D. R. Drummond regarding the amalgamation of the Home Mis-| | sion and Social Service Boards was adopted. It provided for the ap- pointment of Dr. A. S. Grant as; | general superintendent and conven- jor, of Dr. J. R. Shearer as superin-| | tendent of Social Service work; of | Rev. J. H' Edmison as secretary of | | Home Missions, and Rev. F. A. Rob-| | inson as secretary of Social Service| land Evangelism. | | Dr. Shearer stated that some] | statements had appeared in the press | | that there was ill-feeling between | | himself and Dr. Grant-over the am-/ algamation and the positions each| | would occupy. He would not desert] | his. post and he accepted the posi-| | tion offered him until the present] | erisis in national affairs was fast. | Dr. Grant said he had no desire] {to occupy a premier position, and| would really prefer to drop out or | occupy a secondary position. He | would do anything in the interests] | of the chureh, so he had decided to | carry out the will of the Assembly |and tide over the difficulties that] | were to be faced. | | The committee on Public Wor- {ship and aids to devotion reported | | that the gublication of the book for family worship had been delayed be- yond the time indicated by the As- sembly a year ago owing to the It recommended that a book | be prepared for the administration of the sacraments and other ordin-| ances. { Prof. R. Davidson, Toronto, in pre- renting the report on overtures re- garding retrenchment in administra- tion, said the committee was rather staggered when it found the total eost of administration offices was be- tween $105,000 and $110,000. Objection was raised to this find- ing, several of the commissioners de- claring that a number of charges should not be included under "ad- ministration." It was decided on motion of Prin cipal Gandier to refer this matter to the financial board committee to re- port on the whole question of effic- jency and economy in church admin- istration and to distinguish between the cost of the administration offices and what is expended for educational work and the promotion of syste-| matic givings; and that a statement | Le published at the earliest possible) time. { Principal Gandier pointed out that | over $10,000 was expended upon the] commissioners to the Assembly for| travelling expenses. Rev. Dr. Camp- bell said that gome other way should be found to cover the expenses of the Assembly. He did not think the cost should come out of the funds of the Church. Consolidation and concentration was what was needed, Dr. Grant said: The Assembly should be careful and not appoint too many officials and committees. Permission was given to the Synbd of Alberta to have included in the church budget contributions up to $10,000 for a period of five years, to the Ladies College at Red Deer, it being understood that the college property is to be transferred to the Assembly when it is ready to receive it. The Assembly also commended the College to the liberality of the Presbyterians of Alberta. A resolution to take over the prop- erty of the First sbyterian Church, Vancouver, B. C., which has a very large but poor congrega- tion, was defeated. The property is worth $150,000, and is mortgaged for $44,000. The proposal was to use the church for the basis of secial service in that great western city. Dr, Shearer asked the Assembly to take ver a property offered to the church building and manse commit- tee. ' There is a mortgage of $3, 000 upon the property, which is worth $12,000. The matter was re- ferred to Dr. Shearer and Dr. Grant to find a way of ing the offer. There was a discussion upon social service work, some of which Dr. Shearer said would have to be closed down if the request of the board of finance to keep down expenditure was applied to the social service.commit- tee. Dr. Shearer said the commit- tee would do its best to maintain all of Victoria, B. C., regarding condi- their attention. Their on Thursday to occupy request was granted There are about fort.
