformity  with  these  and  other  deliverances,  we  urge  on  all  our 
membership  the  duty  of  using  all  legitimate  means  for  the  banishment  of  this 
traffic  from  the  land,  and  for  striving  by  voice  and  vote,  in  all  ways  which  may 
be  approved  by  their  Christian  conscience  and  judgment,  for  the  enactment  of 
such  laws  as  shall  most  speedily  and  effectively  bring  this  result  to  pass. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

D.  S.  Gage,  Chairman. 

The  Select  Committee  on  the  Home  and  School  at  Fredericksburg, 
Va.,  made  a  report,  which  was  amended  and  adopted,  and  is  as  follows : 

REPORT  OF  THE  SELECT  COMAIITTEE  ON  THE  ASSEMBLY'S  HOME 

AND  SCHOOL. 

The  Special  Committee,  to  which  was  referred  Overtures  66  to  69-a, 
touching  the  Assembly's  Home  and  School,  would  report  that  we  have  carefully 
considered  the  overture  from  the  Synod  of  Virginia  asking  that  the  ownership 
of  the  Assembly's  Home  and  School  be  transferred  to  that  Synod,  and  over- 
tures from  Roanoke,  West  Hanover,  and  Lexington  Presbyteries,  protesting 
against  such  transfer. 

The  Committee  has  received  valuable  information  from  several  Commis- 
sioners from  Virginia  and  others,  including  Mr.  J.  W.  Adams,  of  Fredericks- 
burg, and  Secretary  Sweets,  of  the  Executive  Committee  of  Christian  Education 
and  Ministerial  Relief.  And  the  Committee  has  studied  the  action  of  the 
Bristol  Assembly,  1912,  action  based  upon  the  full  report  of  an  ad  interim 
committee. 

We  unanimously  recommend  that  the  Assembly  take  action  as  follows : 

First.  After  having  expended  a  quarter  of  a  million  dollars  of  the 
Church's  money  on  the  Assembly's  Home  and  School  since  it  was  founded  by 
the  Macon  Assembly  in  1893,  the  Assembly  owes  a  duty  to  the  Church  and  to 
this  institution  which  it  is  not  at  liberty  to  evade.  Therefore,  the  Assembly  declines 
at  present  to  grant  the  request,  and  asks  the  Synod  to  give  the  matter  further 
consideration. 

Second.  Attention  is  hereby  called  to  the  action  of  the  Bristol  Assembly, 
Minutes,  1912,  pages  7oe  and  1 19-122,  by  which  this  institution  is  in  future  to  be 
maintained,  as  originally  founded,  as  a  home  and  school,  rather  than  as  a 
community  and  college.  Respectfully  submitted, 

Geo.  L.  Bitzer,  Chairman. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  70k 

The  Judicial  Commission  to  try  the  case  of  Robert  A.  Lively  and 
others  vs.  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma  made  a  report,  which  was  approved 
and  the  judgment  of  the  Commission  was  entered  as  the  judgment  of 
the  Assembly  in  the  case.    The  report  is  as  follows : 

Your  Judicial  Commission,  appointed  to  try  the  complaint  of  Robert  Lively 
and  others  against  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma,  beg  leave  to  report  its  findings 
as  follows : 

It  is  the  judgment  of  your  Commission  that  the  action  of  the  Synod  of 
Oklahoma  in  this  case  was  irregular,  in  that  the  Judicial  Committee  of  said 
Synod  exceeded  its  authority  by  recommending  action  in  regard  to  a  complaint 
referred  to  it,  when  it  should  have  merely  reported  the  regularity  or  irregularity 
of  the  complaint;  and  the  complaint  is  sustained  and  the  case  remanded  to  the 
Synod  for  re-hearing.  Respectfully  submitted, 

Wm.  Caldwell,  Chairman. 
Gary  F.  Moore,  Secretary. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Bills  and  Overtures  made  a  supple- 
mental report,  which  was  adopted.  The  report  as  a  whole  was  then 
adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

Overture  No.  18.  In  answer  to  the  overture  from  the  Presbytery  of 
North  Mississippi,  asking  the  Assembly  to  appoint  an  Ad  Interim  Committee 
to  take  into  consideration  and  propose  to  the  next  General  Assembly  some 
modifications  of  the  present  requirements  of  candidates  for  the  gospel  ministry 
whereby  young  men,  who  have  taken  degrees  other  than  those  which  require 
the  ancient  languages,  may  be  ordinarily  admitted  into  the  gospel  ministry,  we 
recommend  that  the  above  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

Overture  No.  15.  In  answer  to  the  overture  from,  the  Presbytery  of 
Louisville,  asking  the  General  Assembly  to  take  steps  to  amend  Paragraph  94 
of  the  Book  of  Church  Order  by  including  "complaints"  along  with  "appeals" 
in  the  provision  of  this  paragraph,  provided  a  sufficient  number  of  Presbyteries 
shall  have  voted  for  the  amendment  proposed  by  the  last  Assembly  to  make 
said  amendment  effective,  we  recommend  that  this  overture  be  answered  in 
the  negative. 

Overture  No.  17.  In  answer  to  the  overture  from  the  Synod  of  Oklahoma, 
asking  the  Assembly  to  make  a  deliverance  indicating  what  shall  constitute  a 
quorum  of  a  session  where  there  is  no  pastor,  and  the  session  is  composed  of 
two  elders,  we  would  answer  that  the  two  elders  constitute  a  quorum  of  the 
session. 

Overture  No.  12.  In  answer  to  the  overture  from  Bethel  Presbytery, 
asking  for  additional  amendment  to  Chapter  VI,  Section  S,  as  follows :  In 
Chapter  VI,  Section  5,  Paragraph  118,  after  the  words  "government  and  dis- 
cipline of  the  Church,"  insert  the  words  "or  in  lieu  of  the  examination  in 
Philosophy,  Ecclesiastical  History,  the  Greek  and  Hebrew  languages,"  it  may 
accept  certificates  of  approved  institutions  of  learning. 

We  recommend  that  this  Overture  be  sent  down  to  the  Presbyteries  for 
their  consent  and  advice. 


7ol  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

Overtures  Nos.  20  to  24.  We  have  received  overtures  from  the  Presby- 
teries of  Piedmont,  Central  Texas,  Knoxville,  North  Mississippi,  and  Mont- 
gomery, asking  that  the  Book  of  Church  Order,  Chapter  15,  Paragraph  276,  be 
amended  by  adding  the  following  words  at  the  close  of  the  paragraph:  "In 
cases  where  the  bona  fide  letter  of  dismission  is  not  or  cannot  be  procured,  sessions 
are  authorized  to  issue  affiliate  letters  of  membership  to  students  only,  such 
affiliate  letters  shall  in  no  wise  affect  the  validity  of  the  membership  in  the 
home  church  or  confer  any  voting  power  in  the  church  with  which  it  is 
deposited."  We  recommend  that  the  above  overtures  be  answered  in  the  nega- 
tive, but  that  the  Publication  Committee  be  directed  to  prepare  blanks  for 
letters  of  affiliation  for  those  who  are  temporarily  out  of  the  bounds  of  the 
congregation,  and  that  pastors  be  especially  urged  to  use  these  forms  for 
students  who  are  away  from  home  at  school. 

Overture  No.  16.  The  Presbytery  of  Potosi  overtures  the  General  Assem- 
bly to  render  decisions  on  the  following  questions : 

1.  When  a  court  formally  adopts  the  minutes  of  its  proceedings  as  kept 
by  the  Temporary  Clerk,  are  they  then  the  official  minutes  of  that  court,  or 
must  they  first  be  put  in  their  final  form  by  the  Stated  Clerk  and  adopted 
again  in  that  form  before  they  become  official? 

2.  When  a  reference,  or  a  complaint,  or  an  appeal  has  been  withdrawn 
from  the  court  with  which  it  has  been  placed,  does  it  become  a  part  of  the 
minutes  of  that  court  or  not? 

3.  Can  a  lower  court  amend  or  modify  its  official  minutes  after  they 
have  been  examined  and  approved  by  the  court  of  review  without  first  gaining 
the  consent  of  the  court  of  review  to  so  do? 

We  recommend  the  following  answers : 

1.  They  become  final  when  adopted. 

2.  The  court  has  power  to  determine. 

3.  No. 

Overture  No.  26.  The  Presbytery  of  Upper  Missouri  overtures  the  General 
Assembly  to  rescind  its  deliverances  in  1884,  declaring  that  baptism  administered

baptized.     We  recommend  that  this  overture  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

Overtures  19  and  19-a.  Overtures  from  Kanawha  and  Texas-Mexican

Paris,  asking  that  the  ecclesiastical  year  be  changed  to  conform  to  the  calendar

Overtures  Nos.  30-30-a.  Overtures  from  the  Synods  of  Alabama  and 
Georgia,  concerning  the  transfer  of  the  church  at  Phoenix  City,  Alabama,  to 
the  Synod  of  Georgia,  Presbytery  of  Macon.  We  recommend  that  the  request 
be  granted  and  that  the  church  be  transferred. 

No.  C.  The  overture  from  the  elders  of  the  Richwood  Presbyterian 
Church,  asking  the  General  Assembly  to  petition  the  State  to  repeal  all 
laws  licensing  the  saloon  and  to  correct  all  revenue  laws  which  contradict  the 
eternal  principle  of  rectitude,  is  most  respectfully  answered  in  the  negative. 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  70m 

Your  Committee  would  most  respectfully  suggest  that  in  order  that  there 
may  be  no  misunderstanding  of  the  Church's  position  on  this  question,  the 
Assembly  appoint  a  special  committee  to  declare  or  reaffirm  the  Church's 
position  and  report  to  this  Assembly. 

No.  47.  The  Presbytery  of  Potomac  overtures  the  General  Assembly  to 
exercise  the  utmost  care  in  the  selecting  of  the  membership  of  the  General

mittees only  such  men  as  have  proved  themselves  to  be  vitally  interested  in 
and  fully  informed  about  the  work  to  which  they  may  be  called  to  give  their 
attention. 

Your  Committee  would  return  this  overture  to  the  Assembly  without 
recommendation. 

No.  90.  In  answer  to  the  overture  from  Dr.  A.  W.  Pitzer,  asking  the 
Assembly  to  amend  Chapter  II  of  the  Book  of  Church  Order  on  the  subject 
of  Licensure  and  Ordination,  and  asking  that  the  following  paragraph  be 
placed  at  the  end  of  the  chapter:  "Provided,  however,  that  Presbyteries  may 
set  apart  to  the  gospel  ministry  by  licensure  or  ordination  godly  and  experienced 
men,  well  versed  in  the  sacred  Scriptures,  acquainted  with  theology.  Church 
history  and  the  standards  of  the  Church,  apt  to  teach,  and  called  to  this  work 
by  the  Spirit,  providence  and  people  of  God."  We  recommend  that  it  be 
answered  in  the  negative.

Presbytery,  concerning  the  reception  of  the  First  Avenue  Presbyterian  Church, 
U.  S.  A.,  of  Birmingham,  Ala.,  and  the  combining  of  its  forces  with  the  Wood- 
lawn  Presbyterian  Church,  U.  S.,  your  Committee  would  report  that  the  whole 
matter  comes  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Presbytery. 

No.  E.  Certain  ministers  of  the  Presbytery  of  Fayetteville  petition 
the  General  Assembly  for  deliverances  upon  the  following  questions : 

First.  Is  the  doctrine  of  the  salvation  of  all  infants  dying  in  infancy  "ex- 
pressly set  down  in  Scripture?" 

Second.  May  the  doctrine  of  the  salvation  of  all  infants  dying  in  infancy 
be  deduced  from  Scripture  "by  good  and  necessary  consequences?" 

We  would  recommend  that  the  petition  be  returned  without  answer. 

Overture  No.  14.  In  answer  to  the  Overture  from  the  Presbytery  of 
Potomac,  asking  that  the  Book  of  Church  Order,  Chapter  VI,  Section  6,  Para- 
graph 4,  be  so  amended  as  to  insert  between  the  words  "a  discussion  in  Latin" 
and  the  words  "of  a  thesis  on  some  common  head  in  divinity,"  insert  the  words 
"or  in  English,"  we  would  report  that  this  is  already  the  law  of  the  Church. 

In  answer  to  Overture  No.  13,  from  the  Presbytery  of  Orange,  we  recom- 
mend that  the  General  Assembly  send  down  to  the  Presbyteries  the  following 
amendments  to  Rules  of  Discipline,  Chapter  XV : 

(i)  Combine  Paragraphs  277  and  279  so  that  Paragraph  277  shall  read: 
"When  a  Church  member  shall  remove  his  residence  beyond  the  bounds  of  his 
congregation  into  the  bounds  of  another,  if  he  shall  neglect  for  twelve  months, 
after  due  admonition  and  without  satisfactory  reasons  given  to  the  session  of 
his  church,  to  have  his  membership  transferred,  his  name  shall  be  retired  upon 
a  separate  roll  until  he  shall  appear  and  give  satisfaction ;  of  which  due  record 


7on  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

shall  be  made.     The  foregoing  provision  shall  also  apply  to  a  member  whosf 
residence  is  unknown  for  three  years." 

(2)     Re-number  the  last  two  sections  of  this  chapter  IV  and  V,  respec 
tively. 

No.  48.  The  Presbytery  of  Wilmington  overtures  the  General  Assembly  to 
rescind  the  action  granting  our  Executive  Committees  power  to  elect  field  and 
other  secretaries  and  to  restore  that  power  to  the  General  Assembly.  We 
recommend  that  this  overture  be  answered  in  the  affirmative ;  and  that  the  nom- 
ination of  Field  Secretary  and  others  be  made  by  the  several  Executive  Com- 
mittees. This  does  not  take  away  from  the  Assembly  the  right  to  make  othei 
nominations  if  it  so  desire.  This  action  will  go  into  effect  after  the  dissolution 
of  this  Assembly. 

To  Overtures  Nos.  25  and  27,  from  the  Presbyteries  of  West  Hanover  and 
Brazos,  touching  Romanism,  the  answer  proposed  by  the  Committee  on  Bills  and

Overture  No.  31;  The  Presbytery  of  East  Hanover  overtures  the  General 
Assembly  for  relief  in  connection  with  the  Pan-Presbyterian  Exhibit  at  James- 
town. We  recommend  that  representatives  from  those  interested  be  given  10 
minutes  in  which  to  present  this  matter  to  the  Assembly. 

T.  S.  Clyce,  Chairman. 

Your  Committee  would  report  that  papers  have  come  into  our  hands  from 
Miss  G.  E.  McConnell,  of  New  York,  and  Edwin  Genge,  General  Secretary  Troy 
Conference,  M.  E.  Church,  asking  that  action  be  taken  petitioning  the  civil 
authorities  for  the  relief  of  the  Jews.    We  recommend  that  no  action  be  taken. 

2nd.  A  communication  from  Paul  R.  Hickok,  Director  of  the  International 
Reform.  Bureau,  Washington,  D.  C,  looking  to  resolutions  on  the  white  slave 
traffic.    We  recommend  that  this  paper  be  answered  in  the  negative. 

Francis  Tappey,  Chairman  Pro  Tern. 

The  following  resolution  was  adopted :  In  response  to  the  address 
of  Rev.  A.  A.  Holzer,  the  Assembly  expresses  its  deep  interest  in 
Evangelistic  work  among  the  Jews  and  refers  the  matter  to  our  Execu- 
tive Committee  of  Home  Missions. 

Mr.  R.  E.  Magill,  on  behalf  of  the  four  Executive  Committees, 
presented  a  report  concerning  the  establishment  of  a  Training  School 
for  Lay  Workers,  which  was  adopted  and  is  as  follows : 

REPORT  OF  SPECIAL  COMMITTEE  ON  A  TRAINING  SCHOOL  FOR 

LAY  WORKERS. 
The  General  Assembly  of  1912  (Minutes,  page  63)  recommended: 
(i)  "That  a  Committee  of  two  representatives  from,  each  Executive  Com- 
mittee be  appointed  by  the  several  Executive  Committees  to  prepare  a  general 
plan  and  the  curriculum  in  outline  for  a  training  school  for  lay  workers,  and 
also  to  receive  propositions  as  to  location  and  receive  subscriptions  for  the  es- 
tablishment of  said  school,  to  report  to  the  next  Assembly,"  and 

(2)  "In  order  to  meet  the  present  need  of  training,  that  the  Assembly 
approve  the  plan  submitted  by  the  Committee  for  holding  a  series  of  conferences 
on  Systematic  Beneficence,  to  be  conducted  by  representatives  of  its  Executive 
Committees." 


MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY  70-0 

(3)  The  proposal  of  the  Presbyterian  Council  of  Charlotte,  N.  C,  for  the 
establishment  in  that  city  of  a  "Training  School  for  Nurses  for  Home  and 
Foreign  Work"  was  referred  to  this  Special  Committee. 

In  pursuance  of  these  instructions,  the  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Mis- 
sions appointed  as  their  representatives  R.  O.  Flinn  and  J.  G.  Snedecor. 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions  appointed  J.  D.  Blanton  and 
C.  A.  Rowland. 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Christian  Education  and  Ministerial  Relief 
appointed  J.  S.  Lyons  and  H.  H.  Sweets. 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Publication  appointed  D.  C.  Lilly  and  A.  L. 
Phillips,  with  R.  E.  Magill  and  W.  L.  Lingle  as  alternates  to  either. 

R.  E.  Magill,  who  had  been  appointed  convener  of  the  Committee  by  the 
Bristol  Assembly,  called  a  meeting  to  be  held  in  Montreat,  N.  C,  August  14,  1912. 
The  Committee  met  in  accordance  with  this  call,  and  there  were  present  Magill, 
Chairman ;  Lyons,  Flinn,  Snedecor,  Rowland  Lingle,  and  E.  W.  Smith,  of  the 
Executive  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions. 

Inasmuch  as  the  substance  of  recommendation  number  2,  above  recited, 
was  incorporated  in  the  Conferences  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship,  to  be 
arranged  by  the  Assembly's  Campaign  Committee,  nothing  was  done  in  regard 
t'j  the  Conference  on  Systematic  Beneficence. 

The  prosposal  of  the  Presbyterian  Council  of  Charlotte,  N.  C,  for  the 
establishment  of  a  Nurse's  Training  School  is  declined,  for  the  reason  that 
tiaining  for  nurses  will  probably  be  included  in  the  curriculum  of  the  Training 
School  for  Lay  Workers,  if  such  shall  be  established. 

As  to  the  establishment  of  the  Training  School  for  Lay  Workers,  no  definite 
proposal,  meeting  the  conditions  prescribed  by  the  Bristol  Assembly,  was  sub- 
mitted at  the  Montreat  meeting,  although  tentative  and  encouraging  overtures 
were  made  by  Rev.  W.  W.  Moore  for  Richmond,  Va.,  Rev.  R.  C.  Anderson  for 
Montreat,  N.  C,  and  Rev.  C.  G.  Vardell  for  Red  Springs,  N.  C. 

At  meetings  of  the  Committee  held  in  Atlanta,  Ga.,  May  13th  and  15th, 
1913,  a  definite  proposal  for  the  location  of  the  training  school  near  Richmond, 
Va.,  was  made  by  the  Presbyterian  League  of  the  city,  with  abundant  guaranty 
that  all  the  conditions  prescribed  bj''  the  Assembly  were  met,  to  wit :  A  free 
site  with  adequate  buildings  and  a  competent  faculty,  and  running  expenses  for 
three  years,  without  involving  the  Assembly  in  financial  responsibility.  The 
Richmond  brethren  thinking  that  we  had  authority  to  locate  the  school  without 
reference  to  the  Assembly,  and  that  the  location  would  be  decided  upon  before 
its  present  meeting,  made  their  proposal  conditional  on  its  acceptance  by  the 
middle  of  May,  1913. 

Our  investigations  have  shown  clearly  the  need,  and  increasing  desire,  for  a 
Training  School  for  Lay  Workers,  under  the  control  of  the  General  Assembly, 
and  adapted  to  the  needs  of  our  Church.  There  is  a  growing  interest  on  the 
part  of  brethren  in  diflferent  sections  of  our  territory,  in  the  establishment  of 
the  school.  We  wish  to  record  our  sincere  appreciation  of  the  generous  proposals 
made,  especially  of  the  overture  from  Richmond. 

Several  reasons  might  be  given  why  we  do  not  recommend  the  acceptance 
of  any  of  the  proposals  at  present,  but  we  think  it  sufficient  to  say  that  it  does 


70p  MINUTES  OF  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY 

not  seem  wise  to  decide  the  matter  of  location  without  further  notice  to  all 
who  may  be  interested.    We  therefore  recommend : 

(ist)  That  the  Special  Committee  of  two  representatives  from  each  of  the 
Assembly's  Executive  Committees  be  continued. 

(2nd)  That  said  Committee  be  authorized  to  prepare  a  curriculum  in  out- 
line, and  to  define  the  relation  of  the  Training  School  to  the  General  Assembly, 
somewhat  similar  to  the  relation  existing  between  the  Theological  Seminaries 
and  the  General  Assembly. 

(3rd)  That  said  Committee  be  authorized  to  locate  the  Training  School 
within  one  year  from  the  date  of  the  passage  of  this  paper,  after  full  investigation, 
provided,  that  enough  money  shall  be  secured  by  special  gift  to  purchase  a  site, 
provide  necessary  buildings,  and  maintain  the  school  adequately  for  at  least 
three  years ;  and  provided,  further,  that  the  General  Assembly  shall  not  be  held 
responsible  for  any  part  of  the  expense. 

By  order  of  the  Committee. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

R.  E.  Magill,  Chairman. 

Atlanta,  Ga.,  May  19,  1913. 

The  following  resolution  of  thanks  was  adopted  by  a  rising  vote: 
Atlanta  has  made  herself  more  historic  than  ever  by  the  royal  entertain- 
ment of  three  Assemblies.  Her  hospitality  has  been  lavish  and  her 
efforts  splendid  and  superb  to  provide  for  the  comfort  and  welfare  of 
the  members  of  the  Assembly.  Be  it,  therefore,  Resolved,  That  this 
Assembly  expresses  its  heartfelt  gratitude  to  the  good  people  of  Atlanta 
for  their  hospitality,  which  has  seldom  been  equalled,  and  for  their 
royal  acts  of  kindness,  which  will  never  be  forgotten.  Also  we  extend 
our  thanks  to  the  railroads  for  their  reduced  rates  and  kindness  and 
to  all  persons  who  have  contributed  to  the  success  of  the  Assembly. 
Also  we  extend  most  cordial  thanks  to  the  Rev.  R.  O.  Flinn,  D.  D.,  the 
pastor  of  the  church,  for  his  uniform  courtesy  and  kindness  to  the 
members ;  also  to  the  press  of  Atlanta  for  liberal  space  in  their  columns 
for  the  reports  of  the  Assembly. 

The  Assembly  then  adopted  a  vote  of  thanks  to  the  Moderator  for 
his  uniform  courtesy  and  consideration  of  the  members  of  the  Assembly 
and  for  his  fairness  in  all  his  decisions. 

The  report  of  the  Committee  on  the  Minutes  of  the  Synod  of  Okla- 
homa were  then  taken  from  the  docket  and  the  records  approved. 

The  minutes  of  the  sessions  of  today  were  read  and  approved. 

The  whole  business  of  the  Assembly  being  finished,  and  the  vote 
being  taken  for  dissolving  the  present  Assembly,  after  singing,  prayer 
and  the  Apostolic  benediction,  the  Moderator  said  from  the  chair :  "By 
virtue  of  the  authority  delegated  to  me  by  the  Church,  let  this  Assembly 
be  dissolved,  and  I  do  hereby  dissolve  it,  and  require  another  General 
Assembly,  chosen  in  the  same  manner,  to  meet  in  the  Central  Presby- 
terian Church,  Kansas  City,  Mo.,  May  21,  11  a.  m.,  1914."

III.    ANNUAL  REPORT  ON  FOREIGN  MISSIONS. 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions  herewith  submits  to  the 
General  Assembly  the  report  of  its  work  for  the  year  ending  March  31,  1913. 

At  the  close  of  our  mission  year,  as  for  many  years  past,  we  are  called 
upon  to  record,  with  grateful  recognition  of  the  goodness  of  God,  His  blessing 
that  has  attended  the  labors  of  our  missionaries  and  the  wonderful  manifesta- 
tions of  His  overruling  providence  in  the  fields  occupied  by  our  workers  in 
preparing  the  way  for  the  coming  of  His  kingdom.  The  total  number  of  addi- 
tions by  baptism  reported  from  all  our  fields  is  3,185.  This  is  an  average  of 
31  to  each  ordained  missionary. 

The  indirect  results  of  the  work,  which  cannot  be  shown  by  statistics,  but 
which  are  of  immense  importance  in  their  bearing  upon  its  future  progress,  are 
such  that  if  an  Old  Testament  prophet  were  among  us  to  describe  them,  we 
may  wonder  if  he  would  not  use  the  same  forms  of  speech  the  Old  Testament 
prophets  did  use  in  describing  the  supernatural  events  of  their  own  time. 

AFRICA. 

Our  responsibility  in  this  field  has  been  increased  over  what  it  was 
originally  supposed  to  be  by  the  fact  that  some  tribes  who  were  outside  of  our 
original  territorial  limits  have  brought  themselves  within  those  limits  by  appeals 
for  help  that  could  not  be  resisted.  Some  years  ago  an  officer  of  the  State  an- 
nounced to  one  of  our  workers  that,  notwithstanding  the  fact  that  our  mission 
had  given  the  State  considerable  trouble,  he  had  found  in  his  travels  that  where 
our  work  had  gone  the  people  had  been  taught  to  pay  their  taxes  and  to  obey 
the  laws,  and  that  his  own  work  had  been  made  much  easier  on  that  account. 
He  stated  that  he  had,  therefore,  told  all  the  chiefs  in  his  district  that  if  they 
preferred  our  work  to  that  of  the  Catholics,  he  would  approve  of  our  missionaries 
opening  work  among  them.  Following  this  announcement,  messages  were  re- 
ceived from  a  number  of  chiefs,  stating  that  this  option  had  been  given  them  by 
the  State,  and  that  they  chose  our  work  rather  than  that  of  the  Catholics,  and 
begged  the  mission  to  send  them  teachers  at  once.  In  this  way  the  whole  section 
of  the  Congo  State  lying  between  the  Kassai  and  Sankuru  rivers,  containing 
about  150,000  square  miles  of  territory  and  nearly  three  millions  of  population, 
has  come  under  our  missionary  care. 

Two  Notable  Events. — ^Two  especially  notable  events  have  occurred  in  the 
history  of  the  mission  during  the  year.  The  first  is  the  sailing  and  arrival  on 
the  field  of  fourteen  new  missionaries,  sent  out  on  the  fund  subscribed  for  that 
purpose  at  the  Laymen's  Missionary  Convention  at  Chattanooga  last  year,  and 
by  individuals  and  churches  as  the  result  of  subsequent  personal  appeals.    What 


APPENDIX  75 

this  meant  to  the  overburdened  workers  that  had  been  so  long  waiting  for  help, 
and  to  the  Native  Church,  in  answer  to  whose  prayers  they  came,  was  expressed 
at  a  thanksgiving  service  held  at  Luebo  on  Christmas  Day  at  which,  after 
speeches  from  the  new  missionaries  and  from  several  of  the  natives,  the  great 
congregation  of  over  twelve  hundred  lifted  up  their  voices  in  loud  praise.  One 
of  the  missionaries  writes,  "As  we  sang  the  hymn  'Rejoice  and  Be  Glad,'  you 
could  have  heard  us  miles  away." 

The  sending  of  these  missionaries  to  Africa  was  made  imperative  by  the 
extraordinary  situation  that  had  developed  in  that  field.  The  Mohammedans 
were  coming  down  from  the  North ;  Belgian  priests  were  pouring  in  from 
the  West.  In  the  face  of  this  our  missionary  force  had  become  so  depleted 
that  our  native  Christians  appointed  a  season  of  prayer  and  fasting  that  rein- 
forcements might  come  from  the  home  Church.  Some  of  them  were  in  such 
agony  of  supplication  that  for  three  days  they  touched  neither  food  nor  drink. 

The  other  event  of  special  interest  was  the  volunteering  of  twenty-one  of 
our  native  evangelists  trained  at  Luebo  to  help  Bishop  Lambuth,  of  the  M.  E. 
Church,  South,  in  the  establishment  of  their  new  mission  among  the  Batetelas. 
As  our  Methodist  brethren  have  entered  this  field  on  our  invitation,  we  count 
it  a  pleasure  and  privilege  to  be  able  to  render  them  this  invaluable  assistance  at 
the  beginning  of  their  work.  They  will  also  make  use  to  some  extent  of  the 
Lapsley  in  their  transport  work,  and  other  measures  of  co-operation  will  be 
adopted  as  the  work  progresses. 

Relations  With  the  State. — An  almost  revolutionary  change  in  our  relations 
with  the  State  is  indicated  by  the  fact  that  recently  a  steamer  of  the  Kassai  Com- 
pany transported  Mt.  Arnold  and  fifteen  natives  from  Luebo  to  Leopoldville  free 
of  charge,  and  also  offered  to  put  The  Lapsley  on  their  dry  dock  and  put  new 
plates  on  her  wherever  needed.  The  cash  value  of  these  favors  at  market 
prices  would  have  been  not  less  than  $500.  The  director  of  the  company  gave 
as  the  reason  why  they  were  glad  to  do  these  things  for  us  the  kindness  of  Dr. 
Coppedge  in  ministering  to  the  officers  and  employees  of  the  company. 

A  special  gift  of  $S,500  for  the  building  of  a  hospital  at  Luebo  has  been 
placed  in  our  hands. 

With  the  addition  of  three  physicians  and  one  man  for  the  printing  work, 
the  present  force  in  this  field  is  deemed  sufficient  for  our  present  needs. 

The  mission  reports  9,215  members  connected  with  the  Church  in  this  field, 
of  whom  829  were  added  during  the  year. 

BRAZIL. 

The  report  from  northern  Brazil  sounds  a  note  of  optimism,  as  usual.  This 
is  the  more  remarkable  because  that  is  the  mission  which,  from  the  beginning 
of  its  work  in  1873  until  now,  we  have  persistently  required  to  make  bricks 
without  straw.  At  no  station  occupied  by  the  mission  have  we  ever  erected 
tither  a  missionary  residence  or  a  school  building. 

Theological  Seminary. — We  have  a  Theological  Seminary  at  Garanhuns,  in 
which  the  spare  rooms  in  the  rented  homes  of  the  missionaries  serve  for  dormi- 
tories and  their  private  studies  for  class-rooms.  Instead  of  modern  class-room 
facilities,  Mr.  Henderlite  and  Mr.  Thompson  have  the  conjugations  of  the 
Greek  and  Hebrew  verbs  chiseled  on  the  mud  walls  of  their  studies,  and  their 


76  APPENDIX 

pupils  either  sit  or  stand  during  recitation,  as  convenience  allows.  But  out  oi 
this  school  have  gone  eight  ordained  pastors  and  two  licentiates,  who  are  minis- 
tering to  fourteen  organized  churches  and  fifty-two  outside  mission  stations,  besides 
doing  an  enormous  amount  of  itinerating  work  through  the  vast  territory  en- 
closed by  a  line  running  from  the  equator  eight  degrees  south,  and  from  Per- 
nambuco  on  the  eastern  coast  of  Brazil  more  than  a  thousand  miles  west  to  the 
borders  of  Bolivia,  In  this  field  are  now  reported  2,314  communmg  members; 
273  of  whom  were  added  during  the  past  year. 

Girls'  School  at  Pernambuco. — The  Girls'  School  at  Pernambuco  which  the 
mission  at  its  last  meeting  named  in  honor  of  its  heroic  founder,  "The  Eliza  M. 
Reed  Collegio  Americana,"  has  had  a  successful  year,  and  has  been  strengthened 
by  the  addition  of  Miss  Edmonia  R.  Martin,  of  South  Carolina,  to  its  faculty. 

East  and  West  Brazil  Mission. — The  East  and  West  Brazil  Missions  both 
report  an  encouraging  year  in  their  work  along  many  lines.  Both  of  them,  how- 
ever, are  very  short  of  the  requisite  force  for  the  satisfactory  prosecution  of  the 
work.  The  Lavras  Industrial  School  continues  to  furnish  hopeful  candidates  for 
the  ministry,  who  enter  the  Theological  Seminary  at  Campinas,  and  who  will 
enter  upon  their  work  with  a  degree  of  energy  and  self-reliance  which  the 
industrial  feature  in  their  training  tends  to  develop.  The  State  government  is 
showing  its  appreciation  of  the  work  of  the  school  by  maintaining  a  number 
of  scholarships  in  it,  this  being  done  with  full  knowledge  on  the  part  of  the 
State  authorities  that  the  teaching  of  the  Bible  from  the  Protestant  point  of 
view  is  an  indispensable  feature  of  the  required  curriculum.  The  East  Brazil 
Mission  reports  400  communicants,  of  whom  10  were  added  during  the  year. 

CHINA. 

The  Political  Situation. — The  young  Republic  of  China  has  been  having  an 
almost  desperate  experience  in  the  effort  to  get  itself  under  way  as  the  recog- 
nized governing  authority  in  the  land.  The  revolutionary  armies  left  over  after 
the  civil  war  and  compelled  to  go  without  their  pay  have  proven  a  very  dis- 
turbing factor  in  the  situation.  Tke  association  of  the  old  imperial  government 
in  the  minds  of  the  people  to  so  large  an  extent  with  the  idea  of  taxes,  and  the 
springing  up  everyhere  of  the  idea  that  the  introduction  of  the  new  Republic 
would  mean  the  remission  of  all  taxes,  has  proven  a  source  of  great  confusion 
and  difficulty.  This  difficult  situation  seems  to  have  been  handled  so  far  by  the 
new  native  leaders  with  a  calmness  and  resourcefulness  and  courage  that  should 
command  the  sympathy  of  the  whole  world,  and  which  tends  to  inspire  confidence 
in  the  ultimate  outcome.  The  present  Chief  Magistrate,  Yuan  Shi  Kai,  while 
not  a  professing  Christian,  was  yet  the  protector  of  Christians  during  the  Boxer 
rebellion,  and  since  his  inauguration  as  President  he  has  in  numerous  addresses 
expressed  his  friendly  attitude  toward  the  Christian  movement  and  his  profound 
appreciation  of  the  missionaries  and  their  work.  Two  members  of  the  present 
Cabinet  are  pronounced  Christians.  One  of  them,  Mr.  C.  T.  Wang,  on  account 
of  his  ability  and  his  earnestness  in  the  Christian  life,  was  selected  by  Dr.  John  R. 
Mott  as  Secretary  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian  Association  in  Shanghai.  In 
that  work  he  is  represented  as  having  been  remarkably  successful  as  a  soul-win- 
ner. After  much  solicitation,  he  accepted  the  Cabinet  position  only  provisionally, 
expecting  to  return  to  the  Association  work  in  the  near   future,   because  he 


APPENDIX  11 

regards  that  work  as  of  greater  importance  than  anything  he  might  do  in  the 
field  of  politics  as  a  permanent  life  work. 

