Dr. Macintosh! add-reel on Church Union. The Minister, Rev. G. C Taylor. presided and intro duced the speakers. After prayer by Rev. A. J. lMcNeilI and Scripture reading by Rev. W. Spencer,.lhe chairman called upon Rev. E, Lock hart of Souris who was the first speaker. d-Ie spoke of his experienc- es in the Canadian West, in tbs foreign field and in his present charge at Souris. Mr. Lockhsrt held to the view that in. entering the United Church Preshyerlans would not lose their jdontityl He traced the progress of the move- ment through its initial stages to the present, explaining certain specific features of the Act of Un- ion and dealing with certain ob- jections and interpretations oi these features. . ' ‘i-Ie began by referring to the greatness of the issue before us. We need cleannoss of thought and judgment and good charity at a time like this. ,~He pointed out that the action of het Presbyterian Church in Can- ada in entering Into Union was ir. keeping with the spirit of Presby- terianism_ Even George Gillespie. one of the framers of the Confes- sion of Faith said that ‘we should not only pray for _it but endeavor it," and the Confession itself breaths the same spirit. The Es- tablished Church of Scotland. the mother church of Scotch Presby- terianism in a recent resolution says: The Church of Scotland, be- lievin-g it to be the will of Christ that His disciples should be all one in the Father anti in this. that the world may believe that the Father has sent Him, recognizes the obi-i- gatlon to seek and promote union with other churches." Not only the right but tho obligation is acknow- ledged. The United Free Church claims that this church has the sole and exclusive right and pow- er . .. _ to u-nite with other Christian Cilurches." He contend- ed moreover that in uniting with other churches they were true l" the spirit of the New Testament. He referred no Paul's aversion to schism and quoted the Dilly" 01 our “Lord. He pointed out the cir- cumstances under which uttered when ‘Christ was to ‘die to save the world and the spots-ties in former times. He seemed to feel that a divided church would never move the world to faith. In regard l0 commentators saying that this prayer did not refer to external un- ity he showed how these always showed the influence of the thought of their day. He lnstnnced the case of slavery where exposit- ors claimed that slavery was an in- sltutlon of God's appointing and was to be perlnnnent. Did not the Bible say that Canaan was to he "the servant of servants." It has been the shame of the church that she has refused to see the highest meanings in the words of Holy Writ. “We feel that we in the true apostolic succession when we are making for the union of Christen. dom." He then referred to the argument that we should not go forward while there is so much opposition. He pointed out how in every sphere of life progress met with opposition. The spinning Jenny was destroyed by irate workmen. the steam engine was characterized as the work oi‘ the devil. He point- ed out how the church opposed the work of ‘Foreign Missions and Silli- day Schools. Also how the Union of 1875, which made possible the great work which our church has done in Canada was more bitterly opposed than evcn this union. Who today will doubt that it was of God. Judaism opposed the call oi‘ our Lord to bet-fer things. They could claim that Judaism was of God's appoint- ing and of the marvellous record of the past. and tho great characters which l‘t had produced. But because they refused to advance they lulled to influence the world, "We do not halt simply because all will not ad- vance. Enoush that to us i-t is the case o fduty. We can do no other ivllatever it may cost us hilt go forivarl ." He referred to the claim that the assembly promised not to go forward unless there was virtu- al unanimity. That W85 in one of the repel-ts received for considera- tion by the Assembly but the As- sembly is not bopnd only by its resolutions. The speaker then referred to ‘lllh claim put forward by those obpos- ed to Union that in t-he United Church there would he no restric- tions uron its ministry in the mode of teaching. It is claimed that u Unitarian could honestly accept the obligations which are required of the ministry. One wonders what can be the conception of honor by one who makes this claim. The slu- dent entering the ministry oi‘ the United Church must first. of all be recommended by the Session. I-Ié must he examined annually during his course as to his doctrinal he- llefs by the Presbytery. On gradu- atlon he is to he examined again ‘by Presbytery and licensed. He l's then to he examined by Conference and must satisfy his examiners that he is in essential agreement therewith and that as a Minister of the Church he accepts the statement of Doctrine as in substance agreeable to the teachings of the Holy Scrip- ture. Then he is asked to answer in the affirmative the following questions: “Do you believe your- self to be a child of God through faith in our Lord Jesus Chris-t?" Could a Unitarian to whom Christ is only a name say yea to that. He is furthe-r made to promise that in‘ his teaching he will "leach nothing ‘which is not agreeable .to" Holy ma CHARLOITETOWN GUARD iSoviet Red Army Get- " ting Smaller (Canadian Prue) MOSCOW, Dec. 4.—The Soviet Russian Red army now consists of 562,000 men, assistant Commission- er of War.

