'Mr. Patterson assured the Presby
tery that the Missignary enterprise
of the Presbyterian Church' were wel
maintained. Not a man had been
withdrawn from the working force
of the Church because of failing ma
terials resources and the spirit and
temper of the Presbyterian people
thronghout Canada was such as to
eel -wince the central office that the
people stood squarely behind the pre-
sent missionary program of the
Church.
On behalf of the committee on
Church life and work, the Rev, Ar-
hur Leggett, of Molesworth, stated
hat the _Church was pressing upon
er ministers the need of preaching
he whole gospel and of making the
tecessary applications of the gospel
o all the activities of life. He be -

pressing thanks for the bales of clo-
thing,s etc., which had been sent from
cur auxiliary. Special mention was
made of the quilt patches and lin-
iugs which the wornen were so pleas-
_ ed to sew for themselveslie also
s said that bedding was badly needed.
It was decided, that, in accordance
with the special call to prayer foi-
e e Kingdom of God movement, sent
eta by the Dominion Board to all
members of the 'W. M. S. of the Un-
ited Church, the meeting should com-
mence at five minutes to three and
a period spent in devotion. Arrange-
ments were mado to have a special
spealcer at the Easter meeting in Ap-
..
e, t
h tiered that the Church was called up-
on to :maintain a high standard of
1. Church membership and to exercise
te care in the matter of admitting new
members. As an aid to this work he
_ suggested the holding of a series of
s, imeetings at lease once -a year lamed-
() liately previous to a Communion, the
purpose of which would be to teach
people the meaning of the Sacrament,
God's Call, and man's privilege in re-
lation to these sacred things.
Rev. T. D. McCullough, of Kincar-
dine, reporting for the Committee
on Remits stated that this was not
an opportune titne to create new of
the Chtneh, and therefore op-
posed the idea of engaging a financial
agent to visit congregations to keep
them acquainted with the work of the
Church and to make such appeals as
might be deemed necessary.
Rev. R. M. Hanna, of Ripley, gave
the report of Committee on Pensions
and urged the necessity of all min-
isters connecting themselves with the
Fund.
After appointing, by rotation, COM-
missioners to the General Assembly,