Attitude  of  Higher  Classes. — What  these  things  indicate  is  a  complete  change 
in  the  attitude  of  the  higher  classes  toward  the  Christian  movement.  The 
general  situation  is  thus  forcibly  described  by  Dr.  P.  F.  Price,  our  Professor 
of  Theology  at  Nanking: 

"Changing  China  is  bringing  unexampled  opportunities  for  missionary  work. 
There  is  access  to  more  places,  more  classes  of  people,  and  in  a  larger  degree, 
than  ever  before.  Reports  come  from  Hsuchoufu  of  great  evangelistic  meetings, 
resulting  in  the  enrollment  of  over  a  thousand  enquirers.  In  Nanking  plans  are 
being  made  for  preaching  the  gospel  four  hours  daily  in  a  hall  holding  1,500 
people.  In  Kiangyin  there  is  soon  to  be  an  evangelistic  campaign,  the  place 
of  preaching  being  a  large  temple  offered  by  the  gentry  of  the  city  to  the  mission- 
aries for  this  purpose.  Rev.  Palmer  DuBose  reports  that  he  and  his  Chinese 
helper  preached  for  two  hours  to  a  large  congregation  in  the  Temple  of  Hell, 
a:  Soochow,  amid  scenes  where  the  tortures  of  the  damned  were  depicted  in 
imagery,  and  that  this  was  done  at  the  request  of  the  leading  men  of  the  place. 
These  examples  are  characteristic  of  the  preaching  opportunities  that  are  lying 
around  us  on  every  hand,  which  each  station  is  planning  to  meet  as  far  as  the 
present  force  of  missionaries  and  native  workers  can  meet  them." 

Medical  Work. — With  reference  to  the  medical  work.  Dr.  Price  tells  us  that 
the  increasing  confidence  in  our  missionary  physicians  is  laying  on  them  an  in- 
creasing burden  of  work.  During  the  year  past  Drs.  Venable  and  Hutcheson, 
ar  Kashing,  treated  23,000  patients  and  performed  over  600  major  operations. 
The  average  attendance  at  Dr.  Woods'  dispensary  at  Tsing-Kiang-Pu  is  from 
two  hundred  to  three  hundred  patients.  The  impossibility  of  supplying  the  de- 
mand for  missionary  doctors  makes  it  all  the  more  necessary  that  the  new 
medical  college  connected  with  the  University  of  Nanking,  of  which  our  Dr. 
Shields  is  one  of  the  leading  professors,  should  be  so  equipped  and  supported 
that  an  adequate  force  of  native  Christian  physicians  may  be  speedily  supplied. 

Co-operation. — A  Theological  Seminary  in  this  country  in  which  the  Pres- 
byterian, the  Methodist  and  the  Christian  Churches  co-operated  would  be  con- 
sidered entirely  impracticable.  And  yet  this  is  what  we  have  at  Nanking, 
China.  The  arrangement  provides  for  common  instruction  in  such  branches  of 
study  as  are  common  to  all  forms  of  theological  education.  In  addition  to  this, 
special  courses  are  provided  by  which  the  students  of  any  particular  Church  are 
instructed  by  their  own  approved  professors  in  the  faith  and  polity  of  that 
Church.  Our  missions  are  also  taking  part  in  seven  other  union  institutions, 
namely :  the  Medical  College  at  Nanking ;  the  Woman's  Training  School  at 
Nanking;  The  Christian  Intelligencer  newspaper;  and  the  School  for  Mission- 
aries' Children  at  Shanghai;  the  Presbyterian  College  and  the  Union  Girls' 
School  at  Hangchow.  These  union  movements  are  in  response, to  an  irresistible 
demand  of  the  native  Church,  and  in  recognition  of  the  absolute  necessity  of 
making  the  present  inadequate  force  and  equipment  go  as  far  as  possible  toward 
meeting  the  emergency  of  the  hour.  They  are  less  difficult  also  than  such  co- 
operative movements  would  be  found  at  home  because  the  missionaries  have 
constantly  before  their  eyes  that  which  impresses  them  with  the  insignificance  of 


78  APPENDIX 

their  denominational  differences  as  compared  with  the  difference  between  Chris- 
tianity and  heathenism. 

To  quote  again  from  Dr.  Price: 

"This  is  undoubtedly  the  day  of  opportunity  in  China.  So  marvelous  is  it 
that  we  sometimes  wonder  if  such  a  condition  of  things  can  last.  But  that  fact 
that  confronts  us  is  that  an  opportunity  that  was  undreamed  of  a  few  y^ars  ago 
is  before  us  now — an  opportunity  that  calls  for  the  utmost  faith  and  courage 
and  consecrated  effort  on  the  part  of  the  whole  Church  of  Christ  in  order  that 
it  may  not  be  forever  lost." 

Two  thousand  nine  hundred  and  thirty-seven  communicants  are  reported  in  the 
churches  of  the  two  China  missions,  of  whom  238  were  added  during  the  year. 

CUBA. 

Our  little  band  of  workers  in  Cuba,  whose  serious  losses  last  year  through 
failure  of  health  on  the  part  of  several  of  the  missionaries,  we  have  been  unable 
for  financial  reasons  to  repair,  have  struggled  bravely  on  under  their  difficulties. 
The  mission  is  greatly  encouraged  at  the  present  time  by  the  coming  of  Dr.  Juan 
Orts  Gonzales,  a  converted  Catholic  priest  and  a  distinguished  scholar  and 
author,  to  help  in  their  work  during  the  coming  year.  Dr.  Gonzales  has  just 
completed  the  regular  three  years'  course  at  Union  Theological  Seminary,  in 
Virginia.  Another  young  Cuban  minister  of  brilliant  gifts  and  attainments  ex- 
pects to  graduate  at  the  Seminary  this  spring,  and  it  is  greatly  hoped  that  he  may 
feel  called  to  give  his  life  to  the  redemption  of  his  native  island.  The  demand 
i":  still  urgent  for  three  ordained  men  for  this  field  to  take  the  places  of  the  three 
who  have  been  compelled  to  retire  on  account  of  sickness,  and  for  whom  the 
support  of  those  who  have  retired  would  be  in  some  measure  available.  Another 
pressing  need  is  the  better  equipment  of  our  Boys'  School  at  Cardenas,  where 
Mr.  Sims  has  been  doing  such  splendid  work  under  such  discouraging  conditions, 
in  order  that  the  time  may  be  hastened  when  the  supply  of  trained  native  work- 
ers will  render  the  Cuban  Church  independent  of  foreign  help.  We  have  507 
communicants  in  this  field,  of  whom  25  were  added  during  the  year. 

JAPAN. 

It  is  perhaps  true  that  Japan  is  the  most  difficult  of  all  our  mission  fields. 
It  is  also  true  that  the  reason  why  it  is  so  is  that  the  Church  lost  its  best  oppor- 
tunity in  Japan  by  failing  to  throw  a  sufficiently  strong  force  in  the  field  in  the 
beginning,  and  by  allowing  public  education  under  anti-Christian  auspices  to 
go  before  instead  of  following  after  the  work  of  evangelization.  But  so  far 
from  this  being  considered  a  reason  for  neglecting  Japan  at  the  present  time, 
the  very  reverse  is  true.  That  missionary  work  should  be  pushed  only  along 
the  lines  of  least  resistance,  and  that  the  more  difficult  fields  should  wait  until 
the  less  difficult  ones  have  been  evangelized  is  a  policy  that  might  be  character- 
ized as  a  species  of  missionary  poltroonery.  The  work  in  Japan  should  be 
earnestly  pressed  because  it  is  difficult  now  and  is  likely  to  become  increasingly  so 
the  longer  it  is  neglected.  It  should  also  be  pressed  because  of  the  over-mas- 
tering influence  of  Japan  among  the  other  countries  of  the  Far  East. 

Government  Attitude. — Twenty-five  years  ago  Count  Ito,  then  the  leading 
statesman  of  Japan,  made  the  statement,  "I  regard  religion  as  quite  unnecessary 


APPENDIX  79 

to  a  nation's  life."    At  the  recent  dedication  of  a  Y.  M.  C.  A.  building  in  Kobe, 
Count  Okuma,  the  present  leader  of  the  Liberal  party,  spoke  as  follows : 

"Any  nation  that  neglects  the  spiritual  in  the  education  of  its  citizens, 
though  it  may  flourish  for  a  time,  must  eventually  decay.  The  origin  of  modern 
civilization  is  to  be  found  in  the  teaching  of  the  Sage  of  Judea,  by  whom  alone 
the  moral  dynamic  is  supplied." 

Conference  of  Religions. — This  complete  reversal  by  the  governing  classes 
of  their  attitude  toward  Christianity  was  signalized  by  the  calling  of  the  famous 
"Conference  of  Religions,"  held  in  Tokyo  in  the  month  of  February.  The  call- 
ing of  this  conference  and  the  invitation  to  the  Christian  Churches  to  participate 
in  it  was  also  noteworthy  as  being  the  first  public  abandonment  of  the  position 
tacitly  held  by  the  Government  previously,  that  Christians  could  not  be  recog- 
nized equally  with  the  adherents  of  other  religions  as  loyal  subjects  and  workers 
for  their  country's  good. 

Another  illustration  of  this  changed  attitude,  on  a  lower  level,  but  of  a 
more  picturesque  character,  was  given  when  a  policeman  in  the  city  of  Kobe 
recently  appeared  at  a  religious  service  held  by  one  of  our  evangelists,  dragging 
an  incorrigible  street  urchin  by  the  ear.  Placing  the  boy  immediately  in  front 
of  the  preacher,  he  said  to  him  with  emphasis:  "Noiv,  you  listen!  Do  you 
hear?" 

Distribution  of  Forces. — Another  notable  conference  was  that  of  the  various 
mission  bodies  at  work  in  Japan,  at  which  the  subject  of  the  distribution  of 
forces  for  the  most  effective  work  under  present  conditions  was  discussed.  At 
this  conference  attention  was  called  to  the  fact  that  the  policy  hitherto  so  largely 
adopted  of  expending  almost  the  entire  energy  and  resources  of  the  missionary 
body  in  the  large  cities  was  in  need  of  radical  modification.  It  was  discovered 
that  at  the  present  time  practically  the  whole  village  population  of  Japan, 
amounting  to  over  35,000,000,  is  untouched  by  missionary  effort.  This  vast 
population  lies  as  virgin  soil  awaiting  the  seed  of  the  kingdom.  If  a  large  evan- 
gelistic force  could  at  once  be  thrown  into  this  great  field  there  is  reason  to 
believe  that  a  church  might  be  speedily  gathered  and  built  up  which  would  be 
more  amenable  to  leadership  and  more  zealous  and  effective  as  an  evangelizing 
agency  than  is  the  case  with  the  churches  as  they  are  at  the  present  time,  so 
largely  dominated  by  the  spirit  of  the  literary  and  military  classes. 

Christian  Education. — The  survey  of  this  great  field  reveals  at  once  the 
absolute  necessity  of  bringing  into  the  field  at  the  earliest  possible  date  an 
adequate  force  of  trained  native  preachers  and  leaders,  by  whom  alone  the  task 
of  evangelization  can  ever  be  accomplished.  It  is  a  vain  hope  that  these  can  ever 
be  secured  from  the  schools  and  colleges  and  universities  supported  and  man- 
aged by  the  State.  The  atmosphere  of  materialism  and  rationalism  and  irreligion 
that  pervades  all  of  these  schools  unfits  them  utterly  as  training  schools  for 
Christian  workers.  There  is  an  imperative  need  for  one  great  Christian  univer- 
sity, with  such  an  endowment  as  would  enable  it  to  offer  every  advantage  at 
present  offered  by  the  Imperial  University  at  Tokyo.  As  feeders  to  this  uni- 
versity, each  mission  working  in  Japan  should  endeavor  to  develop  one  Christian 
college  of  the  first  grade. 

Theological  Education. — Twenty-eight  students  have  been  in  attendance  at 


8o  APPENDIX 

the  Kobe  Theological  School,  of  whom  five  will  graduate  this  year.  The  Japan- 
ese Christian  layman  who  gave  $250  for  the  new  dormitory  building  is  himself 
taking  a  special  course  in  the  school  to  prepare  himself  for  more  efficient  service 
in  the  Church.  We  regard  this  work  as  second  in  importance  to  none  that  any 
Christian  mission  is  doing  in  this  field.  A  fierce  battle  is  being  fought  in  Japan 
for  the  maintenance  of  the  fundamental  truths  of  Christianity,  and  the  pre- 
vention of  the  establishment  of  a  so-called  church,  made  up  of  a  composite  of 
Christian  eithics  only,  with  other  elements  taken  from  Buddhism,  Shintoism 
and  Scientific  Rationalism.  Victory  for  the  truth  in  this  battle,  we  believe,  is 
dependent  in  no  small  degree  on  the  work  of  our  Kobe  Theological  School. 

The  statistics  of  the  work  of  our  mission  in  Japan  do  not  represent  the 
whole  result  of  the  work,  on  account  of  the  difficulty  of  separating  what  are 
strictly  mission  statistics  from  those  of  the  organized  native  Church.  The  report 
of  the  mission  gives  2,490  as  the  number  of  Church  members  in  the  field  covered 
by  our  mission,  of  whom  312  were  added  during  the  past  year. 

KOREA. 

The  Conspiracy  Case. — The  missionary  situation  in  Korea  has  been  grave 
for  several  months  past  on  account  of  circumstances  connected  with  the  famous 
Conspiracy  Case.  A  full  account  of  this  case  was  published  in  the  January 
number  of  The  Missionary  Survey,  and  the  main  facts  connected  with  it  are 
familiar  to  the  public.  One  hundred  and  twenty-one  Koreans,  nearly  all  of 
them  Christians  and  most  of  them  members  of  the  Presbyterian  Church,  were 
arrested  on  the  charge  of  conspiring  against  the  life  of  Count  Terauchi,  the 
present  Governor-General  of  Korea.  At  the  first  trial  106  of  these  were  con- 
victed and  sentenced  to  terms  of  imprisonment  ranging  from  four  to  ten  years. 
At  the  second  trial,  on  appeal,  all  of  them  were  acquitted  except  six.  Among 
these  six,  however,  who  were  convicted  and  sentenced  to  six  years'  imprison- 
ment was  Baron  Yun  Chi  Ho,  President  of  a  college  belonging  to  the  Methodist 
mission  and  long  recognized  as  the  leading  Christian  in  Korea.  The  case  is 
subject  to  another  appeal,  and  will  come  up  for  final  adjudication  as  soon  as 
the  necessary  legal  formalities  can  be  complied  with.  The  incidents  which  gave 
rise  to  this  trial  occurred  in  the  northern  part  of  Korea,  in  the  field  occupied  by 
our  brethren  in  the  Presbyterian  Church,  U.  S.  A.,  and  of  the  Methodist  Church. 
Our  own  missionaries  have  had  no  direct  connection  with  it,  and  have  exercised 
a  most  commendable  caution  in  giving  expression  to  their  views  and  opinions 
on  the  subject.  They  have,  of  course,  sympathized  deeply  with  their  brethren  in 
so  far  as  they  may  have  believed  them  to  be  in  any  way  the  objects  of  persecu- 
tion. It  should  not  seem  strange  to  us  that  this  Korean  Church  which  has  ex- 
hibited so  many  apostolic  features  in  its  history  to  the  present  time  should  have 
had  this  apostolic  experience  also,  in  order  that  their  faith,  having  been  tried  in 
the  fire,  might  be  found  unto  praise  and  honor  and  glory  at  the  appearing  of 
Jesus  Christ.  An  indirect  result  of  this  agitation  has  been  the  emigration  of 
large  numbers  of  Korean  Christians  to  China.  It  has  been  pleasing  to  learn 
that  these  emigrants  have  received  a  friendly  welcome  from  their  Chinese  neigh- 
bors. It  may  also  be  hoped  that  some  of  the  Korean  Christians,  who  can  speak 
Chinese  fluently,  taking  over  into  China  the  same  evangelistic  zeal  which  they 


APPENDIX  8i 

have  manifested  at  home,  may  prove  effective  missionaries  to  the  Chinese  and 
helpers  in  the  stupendous  evangelistic  task  of  the  Chinese  Church. 

Compute  Occupation. — The  outstanding  event  in  the  history  of  the  Korean 
mission  for  the  year  has  been  the  .sending  out  of  the  full  complement  of  mis- 
sionaries required,  according  to  the  estimate  furnished  by  the  mission,  for  the 
complete  evangelization  of  our  field  in  this  generation.  Nine  men  and  eleven 
women  were  sent  out  during  the  year  as  the  result  of  the  special  Korean  campaign 
authorized  by  the  General  Assembly  at  Louisville,  the  support,  outfit  and  travel- 
ing expenses  of  all  these  having  been  provided  by  the  special  fund  raised  by  the 
young  men  whom  the  General  Assembly  charged  with  that  responsibility. 

Sunday  School  Work. — An  interesting  feature  of  the  work  has  been  the 
development  of  Sunday  School  work  in  connection  with  all  our  stations  under 
the  leadership  of  Mr.  M.  L.  Swinehart,  who  was  also  recently  chosen  as  Presi- 
dent of  the  Sunday  School  Association  for  the  whole  of  Korea. 

The  statistical  report  gives  7,173  as  the  number  of  communicants  in  the 
churches  connected  with  our  mission,  of  whom  1,379  were  received  during  the 
present  year. 

MEXICO. 

The  hope  of  the  restoration  of  peace  and  quiet  in  Mexico  seems  to  be 
indefinitely  postponed.  The  troubles  in  Mexico  are  the  result  of  causes  which 
will  continue  to  produce  such  troubles  as  long  as  they  exist.  The  Mexican 
people  have  acquired  a  sufficient  degree  of  intelligence  to  make  them  perma- 
nently discontented  with  the  system  of  landlordism  and  peonage  under  which 
they  have  lived  for  so  long.  A  further  increase  of  intelligence  is  necessary  in 
order  that  they  may  learn  that  these  evils  can  be  permanently  remedied  only 
by  peaceful  and  legal  means.  Our  missionary  work  contributes  directly  to  this 
end  in  its  educational  features,  and  the  preaching  of  a  pure  gospel  everywhere 
among  them  is  the  only  hope  for  bringing  to  an  end  the  reign  of  violence  and 
the  restoration  of  permanent  peace  and  prosperity. 

We  have  been  especially  fortunate  in  that  no  serious  disturbances  have  ot 
curred  at  any  of  the  stations  occupied  by  our  mission,  except  an  attack  by 
brigands  upon  the  town  of  Tula,  where  Mr.  Shelby  is  located,  which  was  quickly 
repulsed  by  the  Government  forces.  While  unwise  talk  of  American  interven- 
tion has  in  many  places  inflamed  the  anti-American  spirit,  our  missionaries  seem 
to  have  made  friends  of  the  people  they  live  among,  and  so  far  as  we  know  in 
no  place  have  they  been  the  object  of  any  hostile  demonstration. 

The  school  at  Matamoros  has  had  a  very  successful  year.  The  Graybill 
Memorial  School  has  gained  wide  favor  throughout  northern  Mexico,  and  could 
have  at  once  a  large  patronage  that  would  make  it  entirely  self-supporting  if  only 
decent  buildings  could  be  erected  and  the  mechanical  and  agricultural  depart- 
ments properly  equipped. 

The  Mission  reports  1,021  communicants  connected  with  the  churches  under 
its  care,  of  whom  120  were  added  during  the  year. 

REINFORCEMENTS. 

Forty-one  new  missionaries  were  added  to  the  roll  during  the  year. 
Rev.  and  Mrs.  A.  C.  McKinnon,  Rev.  and  Mrs.  H.  M.  Washburn,  Rev.  and 
Mrs.  J.  C.  McQueen,  Rev.  and  Mrs.  J.  W.  Allen,  Rev.  and  Mrs.  N.  G.    Stevens. 


82  APPENDIX 

Rev.  T.  C.  Vinson,  Rev.  Plumer  Smith,  Rev.  S.  H.  Wilds  and  Mr.  W.  L.  Hill- 
house  were  sent  to  Africa. 

Miss  R.  Caroline  Kilgore  and  Miss  Edmonia  R.  Martin  were  sent  to  Brazil. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  J.  M.  Wilson,  Rev.  and  Mrs.  Thos.  L.  Harnsberger  and  Miss 
Lillian  C.  Wells  were  sent  to  China. 

Rev.  and  Mrs.  C.  H.  Pratt,  Rev.  and  Mrs.  P.  B.  Hill,  Rev.  and  Mrs.  J.  K. 
Parker,  Rev.  John  McEachern,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  F.  M.  Eversole,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  R.  S.

Linton,  Miss  Ada  McMurphy,  Miss  L.  O.  Lathrop,  Miss  Mary  L.  Dodson,  Miss 
Lavalette  Dupuy  and  Miss  Anna  L.  Greer  were  sent  to  Korea. 

As  instructed  by  the  Assembly,  for  each  new  missionary  sent  to  the  field 
the  Committee  secured  a  pledge  of  $i,ooo  per  annum  for  support  in  the  field 
and  cash  contributions  to  the  full  amount  required  for  outfit  and  traveling 
expenses.  It  was  understood  in  every  case  that  these  contributions  were  to  be 
over  and  above  the  previous  gifts  of  the  donors,  and  also  over  and  above  what 
they  would  otherwise  have  given.  The  utmost  caution  was  observed  that  no  in- 
creased financial  obligations  should  be  incurred  in  sending  out  these  reinforce- 
ments for  which  full  provision  had  not  been  made.

THE   FORWARD    MOVEMENT. 

Ten  years  ago  the  General  Assembly  formally  inaugurated  the  method  of 
raising  funds  for  its  Foreign  Mission  work  known  as  "The  Forward  Movement," 
the  essential  feature  of  which  is  the  assumption  by  separate  churches,  societies 
0-:  individuals  of  a  definite  responsibility  for  a  definite  part  of  the  work. 

The  Assembly  of  1903  expressed  "its  profound  satisfaction  with  the  work 
known  as  'The  Forward  Movement,' "  and  declared :  "The  work  has  hardly 
a  parallel  in  the  modern  Church  for  aggressiveness,  wisdom,  economy  and  suc- 
cess." 

The  Assembly  of  1904  stated  that  "through  the  instrumentality  of  the  For- 
ward Movement  large  gains  were  made  in  the  contributions  from  churches  and 
individuals,"  and  declared :  "The  Forward  Movement  has  the  endorsement  of 
the  Assembly." 

The  Assembly  of  1905  said :  "The  Assembly  records  again  its  cordial  ap- 
proval of  the  Forward  Movement." 

The  Assembly  of  1906  voted  "that  the  Forward  Movement  receive  the  con- 


APPENDIX  83 

tinucd  and  cordial  endorsement  of  the  Assembly,  and  that  the  policy  of  the 
Executive  Committee  in  using  young  men  under  appointment  as  missionaries  to 
aid  in  this  movement  be  endorsed  by  the  Assembly." 

The  Assembly  of  1907  adopted  "The  Missionary  Platform,"  in  which  it  ac- 
cepted for  the  whole  Church,  as  its  definite  missionary  responsibility,  the  evan- 
gelization of  25,000,000  of  people  inhabiting  territory  occupied  by  our  missions 
in  seven  different  foreign  countries,  and  declared :  "In  the  effort  to  carry  out 
our  missionary  policy  in  individual  churches,  the  Assembly  hereby  recommends 
the  plan  already  in  operation  in  our  Forward  Movement  work,  which  has  here- 
tofore been  approved  by  the  Assembly,  viz :  the  plan  of  a  subscription  by  every 
member  of  the  Church  of  a  definite  amount  to  be  paid  during  the  year,  either 
for  the  general  work  or  for  some  special  part  of  it,  such  as  the  salary  of  a 
missionary,  or  a  share  in  the  work  of  a  station,  as  an  expression  of  his  love 
of  souls  and  loyalty  to  Jesus  Christ." 

The  Assembly  of  1908  noted  with  gratification  that  "the  work  of  the  For- 
ward Movement  has  been  vigorously  prosecuted  during  the  past  year." 

The  Assembly  of  1909  marked  with  pleasure  and  approval  "the  steady  pro- 
gress of  the  Forward  Movement."  It  declared  also :  "As  a  rule,  the  churches 
which  have  made  the  largest  per  capita  gifts  to  world-wide  evangelization  have 
been  most  liberal  in  the  support  of  the  work  in  the  home  land." 

So  far  was  the  Assembly  from  intending  that  its  new  financial  plan,  adopted 
in  1910,  should  supplant  or  interfere  with  the  extension  of  the  Forward  Move- 
ment that  in  191 1  it  expressly  recommended  "that  the  Foreign  Mission  Committee 
use  every  possible  means  to  increase  both  the  number  of  churches  and  indi 
viduals  who  shall  take  part  in  this  work  of  the  Forward  Movement."  It 
declared  further :  "The  plans  of  the  Executive  Committee  in  carrying  on  the 
work  of  the  Forward  Movement  during  the  past  year  are  approved,  and  the 
Committee  is  instructed  to  continue  to  press  the  work  along  this  line  in  the 
effort  to  realize  at  the  earliest  possible  date  the  ideals  set  forth  in  our  Mis- 
sionary Platform." 

The  Assembly  of  1912  states  "that  the  present  Every-Member-Canvass-Plan 
in  no  way  necessitates  or  contemplates  withdrawal  from  the  Forward  Movemen: 
for  Foreign  Missions." 

The  Systematic  Beneficence  Committee  has  repeatedly  stated  that  the  new 
system  was  not  intended  to  undo  the  results  or  discourage  the  extension  of  the 
Forward  Movement,  but  to  build  on  it  and  co-operate  with  it. 

In  view  of  the  widespread  impression  revealed  in  our  correspondence  that 
the  new  financial  plans  of  the  Assembly  are  incompatible  with  the  Forward 
Movement,  and  in  view  of  the  serious  and  increasing  financial  losses  entailed 
upon  our  work  by  this  erroneous  impression,  we  deem  it  absolutely  necessary 
that  the  Assembly  reaffirm  in  unmistakable  terms  its  oft-repeated  endorsement 
of  the  Forward  Movement,  and  commend  it  afresh  to  the  individuals,  societies 
and  congregations  of  our  Church. 

FINANCES. 

It  is  a  remarkable  fact  that  the  year  which  saw  the  debt  paid  saw  also  the 
sending  out  of  the  largest  number  of  new  missionaries  ever  sent  to  the  foreign 
field  by  our  Church  in  one  year. 


84  APPENDIX 

The  sending  of  41  new  missionaries  in  face  of  the  heavy  debt  would,  under 
ordinary  circumstances,  have  been  unjustifiable.  But  the  circumstances  were  not 
ordinary.  In  sending  the  20  missionaries  to  Korea  the  Committee  was  but  car- 
rying out  the  instructions  given  it  by  the  General  Assembly. 

The  sending  of  14  new  missionaries  to  Africa  was  necessary,  unless  we 
were  to  lose  a  large  part  of  the  fruits  of  the  toils  and  gifts  expended  during  the 
last  twenty  years  on  our  Congo  Mission.  See  statement  under  "Africa"  in  earlier 
part  of  this  report. 

The  seven  missionaries  sent  to  Brazil  and  China  inolved  a  less  outlay  than 
failing  to  send  them  would  have  cost  us. 

The  total  increase  of  expense  represented  by  these  41  missionaries  was 
given,  or  reliably  pledged  in  advance,  as  additional  to  and  not  working  any  re- 
duction of  previous  contributions  to  this  cause. 

An  investigation  of  the  actual  cost  of  supporting  a  missionary,  including  all 
necessary  incidental  expenses,  has  resulted  in  the  Committee's  fixing  $1,200  as 
the  amount  necessary  to  be  raised  for  the  annual  support  of  each  missionary 
hereafter  to  be  sent  out.  Before  he  leaves  this  country  this  amount,  and  also 
his  expense  of  travel  and  equipment,  must  be  secured  by  gifts  or  reliable 
pledges  over  and  above  all  previous  contributions. 

The  amount  required  for  the  support  of  missionaries  already  on  the  foreign 
field  remains  $1,000. 

Our  total  receipts  for  the  year  were  $631,069.  This  is  $129,656  more  than  the 
receipts  of  the  previous  year.  The  actual  cost  of  this  year's  work  has  proven 
considerably  less  than  the  Treasury  Department's  original  estimate.  It  is  with 
profound  gratitude  to  God  and  warm  appreciation  of  the  liberality  of  our  be- 
loved Church  that  the  Committee  finds  itself  able  to  report  that  it  begins  the 
new  fiscal  year  with  all  debts  and  dues  paid  up  to  April  i,  and  a  balance  in 
hand  of  $7,557- 

THE    ANNUITY     (SPECIAL    DONATION)     FUND. 

Referring  to  the  action  of  the  last  Assembly  in  regard  to  the  Special  Dona- 
tion Fund,  the  Committee  begs  leave  to  state  the  following  facts  in  regard  to 
the  fund : 

1.  This  fund  is  not  a  trust  fund  in  any  sense,  which  is  not  true  of  any 
other  contribution  to  the  cause  of  Foreign  Missions.  Our  contract  with  the 
donors  states  specifically  that  when  received  by  us  it  becomes  the  absolute 
property  of  the  Executive  Committee,  the  donor  having  no  further  claim  on  it 
or  direction  of  it,  except  for  the  semi-annual  payment  of  the  interest  as  it  ac- 
crues. The  Committee's  obligation  to  pay  this  interest  does  not  diflfer  from  its 
obligation  to  pay  the  salaries  promised  the  missionaries  or  any  other  part  of 
the  expense  of  conducting  the  work. 

2.  The  purpose  of  this  fund,  as  stated  in  the  literature  sent  to  donors  for 
information,  is  to  provide  permanent  equipment  for  our  missions.  When  re- 
ceived, it  is  at  once  expended  in  helping  to  pay  the  building  appropriations  for 
the  different  missions  for  the  current  year.  Inasmuch  as  the  amount  received 
on  this  fund  has  never  in  any  single  year  been  sufficient  to  pay  all  the  building 
appropriations  for  that  year,  it  has  not  been  deemed  necessary  to  designate  any 
specific  donation  on  this  fund  to  any  specific  building  in  any  of  the  missions. 


APPENDIX  85 

Inasmuch  as  the  Committee  pays  interest  on  the  fund,  it  has  not  been  deemed 
proper  to  designate  it  for  any  building  operations  except  those  provided  for  in 
the  appropriations  for  the  year.  The  interest  paid  on  the  fund  stands  over 
against  the  rent  that  would  be  required  to  pay  for  the  buildings  or  for  much 
less  satisfactory  native  buildings. 

If  all  the  annuity  checks  sent  out  to  the  donors  were  retained  by  them, 
this  would  still  be  a  very  profitable  arrangement  for  the  Committee.  But  as  a 
matter  of  fact,  more  than  half  of  these  checks  are  returned  to  the  Cfommittee  by 
the  donors  as  contributions,  the  donors  only  holding  their  claim  on  the  annui- 
ties as  a  guarantee  of  funds  which  they  might  need,  but  which  they  very  fre- 
quently return  to  us  inasmuch  as  the  need  does  not  occur. 

3.  One  chief  advantage  of  the  fund  is  that  by  means  of  it  many  donations 
are  received  and  go  immediately  into  the  work  which  would  otherwise  not  be 
received,  except  in  the  fi^rm  of  legacies  after  the  death  of  the  donors,  and  in 
this  way  much  trouble  and  loss  is  avoided  which  would  otherwise  be  incurred 
by  the  contest  of  wills  and  the  payment  of  attorneys'  and  administrators'  fees. 

4.  At  the  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee  on  April  8,  1913,  action  was 
taken  that  in  future  all  contributions  to  this  fund  be  deposited  in  the  Special 
Account  in  bank,  and  be  paid  out  only  for  equipment  in  the  various  missions  as 
the  Committee  may  from  time  to  time  make  appropriations,  and  that  hereafter 
the  fund  be  known  as  the  "Annuity  Fund." 

EDUCATIONAL  DEPARTMENT. 

At  its  June  meeting  the  Committee  elected  Rev.  H.  F.  Williams,  D.  D., 
Educational  Secretary.  Four  months  of  the  year  were  given  by  him,  with  the 
consent  of  the  Committee,  to  the  promotion  of  the  Campaign  of  Evangelism  and 
Stewardship. 

Three  hundred  and  two  pastors  have  engaged  to  use  the  monthly  Foreign 
Mission  programs,  a  gain  of  one  hundred  and  two  for  the  year. 

The  mission  text-books  used  during  the  year  have  been  "China's  New  Day" 
and  "In  Four  Continents."  As  stated  under  another  head,  185  study  classes 
report  an  enrollment  of  2,525. 

The  literature  appropriate  to  the  observance  of  the  Livingstone  Centenary 
in  March  was  distributed  from  this  office  in  large  quantities.  Following  the 
Livingstone  Centenary  of  March  19,  a  Missionary  Exercise  was  sent  to  2,700 
Sunday  Schools.  It  is  proposed  to  introduce  into  as  many  as  possible  of  our 
Sunday  Schools  a  brief  foreign  missionary  service  one  Sunday  a  month. 

MISSIONARY  LITERATURE. 

The  Missionary  Survey,  through  the  energetic  efforts  of  the  Publication 
Committee,  has  reached  a  circulation  of  about  24,000. 

In  addition  to  the  monthly  topics  and  programs  for  Senior  and  Junior 
Missionary  Societies  gotten  out  by  Miss  McNeilly,  and  the  monthly  programs 
for  pastors  by  Dr.  Williams,  and  the  special  leaflets  issued  in  connection  with 
ihe  Debt  Campaign  and  the  Livingstone  Centenary  celebration,  the  following 
leaflets  of  permanent  value  have  been  published  by  oUr  Committee  during  the 
past  year. 

By  Dr.  Williams :  Six  booklets  describing  seven  of  our  missions  and  en- 
titled "North  of  the  Yangtze,"  "In  the  Mikado's  Empire,"  "In  the  Hermit  Land," 


86  APPENDIX 

"In  Cuba  and  Mexico,"  "In  South  America,"  "In  the  Congo" ;  also  smaller 
leaflets  on  "Our  Mid-China  Mission,"  "Our  Cuba  Mission,"  and  "Our  Part  in 
China's  New  Day." 

By  Dr.  Chester:  "The  Work  of  Our  Women  for  Foreign  Missions,"  "Se- 
lection and  Appointment  of  Missionaries,"  "Our  World  Field,"  and  "The  Re- 
demption of  Mexico." 

By  Dr.  Smith :  "The  Reflex  Influence  of  Foreign  Missions,"  "Our  Mis- 
sionary Task,"  "Our  Work  Abroad,"  and  "A  Business  Man's  Confession." 

By  Miss  Ella  Graham :  "Glimpses  of  Child-life  in  Korea" ;  by  Dr.  L.  S. 
Morgan,  "How  Little  Chu  Went  to  See  the  Doctor";  by  Rev.  H.  A.  Johnston, 
"How  a  Governor  in  Siam  Found  Christ" ;  by  R.  M.  Wilson,  "Medical  Report, 
Kwangju  Hospital";  by  Miss  S.  O'H.  Dickson,  "Story  of  Placetas,  Cuba";  by 
Mrs.  T.  J.  Arnold,  "She  Hath  Not  Done  What  She  Could." 