L-"Soviet Russia today joined the "we-t" countries of Europe, when a council of the Peo- ples Commissioners lssued a do cree permitting the manufacture and sale of liquors up to a strength of thirty percent. which is but five percent less than the prewar alcoho- lic standard. The new decree is in- tended to increase the Govern- ment's revenues and stop the illicit sale of alcohol which has been wide spread. Scriptures. if the man is honest that is enlough and no asking B5‘ sent to a formula will deal effic- iently with the dishonest. The pos- ing of men opposed to union as or- thodox today ls apparently used as "propaganda to bring men to their cause. ‘He had not met with one minister, union or anti-union who could accept the Confession of ‘Faith in'its complete ness and it is surely unfair and not honorable to accuse brethren ol‘ being false in their vows when the accused holds the same policy a slhey do. No one objected to "contained" in the shorter Cate- -cllism. He then dealt with the right of call I-Ie showed the need for revision in 1h method of settlement of minis-i ters in the Presbyterian Church. Two of the most reverend names in Scotland, Thomas Guthrie and .01: Marcus Dodds had for years to go from one church door to an- other ,the former five years and the latter eight; before any one would accept them‘ as their minis- ter. Besides today if a minister re- and finds it difficult to get a "charge. In the United Church we have the best that’ the acquired wisdom of these great churches could supply. There ls the right to call. The validity of a call depends on whether the congregation can call the mnlster of its choice and not upon the agency, which the call comes. Here it is imperative that a body with wider powers than a Presbytery act as the means through which the call comes. He then dealt with objections presented by those ‘opposed to Un- ion. Coercion is now dwindled down to the sending of a letter by the minister who refuses to concur. He showed that the charges that Mis- sion Funds were misused wer»; groundless, He showed how the re- lation of the congregation to its own properly was exactly as it was before the union took place and also how all the activities of the Individual congregation would go on unchanged. Iile gave tho reason for the existence o-l‘ the Bill as not t ogive the State any control over the Church in Spiritual things but to make possible for the church to carry on its work without interrup- tion. He compared Canadian and Scottish ways of doing this. He dealt with the outlook for those who remained out of union. In Canada thcse who remained our went ill one by one and nothing was achieved by the refusal to go in with the others. That in equally true of the Free Church (wee Frees) oi Scotland. No young men can be found to accept a call in churches whose only outlook is backward. Almost all students are unionists. A church that allows the dead part of the past to control all its energies can never prosper. He concluded by saying that be- cause the escence of religion is love. because the need of lhc great mission fields at home and abroad is so great and so inviting, and b2- causs we feel that _Union is the Will of God we cannot but go forward. The Chairman than declared the meeting open for any questions rc- lntive to the subject under consid- oration, Rev. W. Orr Mulligan of St. Jam- es Church took exception to n stnte mellt by Dr. Macintosh to the el- fect that the Free Church of Scot- land had dwindled since i902, dc- ciarlruz that such was not the case. the Free Church having increased since that time by forty percent, challenged but as he did not wish to precipitate a debate he would leave the matter over ator of the Provincial week of the 14th inst.

A major French demand is that certain preferences he grant- ed to Alsace und Lorraine, two pro- vinces which have bcsome French politically but which must remain for many years economically clos- er lo Berlin than Paris. ‘ The significance of tho new Anglo-German pact is that it pru- vides for “most favored naition" treatment hetweua the contracting parties, thus compelling Germany. If she grants special privlie-ges to Alsace and Lorraine, to give the same privileges to England. lf tho rumored treaty is con- cluded with Beigum. that country too would be able to demand anti get c-very privilege granted by Germany to any other nation. The British Pact. Germany specifically pledges hcr- st-lf ln tho pact with England not to discriminate against British textiles and to abstain from (lis- crlluinntory legislation against British ships, particularly with re- gard to legislation compelling Ger- iuau elulgrnnts to trnvt-l on Ger- man ships. England agrees to remove re- strictions against (lerulan banking agencics in Great Britain, to per- mit German seamen and stewards to servo on British ships, and to remove the restrictions against the 'Germnns as former enemies enter- ‘ing Great Britain. The German pledge not to (iiscrilninats against Great Britain means that. lf in some Inter treaty with another country Germany agrees to a re- duction of her tariff against tex- tiles for instance, English goods u'ould automatically be accorded the ‘more favorable terms. On a small scale the German efforts toward trade agreements resemble those of France in the middle years of the last century whe ntllat country virtually des- troyed European tariff barriers by (iclibcrateiy- negotiating “most favored nation" treaties with one country after another. thus compel! ing all of them gradually to lower their tariffs.