Our  own  "Missionary  Map  of  the  World"  was  gotten  out  by  the  Committee 
December,  1912.  This  map  is  30x40  inches,  on  cloth,  and  shows  the  location  of 
our  own  stations,  also  the  religious  divisions  of  the  world,  besides  statistical 
reports  of  various  denominations.  The  price  is  $1,  postpaid,  and  is  on  sale  in 
the  office.    One  hundred  and  seventy-five  of  these  maps  have  been  sold. 

The  bulletin,  "Field  Reports,"  is  sent  quarterly  to  churches  and  individuals 
which  have  assumed  the  support  of  definite  parts  of  the  foreign  work. 

woman's  work. 

The  record  of  the  work  of  our  women  which,  from  this  office,  has  been  in 
charge  of  Miss  Margaret  McNeilly,  shows  that  they  have  still  maintained 
their  leadership  in  interest  and  enthusiasm.  Their  zeal  and  liberality  have  been 
one  of  the  most  potent  factors  in  the  payment  of  the  debt. 

The  contributions  of  the  women  through  their  organized  societies  for  the 
year  were  %yy,72^.  This  by  no  means  represents  all  that  the  women  gave  to 
the  cause,  since  it  is  well  known  that  a  considerable  proportion  of  the  money 
coming  into  our  treasury  through  the  ordinary  church  collections  is  given  by 
them. 

We  have  on  our  rolls  at  present  1,900  women's  missionary  societies  and  800 
children's  societies,  which  are  included  in  the  work  of  our  Women's  Depart- 
ment. Constant  eff'ort  is  made  to  develop  leaders  for  young  people  and  chil- 
dren's work.  In  this  connection  we  make  grateful  mention  of  the  work  of 
Miss  Isabel  Arnold,  of  Elkins,  W.  Va.,  who  has  been  giving  a  large  part  of  her 
time  to  unremunerated  labors  in  holding  missionary  institutes  and  visiting 
Presbyterials  and  churches  in  the  interest  of  the  more  thorough  organization  of 
the  work  and  the  enlistment  of  a  larger  number  of  consecrated  workers. 

The  monthly  programs  continue  in  large  demand — 185  mission  study  classes, 
with  an  enrollment  of  2,525,  have  reported.  These  are  strictly  study  classes. 
Many  have  reported  using  programs  founded  on  the  various  study  books,  but 
are  not  in  the  regular  organized  classes.  The  Presbyterials,  by  very  generally 
adopting  the  plan  of  holding  their  meetings  consecutively  in  each  Synod,  have 
greatly  reduced  the  Committee's  difficulty  and  expense  in  supplying  them  witli 
missionary  speakers. 

This  being  the  initial  year  of  our  Woman's  Work  under  a  superintendent, 
there  has  been  of  necessity  some  confusion  as  to   reports,  changes  and  read- 


APPENDIX  87 

Justments.  Through  this  new  organization  gerat  help  has  been  rendered  in  the 
payment  of  the  debt,  the  scope  of  the  women's  work  has  been  enlarged,  new 
Synodicals  and  Presbyterials  added,  much  excellent  literature  circulated,  and 
greater  unity  and  perfection  of  organization  secured.  Its  capable  leadership 
encourages  us  to  look  for  yet  larger  things  from  the  Woman's  Auxiliary.  Our 
pastors  are  urged  to  co-operate  with  it  in  every  wise  way. 

The  Executive  Committee  believes  that  the  future  of  its  work  is  seriously 
threatened  by  the  impression  that  has  gone  abroad  that  the  Assembly's  Financial 
Plan  contemplates  a  brand-new  financial  deal,  without  regard  to  what  th^. 
societies  have  been  giving,  or  giving  to,  in  the  past.  In  view  of  the  losses  en- 
tailed upon  our  work  by  this  erroneous  impression,  we  request  the  Assembly  to 
state  in  unmistakable  terms  that  its  new  Financial  Plan  neither  necessitates  nor 
contemplates  the  diversion  to  other  causes  of  funds  heretofore  given  by  the 
societies  and  churches  to  Foreign  Missions,  but  rather  the  enlistment  in  behalf 
of  other  causes  of  our  people's  heretofore  unused  means  and  energies. 

Without  some  such  authoritative  statement  from  our  Assembly,  there  will 
be  an  increasing  weakening  and  pulling  apart  of  the  financial  foundation  on 
which  its  Foreign  Mission  work  has  been  built  up  through  years  of  toil  and 
prayer  and  sacrifice. 

NEEDS  OF  THE  FIELDS. 

Reinforcements  are  called  for  by  the  missions  as  follows : 

The  African  Mission  needs  at  once  two  physicians  and  two  trained  nurses. 

The  North  Brazil  Mission  needs  two  additional  ordained  men. 

The  East  Brazil  Mission  asks  for  two  additional  ordained  men  and  one 
female  teacher. 

The  West  Brazil  Mission  asks  for  three  ordained  men. 

The  Cuban  Mission  asks  for  three  ordained  men  to  supply  the  vacancies 
occurring  in  that  field  on  account  of  failing  health. 

The  two  China  Missions  appointed  a  Conference  Committee  on  Reinforce- 
ments and  Equipment,  which  has  sent  an  estimate  of  needed  reinforcements 
concerning  which  they  make  the  statement  that  "these  estimates  are  based  on 
what  we  hope  the  Church  can  give  us  during  this  period  of  five  years,  and  do 
not,  in  our  judgment,  cover  all  our  needs  or  enable  us  fully  to  occupy  the 
field."  Inasmuch  as  these  estimated  needs  for  five  years  are  below  the  actual 
needs,  and  inasmuch  as  in  the  estimates  there  is  the  improbable  assumption 
that  the  male  reinforcements  asked  for  will  go  out  single,  we  consider  that  the 
actual  numbers  asked  for  are  within  the  limit  of  the  immediate  needs  of  the 
missions. 

In  this  statement  the  Mid-China  Mission  asks  for  26  additional  missionaries, 
14  of  these  being  men  and  12  women. 

The  N.  Kiangsu  Mission  asks  for  9  men  and  12  women.  The  distribution 
of  these  reinforcements  as  to  forms  of  service  is  as  follows :  Male  evangelists, 
12;  female  evangelists,  16;  male  teachers  6;  female  teachers,  3;  medical  men,  5; 
trained  nurses,  5. 

The  Japan  Mission  asks  for  nine  ordained  men  and  four  single  women; 
these  reinforcements  being  not  what  they  actually  need,  but  what  they  think 
they  should  reasonably  expect  to  receive. 


8H  APPENDIX 

The  Mexico  Mission  asks  for  two  more  ordained  men  and  one  female 
evangelist. 

The  Korean  Mission  has  now  its  full  number  of  required  missionaries,  with 
the  exception  of  one  doctor  for  Mokpo  and  one  male  teacher  for  Soon  Chun. 

The  total  number  of  reinforcements  asked  for  by  the  missions  is  77,  of 
whom  not  less  than  40  should  be  sent,  if  possible,  during  the  present  year. 

Funds  Needed. — The  Committee  needs  and  could  wisely  use  now  for  equip- 
ping and  reinforcing  the  missions  and  carrying  on  their  work  the  one  million 
dollars  a  year  called  for  by  the  Assembly  in  our  missionary  platform.  But  at 
the  request  of  the  Assembly's  Committee  of  Systematic  Beneficence  we  present 
the  following  statement  of  the  minimum  need  to  enable  us  to  carry  on  the  work 
as  at  present  organized  and  provide  for  its  normal  development  during  the 
coming  year : 

Regular  appropriations  to  the  missions $374,000 

Estimate  of  additional,  incidental,  extraordinary,  and  emergency  appro- 
priations       20,000 

Support  of  forty  additional  missionaries 48,000 

Outfit  and  travel  of  same 16,000 

Material  equipment 75.000 

Home  administration   (office  salaries  all  kinds,  rents,  traveling  expense, 

literature,   etc. )    40,000 


$573,000 
Egbert  W.  Smith,  Executive  Secretary. 


IV.     REPORT  ON  HOME  MISSIONS. 
(abstract.) 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions  herewith  presents  its  Annual 
Report  showing  the  progress  and  prospect  of  the  work  entrusted  to  its  care. 

The  signal  favor  of  God  was  never  more  manifest  than  is  evidenced  by  the 
results  of  this  year's  work.  The  total  contributions  of  the  previous  year  were 
$125,787.17,  whilst  the  receipts  of  the  present  reached  $154,210.77,  showing  a 
gratifying  increase  of  $28,423.60.  More  than  425  missionaries,  not  counting 
their  wives,  but  including  mission  teachers,  were  employed  and  supported  in 
whole  or  in  part,  ministering  to  over  600  churches  and  mission  stations. 

In  1912  the  Assembly  elected  one  "Executive  Secretary"  for  each  Executive 
Committee,  and  authorized  the  Executive  Committees  to  elect  "other  Secretaries" 
necessary  for  the  proper  conduct  of  the  work.  Carrying  out  the  instructions  of 
the  Assembly,  the  Committee  unanimously  elected  Rev.  Homer  McMillan,  D.  D., 
and  assigned  him  to  Field  Work,  Literature  and  Publicity,  and  cheerfully  records 
its  high  appreciation  of  his  efficiency  and  fidelity. 

The  scope  of  the  Assembly's  Home  Missions  has  been  so  enlarged  by  the 
creation  of  new  departments  to  meet  the  needs  as  they  arise  that  it  is  doubtful 
whether  the  Church  has  any  proper  conception  of  the  magnitude  of  our  opera- 
tions, much  less  the  character  of  the  work  now  carried  on  by  the  Executive 
Committee.     The  following  is  perhaps  the  best  classification  which  we  can  fur- 


APPENDIX  89 

nish;  and  yet  in  the  treatment  of  each  it  will  readily  be  seen  that  they  gradually 
meet  and  blend  together : 

I,  Evangelistic ;  2,  Sustentation ;  3,  Mountains ;  4,  Frontier ;  5,  Colored 
Evangelization;  6,  Foreign-Speaking;  7,  Mission  Schools;  8,  Church  Erection. 

The  evangelistic  purpose  necessarily  pervades  all  departments  of  our  work, 
but  we  must  confine  ourselves  to  the  more  specific  phase  at  this  time.  Of  the  87 
Presbyteries  of  our  Assembly,  exactly  40  received  assistance  in  some  form 
during  the  year  from  the  Executive  Committee ;  and  of  these  40,  at  least  25 
were  assisted  in  the  support  of  Prcsbyterial  or  Pastor  Evangelists. 

An  Evangelistic  Campaign. — The  Executive  Committee  earnestly  sought  to 
arouse  the  spirit  of  evangelism  throughout  the  whole  Church,  and  addressed 
communications  to  Home  Mission  Committees  and  all  of  the  Presbyteries,  asking 
them  to  inaugurate  an  evangelistic  campaign  and  undertake  to  hold  at  least  one 
special  meeting  in  each  church  during  the  ecclesiastical  year. 

Special. — Rev.  J.  E.  Thacker  has  continued  his  work  as  Special  Evangelist. 
His  labors  have  been  marvelously  blessed,  as  will  be  seen  by  the  following  report : 

"Sermons  and  addresses  delivered,  407 ;  7,008  church  members  have  expressed 
their  written  and  avowed  purpose  to  live  more  for  God's  glory  and  the  good 
of  His  Church ;  339  decided  to  unite  with  the  church  of  their  community  by  let- 
ter, and  1,088  by  profession  of  faith  in  Christ.  Five  young  men  have  expressed 
their  purpose  to  enter  the  Ministry. 

"Total  statistics  since  beginning  the  work,  October  i,  1909:  1,568  sermons 
and  addresses,  29,083  Reconsecrations,  5,813  Professions  of  Faith,  1,640  to  unite 
with  churches  by  letter,  23  to  enter  the  Ministry." 

Rev.  W.  W.  Orr,  of  the  Associate  Reformed  Presbyterian  Church,  was 
engaged  for  as  much  time  as  he  could  give ;  and  he  held  meetings  in  Spartan- 
burg, S.  C,  Bessemer,  N.  C,  and  in  Atlanta,  Ga.  Time  spent  in  meetings,  seven 
weeks  ;  sermons,  105  ;  professions,  about  600. 

Prison  Work. — In  addition  to  these  evangelistic  efforts,  the  Committee  has 
engaged  the  services  of  Mr.  George  W.  Crabtree,  recommended  by  various 
Presbyteries  in  North  Carolina  and  Virginia,  for  prison  evangelist.  His  work 
consists  in  visiting  prisoners  and  holding  services  for  them,  addressing  churches, 
interesting  and  enlisting  a  corps  of  workers  for  these  unfortunates.  This  is  an 
entirely  new  departure,  somewhat  of  an  experiment;  and  as  he  has  been  serving 
but  four  months,  we  cannot  at  this  time  give  any  forecast  of  results  and  pos- 
sibilities. 

As  the  parent  nurtures  and  supports  his  offspring  till  the  child  is  able  to 
care  for  itself,  so  the  Church  must  maintain  each  new  and  feeble  organization 
until  it  in  turn  becomes  a  center  for  propagating  our  faith  into  still  more  remote 
territory  of  the  regions  beyond.  There  are  weak  Presbyteries  as  well  as  weak 
churches ;  and  the  Executive  Committee,  like  a  fostering  parent,  places  its  arms 
of  support  around  such  as  make  appeal  for  sustentation  funds. 

Frequently  parents  who  nurture  children  grow  feeble  themselves  by  reason 
of  age  and  infirmity,  and  become  a  loving  charge,  needing  the  support  of  the 
child,  now  in  the  vigor  and  strength  of  manhood.  So  there  are  noble  churches 
which  have  given  their  life  and  strength  to  others  and  must,  like  age  leaning 


90  APPENDIX 

on  a  staff,  receive  the  support  of  the  children  to  whom  they  have  given  birth. 
Especially  is  this  true  of  the  country  church  and  the  deserted  village. 

For  destitution,  perhaps  our  country  furnishes  no  parallel  equal  to  that 
great  Appalachian  section  which  contains  at  least  three  millions  of  neglected 
people.  It  is  a  problem  of  isolation.  There  is  destitution  in  the  slums  of  the 
cities,  but  they  are  still  in  reach  of  gospel  privileges,  and  multitudes  of  them 
have  heard  the  message  and  rejected  the  light.  In  great  sections  of  the  moun- 
tains many  have  heard  only  a  caricature  of  the  gospel,  and  some  are  so  destitute 
that  they  grow  to  manhood  without  hearing  a  gospel  sermon. 

Dr.  Guerrant. — The  noble  work  undertaken  and  carried  on  by  Dr.  E.  O. 
Guerrant  for  15  years  by  faith,  challenged  the  Church  to  enlarged  effort.  By 
the  authority  and  encouragement  of  the  Assembly,  the  Executive  Committee  has 
joined  hands  with  Dr.  Guerrant,  and  undertakes  to  build  on  his  foundation 
something  more  substantial  and  far-reaching.  While  assisting  the  Presbyteries 
in  their  evangelistic  work  among  these  people,  the  Executive  Committee  has 
given  its  larger  support  to  the  Mission  Schools,  laying  foundations  in  the  youth 
for  future  leadership.  During  the  year  we  have  maintained  in  whole  or  in  part 
42  mountain  schools,  with  129  teachers  and  about  3,250  scholars.  Dr.  Guerrant 
has  given  his  time  and  strength  to  the  limit;  and  Rev.  W.  E.  Hudson  has  been 
in  charge  as  Superintendent.  From  his  annual  report  the  following  items  will 
give  some  estimate  of  the  work  for  the  year : 

"Dr.  Guerrant  turned  over  to  our  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions 
17  schools  and  mission  stations,  and  an  orphanage;  34  buildings  in  all;  and  our 
Church  had  operated  24  schools  previous  to  this  time.  A  promising  school,  with 
two  teachers  and  70  scholars,  has  been  started  near  Hartford,  Tenn.,  in  the 
midst  of  a  needy  community.  Our  worker  at  Noctor,  Ky.,  secured  the  names 
of  twenty-one  persons  who  were  sufficiently  interested  to  warrant  the  organiza- 
tion of  a  church. 

"Through  Dr.  E.  O.  Guerrant's  efforts,  a  wing  has  been  added  to  the  class- 
room building  at  Highland  College,  Guerrant,  Ky.,  and  through  the  liberality  of 
the  Highland  Presbyterian  Church  of  Louisville,  Ky.,  whose  sympathy  he 
enlisted,  a  hospital  has  been  built  at  this  place. 

"The  Superintendent  has  raised  approximately  $1,095  for  m.ountain  work 
and  other  causes,  employed  40  new  workers,  preached  129  sermons,  witnessed 
61  professions  of  faith,  made  29  addresses  on  Mountain  Work,  and  held  10 
Conferences  under  the  auspices  of  the  Million  and  a  Half  Campaign  Com- 
mittee." 

Mining  and  Lumber  Camps. — In  addition  to  this  view  of  the  subject,  there 
are  mining  and  lumber  camps  in  the  mountain  section  rich  in  minerals  and 
timber;  and  these  industries  are  attracting  additional  and  alien  populations, 
creating  a  more  perplexing  problem  than  the  isolation  of  the  mountaineers.  No 
Presbytery  can  properly  and  persistently  finance  this  mountain  work.  It  must 
be  sustained  by  the  whole  Church,  through  its  central  agency  of  the  Executive 
Committee. 

Until  quite  recently  the  chief  and  almost  sole  task  of  Home  Missions  was 
pioneer  work.  It  consisted  almost  exclusively  in  camping  on  the  trail  of  our 
people  in  their  Western  migrations,  as  the  frontier  expanded  to  accommodate 
these  movements.    Now  the  frontier  returns  upon  itself,  and  every  town  has  its 


APPENDIX  yi 

frontier  problem.  Rural  communities  are  committing  suicide  and  disintegrating, 
so  that  the  frontier  shifts  from  circumference  back  to  center.  The  expanding 
character  of  the  work,  like  a  kaleidoscope,  reveals  new  combinations  and  scenes 
which  so  fill  the  whole  horizon  of  the  Church's  vision  as  to  divert  attention 
from  the  great  West,  once  synonymous  with  frontier. 

The  West. — Still  the  time  has  not  come  when  we  can  allow  the  Church  to 
lose  sight  of  the  great  and  growing  needs  of  the  West.  Populations  are  still 
crowding  into  Arkansas,  Oklahoma,  Texas,  and  New  Mexico.  The  Church 
can  never  afford  to  allow  her  migrating  children  to  drift  beyond  her  reach  and 
care. 

Texas  is  not  only  an  empire  in  point  of  area,  but  is  destined  to  exceed  in 
numbers  the  present  population  of  the  United  States.  If  Texas  were  as  densely 
populated  as  Rhode  Island,  it  would  contain  135,487,800  people.  James  Bryce, 
the  British  Ambassador,  asserts  that  by  the  close  of  the  present  century  North 
America  will  contain  one-half  of  the  civilized  population  of  the  globe. 

Arkansas,  Oklahoma,  and  Texas,  according  to  the  recent  census,  contain 
about  eight  million  people,  exactly  one-fourth  of  the  entire  South.  Leaving 
out  the  colored  people  of  the  South,  these  three  States  contain  nearly  one-half 
of  its  white  people.  Yet  among  all  these  great  masses  of  the  Southwest  our 
Church  has  only  40,000  communicants,  being  one  to  every  200  of  the  population. 
Our  Church,  however,  is  growing  more  rapidly  there  than  in  any  other  section 
of  our  territory;  but  we  are  deficient  in  men  and  means  to  press  our  advantage. 
On  the  other  hand,  danger  lurks  in  these  growing  centers  of  population,  if 
left  longer  unevangelized.  During  the  nineteenth  century,  church  membership 
grew  faster  than  population.  The  first  census  of  the  twentieth  century  reveals 
an  even  break,  population  and  church  membership  each  gaining  during  this 
first  decade  exactly  21  per  cent.  If  the  Church  falls  behind  in  the  race  with 
population,  what  will  be  the  consequences  to  the  country  and  to  the  kingdom 
itself?    If  we  lose  the  West,  we  lose  the  United  States. 

The  enlargement  of  the  sphere  of  Home  Missions  to  include  Colored 
Evangelization  placed  an  additional  burden  on  the  Executive  Committee,  but 
we  are  pleased  to  report  that  the  arrangement  is  working  harmoniously.  Not- 
withstanding the  fact  that  this  cause  no  longer  receives  the  special  collection 
once  accorded  it,  we  have  not  allowed  any  part  of  the  work  to  suffer.  Instead, 
we  have  been  able  to  increase  slightly  the  appropriations  to  some  phases  of  this 
needy  work. 

Superintendent. — In  obedience  to  instructions  of  the  Assembly,  the  Com- 
mittee made  Rev.  J.  G.  Snedecor,  LL.  D.,  Superintendent  of  Colored  Work  and 
placed  him  in  charge  of  Stillman  Institute.  During  the  months  of  June,  July, 
August,  and  September  it  has  requested  him  to  visit  the  various  fields  and 
missions  and  report  the  progress  and  prospect  of  each. 

Stillman. — Stillman  Institute  has  had  three  professors  (Revs.  J.  H.  Davis 
and  N.  W.  Kuykendall,  and  the  President)  during  the  year,  which  is  scarcely 
adequate  to  the  needs,  considering  the  fact  that  it  has  sixty-five  students  in 
varying  states  of  preparation,  each  requiring  special  coaching,  as  well  as  instruc- 
tion. At  least  one  additional  man  is  needed  to  give  part  of  his  time  to  superin- 
tending the  farm  work,  so  as  to  use  the  labors  of  the  students  to  best  advantage. 


92  APPENDIX 

There  will  be  three  Presbyterian  graduates  this  year,  and  it  is  to  be  remem- 
bered that  this  means  the  establishment  of  new  centers  of  work  and  the  building 
of  several  new  churches.  Thus  the  Colored  Work  adds  its  voice  to  the  general 
chorus  that  calls  for  more  money  for  Home  Missions. 

The  equipment  in  the  way  of  the  school  room  and  dormitories  is  almost  a 
menace  to  health,  as  well  as  unsuitable  for  best  work.  The  Executive  Committee 
has  purchased  a  tract  of  250  acres  of  land  near  Tuscaloosa,  at  a  cost  of  over 
$8,000,  paying  $2,500  cash  and  giving  notes  for  the  balance.  As  soon  as  prac- 
ticable we  expect  to  sell  the  present  plant  and  build  modern  structures  better 
suited  to  the  work  of  training  our  colored  ministers. 

Parochial  Schools.— In  the  field  of  general  education  of  the  negroes  our 
Church  has  expended  little,  but  some  of  the  more  energetic  colored  pastors 
have  developed  fine  parochial  schools,  as  at  Texarkana,  Ark.,  Selma,  Ala., 
Milton,  N.  C,  Thomasville,  Ga.,  Florence,  S.  C,  North  Wilkesboro,  N.  C, 
Abbeville,  S.  C,  and  others.    This  is  a  fruitful  field  of  missionary  effort. 

The  Colored  Ministry. — It  has  required  persistent  and  tedious  labor  to  get 
detailed  and  reliable  information  in  regard  to  the  colored  ministers  and  their 
respective  charges.  We  are  at  last  able  to  give  a  tabulated  statement,  covering 
the  entire  field,  which  will  furnish  information  as  to  what  has  been  accom- 
plished by  the  labors  of  the  past  and  reveal  the  foundation  upon  which  we  may 
hope  to  build  in  the  future. 

White  Workers. — Rev.  John  Little  has  continued  his  magnificent  work  at 
Louisville,  Ky.,  assisted  by  Rev.  W.  H.  Sheppard,  D.  D.,  formerly  missionary 
to  the  Congo.  An  equipment  valued  at  $20,000  has  been  secured,  where  Sabbath 
Schools  are  taught  by  consecrated  white  people,  and  where  public  worship  and 
the  preaching  of  the  gospel  are  faithfully  maintained,  resulting  in  29  additions 
to  the  Church  in  the  past  few  months.  Institutional  features  are  maintained 
in  connection  with  the  work. 

Similar  work  is  undertaken,  on  a  smaller  scale,  in  Atlanta,  Ga.,  under  the 
supervision  of  Rev.  G.  R.  Buford,  missionary  pastor  of  the  Central  Presbyterian 
Church,  and  in  Richmond,  Va.,  in  care  of  Rev.  M.  M.  Gray,  of  Union  Theo- 
logical Seminary.  Thomasville,  Ga.,  Memphis,  Tenn.,  and  other  places  conduct 
colored  Sabbath  Schools  with  white  teachers. 

Has  not  the  time  come  for  the  Church  to  give  us  a  more  sympathetic  hear- 
ing and  substantial  support  of  the  cause  of  ministering  to  these  lowly  and  de- 
pendent people,  placed  by  divine  providence  at  our  very  door? 

Notwithstanding  the  annual  contribution  of  a  million  new  inhabitants  to 
our  population  by  the  nations  of  the  earth,  it  was  not  until  within  recent  years 
that  this  incoming  tide  turned  Southward.  A  new  situation  now  confronts  our 
Church.  Foreigners  are  pressing  into  our  midst  by  individuals,  by  families,  and 
by  colonies.  The  demand  for  the  enlargement  of  our  operations  by  adding  a 
department  for  these  foreign-speaking  people  was  sudden,  but  we  immediately 
adjusted  ourselves  to  the  situation,  and  missions  sprang  up  almost  spontaneously 
in  various  Synods. 

Mexicans. — The  first  in  point  of  time  and  the  most  prosperous  is  the  Texas- 
Mexican  work.  From  an  humble  origin  it  has  grown  to  a  vigorous  Presbytery, 
which  coincides  with  the  Synod  of  Texas.     It  now  has  22  Mexican  churches, 


APPENDIX  93 

1,200  communicants,  served  by  four  American  missionaries  and  six  native  Mex- 
ican pastors.  The  additions  annually  exceed  the  average  number  added  to 
Presbyteries  of  the  same  size. 

By  far  the  most  important  development  has  been  the  establishment  of  an 
Industrial  School  at  Kingsville,  Texas,  for  the  young.  Rev.  J.  W.  Skinner, 
D.  D.,  has  been  placed  in  charge  and  is  demonstrating  that  he  is  a  workman 
approved  of  God.  Mrs.  King  has  donated  700  acres  of  land,  and  part  of  it  has 
already  been  brought  into  cultivation.  Inexpensive  buildings  have  been  erected 
at  a  cost  of  several  thousand  dollars,  and  the  school  has  been  conducted  with 
49  Mexican  youth  in  attendance  for  the  first  year. 

Kansas  City. — Rev.  H.  Sartorio,  Italian  pastor,  having  resigned,  the  services 
of  Rev.  Thomas  De  Pamphilis  were  secured,  beginning  November  22,  1912. 
He  is  an  active,  energetic  Christian,  popular  with  his  people  and  a  man  of 
considerable  executive  ability.  He  preaches,  conducts  prayer  meeting  and  visits 
among  the  people  systematically  in  the  evenings. 

In  addition  to  the  pastor  in  charge,  two  consecrated  women  are  employed 
as  teachers  and  helpers,  whilst  the  Sabbath  School  superintendent  and  teachers 
give  their  services  gladly.  The  church  has  now  a  roll  of  thirty  communicants ; 
the  Sabbath  morning  services  are  attended  by  an  average  of  thirty,  whilst  fifty 
is  the  average  for  the  evening  service. 

The  industrial  and  institutional  features  of  the  work  consist  of  kindergart- 
ens, drills,  classes  in  domestic  science,  etc.  Bible  classes  are  also  conducted  for 
women  in  the  afternoon ;  and  there  are  lectures  with  music  for  boys  and  men, 
and  gymnasium  exercises  one  evening  in  the  week. 

The  receipts,  from  all  sources,  and  expenditures  average  about  $200.00  per 
month,  and  the  Executive  Committee  in  Atlanta  makes  an  appropriation  of 
$600.00  per  year. 

Louisiana. — During  the  past  year  nine  persons  in  all  have  been  regularly 
engaged  in  work  among  those  speaking  other  than  the  English  tongue  in  New 
Orleans  Presbytery.  Of  these,  eight  have  given  their  full  time  to  the 
work.  Two  of  them,  the  pastors  of  the  First  St.  German  Church  and  Second 
German  Church,  Revs.  Louis  Voss  and  Theo.  F.  Hahn,  respectively,  are  sup- 
ported by  their  churches,  and  the  German  work  is  in  no  way  connected  with 
the  Home  Mission  work  of  the  Presbytery,  except  in  so  far  as  the  Home  Mis- 
sion Committee  has  engaged  these  brethren  for  other  occasional  enterprises. 

Rev.  P.  Ph.  Briol  has  been  employed  for  half  his  time  for  work  among 
the  French-speaking  people  west  of  New  Orleans.  Petitions  are  before  the 
Presbytery  for  the  organization  of  churches  at  Paradis  and  Des  Allemands. 

Rev.  M.  R.  Paradis  has  been  in  charge  of  the  organized  churches  at  Guey- 
dan,  Abbeville,  and  New  Iberia,  in  the  midst  of  a  very  large  French  population. 

Rev.  Pierre  Danis  has  had  charge  of  the  church  at  Centerville  and  of  a 
mission  point  at  Calumet,  in  the  midst  of  a  great  French  population. 

Rev.  W.  H.  Leith  has  had  charge  of  the  Thibodaux  Church,  in  Lafourche 
Parish,  and  of  mission  points  at  Dinner  and  Bowie. 

Rev.  Christopher  Russo  has  been  in  charge  of  the  Italian  work,  with  an 
organized  church  in  New  Orleans,  and  mission  points  in  Aubrey  Street,  New 
Orleans,   and   Lutcher,   in    St.  James    Parish.     Mrs.   Mary   Cosentino   has   been 


94  APPENDIX 

employed  as  a  visitor  and  helper  in  the  Italian  work  by  the  Woman's  Home 
Missionary  Union  of  New  Orleans  Presbytery. 

Rev.  Andrew  Csontos  has  had  charge  of  the  Hungarian  Church  and  was 
this  year  ordained  by  the  Presbytery  to  the  full  ministry  of  the  work.  The 
church  building  suffered  greatly  from  a  severe  storm  about  the  beginning  of 
the  year,  but  was  quickly  restored. 

Miss  Anna  W.  Creeby  has  been  in  charge,  for  her  full  time,  of  the  Chinese 
Mission  of  the  Presbytery,  which  is  conducted  in  the  well-fitted  and  valuable 
property  of  the  Presbytery  in  Liberty  Street. 

In  addition  to  the  above,  some  work  is  conducted  among  the  Syrians  and 
the  Spanish  by  the  First  Church  and  Rev.  Theo.  F.  Hahn,  respectively,  but  at 
no  cost  to  the  Presbytery  or  Assembly. 

Italians. — The  Italian  Mission  at  Birmingham  is  so  named  because  that  is 
the  predominant  nationality,  but  there  are  as  many  as  12  nationalties  repre- 
sented in  our  mission,  schools  there,  and  41  nationalities  are  enumerated  in  the 
Birmingham  District.  Rev.  Angelo  Mastrotto,  a  Waldensian,  is  in  charge  of  the 
work.  He  preaches  in  the  chapel,  teaches  the  adult  class  in  night  school,  and 
visits  among  the  people.  Sabbath  Schools  are  maintained  at  different  places, 
while  day  schools,  night  schools,  kindergarten,  domestic  science,  etc.,  are  taught 
by  five  competent  and  devoted  women,  who  have  the  missionary  spirit.  One 
hundred  and  fifty  attend  the  various  schools,  of  whom  103  are  gathered  into 
our  Sabbath  Schools  for  these  foreign  peoples. 

Cubans. — The  Cuban  Mission  at  Tampa,  Fla.,  has  been  conducted  in  a 
rented  store,  which  answers  the  purpose  of  chapel.  Sabbath  School,  prayer 
meeting,  and  Christian  Endeavor  room.  Rev.  P.  H.  Hensley  is  in  charge,  who 
speaks  Spanish  fluently,  and  is  well  adapted  to  the  work.  He  is  assisted  by  a 
native  pastor.  The  Sabbath  School  at  times  reaches  150,  and  all  the  services 
are  well  attended. 

The  Executive  Committee  has  recently  purchased  a  corner  lot  on  the  car 
line,  at  a  cost  of  $2,000,  and  proposes  to  erect  a  temporary  chapel ;  and  as  soon 
a?  the  Church  furnishes  some  equipment  funds,  to  build  an  Institutional 
Church  suited  to  the  needs  of  these  foreigners  in  our  midst. 

Bohemians. — The  Bohemian  Mission  is  situated  in  Prince  George  County, 
near  Petersburg,  Va.  The  Presbyterian  Church  was  organized  and  ministered  to 
by  Rev.  Frank  Uherka,  but  he  being  called  to  Pennsylvania,  it  has  secured  the 
services  of  Rev.  J.  A.  Kohout.  The  manse  has  hitherto  been  used  for  worship, 
but  they  have  recently  completed  a  brick  church.  The  church  has  a  membership 
of  sixty-three,  three  being  added  during  the  year  by  profession,  and  nine  by 
certificate,  while  the  Sabbath  School  numbers  about  fifty. 

Hungarians. — ^The  Hungarian  Mission  in  Virginia,  under  Rev.  John  Ujlaky, 
is  quite  flourishing.  He  preaches  in  both  Hungarian  and  Slavic  at  Stonega, 
Osaka,  Roda,  Pardee,  Wise,  Tom's  Creek,  and  other  coal  operations  in  Wise 
County,  Va.  He  has  built  and  furnished  houses  of  worship,  with  the  aid  of  the 
coal  companies,  who  look  upon  his  work  very  favorably,  at  the  following  places : 
Osaka,  Roda,  and  Pardee,  and  is  now  trying  to  build  at  Tom's  Creek.  Where 
he  has  no  suitable  houses  in  which  to  assemble  his  people,  he  preaches  in  their 
homes.     He  has  gathered  together  more  than  a  hundred  members,  but  has  not

as  yet  organized  them  into  a  church.  A  list  is  kept  at  Norton,  the  center  of  his 
operations,  where  he  lives  and  where  we  have  an  organized  church  and  session. 

Germans  in  Georgia. — A  German  colony  in  Georgia  has  been  organized  into 
a  church  by  Athens  Presbytery,  and  your  Executive  Committee  assisted  them 
in  securing  a  church  building,  with  the  kind  co-operation  of  the  Independent 
Presbyterian  Church  of  Savannah,  which  has  never  yet  failed  to  respond  to  any 
appeal  made  by  the  Secretary  of  Home  Missions  to  their  generosity. 

The  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States  has  been  carrying  on  Mission 
work  among  the  Indians  for  fifty  years.  For  the  first  twenty-five  years  it  was 
regarded  as  a  Foreign  Mission  work,  and  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Foreign 
Mission  Committee  of  our  Church,  but  in  1889  it  was  transferred  to  the  Com- 
mittee of  Home  Missions,  and  ever  since  that  time  the  work  has  been  regarded 
as  Home  Missions. 

At  present  we  have  eighteen  Indian  churches,  served  by  fourteen  ministers, 
five  being  white  ministers  and  nine  Choctaw  preachers.  The  membership  of 
these  churches  is  600,  but  not  all  of  them  are  Indians.  In  a  few  cases  a  church 
will  have  on  the  roll  a  small  number  of  white  people,  living  in  the  community. 
The  Sabbath  Schools  contain  about  600  to  700  pupils,  and  the  contributi'^ns  from 
these  churches  last  year,  for  all  purposes,  amounted  to  nearly  $2,000.  The 
constituency  reached  by  our  Church  is  perhaps  3,000  Indian  people.

In  obedience  to  the  instructions  of  the  Assembly,  the  Executive  Committee 
has  made  repeated  and  urgent  appeals  for  funds  to  establish  a  Jewish  Mission. 
These  appeals  have  been  published  in  our  religious  papers,  in  The  Missionary 
Survey,  and  sent  out  as  circular  letters,  etc.  In  addition  to  our  appeals,  we 
have  invited  special  friends  of  the  Jewish  Mission  work  to  make  appeals  which 
we  have  most  heartily  endorsed.  We  regret  to  report  to  the  Assembly  that 
there  has  been  practically  no  response — only  about  $100 — and  no  mission  of 
this  character  can  be  undertaken  and  carried  on  without  an  expenditure  annually 
of  at  least  from  $3,000  to  $5,000. 

The  department  of  Mission  Schools  would  loom  large,  if  we  could  group 


96  APPENDIX 

and  give  account  of  the  work  under  this  appropriate  division.  Already  wc 
have  reported  on  them  in  giving  account  of  the  Mountains,  Colored  Work,  and 
Foreigners;  and  it  remains  to  speak  of  the  Mission  Schools  among  the  Indians. 
For  many  years  we  have  been  carrying  on  Mission  Schools  among  these  Indians ; 
but  the  coming  of  statehood,  with  the  public  school  system,  has  relieved  us  of 
the  necessity  for  continuing  these  primary  schools. 

Goodland. — Goodland  has  developed  into  an  Indian  Orphanage,  as  well  as  a 
boarding  school.  The  Indians  themselves  have  donated  nearly  loo  acres  of 
land  around  the  institution,  and  we  have  erected  a  girls'  dormitory  costing 
$5,000,  and  a  boys'  dormitory  costing  $2,500.  There  are  perhaps  150  students  in 
attendance,  most  of  them  being  boarders. 

Rev.  Silas  Bacon,  manager  of  Goodland,  and  President  Morrison,  of  Durant, 
have  contracts  by  which  each  Indian  child  is  allowed  on  his  expenses  his  share 
of  his  tribal  funds,  an  arrangement  in  common  with  Christian,  private,  or 
national  schools.  The  Supreme  Court  has  decided  that  these  Indians  are  en- 
titled to  their  tribal  funds  in  this  way.  As  such  funds  do  not  entirely  pay 
expenses,  any  Indian  able  to  supplement  the  amount  does  so. 

Oklahoma  Presbyterian  College. — By  far  the  most  important  institution  of 
a  missionary  character  for  training  a  future  leadership  is  the  Oklahoma  Pres- 
byterian College  for  Women,  located  at  Durant,  Okla.,  which  occupies  a  mag- 
nificent campus  of  thirty  acres,  the  gift  of  friends,  costing  $27,000. 

The  College  Building  cost  about  $80,000,  and  the  entire  plant  is  easily  worth 
$125,000.  Unfortunately  the  construction  company  failed  before  completing 
the  contract,  entailing  a  loss  of  $15,000  to  $20,000  on  the  building,  which  was 
subject  to  mechanics'  liens,  as  the  same  could  not  be  collected  from  the  con- 
tractors. The  Board  of  Trustees  entered  suit  against  the  Security  Company 
and  obtained  judgment  for  $15,000,  but  the  case  has  been  appealed,  and  it  is 
impossible  to  say  when  the  matter  will  be  settled.  In  the  meantime  the  Exec- 
utive Committee  has  undertaken  to  assist  the  institution  by  bonding  it  for 
$25,000  in  order  to  take  care  of  the  indebtedness. 

The  College  is  not  only  handicapped  by  this  debt,  but  it  is  greatly  embarrassed 
for  lack  of  dormitory  equipment.  The  school  is  full  to  its  utmost  capacity,  and 
President  Morrison  has  the  confidence  and  patronage  of  the  community.  It  is 
more  than  self-supporting,  and  when  once  its  embarrassments  are  relieved,  it 
will  enter  upon  a  new  era  of  prosperity  and  career  of  usefulness. 

The  crisis  in  the  development  of  a  Mission  Church  is  the  erection  of  a 
house  of  worship.  No  church  can  prosper,  and  most  cannot  even  live,  without 
a  church  home.  There  is  never  a  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee  without 
appeals  of  some  kind  for  assistance  in  building  new  churches. 

In  order  to  meet  the  demands  upon  us,  the  Executive  Committee  makes 
donations  from  time  to  time,  according  to  the  needs  of  individual  churches,  and 
according  to  the  state  of  our  treasury. 

Loan  Funds. — The  Committee  has  a  small  Loan  Fund  amounting  now  to 
about  $5,500,  named  in  honor  of  W.  A.  Moore,  whose  kind  legacy  created  it 
twenty  years  ago,  and  which  has  assisted  seventy-four  churches  in  building. 
It  has  also  a  Manse  Fund  of  about  the  same  amovmt,  which  has  assisted  twenty 
churches  in  securing  homes  for  ministers. 


APPENDIX  97 

S emi-C entennial  Building  Fund. — Two  years  ago  the  Assembly  undertook  to 
raise  a  Semi-Centennial  Building  and  Loan  Fund  of  $100,000 ;  and  the  Com- 
mittee issued  splendid  literature  and  made  a  vigorous  campaign,  but  owing  to 
many  causes  only  about  $10,000  have  become  available.  Many  of  our  people  are 
interested,  and  there  are  yet  gifts  awaiting  us  for  this  purpose,  if  the  Assembly 
will  continue  its  endorsement  and  encouragement  of  the  scheme. 

Equipment. — The  one  supreme  and  imperative  need  at  this  time  is  an  ade- 
quate equipment  for  the  various  phases  of  our  work.  Our  Mountain  and  other 
mission  schools  are  conducted  in  wretched  and  unsightly  rented  buildings.  In 
many  instances  we  have  no  dormitory,  and  children  are  turned  away  for  lack 
of  accommodations. 

The  Executive  Committee  is  strained  to  meet  the  growing  needs  and  current 
expenses  of  the  work  and  cannot  spare  any  of  its  funds  for  permanent  equip- 
ment. Much  of  our  investment  goes  to  waste  because  we  have  not  the  equipment 
which  will  conserve  the  best  results. 

At  the  suggestion  of  the  Home  Mission  Council,  composed  of  representatives 
of  all  the  great  Protestant  denominations  of  the  United  States,  and  upon  the 
endorsement  of  the  Assembly,  the  Executive  Committee  arranged  for  the 
proper  observance  of  Home  Mission  Week  the  last  of  November,  1912.  Charts, 
circulars  and  leaflets  were  freely  distributed  from  our  office  to  all  the  ministers 
throughout  our  bounds.  In  many  instances  at  our  suggestion  there  was  an 
exchange  of  pulpits,  illustrated  addresses  at  the  mid-week  services  for  months 
beforehand. 

Voluntary  Offerings. — The  Assembly  authorized  voluntary  gifts  during 
Home  Mission  Week  for  the  better  equipment  of  the  work  and  many  of  the 
churches  generously  responded ;  but  in  many  instances  the  funds  were  appro- 
priated by  Local  Home  Missions  and  used  in  worthy  places ;  so  the  Executive 
Committee  that  promoted  the  matter  received  but  little  financial  returns. 

Authorized  by  the  last  Assembly,  the  Executive  Committee,  in  conjunction 
with  the  Laymen's  Missionary  Movement,  held  its  first  great  Home  Missionary 
Convention  in  the  city  of  Memphis,  Tenn.,  February  18-20,  1913.  The  attend- 
ance went  beyond  the  most  sanguine  expectations,  reaching  the  high  water  mark 
of  more  than  1,500,  perhaps  the  largest  and  most  representative  body  that  ever 
assembled  under  the  auspices  of  our  Church.  The  spirit  of  the  Convention  was 
manifest  in  deep  earnestness  and  a  very  decided  spiritual  tone.  As  the  result, 
we  are  firmly  persuaded  that  the  information  furnished  and  the  enthusiasm 
aroused  will  lift  our  Cause  to  a  higher  plane ;  and  it  will  be  always  recognized 
as  an  epoch-making  event  in  the  history  of  our  whole  Church.  The  thanks  of 
the  Committee  have  been  extended  to  the  Laymen's  Missionary  Movement,  and 
especially  to  its  Chairman,  C.  A.  Rowland,  for  the  splendid  work  rendered  the 
cause  of  Home  Missions. 

The  Executive  Committee  entered  heartily  with  the  other  agencies  into  a 
widespread  campaign  to  put  the  Every  Member  Canvass  in  every  church  by  a 
concerted  effort  in  March.  It  furnished  Secretary  McMillan  and  Superin- 
tendent Hudson  for  the  Conferences  and  paid  its  proportionate  part  of  the 
expenses.  It  furnished  charts,  literature  and  all  the  inspiration  it  could  to 
make  the  movement  a  success.     It  commends  most  heartily  the  work  of  Dr.  J. 


98  APPENDIX 

P.  McCallie,  the  Secretary  in  charge  of  this  campaign,  for  his  energy  and 
efficiency  in  the  discharge  of  his  responsibilities. 

The  Executive  Committee  places  on  record  its  grateful  appreciation  of  the 
splendid  service  rendered  by  the  devoted  women  of  the  Church  to  the  cause  of 
Home  Missions  through  their  various  organizations.  The  last  Assembly  created 
a  Woman's  Auxiliary,  with  Mrs.  W.  C.  Winsborough  as  Superintendent;  and 
the  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions,  in  recognition  of  the  fidelity  and 
ability  of  Mrs.  Winsborough,  and  of  the  substantial  support  of  this  organiza- 
tion to  the  cause,  has  cheerfully  contributed  its  pro  rata  share  of  the  amount 
needed  to  finance  the  movement.  We  take  pleasure  in  commending — in  the 
same  connection — the  high  character  of  the  work  rendered  by  Miss  B.  E. 
Lambdin — who,  for  five  years,  has  so  acceptably  served  this  Department  of 
Home  Missions. 

The  following  comparative  statement  will  reveal  the  progress  of  our  As- 
sembly's Home  Missions  since  the  beginning  of  this  century,  at  which  time  the 
present  administration  also  began :

The  steady  growth  of  our  work  necessitates  increased  appropriations  each 
year.  The  Committee  is  compelled  to  scale  applications  from  practically  all 
the  Presbyteries  in  order  to  keep  within  our  income  and  save  the  Church  from 
the  embarrassment  of  debt.  The  following  is  not  all  that  should  be  expended 
for  the  proper  development  of  the  work,  but  is  a  conservative  estimate  based 
upon  the  very  lowest  amounts  neded  to  keep  the  work  from  actual  suffering; 
and  we  most  earnestly  urge  the  Assembly  to  call  upon  the  Church  for  prayerful 
consideration  and  sympathetic  support  of  our  growing  and  aggressive  work :

V.     REPORT  ON  CHRISTIAN  EDUCATION  AND  MINISTERIAL 

RELIEF. 

(absteact.) 

Financial  Statement. — Seven  separate  accounts  are  kept  at  this  office.  The 
receipts  for  all  departments  were  $97,295.64,  as  against  $97,147.31  last  year — an 
increase  of  $148.33.  The  funds  were  designated  as  follows:  Christian  Educa- 
tion and  Ministerial  Relief  (General  Fund),  $35,074.06;  Education  for  the 
Ministry,  $12,785.12;  Ministerial  Relief,  $30,143.58;  Endowment  Fund  of  Min- 
isterial Relief,  $4,972.35;  the  Home  and  School,  $9,903.66;  Schools  and  Colleges, 
$1,245.66;  Educational  Loan  Fund,  $3,171.21. 

These  amounts  were  received  from  the  following  sources :  Churches, 
$59,988.51,  an  increase  over  last  year,  $3,936.90;  Sabbath  Schools,  $4,038.29; 
increase,  $1,210.75;  Societies,  $2,847.02,  increase,  $497.90;  Individuals,  $5,973.66, 
increase,  $705.88;  Interest,  $17,280.92,  increase,  $1,706.78;  Legacies,  $2,788.98, 
decrease,  $4,518.71 ;  Board  and  Tuition,  $2,943.13,  decrease,  $3,424.21 ;  Rent, 
$258.50,  increase,  $25.50;  Refunded,  $585.00,  decrease,  $17.50;  Miscellaneous, 
$591-63,  decrease,  $25.04.     Total  increase,  $148.33. 

We  carry  over  the  smallest  balance  for  years  after  paj'ing  all  pledges  to 
the  beneficiaries  of  Ministerial  Relief,  the  Candidates  for  the  Ministry,  the 
floating  debts  of  the  Assembly's  Home  and  School,  and  meeting  the  other  obli- 
gations of  our  work. 

Small  Increase. — The  increase  in  receipts  is  very  small,  but  in  view  of  the 
fact  that  there  was  a  decrease  of  $4,518.71  from  legacies  and  of  $3,424.21  in 
receipts  for  board  and  tuition  at  the  Home  and  School,  which  last  year,  while 
the  Assembly  was  conducting  the  college,  was  received  from  outside  pupils, 
but  did  not  cover  the  expenses  in  this  department,  it  brings  some  encouragement. 

There  was  a  decrease  in  the  receipts  of  this  Committee  the  previous  year, 
and  we  had  great  need  for  a  large  increase  over  our  last  year's  returns. 

The  expenses  in  all  departments  of  our  work  have  been  greatly  reduced, 
and  in  every  way  we  are  using  the  greatest  economy  consistent  with  the  most 
efficient  service  to  the  Church.  The  initial  cost  of  the  consolidation  of  all  the 
departments  of  our  work  has  been  met  and  we  are  now  beginning  to  realize  the 
great  saving  of  time,  effort,  money  and  a  real  gain  in  efficiency  incident  to  this 
action  of  the  General  Assembly. 

Formerly  the  General  or  Undesignated  Funds — those  remitted  for  "Chris- 
tian Education  and  Ministerial  Relief" — were  divided  in  this  ratio:  Education 
for  the  Ministry,  one-third ;  Ministerial  Relief,  one-half ;  Assembly's  Home  and 
School,  one-tenth ;  and  Schools  and  Colleges,  one-fifteenth. 

By  direction  of  the  last  Assembly,  the  "Undesignated  Funds"  are  now  "dis- 


loo  APPENDIX 

tributed  by  the  Committee  when  and  as  the  needs  of  its  several  departments 
are  ascertained." 

The  wisdom  of  this  action  of  the  General  Assembly  has  been  fully  justified 
and  has  resulted  in  saving  part  of  our  work  from  hurtful  embarrassment. 

Campaign  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship. — The  campaign  authorized  by 
the  last  Assembly  met  with  the  hearty  sympathy  and  active  co-operation  of  the 
Committee.  Much  of  the  time  of  the  Secretary  and  a  just  proportion  of  our 
funds  were  given  to  this  united  effort  during  the  past  year. 

We  believe  that  the  results  of  this  campaign  will  be  manifest  in  larger 
and  more  intelligent  giving  on  the  part  of  our  people,  a  closer  co-operation 
between  the  executive  agencies  of  the  Church,  a  quickening  of  the  spiritual  life 
of  our  people,  and  a  larger  ingathering  of  souls. 

The  Woman's  Auxiliary. — Complying  with  the  instruction  that  the  four 
Executive  Committees  be  directed  to  select  a  woman  possessing  suitable  gifts, 
who,  under  their  direction,  shall  give  her  whole  time  to  the  work  of  organizing 
our  women,  etc.,  we  desire  to  report  that  our  Executive  Secretary  was  ap- 
pointed as  the  representative  of  this  Committee  on  a  "Supervising  Committee 
of  the  Woman's  Auxiliary,"  and  has  attended  all  the  meetings  of  the  same. 

We  have  been  greatly  gratified  at  the  renewed  interest  taken  in  our  work 
by  the  Women's  Societies.  Constant  appeals  are  coming  to  our  office  for  liter- 
ature and  for  suggestions  as  to  how  the  Societies  can  best  help  in  the  work  of 
this  Committee.  As  woman's  influence  is  so  potent  in  the  home,  and  as  this  is 
the  true  and  principal  source  from  which  all  of  our  young  men  receive  the 
inspiration  that  prepares  them  for  the  ministry  and  guides  them  into  this  work, 
we  view  with  great  hopefulness  this  broadening  of  the  scope  of  our  women's 
interest  and  prayers  and  work. 

Vocational  Exercises. — "The  King's  Heralds,"  an  exercise  prepared  by  the 
Committee  to  be  used  at  the  Christmas  season,  sounded  a  clear  call  to  our 
young  people  to  give  earnest  heed  to  the  claims  of  God  upon  their  lives  for 
His  service. 

About  forty  thousand  of  these  exercises  were  ordered  by  the  Sabbath 
Schools  and  Societies.  They  were  sent  free  on  condition  that  an  offering  for 
the  Committee's  work  be  taken. 

We  have  already  learned  of  much  good  accomplished  by  the  use  of  "The 
King's  Heralds,"  and  we  are  sure  seeds  have  been  sown  in  young  minds  that 
will  bear  rich  fruit  in  our  Church  to  the  glory  of  Christ. 

The  Missionary  Survey. — Great  good  has  come  to  our  work  through  our 
participation  in  the  publishing  of  "The  Missionary  Survey."  Under  the  skillful 
oversight  of  Mr.  W.  C.  Smith,  the  managing  editor,  this  publication  has  been 
greatly  improved  in  its  makeup  and  appearance,  and  its  circulation  extended. 
The  united  magazine  gives  emphasis  to  the  unity  of  all  the  work  of  the  Church 
and  supplies  the  membership  with  a  more  symmetrical  knowledge  concerning 
the  needs  and  opportunities  of  the  Church  both  at  home  and  abroad. 

Education  for  the  Ministry. — The  increase  in  the  number  of  candidates  for 
the  ministry,  which  began  eleven  years  ago,  has  continued  without  interruption. 
As  the  majority  of  those  who  seek  the  ministry  decide  early  in  life  and  before 
they  have   entered   upon   or  completed   the   college  course,   it   requires    several 


APPENDIX  loi 

years  for  the  Church  to  feel  the  effects  of  the  increase  in  the  number  of  candi- 
dates. We  gratefully  note  the  fact  that  our  theological  seminaries  have  grad- 
uated the  largest  number  of  students  for  many  years — ^possibly  the  largest  in 
their  history — sixty-nine  men  sent  out  prepared  to  enter  the  fields  now  ripe  for 
the  harvest. 

Ati  Enlarging  Work. — Of  the  five  hundred  and  two  candidates  under  care 
of  the  various  Presbyteries,  previous  to  their  Spring  Meetings,  four  hundred 
and  eleven  in  some  period  of  their  preparation — either  during  the  four  years  in 
college  or  the  three  years  in  the  theological  seminary — have  had  to  look  to  the 
Church  for  aid. 

In  this  number  are  men  who  are  being  prepared  for  all  the  fields  of  the 
Church  :  Mexicans  for  the  foreign  mission  fields  of  Texas  and  Mexico,  Cubans 
and  Porto  Ricans  for  our  neighbor  islands,  volunteers  for  all  the  foreign 
fields  occupied  by  the  Church,  and  men  for  all  the  broad  and  ever-extending 
fields  in  the  homeland.  From  these  funds  also  we  are  assisting  in  the  training 
and  equipping  of  the  medical  corps  for  the  foreign  field — aiding  a  limited  number 
of  picked  men  ready  for  medical  college,  who,  after  graduation,  will  go  out 
under  our  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions  as  medical  missionaries. 

Need  for  Men. — Reports  from  the  various  Presbyteries  indicate  that  more  than 
two  hundred  and  fifty  ordained  men  are  needed  at  once  in  the  home  field,  and 
that  funds  can  easily  be  secured  to  provide  salaries  for  them.  Our  ministers 
are  dying  at  the  rate  of  about  thirty-five  a  year,  and  as  these  drop  out  others 
must  be  secured  for  their  places. 

In  our  foreign  fields  in  China,  Japan,  Korea,  Africa,  Brazil,  Mexico  and 
Cuba,  which  contain  more  than  25,000,000  souls,  we  have  now  only  about  one 
hundred  ordained  men  and  two  hundred  more  will  doubtless  soon  be  required. 
These  must  be  recruited  from  the  young  men  now  in  preparation  in  our  schools, 
colleges  and  seminaries,  or  from  the  scanty  supply  of  ministers  now  in  the 
extending  field  at  home. 

Aid  to  Candidates. — The  Presbyteries  this  year  have  recommended  to  the 
Executive  Committee  for  aid  three  hundred  and  two  candidates  for  the  ministry. 
This  is  the  largest  number  aided  in  any  year  in  the  history  of  our  Church.  By 
reducing  to  a  minimum  the  balance  carried  over  to  meet  the  needs  of  the  first 
month  of  the  new  year,  we  were  able  to  pay  the  full  amount  requested  for  them, 
$29,106.40,  as  against  $20,487.25  the  previous  year. 

For  many  years  the  maximum  amount  of  appropriation  to  a  candidate  for 
a  year  has  been  $100.  In  1910-11,  on  account  of  the  large  increase  in  the  number 
and  the  small  increase  in  the  amounts  contributed,  it  was  necessary  to  scale 
this  amount  to  $82.50,  and  in  1911-12  to  $75.00. 

Medical  Missionaries. — In  1908  request  came  to  our  Committee  from  three 
Presbyteries  for  aid  for  worthy  young  men  of  approved  character  from  poor 
homes  who  desired  to  give  their  lives  to  the  service  of  Christ  and  our  Church 
as  medical  missionaries.  The  General  Assembly  at  its  next  meeting  directed : 
"That  on  the  recommendation  of  the  Presbyteries  aid  may  be  given  to  young 
men  studying  medicine  with  the  view  to  service  in  our  Foreign  Mission  field, 
such  aid  to  be  given  only  while  in  the  medical  schools,  and  to  be  in  the  form 
of  loans,  which  may  be  cancelled  by  service  on  the  foreign  field."    It  was  later 


102  APPENDIX 

ordered  that  the  applicant  also  receive  the  endorsement  of  the  Executive  Com 
mittee  of  Foreign  Missions  before  any  appropriation  be  made. 

Five  applications  in  behalf  of  prospective  medical  missionaries  have  been 
approved  and  we  hold  ten  notes  for  amounts  paid  them. 

We  would  suggest  that  only  students  who  have  matriculated,  or  who  are 
qualified  to  matriculate,  in  a  duly  accredited  medical  college,  shall  be  eligible 
for  aid,  and  that  no  more  than  four  years  of  aid  be  granted  to  any  one  student. 

Students  in  State  Educational  Institutions. — Your  Committee  has  rendered 
every  assistance  possible  to  the  various  Synods  in  caring  for  the  Presbyterian 
youth  in  State  institutions  of  higher  learning. 

We  are  still  of  the  opinion  that  it  is  the  solemn  duty  of  the  Synod  to  see 
that  adequate  Church  provisions  are  made  for  these  students,  and  that  they  have 
the  wisest  and  most  constant  pastoral  oversight. 

One  out  of  every  six  or  seven  of  the  students  of  these  institutions  in  the 
South  is  a  Presbyterian,  or  comes  from  a  Presbyterian  home.  No  more  im- 
portant field  of  effort  could  be  found  than  the  care  of  these  youths,  who  must 
soon  be  among  the  leaders  both  in  Church  and  State. 

The  Supply  of  Candidates. — Since  January  i,  1913,  the  Presbyteries  re- 
ported to  our  office  a  total  of  502  candidates  already  under  their  care.  We 
were  able  to  locate  all  but  thirty-four  of  these,  and  have  furnished  their  names 
and  addresses  to  our  five  theological  seminaries.  Many  of  these  will  doubtless 
be  made  licentiates  at  the  spring  meetings  of  Presbyteries,  but  we  have  the 
names  of  others  who  will  apply  to  be  received  under  care  of  the  Presbyteries. 

State  of  Preparation. — Of  the  502  candidates,  192  are  in  the  seminary ;  167  in 
college ;  21  in  schools  and  academies ;  three  are  studying  privately ;  77  for  the 
present  are  at  work;  eight  are  out  on  account  of  ill  health,  while  we  have  failed 
to  discover  the  present  occupation  of  34. 

Of  the  192  in  the  theological  seminaries,  66  are  in  the  third  year  class;  57 
in  the  second ;  68  in  the  first ;  and  one  is  in  the  post-graduate  class. 

Of  the  167  in  college,  three  are  post-graduates;  46  are  in  the  Senior  class; 
36  in  the  Junior ;  28  in  the  Sophomore ;  38  in  the  Freshman ;  while  16  are  ir- 
regular. 

Whence  They  Come. — We  have  learned  the  occupation  of  the  fathers  of 
447  of  our  candidates.  Of  these,  220  have  fathers  who  are  farmers;  60  are  the 
sons  of  ministers;  40  of  merchants;  17  of  laborers.  There  are  eight  each  whose 
fathers  are  carpenters  and  railroad  men;  seven  each  whose  fathers  are  physi- 
cians, salesmen,  professors ;  six  each  whose  fathers  are  lawyers,  mechanics,  news- 
paper men ;  four  each  whose  fathers  are  contractors  and  lumbermen ;  three 
each  whose  fathers  are  manufacturers,  bankers,  insurance  men,  mill  men ;  two 
each  whose  fathers  are  druggists,  tailors,  electricians,  butchers,  foremen,  real 
estate  men,  bookkeepers,  army  officers ;  and  one  each  whose  fathers  are  in  19 
occupations. 

Ministerial  Relief. — Your  Committee  rejoices  to  report  that  we  have  been 
enabled  this  year  to  appropriate  and  pay  all  the  amounts  requested  by  the  Pres- 
byteries for  our  aged  and  enfeebled  ministers  and  for  the  needy  widows  and 
little  orphans  of  our  deceased  ministers  and  missionaries. 

These  amounts  were  not  large;  in  some  cases  we  know  they  were  wholly 


APPENDIX  103 

inadequate  to  meet  the  need  of  these  saddened  homes.  In  past  years  the  means 
for  meeting  this  solemn  obligation  of  the  Church  has  been  so  small  and  the 
number  of  needy  homes  so  great  the  Presbyteries  have  each  year  reduced 
their  requests  to  a  minimum. 

The  Presbyterial  Chairmen. — The  Committee  would  express  its  deep  ap- 
preciation of  the  Presbyterial  Chairmen,  who  have  so  carefully  administered 
the  business  referred  to  them  from  the  office.  Many  of  them,  without  any 
remuneration,  have  given  largely  of  their  time  and  sometimes  of  their  own 
means  in  visiting  the  Beneficiaries  of  Ministerial  Relief  and  looking  after  their 
comfort.  The  hearts  of  many  of  the  lonely  widows  have  been  cheered  and 
strengthened  by  the  wise  counsel  and  help  of  these  faithful  Chairmen. 

The  Roll. — We  have  had  on  our  Roll  of  Beneficiaries  during  the  year  61 
ministers,  150  widows,  and  18  orphans — 229  needy  homes. 

The  61  ministers  have  reached  the  average  age  of  70  years. 

The  oldest  beneficiary  is  87  years  of  age  and  has  labored  64  years  in  the 
service  of  the  Church.  The  youngest  minister  enrolled  is  41  years  of  age,  and 
is  now  an  invalid. 

The  61  ministers  have  served  Christ  and  our  Church  2,285  years,  an  average 
term  of  service  of  37  years.  The  168  deceased  ministers  whose  families  are  on 
the  rolls,  served  for  4,229  years.  These  6,514  years  of  service  were  rendered  in 
the  following  Synods:  Alabama,  446  years;  Arkansas,  163;  Florida,  182; 
Georgia,  587;  Kentucky,  312;  Louisiana,  124;  Mississippi,  481;  Missouri,  185; 
North  Carolina,  603;  Oklahoma,  135;  South  Carolina,  791;  Tennessee,  377; 
Texas,  647;  Virginia,  1,362;  on  the  Foreign  Mission  Field,  25;  in  the  Pres- 
byterian Church  U.  S.  A.,  94. 

Of  the  ISO  widows  on  our  roll  the  average  age  is  about  63  years,  and  their 
husbands  spent  in  the  service  of  our  Church  an  average  of  25  years. 

In  these  homes  of  refinement  and  want  are  more  than  75  little  fatherless 
children  under  the  age  of  14  years.    Of  these  30  are  not  yet  10  years  old. 

Assistance  Rendered. — The  average  assistance  rendered  the  32  ministers  on 
the  Honorably  Retired  Roll  is  $254.38. 

The  average  amount  paid  the  29  other  ministers  is  $192.85. 

The  average  amount  sent  to  each  of  the  61  ministers  is  $2^5.13. 

The  average  amount  forwarded  to  each  home  of  the  150  widows  is  $138.87. 

The  average  amount  furnished  each  of  the  18  orphans  is  $75.00. 

The  average  assistance  to  each  of  the  229  families  on  the  roll  is  $156.83 
per  annum,  or  44  cents  a  day  per  family. 

Removed  by  Death. — Since  our  last  report  six  ministers  and  three  widows 
have  been  removed  from  our  rolls  by  death.  The  reports  from  many  of  our 
aged  beneficiaries  reveal  the  fact  that  they  are  gradually  growing  weaker,  the 
shadows  about  them  are  lengthening,  and  the  time  of  their  departure  is  nearly 
at  hand.    What  we  do  for  these  must  be  done  quickly. 

The  Endowment  Fund. — On  account  of  the  urgency  of  the  needs  of  some  of 
the  departments  of  the  Church  work  for  the  past  two  or  three  years,  we  have 
put  forth  little  effort  to  increase  the  gifts  to  the  Endowment  Fund  of  Minis- 
terial Relief.  Under  the  old  schedule  of  collections,  the  third  Sabbath  in 
November  was  designated  as  the  time  for  an  offering  for  this  fund.     Now  no 


104  APPENDIX 

time  is  set  for  such  an  offering,  and  it  is  not  included  in  the  fourteen  per  cent, 
of  the  amounts  contributed  for  the  Assembly  Causes,  which  has  been  requested 
for  Christian  Education  and  Ministerial  Relief. 

We  are  sure  the  Assembly  acted  wisely  when  she  requested  $500,000  for 
the  Endowment  Fund  of  Ministerial  Relief  and  commended  it  to  our  people  of 
means  for  their  gifts  and  legacies,  and  we  are  planning  to  more  insistently  call 
their  attention  to  this  important  provision. 

If  there  is  any  part  of  the  Church's  work  that  should  be  assisted  by  income 
from  endowment  funds  it  is  the  work  of  Ministerial  Relief.  The  appeal  from 
these  afflicted  ones  is  not  heard  by  the  ears  of  our  busy,  prosperous  people.  It 
is  the  mute  appeal  of  tired  bodies,  worn  out  in  the  service  of  our  Church  and 
the  Master,  of  lonely  widows  who  have  long  shared  the  privations  and  toils  of 
faithful  ministers  in  the  mission  fields,  and  are  now  aged  and  feeble,  with  no 
one  left  to  provide  for  them,  or  of  younger  widows  with  little  children  depend- 
ent upon  them  for  a  time  and  who  need  the  Church's  help  in  meeting  the  respon- 
sibilities   God  has  allowed  to  come  upon  them. 

If  consideration  for  these  did  not  forbid,  we  might  pull  back  the  curtain 
and  reveal  their  suffering  and  want.  No  eye  would  be  dry,  no  heart  would 
shut  up  its  compassion,  and  no  hand  would  withhold  the  needed  assistance.  But 
this  cannot  be  done,  and  their  needs  may  easily  be  overlooked.  Doubtless  for 
this  reason  God  said  once  and  again  to  Israel,  "Take  heed  to  thyself  that  thou 
forsake  not  the  Levite  as  long  as  thou  livest  upon  the  earth."  Their  need  is 
certain,  the  provision  to  meet  the  need  should  be  made  less  uncertain. 

The  Assembly  meets  this  year  in  the  city  which  was  the  scene  of  the  life  of 
the  late  Mr.  Hugh  T.  Inman,  an  elder  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church,  who 
gave  $100,000  for  the  Endowment  Fund  of  Ministerial  Relief.  This  was  the 
largest  single  gift  to  any  part  of  the  Church's  work,  and  aroused  the  whole 
Church  to  greater  expectancy  and  effort.  It  would  be  fitting  at  such  a  time  to 
thank  God  for  the  blessing  He  has  bestowed  through  His  servant  upon  His 
aged  servants  and  needy  widows  and  orphans  of  our  ministers  and  the  whole 
Church,  and  to  plan  larger  things  for  this  work. 

The  Assembly's  Home  and  School. — The  directions  of  the  last  Assembly 
as  regards  the  Home  and  School  have  been  carried  out  as  faithfully  as  possible. 

The  institution  known  as  Fredericksburg  College  has  been  entirely  sep- 
arated from  the  Home  and  School.  The  buildings  and  grounds  have  been 
turned  over  to  Messrs.  Barney  and  Adams,  free  of  rent  for  two  years,  under 
condition  that  they  maintain  the  College  as  previously  organized,  keep  the  prop- 
erty insured  and  pay  for  repairs. 

There  still  remain  unpaid  notes,  given  on  the  purchase  price  of  this  prop- 
erty ($18,000)  January,  1910,  to  the  amount  of  $12,470,  and  other  notes  are  out 
to  the  amount  of  $1,045.55,  making  the  total  indebtedness  $13,515.55.  (One  of 
these  notes  for  $1,530  was  paid  last  year  and  so  reported,  but  money  had  been 
borrowed  at  bank  to  meet  it.) 

We  pay  Messrs.  Barney  and  Adams  tuition  for  College  pupils,  $48.00;  for 
Preparatory,  $36.00;  and  for  Primary,  $24.00,  and  board  for  the  five  children 
whose  mothers  are  not  with  them  at  the  rate  of  $15.00  a  month. 

Six  children  between  the  ages  of  fifteen  and  twenty-two  are  boarded  at 
the  Dormitory.     Thirty-two  children  between  the  ages  of  eight  and  twenty-one 


APPENDIX  105 

are  boarded  with  fourteen  mothers.  In  all  twenty  families  receive  additional 
aid  at  the  Home  and  School. 

Just  as  rapidly  as  possible,  without  working  undue  hardship  on  the  widows 
who  have  been  induced  to  move  to  Fredericksburg  and  invest  in  homes  there, 
we  are  obeying  the  instructions  of  the  General  Assembly  "to  give  equal  aid  to 
widows  and  families  of  deceased  ministers  when  in  need  of  financial  assist- 
ance, irrespective  of  place  of  residence  or  agency  through  which  help  of  the 
Church  is  extended.  The  aid  in  every  case  being,  so  far  as  the  Church  can 
give  it,  in  proportion  to  actual  need." 

These  changes  will  diminish  the  institutional  and  administrative  cost  of 
this  work,  will  enable  the  widows  to  live  where  they  desire,  and  where  they 
and  their  children  may  find  employment,  and  will  leave  the  Home  and  School, 
as  originally  intended  and  provided  for  in  its  charter,  a  "Home  and  School" 
(not  a  community  and  college),  where  children  of  deceased  ministers  and  mis- 
sionaries who  have  no  home  may  find  shelter  and  provision  for  the  tender 
years  of  life. 

Inasmuch  as  all  the  children  (with  the  exception  of  six — four  girls  and 
two  boys)  are  boarded  with  their  mothers,  the  Committee  decided  to  accept 
the  proposition  of  Messrs.  Barney  and  Adams  to  board  these  at  the  Dormitory 
at  the  rate  of  fifteen  dollars  a  month  each.  This  made  little  change  in  the  plan 
of  former  years,  except  that  it  transferred  the  financial  responsibility  to  them. 
It  has  been  the  custom  of  the  Home  and  School  to  board  the  outside  pupils 
of  the  school  and  college  during  the  school  period  in  the  Home  provided  by  the 
Church  for  our  own  children,  and  to  close  the  Home  during  the  summer 
months. 

All  the  property  owned  by  the  Church  at  Fredericksburg,  with  the  excep- 
tion of  the  two  cottages  which  are  occupied  by  Mrs.  Gammon  and  Mrs.  Stover, 
is  now  rented.  The  "College  Building  and  Grounds"  and  the  "Dormitory"  have 
been  turned  over  to  Messrs.  Barney  and  Adams,  as  stated  above.  We  have  also 
rented  to  them  the  brick  building  called  "Smithsonia"  for  $300  a  year.  The 
other  building,  known  as  "Scotia,"  has  been  rented  at  the  rate  of  $25  a  month. 

Cost  of  Maintenance. — The  plans  recommended  by  the  Ad  Interim  Com- 
mittee and  adopted  by  the  General  Assembly  have  greatly  reduced  the  insti- 
tutional and  administrative  cost  of  the  work,  so  that  larger  amounts  may  be 
used  for  the  direct  benefit  of  the  needy  widows  and  orphans  of  our  deecased 
ministers  and  missionaries. 

The  tuition  and  board  received  from  outside  pupils  who  have  been  educated 
by  the  Home  and  School  has  never  met  the  expense  of  maintaining  a  primary, 
preparatory  and  college  when  conducted  by  the  Assembly. 

For  the  school  period  from  September,  191 1,  to  June,  1912,  the  cost  of  the 
School  and  College  Department  was  $16,046.58.  For  this  period  we  received 
$7,154.75  for  board  and  tuition,  leaving  a  deficit  of  $8,891.83  in  this  department. 

Of  the  $7,154.75  received  for  board  and  tuition,  $1,512.95  was  collected 
from  the  Home  and  School  families  for  music,  art,  etc.,  which  was  paid  to  the 
instructors  in  these  departments. 

Schools  and  Colleges. — After  diligent  efforts,  we  have  secured  the  most 
accurate  and  complete  information  concerning  all  our  educational  institutions 
that  has  ever  been  presented  to  the  Church.     We  sent  early  the  proofs  of  the 


io6  APPENDIX 

lists  of  the  institutions  published  in  the  Appendix  of  this  report  to  all  the 
Stated  Clerks  of  the  Presbyteries  and  Synods,  asking  them  to  note  any  omis- 
sions, make  corrections  and  return  to  this  office.  We  also  sent  proofs  to  all  the 
institutions  for  approval. 

The  tables  present  a  most  interesting  study  and  reveal  some  serious  prob- 
lems in  our  educational  work. 

We  believe  that  the  time  has  come  for  the  General  Assembly  to  set  some 
standard  to  which  all  her  Colleges  shall  be  urged  to  conform  at  as  early  a 
date  as  possible. 

There  has  come  from  all  the  leading  denominational  boards,  the  State  and 
National  Bureaus  of  Education,  and  from  many  of  the  institutions  themselves  a 
demand,  increasing  in  its  intensity  each  year,  that  honest  work  be  done  in  all 
colleges,  and  that  degrees  be  conferred  only  upon  those  who  have  attained 
sufficient  scholarship  in  pursuing  a  course  of  uniform  studies. 

Almost  all  educators,  both  in  State  and  denominational  institutions,  declare 
that  there  is  today  an  alarming  tendency  towards  the  secularization  of  educa- 
tion. If  our  Church  is  to  do  her  full  duty  towards  her  youth  and  retain  her 
rank  as  a  factor  in  Christian  education,  our  people  must  be  aroused  to  a  deeper 
concern  for  our  schools  and  colleges.  All  of  these  institutions  are  in  need  of 
better  equipment,  larger  endowments  and  a  more  sympathetic  and  prayerful 
interest  on  the  part  of  our  people. 

A.  Pre-Assembly  Conference  on  Education. — Acting  under  instructions  given 
by  the  Assembly,  the  Committee  decided  to  extend  a  call  for  a  Conference  on 
Education  during  the  year.  A  letter  was  sent  to  the  various  institutions,  asking 
if  they  would  co-operate  in  such  a  conference,  and  what  date  would  be  most 
suitable.  Replies  in  the  affirmative  were  received  from  nearly  all,  many  of  them 
enthusiastically  endorsing  the  proposition  and  suggesting  the  date  be  May  13th 
and  14th,  in  Atlanta,  Georgia,  just  preceding  the  meeting  of  the  General  As- 
sembly. It  is  hoped  that  some  recommendations  from  this  conference  may  be 
presented  to  the  Assembly  for  its  guidance  in  helping  to  solve  the  serious 
problems  now  being  faced  by  our  faithful  and  self-denying  educators. 

The  Educational  Loan  Fund. — The  faithful  work  of  Rev.  William  E.  Boggs, 
D.  D.,  LL.  D.,  former  Secretary  of  Schools  and  Colleges,  in  putting  into  prac- 
tical operation  the  plan  of  raising  a  Loan  Fund,  suggested  by  the  Assembly  of 
1908,  from  which  aid  might  be  secured  by  worthy  boys  and  girls  of  our  Church 
who  desire  to  secure  a  higher  education  at  our  Presbyterian  colleges,  has  re- 
sulted in  the  raising  of  a  Loan  Fund  of  $9,841.92,  with  other  amounts  pledged. 
Loans  from  this  fund  have  been  made  to  thirty-two  choice  young  people  of  our 
Church,  eight  girls  and  twenty-four  boys,  who  were  recommended  by  instructors 
and  endorsed  by  the  sessions  of  their  churches. 

Several  "Memorial  Scholarships"  of  $400  each  have  been  contributed  by 
those  who  are  interested  in  the  ambitious  and  deserving  youth  of  the  Church, 
who  have  not  the  means  necessary  to  secure  a  college  education.  This  amount 
is  sufficient  to  help  a  boy  or  girl  through  college,  and  when  paid  back  after 
graduation  will  continue  this  good  work  for  other  students. 

The  maximum  amount  of  aid,  invariably  on  the  basis  of  a  loan,  is  $100  a 
year  for  a  period  of  four  years.     No  candidate  for  the  ministry  who  is  at  the 


APPENDIX  107 

same  time  receiving  aid  from  the  Funds  of  Education  for  the  Ministry  is  eli- 
gible for  a  loan  from  this  fund. 

Our  institutions  are  feeling  the  beneficial  effects  of  this  fund  in  an  in- 
creased attendance,  which  will  be  more  noticeable  as  the  fund  grows.  Loans 
are  made  only  to  those  who  are  attending  our  own  Presbyterian  colleges. 

The  Treasurer. — The  Committee  desires  to  record  its  appreciation  of  the 
exceedingly  valuable  services  of  its  Treasurer,  Mr.  John  Stites.  He  has  now 
for  the  ninth  year  given  freely  of  his  time  and  ability.  His  ripe  experience  and 
sound  judgment  have  in  a  very  special  way  helped  the  Committee  in  the  invest- 
ment and  safeguarding  of  the  funds  of  the  Church. 

Needs  of  the  Executive  Committee. — The  Executive  Committee  greatly 
needs  for  its  work  the  following  amounts:  Education  for  the  Ministry,  $50,000; 
Ministerial  Relief,  $75,000;  Assembly's  Home  and  School,  for  old  debt  on  col- 
lege property,  $14,000;  for  current  expenses  until  changes  ordered  by  the  As- 
sembly can  be  effected,  $6,000;  for  Schools  and  Colleges,  $10,000;  for  the  En- 
dowment Fund  of  Ministerial  Relief,  $180,000  to  complete  the  $500,000  fund 
authorized  by  many  Assemblies;  a  large  increase  in  the  Educational  Loan  Fund, 
which  is  now  $9,850. 

Henry  H.  Sweets,  Executive  Secretary.

APPENDIX  113 

VI.    REPORT    ON    PUBLICATION   AND   SABBATH   SCHOOL   WORK. 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Publication  submits  to  the  General  Assembly, 
in  session  at  Atlanta,  Ga.,  a  review  of  its  activities  for  the  year  ending  March 
31st,  1913. 

Interpreting  an  increase  in  every  department  of  our  work  as  an  enlarged 
service  rendered  the  Church,  we  are  grateful  to  God  for  the  privilege  of  a 
larger  usefulness. 

To  the  friends  who  by  increased  patronage  and  generous  gifts  made  pos- 
sible the  enlarged  work  of  the  year  we  return  sincere  thanks. 

Sales  Department. — Although  seriously  handicapped  by  the  illness,  through- 
out the  holiday  season,  of  our  head  bookkeeper  and  the  head  clerk  in  our  Mail 
Order  Department,  we  report  an  increase  in  sales  in  the  Book  Department  over 
fiscal  year  of  1912,  which  was  our  banner  year. 

We  issued  in  June  a  special  catalogue  describing  Sunday  School  and 
Church  requisites  and  supplies  for  modern  churches,  and  schools  are  now  sup- 
plied promptly.  Through  co-operative  plans  with  other  publication  houses  we 
are  now  importing  direct  from  England  some  desirable  books,  and  plans  are 
under  way  for  a  further  increase  in  syndicate  buying  of  books  and  other  material. 

The  sales  account  for  the  past  year  is  as  follows : 

Sale  of  Books  at  Richmond $  66,947.48 

Sale  of  Periodicals  at  Richmond 100,337.38 

Total  sales  at  Richmond $167,284.86 

Sale  of  books  at  Texarkana $  27,566.94 

Sale  of  Periodicals  at  Texarkana 19,687.44 

Total  sales   at  Texarkana $  47,254.38 

Total  sales  for  the  year $214,539.24 

Net  profit  for  the  year 3,580.71 

For  information,  the  increase  in  the  business  of  the  Committee  is  noted  in 
table  of  sales  from  the  year  1903  to  1913,  inclusive: 

Sales  in   1903 $  43,587.00 

Sales  in  1904 92,201.00 

Sales  in  1905 105,307.00 

Sales  in  1906 116,951.00 

Sales  in  1907 129,001.00 

Sales  in  1908  146,064.00 

Sales  in  1909 160,224.00 

Sales  in  1910 164,067.00 

Sales  in  191  r 185,962.00 

Sales  in  1912 202,046.00 

Sales  in  1913 214,539.00 

Texarkana  Depository. — The  depository  continues  to  serve  its  constituency 
with  growing  efficiency,  and  our  members  in  the  five  Synods  west  of  the 
Mississippi  River  are  making  a  larger  use  of  its  resources.  The  sales  at  the 
depository  were  $47,254,38,  an  increase  over  last  year  of  $2,677.     They  made 


114  APPENDIX 

their  first  venture  this  year  in  publication  work  when  they  issued  a  little  booklet 
entitled  "The  Little  Pongee  Gown,"  a  reprint  of  a  charming  missionary  story 
by  Mrs.  P.  H.  Eager,  of  Mississippi.  A  larger  stock  of  miscellaneous  books  is 
carried  at  Texarkana  than  at  Richmond,  in  view  of  their  distance  from  the 
great  publishing  centers  and  our  desire  to  fill  orders  promptly. 

The  depository  should  have  a  larger  patronage  to  put  it  on  a  self-sustaining 
basis,  and  we  again  appeal  for  the  loyal  support  of  our  Church  membership  in 
the  Southwest. 

Publication  Work. — ^The  general  order  of  the  Assembly  that  we  secure,  in 
advance,  the  printing  cost  of  new  books  offered  for  publication  operates  to  de- 
crease the  output  of  new  books,  but  the  restriction  is  wise,  as  it  is  evident  a  loss 
of  over  $50,000  was  sustained  under  the  old  policy  of  printing  almost  everything 
offered.  During  the  past  year  we  issued  the  Pastoral  Letter  ordered  by  the  last 
Assembly  on  the  subject  of  Graded  Sunday  School  Lessons,  and  printed  in 
pamphlet  form  two  sections  of  the  report  of  the  Ad  Interim  Committee  on 
Romanism. 

We  issued  reprint  editions  of  Psalms  and  Hymns,  Assembly  Hymns,  Choc- 
taw Hymns,  the  Teacher  Training  Text-Book,  and  a  revised  edition  of  Dr. 
Morris'  text-book,  "At  Our  Own  Door."  We  issued  by  order  of  the  Assembly 
10,000  copies  of  a  consolidated  Prayer  Calendar,  representing  all  the  Assembly 
causes,  which  met  with  great  favor,  and  the  edition  was  exhausted  by  April  ist. 

We  published  about  the  usual  number  of  tracts,  new  and  reprints,  and 
printed  over  100,000  leaflets  for  use  in  the  Campaign  of  Evangelism  and  Stew- 
ardship. 

Periodical  Department. — The  steady  increase  in  the  circulation  of  our  publi- 
cations is  construed  as  an  endorsement  of  their  acceptability  by  the  Church  at 
large,  and  we  are  grateful  for  this  practical  expression  of  appreciation.  The 
circulation  of  single  copies  neared  the  twelve  million  mark  this  year,  a  gain  of 
about  eight  million  over  the  number  printed  prior  to  1903,  when  we  took  the 
publication  and  circulation  of  the  papers  into  our  own  hands.  We  have  increased 
the  number  of  our  periodicals  from  eight  to  sixteen  in  the  same  period. 

It  is  our  purpose  and  constant  endeavor  to  improve  the  character  of  every 
periodical,  and  additions  are  being  made  to  our  list  as  fast  as  a  clearly  defined 
need  is  discovered  and  our  finances  will  permit. 

The  Missionary  Survey. — The  development  of  the  circulation  of  the  Mis- 
sionary Survey,  the  official  organ  of  the  Assemblj%  has  had  our  careful  attention, 
and  we  are  now  printing  25,000  copies  monthly,  an  increase  of  about  13,000 
copies  over  the  subscription  list  turned  over  to  us  on  November  I,  191 1,  by  the 
Foreign  Mission  and  Home  Mission  Journals  it  succeeded. 

Mr.  W.  C.  Smith,  the  managing  editor,  is  devoting  himself  with  untiring 
energy  and  great  efficiency  to  giving  our  people  an  instructive  and  inspiring 
journal,  and  the  approval  of  the  Church  is  expressed  in  the  subscription  list  we 
are  building  up. 

We  added  a  department  of  Woman's  Work  when  the  Woman's  Auxiliary 
was  organized  in  July,  1912,  and  the  efficient  superintendent  of  the  Auxiliary, 
Mrs.  W.  C.  Winsborough,  edits  the  new  section.  This  new  section  is  proving 
quite  helpful  to  the  women's  organizations  of  the  Church,  as  it  tends  to  unify 


APPENDIX  115 

and  standardize  their  activities  and  is  a  clearing  house  for  tested  and  approved 
methods  of  work. 

While  the  increase  in  circulation  is  very  gratifying,  we  have  to  report  that 
the  magazine  is  not  yet  on  a  self-sustaining  basis.  We  furnish  about  2,500  free 
copies  to  ministers  and  workers  in  home  and  foreign  fields,  and  we  spare  no 
expense  to  give  the  Church  a  handsomely  illustrated  and  printed  journal.  It  is 
furnished  at  fifty  cents  per  year  in  clubs,  or  just  the  price  of  either  of  the  old 
journals,  which  contained  only  about  one-half  as  much  matter  as  is  offered  in 
the  Missionary  Survey.  The  Missionary  Survey  contains  80  pages  each  issue,  or 
considerably  more  material  than  the  two  journals  it  succeeded,  and  to  accomplish 
its  highest  mission  it  should  have  a  circulation  of  50,000  copies  each  month,  and 
the  Assembly  is  asked  to  urge  the  pastors  and  Church  Societies  to  aid  in  the 
effort  to  place  a  copy  in  every  home  in  the  Church. 

Beginner's  Lesson  Helps. — As  promised  the  last  Assembly,  we  completed 
arrangements  for  the  publication  of  a  series  of  helps  for  the  Beginner's  Depart- 
ment of  the  Sunday  School,  and  on  October  1st,  1912,  we  issued  three  papers 
as  follows:  "The  Beginner's  Bible  Lessons,"  for  pupils;  "The  Beginner's 
Quarterly,"  for  teachers ;  and  the  colored  Picture  Roll,  17x21  inches.  The 
initial  steps  involed  a  heavy  financial  loss,  as  we  determined  to  give  our  schools 
the  very  best  helps  possible,  so  engaged  a  trained  expert  in  beginner's  work, 
Mrs.  W.  C.  Edmondson,  of  Memphis,  to  edit  the  series,  and  contracted  for  a 
special  set  of  colored  charts  and  one  colored  leaflet  each  quarter.  Special 
artists  were  secured  to  furnish  illustrations,  and  the  net  result  is  we  are  offering 
our  schools  a  series  of  Beginner's  Lessons  superior  to  anything  on  the  market. 

The  Evangelism  and  Stewardship  Campaign. — As  ordered  by  the  last  As- 
sembly, the  four  Executive  Committees  and  the  Laymen's  Missionary  Movement 
undertook  an  educational  campaign  in  the  interest  of  Evangelism  and  Steward- 
ship, and  we  undertook,  as  part  of  the  work,  the  publication  of  a  large  part  of 
the  leaflet  literature  and  the  distribution  of  all  the  supplies.  We  also  furnished 
leaders  for  four  of  the  Virginia  Conferences  and  paid  our  pro  rata  of  the 
expenses  of  the  campaign.  The  final  results  of  the  campaign  cannot  be  tabulated 
before  the  end  of  the  next  Church  year,  but  it  is  evident  that  the  Church  will 
enter  upon  the  next  year's  work  with  a  definite  purpose  to  measure  up  more 
fully  to  her  task  of  soul  winning  and  beneficent  work.  Orders  for  collection 
envelopes  indicate  that  the  number  of  churches  using  the  Assembly's  new  plan 
has  about  doubled. 

Extension  and  Benevolent  Work. — The  demands  upon  us  for  donations  of 
Sunday  School  literature,  tracts,  Bibles,  libraries,  and  song  books  increase  much 
faster  than  the  funds  the  Church  is  supposed  to  furnish  for  this  benevolent 
work.  We  make  it  a  rule  to  grant  all  properly  endorsed  applications  for  Sunday 
School  literature  for  newly  established  mission  Sunday  Schools  and  such  schools 
as  have  a  valid  claim  upon  our  donation  fund,  but  our  resources  will  not 
permit  us  to  grant  all  applications  for  donations  of  books  and  other  material. 
We  aided  27y  schools  by  donating  their  literature  in  whole  or  in  part  and  about 
15,000  young  people  are  enrolled  in  these  schools.  This  is  distinctly  pioneer  work, 
and  we  are  sustaining  schools  in  many  places  where  the  time  has  not  come  for 
planting  a  church  and  where  a  support  for  a  Home  Mission  pastor  cannot  be 


ii6  APPENDIX 

provided.  Properly  directed,  these  mission  schools  develop  into  Home  Mission 
churches,  then  into  self-supporting  organizations  and  ultimately  they  become 
contributors  to  all  the  benevolent  activities  of  the  Assembly.  No  work  our 
Church  undertakes  has  a  stronger  claim  for  sympathy  and  generous  support 
than  the  effort  to  give  the  gospel  to  our  share  of  the  great  throng  of  white 
children  in  the  South  who  are  destitute  of  gospel  privileges. 

We  awarded  858  Bibles  and  2,570  Testaments  for  the  recitation  of  the 
Catechism,  and  there  seems  to  be  a  growing  number  of  workers  in  our  Church 
who  believe  in  drilling  the  old  truths  of  these  standards  into  the  minds  of  the 
growing  generation.  We  now  give  a  divinity  circuit  Oxford  Bible,  with  a 
specially  prepared  presentation  page,  for  the  recitation  of  the  Shorter  Catechism, 
and  a  handsome  Oxford  Testament  for  the  recitation  of  the  Introduction  to  the 
Shorter  Catechism.  We  also  furnish  certificates  to  be  signed  by  pastor,  superin- 
tendent and  teacher.  The  total  value  of  literature,  books,  tracts,  Bibles  and 
other  supplies  donated  this  year  was  $12,938.96,  or  an  increase  of  about  $1,822 
over  the  donations  of  the  previous  year. 

Field  Work. — No  greater  trial  is  laid  upon  those  who  bear  responsibility  in 
the  Executive  Committee  offices  than  the  necessity  to  refuse  urgent  appeals  for 
workers  to  carry  the  Word  of  Life  to  those  who  sit  in  apparent  content  in 
ignorance  and  sordid  sin.  This  experience  comes  with  increasing  frequency  to 
our  Committee  as  the  rapid  development  of  the  South  opens  up  new  fields  of 
opportunity  in  the  multiplying  mill  and  factory  centers,  the  growing  mining  and 
lumber  camps,  the  virile  frontier  towns,  the  extending  suburbs  of  our  great 
cities  and  the  overcrowded  slum  districts,  with  their  congestion  of  negroes  and 
foreigners,  and  in  every  place  throngs  of  children  await  the  Sunday  School  as 
the  one  agency  to  overcome  the  neglect  of  religious  training  in  the  home  and 
counteract  the  evil  environment  in  which  they  live. 

We  could  use  effectively  a  Sunday  School  missionary  in  each  of  our  eighty- 
four  Presbyteries,  and  many  special  fields  are  open  which  would  make  it 
easily  possible  to  use  one  hundred  workers  if  funds  were  available  for  their 
support. 

The  Church  has  not  yet  awakened  to  the  importance  of  this  work  nor  the 
urgency  of  the  problem,  or  she  would  not  be  content  to  fix  the  meager  sum  of 
$30,000  as  the  measure  of  her  interest  in  the  youth  of  the  Southland,  and,  year 
by  year,  face  without  apparent  shame  the  fact  that  this  pitiful  amount  had  not 
been  raised. 

We  employed  all  the  workers  during  the  past  year  that  our  resources 
justified,  and  reference  to  the  report  of  the  Superintendent  of  Sabbath  School 
and  Young  People's  Work  indicates  that  their  labors  were  fruitful  in  a  high 
degree.  Applications  for  workers  for  districts  just  as  needy  and  as  potential 
in  results  had  to  be  declined  because  funds  were  not  in  sight  for  their  support. 
The  total  offerings  of  the  Church  for  the  Extension  Work  we  conduct  showed 
a  slight  gain  over  the  previous  year,  due  chiefly  to  the  lively  interest  the  Sunday 
School  manifested  in  the  offering  given  by  them  on  Rally  Day  in  1912. 

The  following  is  the  financial  summary  of  our  Benevolent  Work  for  the 
past  year : 


APPENDIX  117 

Receipts  for  Extension  Work. 

Received  from  1,324  churches $16,136.90 

Received  from  1,525  Sunday  Schools 1 1,963.38 

Received  from  miscellaneous  offerings i,3i7-77 

Total  receipts  for  Extension  Work $29,418.05 

Expenditures  for  Extension  Work. 

Salaries  and  expenses  of  Superintendent  and  Field  Workers $11,095.26 

Institutes  and  Educational  Work 1,239.32 

Programs,  envelopes,  etc.,  for  special  collections 1,606.91 

Special   expenses   of    Campaign   of   Eangelism   and    Stewardship   and 

Woman's  Auxiliary 910.00

Donation  of  books,  Bibles  and  literature 12,938.96 

Funds   returned    105.99 

Total  expenditures  for  the  year $29,502.22 

We  have  made  good  each  year  the  overdraft  of  our  Benevolent  Account 
by  a  donation  from  the  earnings  of  the  Business  Department.  The  amount 
contributed  by  the  Business  Department  to  the  Extension  and  Benevolent  Fund 
from  1903  to  1913,  inclusive,  is  $47,855.00,  or  an  average  of  about  $4,350  per  year. 
Recommendations. — (i)  In  view  of  the  fact  that  1,893  churches  and  1,600 
Sabbath  Schools  reported  no  offerings  taken  for  the  Extension  Work  of  our 
Committee,  we  recommend  that  the  Assembly  again  enjoin  every  church  and 
school  in  the  Assembly  to  make  an  offering  for  this  cause. 

(2)  The  number  of  schools  observing  Rally  Day  has  grown  from  314  in 
1900  to  over  1,400  in  1912,  and  as  the  total  offering  from  the  Sunday  School  is  a 
large  part  of  our  fund  for  Extension  Work  and  vital  to  its  continued  existence, 
a  time  for  the  observance  of  Rally  Day  should  be  fixed  at  a  point  that  will  suit 
the  convenience  of  the  largest  nujnber  of  schools.  The  experience  of  our  own 
and  other  Churches  prove  that  the  first  Sunday  in  October  is  the  most  favorable 
date  for  the  territory  in  which  our  schools  are  located.  The  Assembly  of  1912 
changed  the  date  for  Rally  Day  to  the  last  Sunday  in  September  without  giving 
due  consideration  to  the  demoralization  and  loss  of  effectiveness  such  a  change 
in  a  long  established  custom  might  have.  After  one  year's  experience  with  the 
new  date,  we  are  convinced  the  original  date  is  best  for  the  very  large  majority 
of  our  schools,  and  we  recommend  a  return  to  the  first  Sunday  in  October  for 
Rally  Day. 

(3)  We  ask  that  the  General  Assembly  specially  commend  to  our  people 
our  series  of  Uniform  Lesson  helps  as  presented  in  our  graded  system  of  Quar- 
terlies, believing  that  this  is  the  very  best  system  yet  devised  for  the  majority 
of  our  schools  for  the  study  in  the  Sabbath  Schools  of  the  Word  of  God.  We 
would  have  the  Assembly  specially  urge  the  more  perfect  grading  of  our 
schools  by  the  intelligent  use  of  our  entire  Quarterly  series. 

(4)  In  view  of  the  enlarged  opportunity  confronting  our  Church,  the 
pressing  need  for  more  field  workers,  and  the  growing  demand  for  larger  dona- 
tions of  literature,  books,  Bibles,  tracts  and  general   supplies,  we  recommend 


xi8  APPENDIX 

that  the  churches  and  schools  of  the  Assembly  be  asked  to  raise  as  the  minimum 
for  the  Extension  Work  of  the  Publication  Committee  the  sum  of  $40,000.  Our 
estimate  is  based  upon  the  budget  below,  which,  if  provided,  will  not  be  ade- 
quate to  meet  the  obligations  confronting  us : 

Salaries  and  expenses  of    superintendent    and    Sunday    School    mis- 
sionaries     $20,000.00 

Donations  of  literature,  Bibles,  tracts,  etc 13,500.00 

Printed  matter  for  Educational  and  Inspirational  Work 2,500.00 

Institutes  and  Educational  Work 2,500.00 

Young  People's  and  Brotherhood  Work 1,500.00 


$40,000.00 
Respectfully  submitted  by  order  of  the  Committee, 

R.  E.  Magill.  Executive  Secretary. 

FROM  THE  REPORT  OF  THE  GENERAL  SUPERINTENDENT  OF 
SUNDAY  SCHOOLS  AND  YOUNG  PEOPLE'S  SOCIETIES. 

SUNDAY  SCHOOLS. 

Thanksgiving. — To  the  praise  of  God  it  may  be  said  that  during  the  year 
there  has  been  steady  development  of  the  work  of  this  department  along  all 
lines.  Throughout  the  Church  there  has  been  great  unity  of  purpose  and 
harmony  in  action.  The  Sunday  School  Advisory  Committee  has  made  important 
contribution  of  time  and  counsel. 

Matters  Referred  by  the  Last  Assembly. — The  Special  Committee  on  Train- 
ing Schools  met  at  Montreat,  N.  C,  August,  1912.  No  definite  proposition  for 
the  establishment  of  such  a  school  was  made  to  the  Committee,  which  adjourned 
after  considerable  discussion  of  the  whole  subject. 

OMce  Work  and  Study. — The  work  of  this  department  is  carried  on  to  a 
very  large  extent  by  correspondence,  which  has  grown  large  and  varied.  Much 
more  could  be  done  if  our  income  would  justify  the  employment  of  additional 
help.  During  my  frequent  and  often  prolonged  absences  the  correspondence  is 
cared  for  by  the  stenographer,  who  has  rendered  efficient  and  unselfish  service 
to  the  cause.  The  demands  on  my  strength  and  time  to  meet  the  demands  of 
daily  routine  are  so  insistent  that  little  time  is  left  for  investigation  and  study. 

The  Secondary  Division. — The  Secondary  Division  of  the  Sunday  School 
has  been  organized  to  provide  for  the  needs  of  pupils  between  the  ages  of 
twelve  and  twenty,  and  includes  the  Intermediate  and  Senior  Departments. 
Increasing  anxiety  concerning  these  pupils  is  felt  as  we  have  been  brought  face 
to  face  with  the  fact  that  the  Sunday  School  is  failing  to  hold  them.  As  one 
of  the  results  of  the  investigations  of  the  Commission  on  Adolescence,  leading 
workers  are  earnestly  recommending  the  organized  class  as  the  most  effective 
remedy  for  the  conditions,  providing  as  it  does  through  its  sessions  on  Sunday 
and  during  the  week  for  special  Bible  teaching  and  for  adapted  forms  of 
Christian  service.  Many  workers  believe  th'at  through  the  Sunday  School  these 
organized  classes  may  provide  for  most  of  the  work  hitherto  done  by  the  young 
people's  societies,  thus  simplifying  the  organization  without  the  loss  of  efficiency. 
The  Executive   Committee,  through  its  Manuals   for  Teachers  and   Pupils,  its 


APPENDIX  119 

excellent  Intermediate  and  Senior  Quarterlies  and  other  forms  of  literature,  is 
prepared  to  supply  the  needs  of  the  schools  in  this  respect. 

Teacher  Training. — The  work  of  training  teachers  goes  quietly  on  without 
sensational  results.  In  the  First  Standard  Course  we  have  registered  a  total  of 
3,220  students  since  the  work  began.  Of  this  number  198  registered  the  past 
year,  during  which  time  we  issued  12  diplomas  for  the  completion  of  the  course, 
and  21  certificates  for  the  completion  of  the  first  year  of  the  two-volume  edi- 
tion of  the  course.  During  the  year  four  students  registered  in  the  Correspond- 
ence Course,  bringing  the  total  up  to  46.  No  students  registered  in  the  Advanced 
Standard  Course.  It  is  difficult  to  understand  why  pastors  and  sessions  do  not 
give  more  attention  to  this  essential  work.  Will  not  the  Assembly  speak  some 
strong  word  of  encouragement  to  them? 

The  attention  of  the  Assembly  is  again  called  to  the  growing  need  of  at 
least  one  well  equipped  Training  School.  The  number  of  persons  who  would  at 
once  seek  training  as  Sunday  School  teachers  and  officers  and  missionary  work- 
ers is  not  large,  but  it  is  evident  that  number  would  increase  if  the  facilities 
were  offered  earnestly  and  attractively. 

Parents'  Department. — In  order  that  parents  who  feel  keenly  their  need  of 
special  help  in  the  rearing  of  their  children,  and  in  order  that  the  co-operation 
between  home  and  school  may  be  made  more  efifective,  some  Sunday  School 
leaders  are  recommending  the  establishment  of  Parents'  Departments.  By 
this  means  it  is  confidently  hoped  that  classes  for  parents  meeting  on  Sunday 
or  on  week-days  may  be  organized  for  special  study  and  reading. 

The  Home  and  Visitation  Department. — The  work  of  the  Home  Depart- 
ment has  been  enriched  by  the  introduction  of  plans  to  promote  family  worship. 
The  work  of  house-to-house  visitation  also  has  been  added  to  this  department. 
So  that  the  department  now  includes  plans  for  the  discovery  of,  the  location 
and  religious  status  of  every  family,  for  an  invitation  to  each  to  identify  itself 
with  the  Church  of  its  choice,  for  the  spiritual  culture  of  the  home  through 
family  worship  and  definite  Bible  study. 

Children  and  Church  Attendance. — In  many  communities,  especially  in  the 
cities,  it  is  a  source  of  serious  complaint  that  the  pupils  of  the  Sunday  Schools 
to  a  notable  degree  do  not  attend  public  worship.  There  is  a  lack  of  definite 
information  on  this  subject  in  our  own  churches,  and  careful  investigation  is 
needed.  But  enough  is  knov/n  to  cause  anxiety.  •  There  are  three  chief  causes 
at  work  to  produce  the  conditions.  Parents  fail  to  teach  their  children  the 
duty  of  attending  worship  and  do  not  require  it.  Some  persons  think  that 
attendance  on  Sunday  School  and  Church  worship,  when  they  follow  each 
other  closely,  is  too  much  of  a  tax  on  the  attention  of  children.  It  often  hap- 
pens that  the  minister,  for  one  reason  or  another,  does  not  plan  to  meet  the 
interests  and  need  of  the  children  in  the  worship.  Mere  criticism  will  not 
produce  a  remedy  of  the  evil  tendency  and  practice.  Definite  constructive  work 
is  needed.  In  this  connection  attention  is  called  to  "The  Young  Worshipper's 
League,"  a  most  hopeful  plan  originating  with  Sir  W.  Robertson  Nicoll  in  Eng- 
land, which  seems  to  be  simple,  adaptable  and  efifective. 

Adapted  Uniform  Lessons. — It  appears  from  reliable  sources  of  informa- 
tion that  the  vast  majority  of  our  schools  are  still  using  the  Uniform  Lessons, 


120  APPENDIX 

and  are  in  most  cases  satisfied  with  them.  In  accordance  with  the  plans  approved 
by  the  last  General  Assembly,  an  earnest  effort  was  made  to  work  in  with  the 
Uniform  Bible  Lesson,  memory  work  and  instruction  in  the  Catechisms, 
hymns,  missions  and  certain  manual  work,  all  in  adapted  forms.  The  issues 
of  the  Primary,  Junior  and  Intermediate  Quarterlies  for  January,  1913,  carried 
this  adapted  material,  but  material  changes  were  not  made  in  the  Senior  Quar- 
terly, nor  was  material  specially  adapted  to  the  guidance  of  organized  adult 
■classes  introduced  into  the  Home  Department  and  Adult  Quarterly.  This 
added  material,  with  explanations  and  suggestions  for  teachers  and  officers 
for  handling  it  effectively  was  printed  in  a  series  of  small  Manuals  of  Graded 
Instruction,  which  have  been  widely  distributed.  Another  series  of  manual 
for  the  use  of  pupils  and  parents  will  be  printed  containing  all  the  added 
matter  in  detail  by  departments.  It  is  well-nigh  impossible  to  tell  how  far  this 
material  is  being  used,  except  in  the  case  of  catechism..  This  seems  to  be  the 
most  practical  method  for  curing  some  of  the  acknowledged  defects  of  the 
Uniform  System. 

Graded  Lessons. — A  very  small  percentage  of  our  schools  is  using  the 
International  Graded  Lessons  either  in  the  form  of  the  syndicate's  or  other  treat- 
ment. There  are  some  schools  using  these  lessons,  while  others  have  inquired  about 
them,  and  others  still  are  considering  carefully  the  whole  subject  of  grading.  The 
general  situation  in  regard  to  Graded  Lessons  has  altered  considerably  in  the 
last  year.  The  American  Baptist  Publication  Society,  the  Sunday  School 
Board  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention,  and  the  United  Presbyterian  Board 
of  Publication  have  each  issvied  for  its  constituency  its  own  treatment  of  the 
International  Graded  Lessons.  The  Sunday  School  Times  is  offering  its  read- 
ers a  treatment  of  these  lessons.  Certain  non-denominational  Graded  Courses 
are  claiming  attention,  as  those  of  the  University  of  Chicago,  and  Chas.  Scrib- 
ner's  Sons  have  taken  over  the  old  Bible  Study  Union  (Blakeslee)  Courses  and 
are  advertising  them  as  "The  Completely  Graded  Series."  The  syndicate  rep- 
resenting the  Presbyterian  Church  U.  S.A.,  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  the 
Congregational  Church,  and  the  Methodist  Church,  South,  has  continued  to  issue  its 
Graded  Lessons,  and  will  no  doubt  complete  the  series.  In  answer  to  various  over- 
tures on  the  subject  of  the  relation  of  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath  School 
Work  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  U.  S.  A.  to  the  syndicate  and  its  publications,  the 
last  General  Assembly  of  that  Church  appointed  a  special  committee  "to  which 
shall  be  referred,  in  connection  with  the  Board  of  Publication  and  Sabbath 
School  Work,  the  whole  matter  of  the  Graded  Lessons."  The  Assembly  directed 
its  Board  of  Publication  and  the  ad  interim  Committee  "to  withdraw  from  cir- 
culation such  Graded  Lessons  as  the  Committee  finds  objectionable."  As  one 
of  the  results  of  the  investigations  of  this  Committee,  the  Board  of  Publication 
was  instructed  "to  cease  the  publication  and  sale  of  its  Graded  Series  of  Sabbath 
School  lessons,  above  the  Junior  grade,  on  September  30,  1913,  or  at  an  earlier 
<iate  if  practicable,"  and  furthermore  a  sub-committee  was  "authorized  to  report 
a  plan  of  revision  of  the  Beginners,  Primary  and  Junior  Series  of  Graded  Les- 
sons." The  Board  of  Publication  was  advised  also  to  inquire  into  the  feasibility 
of  preparing  a  course  of  Graded  Lessons  by  the  joint  action  of  the  Presbyterian 
and  Reformed  Churches  in  the  United  States. 

In  view  of  this  whole  situation,  your  Executive  Committee  of  Publication

ii  studying  the  needs  and  wishes  of  our  churches  so  that  on  the  one  hand  our 
historic  faith  may  be  preserved  and  on  the  other  the  just  demands  for  progress 
may  be  satisfied. 

Sunday  School  Extension  and  Missions. — The  missionary  spirit  and  ideals 
must  be  close  to  the  heart  and  conscience  of  our  schools  if  they  are  ever  to 
enter  largely  into  the  missionary  activities  of  the  Church  at  home  and  abroad. 
Through  the  worship  and  systematic  instruction  and  giving  of  the  schools, 
during  their  Sunday  sessions  and  through  the  mission  classes  and  other  activities 
during  the  week-days,  they  may  be  powerful  agents  in  Church  extension. 

Is  it  too  much  to  ask  that  each  Church  shall  earnestly  seek  to  establish  at 
least  one  mission  school?  Such  service  develops  the  graces  of  Christians,  in- 
creases greatly  the  influence  of  the  Bible  and  leads  directly  to  salvation  of  many 
who  are  lost.  Many  strong  churches  have  come  from  such  missions,  and  have 
in  turn  become  propagative  agencies. 

The  Presbyteries  are  becoming  sensible  of  the  value  of  the  Sunday  School 
missionary  as  the  pioneer  of  organized  religion.  Amongst  the  older  Presby- 
teres  in  the  East,  Greenbrier,  Fayetteville,  Albemarle,  Concord,  Columbia  and 
Mobile  are  already  rejoicing  in  the  fruits  of  this  work,  while  Brazos,  West 
Lexington,  Memphis  and  Wilmington  are  planning  to  take  it  up  vigorously.  In 
the  Southwest,  Potosi,  Durant,  Indian,  Central  Texas  and  especially  Western 
Texas  Presbyteries  have  made  substantial  gains  through  this  work. 

The  Synod  of  Mississippi  has  made  Sunday  School  Extension  one  of  the 
chief  features  of  its  progressive  Home  Mission  work.  The  success  there  at- 
tained suggests  that  other  Synods  may  profitably  devote  more  time  and  money 
to  the  work  of  the  Sunday  School  missionary. 

A  most  helpful  factor  in  this  work  of  extension  is  the  distribution  of  liter- 
ature. The  Executive  Committee,  as  in  the  past,  is  ready  to  supply  all  new 
schools  with  free  literature  for  a  reasonable  period  of  time.  During  the  past 
year  277  schools,  with  a  total  enrollment  of  about  15,000,  have  been  so  supplied. 
These  schools  have  been  distributed  as  shown  in  the  following  table :

YOUNG    people's    SOCIETIES. 

The  reports  in  Church  Societies  submitted  to  the  Assembly  of  1912  by  83 
Presbyteries  showed  that  there  were  1,157  Young  People's  Societies,  with  a 
total  membership  of  26,806.    They  made  contributions  as  follows : 

Foreign  Missions    $ii,49S 

Home  Missions   6,632 

Local   causes    12,467 

Other  causes    6,274 

Grand  total    $36,828 

In  its  report  to  the  Assembly  the  Standing  Committee  on  Church  Societies 
remarks :  "The  reports  on  Men's  and  Boys'  Societies  are  of  very  fragmentary 
nature,  but  show  259  Societies,  with  a  membership  of  7,099  and  total  contribu- 
tions of  $14,436."  From  these  reports  the  following  table  has  been  made,  ac- 
count here  being  taken  of  those  only  whose  purposes  are  general  Christian 
culture : 

Name.  Number.    Enrollment. 

Brotherhood    55  2,072 

Covenanter    99  1,964 

Miriams    "j"]  1,347 

Westminster  League    61  2,271 

Christian  Endeavor   186  5,249 

From  these  figures  it  appears  that  there  were  2,235  churches  without  Young 
People's  Societies  of  any  kind,  or  that  did  not  report  on  the  subject.  Their 
average  membership  was  about  24  each;  their  average  contribution  to  all  causes 
was  about  $33.00  each;  and  their  average  contribution  per  member  was  one 
dollar  and  a  half.  In  view  of  these  facts  there  is  reason  for  encouragement. 
But  there  is  cause  for  most  serious  reflection  and  vigorous  action  also.  The 
most  superficial  thought  will  reveal  the  fact  that  for  the  present,  confining  our 
view  to  those  of  the  teen  age,  we  are  giving  far  too  little  attention  to  the 
needs  and  capacities  of  our  young  folks.  Their  supreme  need  is  personal 
salvation.  It  happens  far  too  often  that  when  they  are  received  into  the 
Church  on  confession  of  faith  they  are  not  given  adapted  forms  of  service 
through  which  to  express  their  new-born  devotion  to  Jesus  Christ. 

As  pointed  out  in  a  preceding  paragraph  of  this  report,  there  is  an  unmis- 
takable tendency  for  the  Sunday  School  to  provide  more  and  more  for  the 
expressional  side  of  the  pupil's  life  through  graded  activities  inspired  and 
directed  by  the  Organized  Bible  Class.  It  will  undoubtedly  make  for  both 
economy  and  efifectiveness  if  one  organization,  like  the  Sunday  School,  can 
provide  both  teaching  and  training  in  service.  That  it  can  be  done  is  proved 
by  the  fact  that  it  has  been  and  is  being  done  under  widely  differing  conditions. 
What  is  to  be  done  in  any  one  case  must,  of  course,  be  left  to  the  decision  of 
the  proper  officers  in  the  local  church. 

In  view  of  the  practical  impossibility  of  providing  in  the  same  group  for  the 
trainiag  of  boys  and  girls  from  eight  to  twelve  years  with  those  between 
twelve  and  seventeen  years,  it  seems  that  in  the  future  the  work  of  the  Cov- 
enanters  and   Miriams   should   be  planned   especially  for   the  younger  groups, 


APPENDIX  123 

while  the  needs  of  the  older  groups  may  be  provided  for  either  through  Senior 
Departments  of  the  Covenanters  and  Miriams,  or  through  organized  Bible 
Classes  in  the  Intermediate  and  Senior  Departments  of  the  Sunday  School. 

In  certain  places  throughout  the  Church  the  Brotherhoods  have  done  noble 
service  for  the  Kingdom,  leading  men  into  a  deeper  sense  of  the  reality  and 
blessedness  of  Bible  Study,  Prayer  and  Service. 

This  great  movement  in  some  of  our  sister  denominations,  notably  the 
Protestant  Episcopal,  Congregational,  Methodist  Episcopal,  United  Presbyterian 
and  the  Presbyterian  U.  S.  A.,  has  profoundly  affected  their  men,  and  has  at- 
tained a  place  of  great  influence.  In  our  own  Church  the  Layman's  Missionary 
Movement  had  already  reached  a  place  of  influence  and  power  when  the  Brother- 
hood was  organized.  Under  the  authority  of  the  General  Assembly  the  Lay- 
man's Movement  has  properly  extended  its  influence  into  every  Presbytery 
of  the  Church. 

EDITORIAL  DEPARTMENT. 
Another  ecclesiastical  year  has  come  and  gone,  in  which  God  has  mer- 
cifully spared  the  lives  of  our  editorial  force  and  given  us  strength  and 
opportunity  to  labor  for  Him ;  and  in  which  our  periodical  literature,  through 
His  blessing  and  loyal  support  of  His  people,  has  "lengthened  its  cords  and 
strengthened  its  stakes."

Our  Periodicals. — The  Earnest  Worker  continues  to  maintain  its  position 
at  the  head  of  our  periodical  list,  both  in  the  gain  made  in  its  circulation  and 
in  the  place  which  it  occupies  as  our  principal  lesson  help.  Going  into  the 
hands  of  all  our  ministers  and  of  almost  every  one  of  our  teachers  and  Sab- 


124  APPENDIX 

bath  School  superintendents,  it  also  has  a  large  constituency  in  our  Adult 
Bible  Classes;  and  so,  with  its  subscription  list,  which  this  Spring  will  prob- 
ably cross  the  50,000  mark,  it  occupies  a  position  of  commanding  influence.  We 
have  every  reason  to  believe  that  not  only  does  it  give  to  our  people  the  help 
which  they  seek  in  the  study  of  the  regular  Sabbath  School  lessons,  but  its 
editorial  pages  constitute  a  medium  of  access  to  the  whole  Church  with  large 
possibilities,  affording  an  opportunity  for  the  inculcation  of  a  wide  range  of 
instruction. 

Through  the  editorial  pages  of  the  Earnest  Worker  we  are  giving  practical 
suggestions  along  all  lines  of  Sabbath  School  work;  the  new  features  promised 
in  our  last  report  to  the  Assembly  have  been  fully  carried  out  through  this 
year,  and  we  hope  to  develop  the  "Department  of  Practical  Sabbath  School 
Work"  into  higher  efficiency  through  the  year  that  is  to  come.  Especially 
significant  and  helpful  has  been  the  "Pastor's  Department,"  in  which  a  con- 
siderable number  of  our  most  active  pastors  have  favored  our  readers  with 
accounts  of  their  actual  experience  in  personal  contact  with  the  work  in  their 
own  Sabbath  Schools.  Many  valuable  suggestions  to  other  brethren  in  the 
ministry,  and  along  general  lines  of  Sabbath  School  activity,  have  thus  been 
given. 

The  Quarterlies  have  been  improved  until  they  are  going  far  in  the  direc- 
tion of  realizing  our  ideal  of  presenting  to  our  people  a  carefully  graded 
treatment  of  one  and  the  same  Uniform  Scripture  Lesson.  The  lesson,  of 
course,  is  the  International  Uniform  Lesson  selection,  but  it  is  treated  in  the 
four  Quarterlies — the  Primary,  the  Junior,  the  Intermediate  and  Senior — so  as 
to  adapt  it  to  every  stage  of  advancement  in  which  our  Sabbath  School 
scholars  are  found. 

We  invite  the  Assembly  to  study  these  Quarterlies  carefully  in  detail.  Such 
detailed  study  will  show  first,  how  skilfully  the  Uniform  Lesson  is  presented 
to  the  very  youngest  children  in  the  Primary  Quarterly.  The  Quarterly  itself 
is  kept  in  the  hands  of  the  teacher,  but  a  leaf  is  cut  out  each  Sunday,  which 
the  pupil  carries  home  and  has  read  by  father  or  mother  and  studied  in 
preparation  for  recitation  on  the  following  Sabbath.  Along  with  this,  there 
is  simple  hand  work,  which  consists  mainly  in  the  pasting  in  of  the  picture 
found  in  the  back  of  the  Quarterly  to  illustrate  the  lesson  of  the  day. 

The  Junior  Quarterly,  providing  as  it  does  for  the  wants  of  children  from 
nine  to  twelve  years  of  age,  treats  the  lesson  more  fully,  providing  not  only 
some  simple  hand  work,  such  as  is  given  in  the  Primary  Quarterly,  but  also 
requiring  the  pupil  to  memorize  at  home  hymns  and  Scripture  selections,  the 
answer  in  writing  of  some  pertinent  questions,  and  so  calling  for  a  much 
higher  grade  of  useful  home  study. 

In  the  Intermediate  Quarterly  the  idea  of  home  study  is  carried  out  still 
more  elaborately.  This  Quarterly  provides  for  a  special  study  on  each  week- 
day, as  well  as  the  general  preparation  of  the  lesson  for  the  Sunday  recitation. 
There  are  historical  illustrations  and  allusions  to  matters  which  the  adolescent 
boy  and  girl — age,  12  to  16 — is  constantly  meeting  with  in  high  school  study,  or 
in  the  affairs  of  ordinary  life.  The  effort  is  made  to  bring  the  one  Uniform 
Lesson  home  to  the  daily  interests  of  this  most  important  class  of   Sabbath 


APPENDIX  I2S 

School  scholars,  who  are  at  the  critical  period  of  their  mental  and  spiritual 
development. 

The  Senior  Quarterly  is  the  next  step  in  the  series,  and  is  designed  to  meet 
the  needs  of  the  advanced  Intermediate  Grade ;  that  is,  young  people  from  sev- 
enteen to  twenty  years  of  age.  At  the  same  time  the  exposition  is  exhaustive 
enough  to  make  this  periodical  acceptable  to  the  large  group  of  students  in  the 
schools  which  do  not  follow  a  rigid  system  of  grading  by  ages.  There  is  a 
Scripture  exposition,  with  special  explanation  of  the  difficulties  in  the  lesson 
text  and  the  practical  enforcement  of  its  doctrinal  and  devotional  teachings, 
and  brief  suggestions  as  to  home  work.  A  series  of  questions  are  framed  to  fix 
the  outstanding  truths  of  the  lesson  in  the  mind  of  the  student  and  also  call 
for  some  Biblical  research,  bringing  out  the  connection  of  that  passage  with 
the  larger  aspects  of  divine  revelation  as  presented  in  other  portions  of  God's 
Word. 

The  Home  Department  and  Adult  Bible  Class  Quarterly  was  begun  in  its 
new  combined  form  in  the  last  quarter  of  1912.  This  periodical  furnishes  a 
more  exhaustive  study  of  the  lesson  text  than  is  found  in  the  other  quarterlies 
and  the  daily  readings  are  illuminated  by  a  suggestive  paragraph  which  will 
be  found  helpful  by  those  who  follow  these  selections  as  the  portion  of  Scrip- 
ture to  be  read  for  family  worship.  The  needs  of  adult  students,  either  in  the 
school  or  in  the  Home  Department,  are  thus  fully  provided  for  in  this  com- 
bined Quarterly. 

In  addition  to  this  special  lesson  treatment,  the  Adult  Bible  Class  Quarterly 
also  presents  in  its  editorial  pages  suggestions  to  workers,  accounts  of  success- 
ful Bible  Classes,  and  other  material  adapted  to  stimulate  the  activities  of  this 
important  department  of  the  Sabbath  School. 

It  will  be  seen  from  the  above  detailed  examination  of  our  four  Quarterlies  that 
they  proceed  upon  the  thoroughly  established  conviction  which  our  Editorial 
Department  firmly  holds  to,  and  in  which  the  Committee  of  Publication  is 
also  a  unit,  that  the  International  Uniform  Lesson,  when  properly  adapted  to 
the  varying  comprehensions  of  the  younger  and  older  pupils,  furnishes  as 
eflfective  a  method  of  graded  instruction  as  is  needed  in  the  vast  majority  of 
our  schools.  We  do  not  bow  to  the  fetish  which  has  been  set  up  and  reverenced 
so  largely  in  many  quarters  of  our  land,  that  the  children,  and  especially  those 
of  the  Primary  and  Junior  age,  must  have  their  own  peculiar  and  distinct 
course  of  Scripture  study  marked  out  for  them  in  the  selection  of  their  Lesson 
Series  before  they  can  be  made  to  study  the  Word  of  God.  We  believe  that  the 
milk  for  babes  which  the  younger  minds  require  can  be  extracted  from  any 
portion  of  Scripture  by  a  Primary  or  Junior  expert  teacher — that  is,  any  por- 
tion which  can  properly  form  a  part  of  the  regular  series  of  International 
Uniform  Lessons. 

The  Children's  Friend  and  Pearls  for  the  Little  Ones  continue,  under  the 
excellent  and  most  acceptable  management  of  Mrs.  Allan,  to  hold  the  place 
which  they  have  long  filled  in  the  interest  and  affection  of  the  younger  members 
of  the  Sabbath  School.  The  Children's  Friend  now  looks  back  upon  over  fifty 
years  of  usefulness  and  is  still  presented  to  its  young  readers  in  substantially 
the  same  shape,  containing  three  pages  of  interesting  reading  with  a  fourth 
page    which    carries   the   lesson   treatment   both    for   the   advanced   and   junior 


126  APPENDIX 

scholars.     The  Pearls  for  the  Little  Ones  also  has  on  its  fourth  page  the  pri- 
mary lesson  study. 

Omvard's  circulation  has  continued  a  steady  upward  climb,  having  ad- 
vanced frcm  an  average  of  26,000  per  week  in  1911-12  to  31,000  at  the  end 
of  March,  1913.  This  advance  in  circulation  comes  from  a  normal  increase  in 
demand  from  the  Sabbath  Schools,  and  without  any  special  premium  induce- 
ments. We  have  every  reason  to  believe  that  this  our  young  people's  paper  is 
gaining  in  the  favor  of  our  whole  constituency ;  and  we  believe  it  will  more  and 
more  win  its  way  until  it  is  in  the  hands  of  all  of  our  larger  boys  and  girls 
and  is  a  welcome  visitor  in  every  home. 

Looking  over  the  whole  range  of  our  periodical  literature,  all  of  which 
passes  through  the  Editorial  Department,  we  feel  that  the  Church  is  to  be 
congratulated  upon  the  remarkable  growth  of  this  important  phase  of  its 
activities.  The  guidance  of  God  in  the  editorial  conduct  of  this  large  volume 
of  weekly,  monthly  and  quarterly  publications,  the  loyal  and  even  enthusiastic 
support  of  our  whole  constituency,  calls  for  special  notice  and  thankfulness. 


VII.    REPORT  ON  THE  SABBATH  AND  FAMILY  RELIGION. 

The  Permanent  Committee  on  the  Sabbath  and  Family  Religion  would 
respectfully  submit  to  the  General  Assembly  the  following  report: 

Several  weeks  ago,  in  order  to  glean  facts  on  which  to  base  this  report, 
the  Chairman  of  your  Permanent  Committee  wrote  to  the  Stated  Clerks  of  the 
various  Synods  for  a  copy  of  the  Minutes.  An  examination  of  the  Minutes 
disclosed  the  following  facts : 

I.  Of  the  fourteen  Synods  only  six  have  a  Permanent  Committee  on  the 
Sabbath,  and  in  one  of  the  six  the  report  of  the  Committee  is  not  printed. 

II.  Of  the  fourteen  Synods  only  four  have  a  Permanent  Committee  on 
the  Sabbath  and  Family  Religion,  and  in  one  of  the  four  the  report  of  the 
Committee  is  not  published. 

III.  Of  the  fourteen  Synods  four  have  no  Permanent  Committee  on 
Sabbath  and  Family  Religion. 

In  calling  special  attention  to  these  facts,  your  Committee  does  so  in  the 
hope  that  henceforth  every  Synod  in  our  bounds  will  elect  a  capable,  enthusi- 
astic Permanent  Committee  on  Sabbath  and  Family  Religion,  and  thus  promote 
the  interest  of  these  fundamental  causes  in  the  various  Synods ;  and,  in  behalf 
of  your  Committee,  greatly  facilitate  the  work  of  collecting  data. 

From  the  meagre  information  available  we  gather  that  the  situation  is 
practically  unchanged ;  it  indicates  a  "cloudy  day  with  some  rifts  in  the  sky 
through  which  the  light  is  breaking."  One  of  the  most  hopeful  signs  of  the 
times  is  the  awakening  of  our  people  to  the  dangers  which  beset  the  Sabbath 
and  the  Home,  and  the  imperative  necessity  of  employing  all  legitimate  means 
for  the  speedy  restoration  of  these  "twin  pillars  in  the  temple  of  grace." 

THE  SABBATH. 

The  Saviour  who  came  not  to  destroy  the  law  or  the  prophets,  but  to 
fulfill  them,  declares  that  "The  Sabbath  was  made  for  man  and  not  man  for 
the  Sabbath."  It  did  not  originate  with  the  Jews;  neither  did  the  moral 
obligation  to  devote  one  day  in  seven  to  rest  and  the  worship  of  God  cease  to 


APPENDIX  127 

be  binding  when  the  Old  Testament  dispensation  was  succeeded  by  the  New. 
The  Sabbath  command,  like  all  the  commandments  of  the  decalogue,  is  binding 
upon  all  men  in  all  time.  The  Sabbath  was  made  for  man  because  man  needs 
the  Sabbath.  The  "Fourth  Commandment"  is  just  and  equal,  and  its  design 
is  beneficent.  Man  as  a  physical  organism  needs  a  regularly  recurring  rest 
from  the  consuming  rigors  of  physical  and  mental  toil.  If  the  State  may  take 
active  supervision  of  the  public  health  and  devise  measures  to  promote  the 
material  and  temporal  well-being  of  its  citizens,  it  comes  within  its  sphere  to 
preserve  to  the  masses  the  benefits  of  a  regularly  recurring  day  of  rest.  Man  as 
an  immortal  spirit  needs  a  stated  season  of  time  in  which  to  give  himself  to 
the  contemplation  of  his  God ;  and,  in  order  to  do  this,  it  is  essential  that  his 
mental  and  spiritual  powers  be  active.  Unless  there  be  a  suspension  of  the 
demands  of  secular  toil  such  activity  must  be  impossible. 

Man  is  born  in  ignorance,  he  needs  instruction.  How  shall  he  learn  about 
his  Creator,  about  his  own  origin  and  destiny,  about  redemption  and  the  world 
to  come,  unless  he  be  given  a  period  of  time  free  from  the  perplexing,  cor- 
roding cares  of  the  present  world? 

Man  as  a  social  being  and  dwelling  in  families  needs  the  Sabbath  for  the 
cultivation  of  the  moral  possibilities  of  the  home.  Man  needs  the  Sabbath 
that  God  has  ordained,  and  not  one  of  his  own  devising;  not  the  narrow  and 
oppressive  Sabbath  of  Pharisaic  casuistry;  not  the  Sabbath  of  those  who  would 
use  the  day  for  worldly  amusements  and  pleasure ;  but  the  Sabbath  that  was 
made  for  man — one  whole  day  in  every  seven  to  be  devoted  to  rest  and  the 
worship  of  God,  except  so  much  of  the  day  as  is  to  be  taken  up  in  the  works 
of  necessity  and  mercy. 

One  day's  rest  in  seven  is  a  God-given  right  which  ministers  to  a  consti- 
tutional need  of  mind  and  body,  and  we  regard  it  as  the  duty  of  the  State 
to  see  to  it  that  the  toiling  masses  are  not  robbed  of  this  right  by  being  com- 
pelled to  labor  without  cessation  every  day  in  the  year. 

We  recognize  it  as  the  duty  of  the  Church  to  provide  ample  religious 
instruction  and  all  the  privileges  of  worship  within  reasonably  easy  access  of  all 
the  people  on  the  Lord's  Day,  and  by  earnest  solicitation,  entreaty  and  warning  to 
secure  the  attendance  of  all  the  people  upon  this  instruction  and  their  use  of 
these  privileges.  We  would  most  earnestly  emphasize  the  duty  of  the  indi- 
vidual ;  for,  whatever  the  Church  and  State  may  do,  unless  the  individuals  who 
compose  both  the  Church  and  State  avail  themselves  of  the  instruction  and 
privileges  afforded,  the  great  benefits  which  the  Sabbath  is  designed  to  confer 
will  be  lost.  We  insist  that  all  men  keep  the  Sabbath  as  honoring  God;  and 
thus  secure  the  promotion  of  all  men  and  of  the  whole  man.  In  the  matter 
of  Sabbath  observance  we  call  upon  the  Church  of  Christ  to  be  faithful  in 
testimony  and  example. 

FAMILY  RELIGION. 

The  premiership  of  the  home  cannot  be  legitimately  challenged.  No  other 
institution  brings  the  separate  members  of  the  family  into  such  close  and 
sacred  intimacy.  There  is  an  inter-action  of  influence  in  the  home  circle  the 
effects  of  which  are  inevitable  and  pronounced.  The  members  round  each 
other  into  a  common  character,  just  as  the  pebbles  that  roll  and  grind  in  the 
stream   round  each  other  into  a  common   shape.     As  we   study  the  home  of 


128  APPENDIX 

today,  what  do  we  discover?  What  is  the  keynote  to  which  domestic  life  is 
attuned?  There  is  some  keynote,  something  prevailingly  characteristic  of  the 
home.  There  is  a  pace-maker,  so  to  speak,  that  regulates  the  stride  of  all  the 
feet  for  every  day;  some  dominant  thought  that  colors  the  mental  processes 
of  all ;  some  ambition  that  shapes  the  efforts  of  all  to  a  certain  end.  It  is 
obvious  that  the  future  of  civilization  depends  upon  our  homes,  not  upon  the 
individual,  for  the  individual  is  a  product  of  the  home.  According  to  the 
Bible  conception,  the  family,  not  the  individual,  is  the  unit  of  society.  The 
instruction  of  the  individual  will  not  take  the  place  of  home-training,  and 
responsibility  does  not  make  a  citizen.  The  ballot  is  a  poor  substitute  for  the 
family  Bible,  and  the  polling  place  for  the  family  altar.  In  the  at- 
tempt to  appease  conscience,  and  as  a  substitute  for  home  training, 
far  too  many  of  our  Church  members  are  content  to  send  their  chil- 
dren to  the  Sabbath  School  to  be  trained  by  others ;  to  Church  to  be  in- 
structed by  the  ministry.  While  it  is  conceded  that  this  method  is  very  good, 
so  far  is  it  goes,  it  is  like  casting  the  healing  salt  into  the  stream  half  way 
down  its  course.  Since  the  family  is  the  fountain  from  which  flow  the  two 
streams  of  Church  and  State,  it  is  obvious  that  whatever  injuriously  affects  the 
home  must  tell  disastrously  on  Church  and  State. 

RECOM  MENDATIONS. 

We  respectfully  offer  the  following  recommendations : 

1.  That  the  attention  of  our  merchants  be  called  to  the  fact  that  the 
keeping  open  of  stores  on  Saturday  night  until  ten,  eleven  and  sometimes 
twelve  o'clock  unquestionably  incapacitates  employees  for  the  right  perform- 
ance of  Sabbath  duty,  and  thus  involves  Sabbath  desecration. 

2.  That  our  people  be  urged  scrupulously  to  guard  against  any  requisitions 
that  tend  to  encourage  Sabbath  violation  on  the  part  of  servants. 

3.  That  so  far  as  is  expedient  our  ministers,  officers  and  Church  members 
be  exhorted  to  discourage  the  holding  of  funerals  on  the  Lord's  Day. 

4.  That  the  General  Assembly  utter  its  emphatic  disapproval  of  games 
and  sports  on  the  Sabbath,  not  only  in  the  civic  sphere,  but  also  in  the  army 
and  navy;  and  again  remind  our  people  of  the  sin  of  excursions  and  of  unnec- 
essary traveling  on  God's  Day. 

5.  That  in  view  of  the  fact  that  the  Sunday  newspaper  is  inimical  to 
the  Sabbath  and  to  the  home,  the  Assembly  would  solemnly  urge  all  the  Church 
members  in  our  bounds  to  refuse  to  subscribe  for  it,  or  read  it,  or  advertise 
in  it. 

6.  That  the  Assembly  respectfully  request  the  faculties  of  colleges  and 
seminaries,  if  the  way  be  clear,  to  omit  recitations  on  Monday  mornings,  so 
as  to  leave  the  Sabbath  free  from  the  felt  necessity  of  some  of  the  students 
to  prepare  their  lessons  on  that  day. 

7.  That  during  the  year  every  pastor  in  our  bounds  be  urged  to  preach 
on  the  subject  of  Sabbath  Observance  and  also  a  sermon  on  Family  Religion; 
that  just  after  the  sermon  on  Sabbath  Observance  a  special  offering  be  made  for 
the  work  of  "The  Lord's  Day  Alliance  of  the  United  States" ;  and  immediately 
after  the  sermon  on  Family  Religion  an  earnest  effort  be  made  to  place  a  copy 
of  "The  Family  Altar"  in  every  home.

VIII.     REPORT  ON  THE  BIBLE  CAUSE. 

The  Permanent  Committee  on  the  Bible  Cause  would  respectfully  present 
to  the  General  Assembly  its  tenth  report  as  follows: 

A  general  survey  of  the  events  which  have  specially  marked  the  work  of 
our  Church  the  last  year  brings  out  very  interestingly  and  impressively  our 
relations  to  the  Bible,  its  general  circulation  and  its  use. 

First,  at  the  very  beginning  of  the  year,  in  view  of  a  certain  system  of 
graded  lessons  for  the  Sunday  School  which  was  put  forth  by  the  representa- 
tives of  several  leading  denominations  of  our  country,  and  which  gained  even 
the  sanction  of  the  ordinarily  watchful  and  conservative  International  Sunday 
School  Association,  but  which  betrayed  a  departure  from  the  Scriptures  as  the 
only  material  for  Sabbath  School  lessons,  and  other  tendencies  militating  against 
the  supreme  authority  of  the  Bible  as  the  word  of  God,  our  Assembly  felt 
constrained  to  issue  to  its  churches  a  pastoral  letter  admonishing  against  the 
use  of  this  new  system.  This  letter  was  at  once  an  exposure,  a  protest  and  a 
warning;  and  it  was  couched  in  terms  so  plain  and  vigorous  that  it  was  heard 
throughout  the  land  and  had  its  effect.  And  it  served  to  define  positively  and 
distinctly  the  attitude  of  our  Church  with  regard  to  the  matter  of  Sabbath 
School  instruction. 

Second,  in  December  last  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ 
in  America  held  its  Quadrennial  in  Chicago,  our  own  Church  participating. 
In  that  meeting  there  were  certain  developments  relating  especially  to  the 
authority  and  sufficiency  of  the  Scriptures  in  all  Church  work,  which  called 
forth  the  earnest  protest  of  some  of  our  delegates  and  other  leading  men  of 
our  Church  and  has  raised  the  question  of  our  continuing  our  connection  with 
the  Council.  And,  whatever  the  decision  may  be,  the  discussion  has  brought 
to  the  fore  the  position  of  our  Church  with  respect  to  the  Bible  in  all  religious 
work. 

Third,  we  have  just  completed  in  our  Church  a  great  campaign  in  behalf  of 
Evangelism  and  Stewardship.  As  inaugurated  by  our  last  Assembly  and  con- 
ducted under  the  auspices  of  our  Executive  Committees  and  Laymen's  Mis- 
sionary Movement,  it  was  in  the  thoroughness  of  its  organization  and  the 
width  of  its  scope  undoubtedly  the  grandest  enterprise  ever  undertaken  in  our 
Church.  Its  immediate  object  was  to  arouse  our  people  to  signal  efforts  in 
bringing  souls  into  Christ's  Kingdom,  and  at  the  same  time  of  providing 
certain  and  adequate  means  for  carrying  on  the  work  of  the  Church.  And 
what  was  the  keynote  of  this  splendid  campaign?  From  first  to  last,  when 
and  wherever  sounded,  it  was  the  Bible,  as  the  word  of  God,  which  liveth  and 
abideth  forever,  the  incorruptible  seed  by  which  alone  souls  are  born  into  the 
Kingdom ;  the  Bible,  which  also  sets  forth  the  principles  and  method  of  Christian 


130  APPENDIX 

beneficence — "Upon  the  first  day  of  the  week  let  every  one  of  you  lay  by  him 
in  store  as  God  hath  prospered  him." 

Fourth,  during  the  last  year  our  Home  Mission  work,  under  the  wise 
administration  of  our  Executive  Committee  and  the  mighty  influence  of  the 
great  convention  recently  held  in  Memphis  under  the  auspices  of  the  Laymen's 
Missionary  Movement,  has  loomed  up  into  unprecedented  prominence  and 
assumed  a  new  aspect.  And  what  is  that  new  aspect?  It  is  that  because  of  its 
marvelous  material  development  all  eyes  are  now  turned  to  this  Southland,  and  be- 
cause of  the  predominance  of  Protestantism,  the  abiding  adherence  to  the  Bible, 
and  the  general  religious  conservatism  of  our  people,  the  hopes  of  the  Christian 
Church  largely  center  upon  this  section,  it  is  pre-eminently  incumbent  on  our 
Southern  Churches  to  conserve  the  true  forces  of  Christianity  in  this  country ;  and 
our  Church,  holding  tenaciously  to  the  Bible  and  claiming  to  be  thoroughly  Scrip- 
tural in  doctrine,  in  polity  and  in  worship,  must,  as  a  great  agency,  do  its  part, 
not  merely  in  evangelizing  a  few  destitute  sections,  but  in  shaping  and  molding 
the  mountaineers,  the  negroes,  the  Indians,  the  Mexicans  and  other  immi- 
grants— all  classes  who  come  under  its  touch — into  Christian  citizens  and  Bible 
saints.    And  its  one  instrument  in  doing  this  noble  work  is  the  Word  of  God. 

Fifth,  our  Foreign  Mission  work,  too,  has  been  characterized  the  last  year 
by  remarkable  growth,  in  the  large  number  of  new  missionaries  sent  out,  the 
many  souls  gathered  into  the  Church,  and  the  supreme  and  grandly  successful 
eflfort  to  raise  funds  by  strictly  Scriptural  methods  to  pay  off  a  heavy  debt  and 
sustain  the  enlarged  work.  And  in  the  conduct  of  this  great  enterprise  we 
have  gone  forth,  not  to  introduce  or  propagate  a  political,  a  social,  or  even  an 
educational  program,  but  only  with  the  Bible  in  our  hands,  "to  preach  the  gospel 
to  every  creature,"  and  to  "make  disciples  of  all  nations,  teaching  them  to 
observe  all  things  whatsoever  Christ  hath  commanded  us." 

Thus,  all  these  prominent  events  which  have  marked  specially  the  history 
of  our  Church  the  last  year  seem  to  unite  in  emphasizing  our  relations  to  the 
Bible,  and  place  us  in  a  position,  if  not  singular  among  the  Churches  of  our 
land,  yet  distinctive  and  positive,  in  accepting  and  holding  to  the  Scriptures 
as  the  inspired  and  all-sufiicient  Word  of  God,  furnishing  the  only  proper  ma- 
terial for  instruction  in  our  Sabbath  Schools  and  our  pulpits,  and  supplying 
our  chart  in  all  our  Church's  work,  whether  at  home  or  abroad. 

It  must  therefore  be  cause  of  special  gratification  and  genuine  satisfaction 
to  us  as  a  Church  that  we  have  in  our  own  country  a  great  agency,  well  organ- 
ized and  equipped,  in  the  fullest  sympathy  with  our  views  and  principles,  whose 
one  business  it  is  to  circulate  the  Scriptures,  and  which  ever  stands  ready  to 
co-operate  with  us  in  all  our  work.  And  it  must  be  to  us  a  real  pleasure  to 
know  that  this  Society,  through  its  energetic  and  experienced  agents,  and  its 
systematic  canvasses,  is  distributing  the  Bible  more  extensively  than  ever  among 
all  classes  in  our  land;  and  to  the  extent  of  its  resources  is  entering  the  many 
open  doors  in  the  heathen  lands  so  as  to  give  to  these  perishing  people  the 
bread  of  life. 

The  work  of  the  American  Bible  Society  in  this  respect  the  last  year  has 
been  most  encouraging.  Notwithstanding  the  extensive  publication  of  the  Bible 
by  other  publishing  houses  and  the  laudable  efforts  made  by  them  and  other 
agencies  to  circulate  it  among  the  various  classes  of  our  people,  the  demand 


APPENDIX  131 

upon  this  Society,  our  chief  agency,  has  in  no  wise  relaxed ;  and  the  new  doors 
constantly  opening  through  our  Sabbath  Schools,  through  the  immigrants  flock- 
ing to  our  shores,  through  the  notable  enterprise  of  the  "Gideons,"  which  the 
Society  has  encouraged  and  aided,  and  through  the  general  progress  of  Home 
Missions,  have  enlisted  all  the  energies  and  means  which  the  Society  could 
devote  to  the  home  field.  And  in  the  foreign  field  the  opportunities  have  been 
so  overwhelming  as  to  make  the  agents  stand  aghast  and  exclaim,  "Who  is 
sufficient  for  these  things !"  Take  a  single  illustration :  All  eyes  are  now  turned 
to  China,  as  affording  the  most  promising  and  magnificent  mission  field  ever  set 
before  the  Christian  Church.  Last  year  the  American  Bible  Society  reports 
that  it  put  in  circulation  there  1,368,089  volumes  of  Scripture;  that  students 
in  the  public  schools  are  demanding  to  have  the  Bible  taught,  and  freely  pur- 
chase it  for  their  own  use ;  that  at  one  of  the  great  fairs  in  Peking  one  colporteur 
sold  on  an  average  1,000  copies  a  day  for  twelve  days.  And  yet  the  actual 
demand  is  not  half  supplied. 

Reports  from  other  heathen  lands  similar  in  character  might  be  given,  but 
this  is  enough  to  indicate  the  grand  work  which  the  Society  is  doing  in  aid  of 
our  Foreign  Missions. 

The  Committee  would,  therefore,  in  view  of  the  peculiar  attitude  of  our 
Church  toward  this  work,  and  the  splendid  service  which  the  American  Bible 
Society  is  rendering  to  us  in  it,  heartily  commend  this  great  cause  to  the  sym- 
pathy, the  prayers  and  the  liberal  support  of  all  our  people.  We  thank  God 
and  take  courage  for  the  forward  position  which  our  beloved  Church  has  main- 
tained with  regard  to  the  Bible  and  its  use,  and  we  rejoice  that  He  has  raised 
up  and  put  to  our  hand  a  worthy  agency  to  serve  us  in  our  great  mission  as  a 
Church.  Let  us  do  everything  in  our  power  to  magnify  the  Word,  and  to  sus- 
tain and  co-operate  with  this  helpful  agency  until  the  earth  shall  be  full  of  the 
knowledge  of  the  Lord,  as  the  waters  cover  the  sea. 

Thos.  H.  Law,  Chairman. 


IX.  REPORT  ON  SYSTEMATIC  BENEFICENCE. 

Scope  of  Committee. — In  view  of  the  action  of  the  last  Assembly,  reducing 
the  powers  of  the  Systematic  Beneficence  Committee  and  charging  it  "to  do 
nothing  to  embarrass  the  Executive  Committees  and  to  lay  upon  them  no  orders 
or  requirements,"  we  have  been  somewhat  at  a  loss  to  know  what  is  expected 
of  us.  As  a  Committee,  we  have  assumed,  however,  that  the  continuance  of  the 
Committee  by  the  Assembly,  and  the  provision  for  filling  places  in  the  Com- 
mittee's membership  made  vacant  by  resignation,  meant  that  the  Assembly  ex- 
pected us  to  continue  the  work  originally  assigned  us  with  the  exception  of  that 
withdrawn.    This  we  have  attempted  to  do,  but  in  such  way  as  not  to  presume. 

The  Chairman  and  Vice-Chairman  of  the  Committee  having  resigned,  it 
devolved  upon  the  Secretary  to  call  the  Committee  together.  This  he  did,  the 
Committee  meeting  at  the  Church  House  of  the  North  Avenue  Church,  in  At- 
lanta, May  loth,  9:30  a.  m.  A  quorum  being  found  present,  the  Committee  or- 
ganized by  the  election  of  Rev.  J.  W.  Moseley,  Chairman;  Rev.  Jas.  I.  Vance, 
Vice-Chairman ;  Rev.  R.  O.  Flinn,  Secretary;  Mr.  Oscar  Newton,  Assistant 
Secretary. 

The  resignations   of  the  following  members  were  accepted :     Rev.   W.   R. 


132  APPENDIX 

Dobyns,  of  Missouri;  Rev.  T.  S.  Clyce,  of  Texas;  Mr.  John  S.  Munce,  of 
Virginia;  and  Judge  John  Stites,  of  Kentucky.  The  following  were  elected  to 
complete  the  membership  of  the  Committee :  Dr.  James  Lewis  Howe,  alternate 
for  the  Synod  of  Virginia;  Rev.  Trigg  A.  M.  Thomas,  alternate  for  the  Synod 
of  Missouri ;  Capt.  C.  F.  Huhlein,  alternate  for  the  Synod  of  Kentucky. 

Inasmuch  as  membership  on  the  Committee  from  the  Synod  of  Texas  is  to 
be  filled  by  this  Assembly,  we  took  no  action  towards  filling  the  Texas  vacancy. 

I.      RECOMMENDATIONS. 

(i)     Recommendations  concerning  the  work  of  the  Executive  Committees. 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions. —  (a)  Recognizing  that  the 
financial  plans  of  the  Assembly  are  not  incompatible  with  what  is  known  as  the 
"Forward  Movement,"  namely,  the  assumption  by  separate  churches,  societies 
and  individuals  of  definite  responsibility  for  a  definite  part  of  the  Foreign  Mis- 
sion work,  we  recommend  that  the  Assembly  reaffirm  its  endorsement  of  said 
movement  and  commend  it  afresh  to  individuals,  societies  and  congregations  of 
our  Church. 

(b)  In  order  to  rerhove  an  erroneous  impression  on  the  subject,  we  recom- 
mend that  the  General  Assembly  declare  that  its  new  financial  plan  neither 
necessitates  nor  contemplates  the  reduction  of  contributions  heretofore  made 
by  societies,  churches  or  individuals  to  any  cause,  but  rather  the  enlistment  in 
behalf  of  the  other  causes  of  our  people's  heretofore  unused  means  and  en- 
ergies. 

(c)  The  Foreign  Mission  Committee  having,  as  a  result  of  investigation 
into  actual  cost,  fixed  $1,200.00  as  the  amount  necessary  to  be  raised  for  the 
annual  support  of  each  missionary  sent  out,  in  addition  to  the  expense  of  travel 
and  equipment,  we  recommend  that  those  supporting  missionaries  be  urged  by 
the  Assembly  as  soon  as  possible  to  come  up  to  this  standard. 

(d)  We  recommend  that  the  Assembly,  the  debt  having  been  paid,  ex- 
pressly approve  the  present  policy  of  the  Foreign  Mission  Committee  of  living 
within  its  income. 

(e)  We  recommend  that  the  sum  of  $574,560.00  for  the  work  of  the  For- 
eign Mission  Committee  during  the  present  financial  year  be  approved    (being 

54%). 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Home  Missions. —  (a)  We  rejoice  in  the 
splendid  support  given  this  work  by  the  Church  during  the  year,  as  evidenced 
by  their  increased  offerings.  We  feel,  however,  that  the  amount  received  falls 
far  short  of  the  needs  of  the  work  the  Church  should  do  in  the  Home  Mission 
field.  Especially  demanding  attention  are  the  rural  communities,  and  we 
recommend  that  the  Assembly  encourage  all  efforts  to  secure  the  men  and  means 
necessary  for  a  large  and  vigorous  campaign  for  the  country  Church. 

(b)  Inasmuch  as  there  seems  to  be  some  confusion  as  to  what  was  in- 
tended by  the  Assembly  in  the  percentage  ratio  suggested,  and  inasmuch  as  the 
percentage  recommended  for  Home  Missions  seems  to  have  been  sub-divided 
in  such  way  that  in  certain  cases  but  a  small  part  of  it  reaches  the  Assembly's 
Committee,  we  would  recall  the  Assembly's  plan,  which  provides  that  Synods 
and  Presbyteries  shall  add  the  amounts  needed  for  their  local  work  to  the  As- 
sembly's apportionments  and  make  apportionments  to  the  churches  within  their 
bounds  on  such  basis. 


APPENDIX  133 

(c)  From  communications  received  it  appears  that  the  work  of  the  Execu- 
tive Committee  is  seriously  handicapped  both  in  administration  and  funds  by 
the  division  of  our  work  into  Assembly,  Synodical  and  local  departments.  While 
the  combination  of  these  departments  would  be  difficult  to  effect  and  might 
result  in  temporary  distress  to  some  interests  involved,  many  seem  to  feel  it 
would  contribute  greatly  to  economy  and  efficiency  if  all  our  Home  Mission 
work  could  be  brought  under  the  direction  of  the  Executive  Committee,  and 
said  Committee  charged  with  initiation  and  given  larger  powers  in  the  prose- 
cution of  its  work. 

We  recommend,  therefore,  that  this  matter  be  referred  to  such  Committee 
as  the  Assembly  may  deem  proper,  which  shall  consider  whether  some  plan 
cannot  be  devised  for  articulating  and  unifying  all  our  Home  Mission  work. 

(d)  We  recommend  that  the  Church  be  asked  to  raise  $287,280  during  the 
next  year  for  the  work  of  this  Committee  as  outlined  in  its  annual  report  (being 
27%). 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Publication  and  Sabbath  School  Work. — We 
recommend — 

(a)  That  the  name  of  this  Committee  be  changed  to  the  "Executive  Com- 
mittee of  Sabbath  School  Work  and  Publication,"  for  the  reason  that  we  find 
a  disinclination  on  the  part  of  some  to  contribute  to  the  work  of  this  Committee 
on  the  ground  that  our  Publication  work  is  self-sustaining. 

(b)  In  response  to  the  repeated  requests  of  this  Committee  that  the  first 
Sunday  in  October  be  again  adopted  as  Sunday  School  Rally  Day,  we  recom- 
mend that  the  request  be  granted. 

(c)  That  $37,240  be  appropriated  for  the  work  of  this  Committee  (being 
3y2%). 

The  Executive  Committee  of  Christian  Education  and  Ministerial  Relief. — 
We  recommend  that  the  sum  of  $154,280  be  raised  for  Christian  Education  and 
Ministerial  Relief  (being  14^%). 

(2)     Recommendations  concerning: 

Campaign  Committee  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship. — We  record  our  high 
estimate  of  the  great  value  as  an  educational  agency  of  the  Presbyterial  Con- 
ferences held  in  connection  with  the  Campaign  of  Evangelism  and  Stewardship, 
and  would  suggest  that  the  Campaign  Committee  consider  the  advisability  of 
continuing  these  conferences. 

We  commend  the  hearty  co-operation  of  the  Executive  Committee  in  these 
conferences  as  evidenced  in  their  assignment  of  a  part  of  their  secretarial  force 
to  this  work. 

We  recommend — 

(a)  That  the  Campaign  Committee  on  Evangelism  and  Stewarship  be 
continued  for  another  year. 

(b)  That  the  plan  to  raise  $500,000  for  equipment  and  $500,000  for  rein- 
forcement be  approved  and  adopted. 

(c)  That  the  Every  Member  Canvass  in  March,  1914,  be  held  and  its 
promotion  and  conduct  be  referred  to  this  Committee  with  power. 

(d)  That  the  distribution  of  funds  to  be  subscribed  for  equipment  and 
reinforcement  be  according  to  the  scheme  submitted  in  the  report  of  this  Com- 
mittee. 


134  APPENDIX 

(3)     Miscellaneous  recommendations : 

(a)  The  Assembly  of  1912  having  referred  to  this  Committee  the  ad- 
visability of  creating  the  office  of  Educational  Secretary,  whose  duties  should 
be  in  conjunction  with  the  four  Executive  Committees,  we  feel  that  inasmuch 
as  the  Executive  Committee  of  Foreign  Missions  has  a  Secretary  of  Education, 
and  the  other  Executive  Committees  have  publicity  departments,  it  is  not  neces- 
sary to  create  the  additional  office,  and  therefore  we  recommend  that  educational 
matters  of  common  interest  to  the  four  Executive  Committees  be  referred  to 
the  Committee  on  Evangelism  and  Stewardship,  composed,  as  it  is,  of  repre- 
sentatives from  each  of  these  Committees. 

(b)  We  beg  and  recommend  that  the  order  of  the  last  Assembly  requiring 
the  Systematic  Beneficence  Committee  to  have  its  "Annual  Report  printed  prior 
to  the  meeting  of  the  Assembly"  be  rescinded,  on  the  ground  that  the  haste  thus 
demanded  tends  to  result  in  a  less  satisfactory  report,  inasmuch  as  some  of  the 
information  needed  for  the  report  is  not  available  at  this  time,  and  the  attend- 
ance of  the  Executive  Secretaries  so  far  in  advance  of  the  Assembly  is  both 
difficult  and  expensive. 

(c)  We  request  and  recommend  that  when  matters  contained  in  our  report 
are  referred  by  the  Assembly  to  special  or  standing  committees,  these  committees 
be  instructed  to  report  such  matters  back  to  the  Assembly  in  full,  with  their 
findings  on  the  same. 

(d)  We  express  our  gratification  at  the  progress  made  in  organizing  the 
Women's  Work  of  the  Church,  and  would  recommend — 

First.  That  the  Assembly  urge  upon  the  women's  societies  the  importance 
of  supporting  and  co-operating  with  this  movement. 

Second.  That  the  Assembly  urge  upon  the  churches  that  in  the  future,  as 
they  develop  their  women's  work,  they  shall  organize  it  in  harmony  with  the 
genius  of  the  Assembly's  plan,  so  that  due  regard  shall  be  had  to  the  relative 
needs  of  each  of  the  four  Assembly's  Causes,  but  that  this  shall  not  be  done  in 
such  haste  or  in  such  a  manner  as  to  work  harm  to  the  interests  of  causes  that 
are  already  looking  to  them  for  certain  definite  support. 

(e)  We  would  request  that  the  Assembly  appropriate  the  sum  of  $500  for 
clerical  and  incidental  expenses,  besides  the  amount  appropriated  for  the  trav- 
eling expenses  of  members  in  attendance  upon  Committee  meetings. 

(f)  Inasmuch  as  the  rule  of  the  Assembly  called  for  the  printing  of  our 
report  prior  to  the  Assembly's  meeting,  and  inasmuch  as  until  the  time  of  ad- 
journment we  have  received  no  Presbyterial  statistical  reports,  we  have  been 
forced  to  omit  the  same,  but  request  that  we  be  allowed  to  make  a  supplementary 
report  and  recommend  that  the  statistics  as  submitted  be  printed  in  full  in  the 
Assembly's  Minutes,  containing  as  they  will  information  of  value  to  the  churches. 

II.    Expiration  of  committee  membership. 

The  first  term  of  the  following  members  of  the  Committee  expires  with 
this  meeting:

(3)  In  naming  these  five  Causes  and  apportioning  the  amounts  needed  by 
them  among  the  Synods,  we  recommend  that  to  prevent  any  possible  confusion 
the  Assembly  reiterate  its  instructions — 

First,  to  Synods,  that  they  receive  these  amounts  and  add  to  them  such  other 
amounts  as  may  be  needed  for  Synodical  causes,  and  distribute  the  total  amounts 
thus  secured  among  their  Presbyteries. 

Second,  to  Presbyteries,  that  they  receive  the  quotas  from  the  Synods  com- 


138  APPENDIX 

posed  of  the  call  of  the  Synod  for  its  own  needs,  and  the  call  of  the  Assembly 
for  the  needs  of  its  Executive  Committees,  and  the  American  Bible  Society,  and 
that  they  add  to  these  amounts  such  additional  sums  as  may  be  needed  by  the 
Presbytery  for  its  work,  and  that  they  apportion  the  total  thus  secured  among 
their  churches.

X.    THEOLOGICAL  SEMINARIES. 

I.      ANNUAL   REPORT   OF    UNION    THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY    IN   VIRGINIA. 

The  Board  of  Directors  and  Trustees  of  Union  Theological  Seminary  in 
Virginia  would  respectfully  report  to  the  General  Assembly : 

1.  That  in  point  of  attendance  the  Seminary  has  again  broken  all  records, 
the  registration  for  the  session  being  one  hundred  and  seven,  the  largest  enroll- 
ment of  theological  students  in  the  history  of  our  Church.  Of  the  one  hundred 
and  seven  students  enrolled,  eighty-three  are  college  graduates,  eighteen  have 
taken  college  courses  in  part,  but  without  degrees,  and  six  have  had  no  college 
course. 

2.  That  the  seven  professors  have  done  their  work  with  fidelity  and 
thoroughness  and  the  students  have  applied  themselves  to  their  studies  with 
commendable  diligence  and  success.  In  addition  to  the  work  of  the  curriculum, 
they  have  conducted  among  themselves  seven  Mission  Study  Classes  and  have 
made  immediate  application  of  the  principles  acquired  in  active  and  well- 
organized  missions  in  the  destitute  districts  of  Richmond  and  vicinity,  including 
the  State  Penitentiary,  the  State  Reformatory,  the  City  Almshouse,  the  Soldiers' 
Home,  and  the  Seventeenth  Street  Mission  to  Colored  People.  Twenty-six 
of  the  students  are  volunteers  for  the  foreign  field,  including  thirteen  members 
of  the  graduating  class. 

3.  That  the  Seminary  has  secured  the  services  of  Prof.  Geo.  M.  Sleeth 
as  instructor  in  public  speaking,  and  that  the  students  with  one  accord  pro- 
nounce his  instructions  to  be  of  the  highest  value  to  them  in  their  training 
for  their  work  in  the  pulpit. 

4.  That  the  first  series  of  lectures  on  the  James  Sprunt  Foundation  was 
delivered  by  the  Rev.  David  James  Burrell,  D.  D.,  of  New  York,  and  the  lectures 
published  under  the  imprimatur  of  the  Seminary  in  a  volume  entitled  "The 
Sermon ;  Its  Construction  and  Delivery" ;  that  the  second  series  will  be  deliv- 
ered in  October  of  this  year  by  Sir  William  Ramsay,  of  Edinburgh,  on  "The 
Bearing  of  Recent  Discovery  on  the  Trustworthiness  of  the  New  Testament"; 
and  the  third  in  April  of  next  year  by  Prof.  James  Stalker,  of  Aberdeen,  on 
"Religious  Psychology." 

5.  That  the  Centennial  Anniversary  of  the  Founding  of  the  Seminary  was 
happily  celebrated  in  October  by  the  two  controlling  Synods,  with  a  very  large 
attendance  of  the  alumni  and  other  friends  of  the  institution,  and  that  the  occa- 
sion was  further  marked  by  the  gift  of  $10,000  to  the  endowment  by  Mrs. 
Nettie  F.  McCormick,  in  memory  of  her  husband,  Cyrus  H.  McCormick,  Sr.,  and 
by  the  payment  in  full,  far  ahead  of  the  time  specified,  of  the  balance  of  the 
fund  pledged  by  Mr.  George  W.  Watts,  the  President  of  the  Board,  for  the 
establishment  of  the  Walter  W.  Moore  Foundation. 

6.  That    an    additional    professdr's    residence    has    been    erected    on    the 


APPENDIX  139 

campus,  thus  completing  the  group  of  ten  substantial  buildings  devoted  to  the 
uses  of  the  institution. 

7.  That  the  finances  of  the  Seminary  are  in  a  thoroughly  healthy  condi- 
tion, but  that  in  view  of  the  fact  that  the  number  of  students  has  nearly 
doubled  in  the  last  ten  years,  there  is  need  of  a  large  increase  in  the  Scholarship 
Funds  for  the  aid  of  worthy  and  needy  students  in  meeting  their  necessary 
expenses.

2.      REPORT   OF   COLUMBIA    SEMINARY. 

The  Directors  of  Columbia  Theological  Seminary,  with  grateful  acknowledg- 
ment to  the  great  Head  of  the  Church  for  His  signal  blessings  upon  the  Seminary 
during  the  past  session,  would  respectfully  report  to  the  General  Assembly : 

1.  That  the  enrollment  of  students  is  larger  than  for  several  years  past. 
That  of  these  thirty  students  five  are  in  the  Senior  Class,  three  in  the  Middle 
Class,  twelve  in  the  Junior  Class,  and  ten  special. 

2.  That  practically  all  of  the  students  have  applied  themselves  and  attained 
a  certain  degree  of  success.  That  the  student  body  as  a  whole  are  above  the 
average  in  mental  equipment  and  moral  force. 

3.  That  the  Seminary  records  with  a  deep  sense  of  loss  the  death  of  the 
Rev.  R.  G.  Pearson,  Professor  of  the  English  Bible  and  Practical  Theology. 

4.  That  the  Seminary  had  during  the  past  session  seven  professors  in  its 
faculty;  all  of  whom  have  done  splendid  work  and  have  commanded  the  re- 
spect, admiration  and  love  of  the  student  body. 

5.  That  the  following  young  gentlemen  were  given  the  degree  of  Bach- 
elor or  Divinity : 

C.  D.  Holland,  John  McSween  and  F.  R.  Riddle. 

And  the  following  were  given  certificates  for  efficiency: 

Ovid  Pullen  and  W.  B.  Chandler. 

6.  That  the  Seminary  has  been  favored  with  a  course  of  six  lectures  on 
"Problems  of  Missions  Illustrated  in  Lives  of  Great  Missionary  Leaders,"  by 
R.  E.  Speer,  D.  D. 

7.  That  in  a  recent  campaign  in  the  Synod  of  South  Carolina  for  the  en- 
dowment funds  of  three  Presbyterian  institutions  the  Seminary  will  realize,  we 
hope,  approximately  forty  thousand  dollars,  which  will  very  greatly  help  in 
meeting  the  demands  of  a  larger  usefulness. 

8.  That  it  is  the  belief  of  the  Board  of  Directors  that  the  Seminary  has 
an  outlook  for  greater  usefulness  and  better  equipment  than  for  many  years 
past. 

9.  That  President  Whaling  and  the  entire  faculty  are  enthusiastically  en- 
gaged in  the  work  of  the  Seminary.

3.      REPORT  OF  THE  DIVINITY  SCHOOL  OF  THE  SOUTHWESTERN  PRESBYTERIAN 

UNIVERSITY. 

To  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States,  in 
Session  at  Atlanta,  Ga.,  May,  1913: 

The  Executive  Committee  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of  Southwestern 
Presbyterian  University  would  respectfully  make  to  the  General  Assembly  the 
following  report  of  the  Divinity  School  of  the  University : 

Since  the  University  Board  of  Directors  does  not  hold  its  annual  meeting 
until  June,  this  report  is  made  every  year  by  the  Executive  Committee. 

THE  YEAR. 

1.  A  year  of  unusual  prosperity  in  many  ways  has  been  saddened  by  the 
death  on  November  26,  1912,  of  the  Professor  of  Theology,  Rev.  John  William 
Rosebro,  D.  D.  During  his  five  years'  labor  here,  Dr.  Rosebro  had  entrenched 
himself  in  the  esteem  of  colleagues,  endeared  himself  to  students,  and  proved 
in  many  ways  his  fitness  for  the  important  work  of  his  Chair.  The  influences  of 
his  gentle  personality  will  long  be  remembered. 

2.  Rev.  A.  R.  Shaw,  D.  D.,  of  Charlotte,  N.  C,  has  been  elected  to  the 
vacant  Chair,  and  will  assume  his  new  duties  at  the  beginning  of  the  session 
of  1913-1914.  Dr.  Shaw  comes  to  us  with  the  strong  commendation  of  hosts 
of  friends  in  the  Synod  of  North  Carolina  and  elsewhere.  His  natural  aptitude 
and  marked  ability  in  theological  thought  and  teaching  have  long  been  a  matter 
of  wide  comment. 

3.  Meanwhile,  the  work  of  the  Chair  has  been  performed  ably  and  with 
marked  acceptability  to  students  and  all  by  Rev.  R.  E.  Fulton,  Professor  of 
Ecclesiastical  History,  Professor  Fulton  having  been  relieved  of  an  equivalent 
amount  of  other  work  until  the  close  of  the  session. 

4.  Rev.  Robert  Price,  D.  D.,  Professor  in  the  Divinity  School  since  its 
beginning,  when  he  was  a  colleague  of  President  Wilson's  father,  was  in  June 
made  Professor  Emeritus  in  recognition  of  his  long  and  able  service.  Dr. 
Price  enjoys  the  unbounded  respect  and  the  warm  affection  of  Directors,  Faculty, 
Students  and  Community. 

5.  Distinct  regular  courses  in  Christian  Ethics  and  Sociology,  and  in  Music 
and  Voice  Culture  are  now  required  of  all  students  in  the  Divinity  School. 

6.  Valuable  additions  to  the  library,  of  especial  service  to  the  theological 
students,  have  come  from  the  libraries  of  the  late  Dr.  J.  C.  Barr,  of  Charleston, 
W.  Va. ;  the  late  Dr.  William  Dinwiddie,  of  Greenwood,  Va. ;  the  late  Dr.  J.  W. 
Rosebro,  of  the  University;  and  from  W.  D.  Duffie,  of  Columbia,  S.  C,  a  total 
of  more  than  1,200  volumes. 

7.  A  quiet  campaign  is  being  carried  on  to  secure  funds  for  a  new  dormi- 
tory to  replace  the  one  now  in  use.  The  progress  made  is  encouraging,  and 
definite  announcement  will  be  made  in  due  time. 

THE   DIVINITY   SCHOOL   AND  THE   UNIVERSITY. 

The  organization  of  the  Southwestern  Presbyterian  University  is  unique, 
in  that  it  comprises  in  one  place,  under  one  board  of  directors,  with  one 
faculty  and  one  student  body,  an  undergraduate  college  and  a  theological 
seminary,  distinct  only  in  courses  of  study.  The  college  courses  lead  to  the 
degrees  of  Bachelor  of  Arts  and  Bachelor  of  Science  in  four  years,  and  Master 


142  APPENDIX 

of  Arts  in  five  years ;  while  a  college  course  of  three  years,  sharply  restricted 
to  the  most  suitable  studies,  followed  by  the  full  two  years'  course  of  the 
Divinity  School,  leads  to  the  degrees  of  Bachelor  of  Arts  and  Bachelor  of 
Divinity,  conferred  together  at  the  completion  of  the  full  five  years'  course. 

The  two  years'  divinity  course  is  a  fair  equivalent  of  the  more  usual 
three  years'  course,  because  of  the  longer  session  at  Southwestern,  the  greater 
number  of  lectures  a  week,  and  the  full  three  years'  course  in  English  Bible 
in  the  University's  college  classes,  which  is  taken  by  students  of  the  Divinity 
School,  and  should  be  included  in  estimates  of  the  theological  course.  The 
Senior  year  of  the  course  includes  a  study  of  the  history  and  methods  of 
Sunday  School  work.

University,  which  now  amount  to  over  $300,000,  in  addition  to  the  plant,  valued 
at  not  less  than  $100,000.  The  scholarship  funds  of  the  University  enable  it  to 
aid  students  in  the  Divinity  School  who  need  the  assistance. 

In  addition  to  frequent  addresses  from  members  of  the  University  Faculty,

The  Board  of  Trustees  of  Austin  Theological  Seminary  respectfully  pre- 
sents the  following  report  to  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church 
in  the  United  States  for  the  year  ending  May  8,  1913 : 

I.  We  desire  to  make  acknowledgement  of  the  abundant  favor  of  the 
Great  Head  of  the  Church  manifested  to  faculty  and  students  and  also  in  the 
way  of  material  prosperity  of  the  institution  during  the  year  which  has  just 
closed.  In  many  respects,  this  has  been  the  best  year  in  the  history  of  the 
institution. 


146  APPENDIX 

//.  Students. — ^Twenty-seven  candidates  for  the  ministry  have  been  en- 
rolled during  the  year;  these,  together  with  the  addition  of  three  young  ladies, 
who  have  studied  for  special  preparation  in  mission  work,  make  a  total  attend- 
ance of  thirty  on  the  instructions  of  the  institution  during  the  year.  In  addi- 
tion to  this,  professors  of  the  Seminary  have  taught  Bible  classes  in  the  Uni- 
versiy  of  Texas,  with  a  total  attendance  of  thirty-five  in  these  classes.

Shigh. 

IV.  Seminary  Bible  Course  Credited  Towards  Degree  in  University  of 
Texas. — The  University  of  Texas  has  made  provisions  whereby  credits  are  al- 
lowed on  degree  courses  in  that  institution  for  students  who  take  the  English 
Bible  Course  as  presented  by  Seminary  professors.  This  gives  the  Seminary  an 
opportunity  that  promises  splendid  results  for  good  in  the  future.

There  is  not,  however,  a  sufficient  permanent  endowment  at  present  to  meet  all 
the  needs  of  the  institution,  but  a  recent  addition  of  about  $10,000.00  has  given 
much  relief  to  the  financial  situation.  The  total  assets  of  the  Seminary  are  ap- 
proximately $215,000.00.

XII.    REPORT   OF  THE   EXECUTIVE   COMMISSION   OF  THE   ALLI- 
ANCE  OF  THE   REFORMED   CHURCHES   THROUGHOUT   THE 
WORLD  HOLDING  THE  PRESBYTERIAN  SYSTEM,  WEST- 
ERN (AMERICAN)  SECTION,  FOR  THE  YEAR  1912-13. 
To  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.  S. : 

Dear  Brethren: — The  Western  Section  of  the  Executive  Commission  of 
the  Alliance  of  the  Reformed  Churches  throughout  the  World  holding  the 
Presbyterian  System  respectfully  presents  its  Annual  Report  for  the  year  1912- 
1913,  under  the  following  heads : 

I.  Meetings.— The  Commission  during  the  year  1912-1913  held  one  meeting, 
the  place  being  the  Erskine  Presbyterian  Church,  Montreal,  Canada,  and  the 
time  February  18  to  20,  1913.  The  Chairman,  the  Rev.  Prin.  John  Scrimger, 
D.  D.,  presided,  and  the  Commission  was  honored  by  a  reception  given  at  the 
American  Presbyterian  Church  of  the  city,  the  Rev.  Dr.  Robert  Johnston,  pastor. 


APPENDIX  149 

The  meeting  at  Montreal  was  characterized  by  decided  interest  in  the  proceedings 
on  the  part  of  the  Presbyterians  of  the  city,  and  will  rank  as  one  of  the  most 
profitable  and  inspiring  in  the  history  of  the  Western  Section. 

2.  OMcers. — The  officers  for  the  present  year  are:  Chairman,  Rev.  R.  H. 
Fleming,  D.  D. ;  Vice-Chairmen,  E.  W.  C.  Humphrey,  Esq.,  and  Rev.  Philip 
Vollmer,  D.  D. ;  Recording  Secretary,  Rev.  J.  C.  Scouller,  D.  D. ;  Treasurer, 
Mr.  Philip  E.  Howard ;  Chairman  Executive  Committee,  General  R.  E.  Prime. 
The  American  Secretary  of  the  Alliance  is  Secretary  of  the  Western  Section, 
and  completes,  next  June,  twenty-five  years  of  service. 

3.  Necrology. — The  Rev.  Thomas  Patton  Stevenson,  D.  D.,  LL.  D.,  one 
of  the  oldest  members  of  the  Executive  Commission,  died  October  i,  1912.  The 
son  of  a  minister,  after  graduation  from  college  and  seminary,  he  was  ordained 
and  installed  pastor  of  the  First  Church  of  the  Covenanters  in  Philadelphia, 
Pa.,  May,  1863,  and  in  this  pastorate  he  continued  until  the  time  of  his  death 
in  the  seventy-fifth  year  of  his  age.  He  was  one  of  the  editors  of  the  Christian 
Statesman  from  1867,  and  was  Moderator  of  the  Synod  of  the  Reformed  Pres- 
byterian Church  in  1881.  A  man  of  unusual  intellectual  ability,  he  was  a  highly 
esteemed  and  beloved  member  of  this  body  for  many  years. 

4.  Evangelistic  Movements. — The  Committee  on  Co-operation  in  Evangel- 
istic Work  has  been  in  communication  with  the  Committees  entrusted  with 
similar  work  in  the  United  States,  Canada,  Great  Britain  and  on  the  Continent 
of  Europe.  Arrangements  are  being  completed  for  a  conference  of  persons 
interested  in  Evangelism,  at  Aberdeen,  Scotland,  during  the  sessions  of  the 
Tenth  Council  of  the  World  Alliance.  The  parties  with  whom  correspondence 
has  been  had  reported  a  deep  sense  of  the  need  for  revival  in  all  the  Churches 
of  the  Alliance,  and  also  in  other  Churches  connected  with  them  by  the  com- 
mon bond  of  Evangelical  Doctrine. 

It  gives  the  Commission  pleasure  to  report  that  the  Australasian  tour  of  the 
Chapman-Alexander  Evangelistic  Mission  has  been  very  successful.  Letters 
have  been  received  from  committees  of  the  Australian  and  New  Zealand 
Christian  Churches,  appreciative  of  the  services  of  the  Rev.  Dr.  J.  Wilbur 
Chapman,  and  indicating  their  desire  to  have  share  in  whatever  further  co- 
operative movements  may  be  undertaken.  It  is  further  understood  that  arrange- 
ments have  been  made  for  both  Dr.  Chapman  and  Mr.  Alexander  to  be  in 
Scotland  during  the  fall  of  the  present  year. 

Within  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Western  Section,  particularly  in  the  United 
States  and  Canada,  there  has  been  no  widespread  or  extraordinary  revival 
during  the  year.  Faithful  work  has  been  accomplished,  however,  by  the 
Churches,  the  Presbyteries,  and  the  various  agencies  of  the  Church  directly 
connected  with  the  work  of  Evangelism. 

It  is  also  worthy  of  note  that  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ 
in  America  appointed  at  its  meeting  in  Chicago,  111.,  December,  1912,  a  Com- 
mission on  Evangelism,  with  representatives  of  thirty  denominations  thereon, 
the  Chairman  being  the  Rev.  William  H.  Roberts.  The  Federal  Council 
sounded  a  high  note  for  evangelistic  work,  officially  acknowledging  Evangelism 
to  be  the  Supreme  Mission  of  the  Church. 

The  following  resolutions  are  submitted  for  adoption : 

(i)     That  pastors  of  Churches  represented  in  the  Alliance  be  urged  to  present 


150  APPENDIX 

more  earnestly  and  more  constantly,  both  in  their  preaching  and  in  personal 
conversation  with  members  of  their  congregations,  the  vital  necessity  of  repent- 
ance and  faith  in  Jesus  Christ  as  the  conditions  of  pardon  and  eternal  life. 

(2)  That  the  Foreign  Missionares  of  Boards  represented  in  the  Alliance 
be  urged  to  consider  prayerfully  whether  or  not  they  are  placing  an  undue 
emphasis  on  the  educational  and  other  subsidiary  branches  of  their  work  at 
the  expense  of  Exangelism,  that  is,  the  preaching  of  the  Gospel  with  the  imme- 
diate object  of  winning  souls  to  Christ,  as  their  only  Saviour  from  sin. 

5.  Work  in  Europe. — The  problems  connected  with  the  religious  situation 
on  the  Continent  of  Europe  are  too  large  for  any  discussion  of  them  in  a  brief 
report.  Romanism,  Rationalism,  State-Churchism  and  Evangelicalism  are  strug- 
gling there  in  a  mighty  contention.  The  situation  is  also  affected  by  the  three 
great  racial  divisions  which  exist,  viz.,  the  Latin,  the  Teutonic  and  the  Slavic. 
The  Latin  peoples  have  been  in  the  past  largely  of  the  Roman  Catholic  Church ; 
the  majority  of  the  Teutonic  people  are  Protestant,  and  the  Slavic  nations,  to  a 
very  great  extent,  are  connected  with  the  Greek  Catholic  Church.  We  note 
concisely  the  religious  conditions  in  certain  European  countries. 

Spain. — This  land  religiously  is  in  a  lamentable  condition.  There  are  only 
about  15,000  Protestants  in  a  population  of  27,000,000.  The  main  characteristics 
of  the  religious  life  of  the  people  are  the  absence  of  spirituality  and  the 
prevalence  of  formalism. 

France. — In  France  there  has  been  a  union  of  the  mediating  party  of  the 
Huguenot  Church  with  the  Rationalistic  wing.  The  evangelical  part  of  the 
Reformed  Church,  however,  has  refused  to  enter  into  this  combination.  It  is 
noteworthy  that  the  Evangelicals  are  raising  more  money  than  when  they  were 
partly  supported  by  the  State.  Numerous  openings  for  work  make,  however, 
a  great  need  for  assistance  from  the  strong  Churches  of  the  Alliance.  As  to 
the  Roman  Catholic  Church,  accredited  reports  show  that  the  number  of  active 
Catholics  in  France  is  between  4,000,000  and  5,000,000.  The  greatest  religious 
problem  in  Europe  today  has  to  do  with  the  30,000,000  of  French  people  who 
are  not  connected  directly  with  any  Christian  Church. 

Germany. — In  this  country  there  is  a  great  estrangement  between  the  Clerical 
party,  which  represents  Catholicism,  and  the  government.  The  Evangelicals 
are  drawing  closer  together,  and  the  so-called  Society  Movement  is  quietly 
leavening  Germany  with  spiritual  power.  Disestablishment,  formerly  not  men- 
tioned, is  now  openly  debated.  The  general  conditions  are  ripe  for  a  forward 
movement  in  the  direction  of  greater  spirituality  and  more  pronounced  evan- 
gelicalism. 

Bohemia. — The  Bohemian  Reformed  Church  is  continuing  its  preparations 
for  the  Five-hundredth  Anniversary,  in  1915,  of  the  martyrdom  of  John  Huss. 
This  will  be  a  great  occasion  for  Bohemia,  and  also  a  valuable  opportunity  for 
Protestants  in  other  lands  to  strengthen  the  movement  for  which  that  distin- 
guished Reformer  gave  his  life. 

Italy. — The  Waldensian  Church  continues  its  aggressive  work  for  a  pure 
faith  in  this  historic  land.  This  year  this  most  ancient  Church  of  the  Alliance 
is  represented  in  America  by  the  Rev.  Prof.  Giovanni  Luzzi,  and  the  Church  is 
cordially  commended  to  the  prayers  and  the  generosity  of  the  Churches  of  the 
Western  Section. 


APPENDIX  151 

Hungary. — An  interesting  book  on  the  Hungarian  Reformed  Church  has 
appeared  by  Prof.  Doumergue,  of  Montauban,  entitled  Calvinistic  Hungary. 
The  work  takes  up  the  great  names  and  great  epochs  of  Hungarian  Calvinism, 
and  closes  with  a  description  of  the  present  condition  of  the  Hungarian  Church. 
Of  the  five  theological  faculties  it  is  said  that  two  are  Orthodox,  two  are 
Rationalistic  and  one  is  Mystical.  The  greatest  danger  to  the  Hungarian  Church, 
with  its  3,000,000  adherents,  is  its  isolation  in  Eastern  Europe. 

English  Summer  Services. — The  ninth  season  of  the  American  Church  at 
The  Hague,  Holland,  was  one  of  the  most  successful  seasons  thus  far  enjoyed. 
The  minister  in  charge  was  the  Rev.  Taber  Knox,  pastor  of  the  Reformed 
Church  at  Warwick,  N.  Y.  The  average  attendance  at  the  services,  which  were 
held  during  the  months  of  July  and  August,  1912,  was  loi.  The  third  season  at 
Zurich,  Switzerland,  was  much  more  encouraging  and  successful  than  the 
previous  years.  This  was  due  to  the  fact  that  the  services  were  held  in  the 
Cathedral,  which  belongs  to  the  State  Church  of  Zurich,  which  is  Reformed. 
Some  persons  present  at  the  services  were  from  the  four  quarters  of  the  globe, 
but  the  majority  was  composed  of  American  tourists.  The  services  were  in 
charge  of  the  Rev.  James  I.  Good,  D.  D.  The  Church  organized  in  1907  at 
Frankfort-on-the-Main  was  served  during  the  year  1912  by  Rev.  Stewart 
Bready,  and  during  the  present  year  will  be  served  by  the  Rev.  J.  Canfield 
Vandoren.  The  congregation  receives  aid  from  the  Committee  on  Work  in 
Europe  of  the  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.  S.  A. 
Particular  attention  should  be  given  to  the  need  of  preachers  for  American 
residents  on  the  Continent.  In  Berlin  there  are  10,000,  and  in  Paris  30,000 
Americans. 

The  work  in  the  Latin  Quarter  of  Paris  is  in  charge  of  the  Rev.  Ernest  W. 
ShurtlefF,  D.  D.,  and  is  as  invaluable  as  it  is  successful  as  an  agency  in  caring 
for  the  spiritual  interests  of  the  many  American  students  who  reside  in  the 
French  metropolis. 

Summer  services  should  be  established  at  other  places,  such  as  Munich  and 
Carlsbad.  The  cost  would  be  so  small  and  the  blessings  coming  from  them  so 
great,  that  the  Churches  of  the  Presbyterian  family  should  give  far  more  atten- 
tion to  this  European  field  than  is  now  the  case. 

6.  Sabbath  School  Work. — The  net  gain  for  all  the  Churches  of  the  West- 
ern section,  officers,  teachers  and  pupils,  during  the  year  is  34,000,  the  total  for 
North  America  being  now  2,426,532.  The  full  significance  of  this  seemingly 
small  gain  is  realized  when  the  conditions  are  indicated  under  which  it  has  been 
achieved.  There  have  been  many  barriers  in  the  way  of  the  increase  of  Sunday 
School  membership,  among  which  are  to  be  noted  the  neglect  of  home  instruc- 
tion, the  increasing  use  of  the  Sabbath  as  a  day  of  travel,  recreation  and 
social  visiting,  and  the  falling  off  in  the  attendance  of  children  upon  public 
worship. 

Other  profound  and  aggressive  causes  for  the  present  crisis  in  Sabbath 
School  work  are  briefly  mentioned. 

The  fact  that  only  40  per  cent,  of  Sabbath  School  pupils  are  brought  ever 
to  confess  and  accept  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  or  to  become  communicants  in  the 
Church. 

The  alarming  increase  of  Sabbath  desecration  in  the  United  States,  though 


152  APPENDIX 

we  are  grateful  to  report  this  spread  of  the  violation  of  the  Sabbath  does  not 
extend  to  Canada,  for  we  know  the  Sabbath  School  cannot  survive  the  destruc- 
tion of  the  Sabbath  day. 

The  concentration  of  our  coming  millions  of  immigrants  in  our  Eastern 
States  and  cities. 

And  the  race  problem  in  the  South. 

The  Executive  Commission,  Western  Section,  has  requested  its  Chairman 
and  Secretary  to  convey  to  the  General  Assemblies  and  Synods  of  its  constit- 
uent Churches  the  deep  concern  of  the  Western  Section  concerning  the  present 
conditions  of  the  Sabbath  School  work  in  the  Churches,  especially  concerning 
the  spiritual  life  and  fruitage  of  the  Sabbath  Schools 

With  that  end  in  view,  it  earnestly  requests  your  venerable  body  to  issue  a 
solemn  call  to  all  officers,  teachers  and  scholars  of  your  Sabbath  Schools : 

(i)  To  seek  a  general  outpouring  of  the  Holy  Spirit  upon  the  Churches 
and  Sabbath  Schools  of  the  American  Section.  Our  only  hope  for  a  safe  issue 
from  the  present  condition  is  a  genuine  revival  in  our  Bible  schools. 

(2)  To  call  upon  all  pastors  and  Sabbath  School  workers  to  give  them- 
selves to  extraordinary  prayer,  with  great  and  sincere  searchings  of  heart  and 
complete  separation  from  the  world,  and  renewed  and  entire  consecration  to 
the  work  of  immediately  bringing  to  Christ  the  hundreds  of  thousands  of  the 
unconverted  in  our  Sabbath  Schools. 

7.  Divorce. — The  subject  of  Divorce  in  the  Province  of  Quebec,  Canada, 
at  the  last  meeting  of  the  Alliance,  was  presented  in  a  very  able  report  by  the 
Rev.  Principal  John  Scrimger,  D.  D.  The  general  situation  in  Canada  is  widely 
different  from  what  it  is  in  the  United  States.  The  matter  of  divorce  is  subject 
to  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Federal  Parliament,  except  in  the  Province  of  New 
Brunswick,  and  Parliament,  though  having  the  power  to  do  so,  has  never  passed 
any  general  Act  providing  for  divorces  by  any  recognized  procedure.  It  has, 
however,  raised  petitions  for  special  or  private  Acts,  in  favor  of  divorce,  affecting 
individual  cases,  and  has  generally  granted  them,  when  satisfied  that  there  was 
reasonable  cause. 

The  attitude  of  the  Roman  Catholic  Church  in  Quebec  makes  it  unlikely 
that  any  political  party  will  deal  with  the  subject  of  divorce  as  long  as  it  can 
be  avoided.  That  Church  permits  of  judicial  separations,  which  puts  an  end  to 
all  claims  of  the  one  party  over  the  other,  but  does  not  give  to  either  of  the 
parties  the  right  to  marry  again.  On  the  other  hand,  it  is  to  be  said  that  the 
Roman  Catholic  Church,  while  refusing  divorce  on  any  moral  ground  whatever, 
virtually  grants  it  under  another  name  on  technical  grounds.  This  is  done 
under  the  provisions  of  the  Canon  Law  relating  to  "prohibited  degrees." 
These  prohibited  degrees  are  far  more  extensive  than  those  laid  down  by  any 
Protestant  Church.  They  include  all  cousins,  up  to  the  fourth  remove,  and  in 
addition  purely  spiritual  relationships,  such  as  godfathers  and  godmothers. 
Persons  desiring  divorce  and  distantly  related  can  appeal  to  this  canon  law, 
through  application  to  the  Bishop  of  the  Diocese  in  which  they  live,  and  he  can 
declare  the  marriage  to  be  null  and  void.  After  the  Bishop  has  granted  a 
decree  of  divorce,  this  is  then  presented  for  confirmation  to  the  civil  court,  and 
the  marriage  is  annulled  accordingly.    It  is  not  likely  that  this  unfortunate  situ- 


APPENDIX  153 

ation  will  be  remedied  until  the  attitude  of  the  Canandian  auhorities  toward  the 
claims  of  the  Roman  Catholic  Church  has  been  wholly  revised. 

8.  Social  Service. — One  of  the  great  movements  of  the  present  day  is  the 
movement  for  Social  Service.  The  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ 
in  America  has  had  for  four  j'ears  a  Commission  on  this  subject,  which  has  been 
actively  at  work,  and  which  has  likewise  been  in  touch  with  the  Social  Service 
Agencies  of  a  number  of  the  Christian  denominations,  notably  the  Social  Service 
Department  of  the  Home  Mission  Board  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the 
U.  S.  A.  The  Federal  Council,  at  its  recent  meeting  in  Chicago,  approved  of  a 
platform  for  Social  Service,  which  was  submitted  to  the  recent  meeting  of  the 
Western  Section  at  Montreal,  Canada,  and  the  Section  took  the  following  action 
thereupon : 

Resolved,  That  the  Executive  Commission,  Western  Section,  expresses  its 
sympathy  with  the  purposes  of  the  Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ  in 
America,  and  its  interest  in  the  progress  of  the  work  of  the  Council.  We  re- 
joice in  every  movement  which  gives  expression  to  the  spiritual  unity  of  the 
disciples  of  Jesus  Christ,  and  to  co-operation  by  them  in  work  which  can  better 
be  done  in  union  than  in  separation. 

The  Executive  Commission,  Western  Section,  also  approves  of  the  recog- 
nition by  the  Council  of  some  of  those  social  needs  which  the  Christian  Church 
has  so  long  pointed  out,  and  called  on  men,  in  the  name  of  God,  to  supply. 
At  the  same  time,  the  Section  expresses  its  conviction  that  the  power  of  the 
Gospel  as  the  source  of  all  true  social  progress  should  have  been  more  clearly 
recognized  by  the  Council  in  its  discussion  of  social  service. 

9.  Education. — The  Western  Section  has  given  considerable  attention, 
through  its  Committee  on  Education,  to  the  educational  interests  of  the  nations 
to  which  it  is  religiously  related.  It  has  presented  to  it,  from  year  to  year,  the 
results  of  careful  inquiry  into  the  processes  of  education  now  under  way  in 
both  countries,  and  is  glad  to  announce  that  they  are  becoming  more  and  more 
sympathetic  with  the  interests  of  evangelical  religion.  Materialism  appears  to 
be  a  back  number  at  present.  "The  highest  category  of  the  best  twentieth- 
century  thinking  is  personality,  and  personality  in  philosophy  means  theism  in 
thelogy  and  character  in  ethics.  And  this  deep-toned  note  of  intellectual  inter- 
pretation lends  itself  in  happiest  accord  to  the  fundamental  Chrisian  attitude 
of  faith  in  the  true  and  living  God."  The  following  resolutions  in  connection 
with  Education  were  adopted  by  the  Western  Section  at  Montreal : 

(i)  That  the  Churches  represented  in  this  Section  regard  a  merely  secular 
education,  under  any  auspices  whatsoever,  as  perilous  to  the  community,  and  as 
an  incomplete,  and  therefore  a  misleading,  view  of  the  truth  which  it  presents. 

(2)  That  we  express  our  profound  sense  of  the  value  to  the  Church  and 
to  the  State  of  those  schools  of  every  grade,  which,  out  of  devotion  to  Evan- 
gelical truth,  have  been  founded  and  developed  by  the  Christian  Church,  and, 
so  long  as  they  are  true  to  the  faith  in  which  they  were  founded,  we  commend 
them  to  the  continued  care  and  liberal  support  of  all  the  Churches. 

(3)  That  we  recognize  the  growing  importance  of  educational  institutions 
under  State  control,  and  we  appreciate  the  difficulties  which  interfere  with  a 
satisfactory  accomplishment  of  their  great  work,  and,  therefore,  we  approve 
and  commend   all  efforts  which  the  Churches  are  making  to  put  before  the 


154 


APPENDIX 


student  body  in  such  institutions   the  call  of   Christ  and  the  opportunities  of 
Christian  service. 

(4)  That  we  affirm  our  confidence  in  the  catechetical  method  in  the  relig- 
ious instruction  of  our  youth,  and  call  upon  all  our  Churches  to  be  diligent  in 
inculcating  in  the  minds  of  the  children  the  great  fundamental  and  historical 
elements  of  the  faith  once  delivered  to  the  saints. 

(5)  That,  above  all,  we  express  our  firm  conviction  and  devout  faith  that 
the  Word  of  God  is  the  ultimate  standard  of  all  knowledge  that  makes  wise 
unto  salvation,  and  that  His  Son,  Jesus  Christ  our  Lord,  is  at  once  the  centre 
and  the  circumference  of  all  our  knowing,  in  ignorance  of  whom  any  perspective 
of  the  truth  is  distorted  and  incomplete. 

ID.  Foreign  Missions. — The  year  has  been  one  of  notable  advance  and 
much  encouragement.  Never  before  have  the  opportunities  been  so  great  and 
the  tokens  of  divine  blessing  so  numerous,  and  yet  anxieties  have  been  not  a 
few.  Grave  questions  of  world-wide  importance  have  arisen,  and  the  greatest  of 
them  is  the  situation  in  China,  created  by  the  Chinese  revolution.  This  situation, 
however,  will  be  dealt  with  in  detail  by  the  several  denominational  Mission 
Boards.    We  note  other  special  matters  as  follows : 

A  call  to  prayer  for  the  Moslem  world  was  issued  for  October  16,  1912, 
and  was  largely  observed.  It  has  to  do  with  a  problem  which  appeals  to  the 
heart  of  the  Church  as  it  never  did  before.  On  the  one  hand,  the  peril  of 
Moslem  aggression  in  Africa  is  becoming  more  manifest,  while  on  the  other  the 
large  growth  of  the  circulation  of  the  Bible  among  Mohammedans  and  the 
increase  of  converts  gives  ground  for  encouragement. 

The  war  between  the  Balkan  States  and  Turkey  gave  an  opportunity  of 
which  advantage  was  taken  to  give  the  Turkish  people  to  understand  that  the 
Christian  people  of  America,  who  have  long  been  doing  missionary  work  among 
them,  while  neutral,  so  far  as  the  conduct  of  the  war  was  concerned,  were, 
nevertheless,  ready  to  respond  promptly  to  the  need  of  the  sick  and  suffering 
Turkish  soldiers.  The  missionaries  in  the  Turkish  Empire  were  foremost  in 
kindly  ministrations  to  the  sick  and  wounded  combatants,  and  also  to  the  non- 
combatants  who  were  impoverished  by  the  ravages  of  the  war. 

The  trying  situation  which  arose  in  Korea  has  been  handled  tactfully,  and 
we  have  reason  to  believe  effectively,  by  the  representatives  of  the  Boards 
having  work  in  that  country.  The  Korean  conspiracy  case  is  in  its  details  well 
known  to  the  Christian  public,  and  it  is  not  necessary  to  make  any  statement 
in  connection  with  it.  It  is  felt,  however,  that  the  call  to  prayer  which  was 
issued  for  the  Korean  Christians  has  been  heard  by  Almighty  God,  and  it  is 
suggested  that  further  prayer  and  supplication  be  made  to  Him,  in  particular  for 
the  Emperor  of  Japan,  and  all  those  officials  in  high  places  who  carry  out 
the  imperial  commands,  so  that  righteousness,  mercy  and  peace  shall  be  ex 
tended  to  every  subject,  and  to  the  remotest  bounds  of  the  Empire. 

Special  attention  is  drawn  to  the  strength  of  non-Christian  religions  in  the 
United  States  and  Canada,  and  the  duty  of  the  Church  to  their  adherents.  The 
non-Christian  faiths  prevalent  in  these  American  lands  can  be  divided  into 
three  classes:  Unchristian,  Antichristian,  and  Non-Christian.  Under  Unchris- 
tian forces  can  be  included  the  population  that  acknowledges  no  religious  faith, 
also   Hebrews,  Mormons,   Christian    Scientists  and    Spiritualists.     Under   Anti- 


APPENDIX  ISS 

christian  bodies  are  included  those  forms  of  Socialism,  represented  by  organi- 
zations which  are  antagonistic  to  all  religion.  Under  Non-Christian  bodies  are 
listed  Buddhism  and  Mohammedanism.  It  is  significant  that  Mohammedanism 
reports  twenty-four  organizations  and  1,280  adherents  in  the  United  States, 
taught  by  trained  leaders.  Buddhism  is  aggressively  propagating  itself  in 
Seattle,  San  Francisco  and  Los  Angeles.  In  addition,  thousands  of  Hindus 
have  come  to  the  United  States,  and  the  worship  of  Krishna  has  been  established 
at  Los  Angeles.  The  number  of  Japanese  in  the  United  States  is  estimated  at 
about  130,000,  and  the  number  of  Chinese  at  about  300,000.  Orientals  in  Canada 
number  about  40,000,  and  the  non-Christian  American  Indians  in  the  United 
States  number  140,000  out  of  a  total  of  about  300,545. 

There  should  be,  it  is  evident,  a  more  far-reaching  missionary  propaganda 
at  home  in  behalf  of  foreign  missions.  The  situation  demands  concerted  and 
aggressive  action. 

II.  Home  Missions. — The  population  of  the  United  States  is  now  esti- 
mated at  95,000,000,  while  Canada  has  not  less  than  7,000,000,  making  a  total  for 
the  two  nations  of  about  102,000,000.  The  Protestant  Churches  in  these  two 
countries  have  a  membership  of  23,000,000,  while  the  Roman  Catholics  number 
14,000,000.  In  order  to  effectively  handle  the  situation,  a  few  years  ago  the 
Evangelical  Churches  organized  what  is  known  as  the  Home  Mission  Council. 
This  Council  comprises  about  thirty  Boards  and  Agencies,  and  represents 
nearly  17,000,000  communicants.  The  most  important  and  practical  work  accom- 
plished by  it  was  the  inauguration  and  observance  of  Home  Mission  Week  in 
November  of  1912,  which  was  very  generally  observed  and  aroused  great  en- 
thusiasm throughout  the  country.  It  will  probably  be  made  a  permanent  annual 
feature. 

The  Presbyterian  and  Reformed  Churches  are  seeking  to  meet  their  share 
of  the  responsibility  of  winning  our  country  for  Christ,  as  shown  by  the  fol- 
lowing figures :

12.     Foreign   Seaports. — The  Western    Section   has  had   for  some  years   a 

Committee  on   the  Religious   Needs   of   Americans   and    Europeans   in    foreign 

seaports.    We  are  glad  to  report  that  the  Annual  Conference  on  Mission  Boards 

for  North  America  is  handling  this  whole  matter  on  its  practical  side,  and  con- 


IS6  APPENDIX 

sidering  the  limited  resources  in  hand,  with  many  important  results.  At 
Yokohama,  Japan,  a  handsome  church  building,  costing  over  $40,000,  has  been 
erected.  The  Union  Church  in  Kobe,  Japan,  has  been  instrumental  in  the  ac- 
complishment of  much  good,  and  during  a  recent  visit  of  the  United  States 
fleet  many  young  men  came  out  for  Christ.  Work  is  also  being  earnestly 
pushed  in  supplying  the  needs  of  Peking,  China,  and  Rio  de  Janeiro,  Brazil. 
Further,  missionary  libraries  have  been  placed  in  the  ships  of  the  Pacific 
steamship  lines,  and  also  on  the  lines  between  Great  Britain  and  India.  It  is 
earnestly  hoped  that  financial  aid  will  be  given  to  this  important  cause  through 
the  several  missionary  boards. 

13.  Church  History. — The  Committee  on  Presbyterian  and  Reformed 
Church  History  has  given  careful  attention  to  its  work,  and  annually  submits 
a  list  of  publications  in  addition  to  those  which  from  time  to  time  have  been 
reported  to  the  Section.  Preparatory  steps  for  the  campaign  for  placing  works 
on  our  denominational  Church  History  in  local  public  libraries  is  prfc)gressing, 
but  the  inauguration  of  the  movement  is  left  to  the  reorganized  committee  to 
be  named  by  the  Tenth  Council.  No  subject  needs  more  attention  than  this  of 
our  Church  History,  and  we  are  glad  to  state  the  opinion  that  it  is  receiving 
far  more  careful  attention  than  in  previous  years. 

14.  Periodicals. — The  Committee  on  Periodicals  of  the  Section  has  given 
attention  to  the  securing  a  wider  publication  of  the  proceedings  of  the  Executive 
Commission,  and  also  a  larger  interest  in  important  occurrences  in  the  life  and 
work  of  the  constituent  Churches.  It  is  to  be  regretted  that  thus  far  these 
efforts  have  been  met  with  no  considerable  degree  of  success.  In  this  line  of 
endeavor  the  Western  Section  has  requested  the  Alliance,  at  its  coming  meeting, 
to  appoint  a  Joint  Committee  of  the  Eastern  and  Western  Sections  to  consider 
the  whole  question  of  the  enlargement  of  the  scope,  size  and  circulation  of  the 
Quarterly  Register  of  the  Alliance.  This  magazine  contains  now,  Chiefly,  articles 
connected  with  the  Churches  of  the  Continent  of  Europe.  It  is  felt  that  it 
should  also  include  suitable  news  concerning  the  British  and  American  Churches. 
This  matter  will  be  pressed  upon  the  attention  of  the  Tenth  Council. 

15.  The  Tenth  Council. — The  Tenth  Council  of  the  Alliance,  as  already 
announced,  will  meet  at  Aberdeen,  Scotland,  June  17  to  27,  1913.  The  opening 
session  will  be  held  in  the  Old  Machar  Parish  Church,  Aberdeen,  at  10:30  a.  m., 
June  17,  the  Very  Reverend  George  Adam  Smith,  D.  D.,  LL.  D.,  Principal  of 
Aberdeen  University,  in  the  Chair.  After  the  service  of  public  worship,  the 
Council  will  be  constituted  by  the  retiring  President,  the  Rev.  David  James 
Burrell,  D.  D.,  LL.  D.,  of  the  Reformed  Church  in  America,  New  York  City, 
who  will  deliver  the  opening  address.  On  the  evening  of  June  17  a  reception 
will  be  given  to  the  delegates  by  the  Lord  Provost  of  Aberdeen,  the  magistrates 
of  the  city,  and  the  Town  Councillors. 

16.  Apportionments. — The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  represent- 
atives in  the  Tenth  Council  to  which  each  Church  in  the  Western  Section  is 
entitled,  and  the  amount  of  money  which  each  Church  is  requested  to  contribute 
during  the  next  fiscal  year  toward  the  expenses  of  the  world-wide  work  of  the 
Alliance :

Alliance  include  the  salary  and  expenses  of  the  General  Secretary,  Rev.  George 
D.  Mathews,  D.  D.,  of  London,  England,  and  the  expenses  of  the  annual  meeting 
of  Western  Section.    The  American  Secretary  continues  to  serve  without  salary. 

17.  Treasurer's  Report. — The  receipts  from  the  Churches  on  their  appor- 
tionments during  the  year  ending  February  i,  1913,  amounted  to  $3,680,  and 
there  was  received  for  interest  the  sum  of  $73.25,  making  a  total  of  $3,753.25. 
The  expenditures  were  as  follows:  General  expenses,  London  office,  $2,157.39; 
annual  meeting.  Western  Section,  1912,  $973.20;  printing,  $223.95;  miscellaneous, 
$45.74;  total,  $3,400.28. 

18.  Fraternal  Delegates. — The  Commission  has  appointed  the  following 
delegates  to  carry  to  the  several  Churches  in  the  Western  Section  of  the  Alli- 
ance fraternal  greetings : 

Presbyterian  Church  in  Canada John  Somerville,  D.  D. 

Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.  S.  A D.  G.  Wylie,  D.  D.

The  Future. — The  time  has  come,  in  the  judgment  of  the  Western  Section, 
when  there  should  be  an  extension  of  the  operations  of  the  Alliance  commen- 
surate with  the  scope  of  its  jurisdiction.  What  particular  form  this  develop- 
ment should  take  is  of  course  a  matter  for  consultation  with  all  the  Churches. 
It  would  appear  that  we  have  come  to  a  critical  hour  in  both  the  history  of  the 
Christian  religion  and  the  progress  of  mankind.     Our  Churches  were  the  first 


158  APPENDIX 

among  the  various  communions  of  the  Christian  Church  Universal  to  attain  to 
an  organized  common  life,  as  expressed  in  the  Council.  We  should  give,  there- 
fore, earnest  and  sober  thought  alike  to  the  obligations  which  rest  upon  us,  in 
connection  virith  the  spread  of  our  religion  and  the  welfare  of  humanity,  and  to 
the  opportunities  for  service  which  God  hath  set  before  His  Church  in  this 
twentieth  century.  As  a  part  of  the  forces  which  make  for  progress  and  united 
effort,  we  should  seek,  more  and  more,  in  heart  and  life  to  prepare  for  the 
incoming  of  His  Kingdom  who  prayed  saying,  "that  they  all  may  be  one,  as 
thou.  Father,  art  in  me  and  I  in  thee,  that  they  also  may  be  one  in  us,  that  the 
world  may  believe  that  thou  has  sent  me." 

Respectfully  submitted, 

R.  H.  Fleming,  Chairman. 

Wm.  H.  Roberts,  Secretary. 


STATED  CLERKS  OF  PRESBYTERIES 

ARE   REQUESTED  : 

In  making  their  Annual  Reports  to  the  Assembly  to  use  blanks  provided  by 
the  Secretary  of  Publication ;  always  procuring  new  ones. 

1.  To  make  their  reports  in  fair,  distinct  writing,  especially  the  columns 
of  names  and  figures  in  the  Statistical  Tables.  Add  all  the  columns  and  report 
no  fractions  in  the  money  columns. 

2.  To  make  them  as  accurate  and  as  full  as  possible.  When  Churches  do 
not  report  to  Presbyteries,  let  the  numbers  of  their  communicants,  elders  and 
deacons  in  their  last  reports  be  inserted. 

3.  To  append  to  the  statistics  of  Presbyteries  a  brief  account  of  the  changes 
which  have  occurred  during  the  year,  such  as  the  number  of  lecensures,  ordina- 
tions, installations,  dissolution  of  pastorates,  organization  and  dissolution  of 
Churches  and  the  names  of  ministers  deceased.  Place  a  star  after  name  of 
Church  if  a  manse  is  furnished.  Discard  the  use  of  "W.  C."  after  names  of 
ministers  without  charges. 

4.  To  transmit  their  Statistical  and  other  Reports  to  the  Stated  Clerk  of 
the  Assembly  as  soon  as  they  are  prepared.  If  Statistical  Reports  are  not 
received  before  the  Assembly  meets,  it  will  occasion  embarrassing  delay  in  the 
publication  of  the  Minutes. 

Blank  forms  for  Sessional  or  Presbyterial  Reports  are  not  furnished  by 
the  Stated  Clerk  of  the  General  Assembly,  but  by  the  Executive  Committee  of 
Publication,  at  cost  price,  by  order  of  the  Assemblies  of  1867  and  1878;  and 
Stated  Clerks  are  earnestly  urged  to  supply  themselves  with  the  latest  blanks  for 
all  Reports.    Get  new  blanks  each  year,  and  thereby  avoid  confusion. 

The  Assembly  instructs  Stated  Clerks  to  send  up  no  overture,  except  when 
it  is  written  upon  a  separate  sheet  of  its  own. 

Notify  the  Stated  Clerk  of  General  Assembly  when  a  change  is  made  in 
the  clerkship  of  your  Presbytery. 


TO  THE  STATED  CLERKS  OF  SYNODS. 
It  is  the  duty  of  these  officers  promptly  to  notify  the  approaching  General 
Assembly  through  its    Stated   Clerk,    (i)    of   the   forrnation   or   dissolution   of 


APPENDIX  1S9 

Presbyteries  within  the  bounds  of  their  respective  Synods,  and  (2)  of  the 
times  and  places  of  the  next  ensuing  meetings  of  these  bodies.  It  is  not 
required  that  Synodical  Narratives  or  statistical  reports  prepared  by  Synod  be 
sent  to  the  Assembly.  They  are  simply  for  Synodical  record.  (3)  Notify  the 
Stated  Clerk  of  the  Assembly  when  change  is  made  in  the  clerkship  of  Synod. 
Attend  to  these  three  things  immediately  on  the  adjournment  of  Synod,  that 
the  Assembly's  clerk  may  begin  that  early  the  preparation  of  his  schedules 
and  blanks  for  the  next  Assembly.  To  do  this  he  needs  a  complete  roll  of 
Presbyteries. 


PRAYER  FOR  THE  GENERAL  ASSEMBLY. 

Whereas,  The  General  Assembly  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United 
States  fully  recognizes  the  efficiency  of  the  prayers  of  God's  people,  and  the 
necessity  of  divine  guidance  in  its  own  deliberations;  therefore — 

Resolved,  First,  That  the  General  Assembly  recommend  to  all  the  Churches 
under  its  care  to  offer  special  prayer  during  the  devotions  of  the  Sabbath  pre- 
ceding the  meeting  of  the  General  Assembly  in  each  year,  that  God  would  of 
His  great  mercy  so  give  the  General  Assembly  the  wisdom  that  cometh  from 
above,  and  so  direct  all  its  plans,  discussions  and  decisions,  as  to  promote  His 
own  glory  and  to  advance  the  kingdom  of  Jesus  on  earth. 

Resolved,  Second,  That  the  above  preamble  and  resolution  be  printed 
•annually  in  the  Appendix  to  the  Minutes  of  the  Assembly.
