Truro, Nova Scotia. the oldest Press bytorian church in Canada, voted 611 to 43 for Union. 80 per cent of tho total vote was polled. The minister of this church is Rev John Muteh, Botrlnlaw of Rev R. Douglas Fraser, of Presbyterian Publications. Toronto. A report received by mail says the church at MacLeod, Alta., voted 64to 3 against Union. This congregation in a news dispatch previously was ro- ported to have gone 53 to 3 in favor of Union. Leith church, near Owen Sound.at a congregational meeting, decided to have no voting and will enter the Un. ion. Knox Church Edmonton. voted 446 for and 154 against. Westminster Church, Edmonton. went 3It for, 70 against. Twenty new returns were received by the bureau over the week end, all of which with the exception oi' Mac- Leod, Alberta, voted for entering Un. ion. The results to date by Provin- ces are as follows : B. Columbia, 2 for Union, 1 against; Alberta 12 for Un- ion, 5 against ; Sask.. 120 tor Union, 4 against; Ontario 48 for Union, 1 against: P. Ed. Island 1 for Union. none against: Nova Scotia 1 for Un. ion. none against. The total returns to date Tuesday show 184 for Union and 11 against. The church is full to capacity, tho combined young peoples' work is a joy to watch. having a combined membership, greater than the total of the two groups before the Union. Women's organizations were never more active and harmonious. while the combined musical resources are much greater. Instead of two churches struggling to pay a minimum salary by Ladies' Aids, etc.. the United Church pays a salary or $2250. plus a bonus of $250. free furnished house, telephone. light and water, and a month's holiday each year. The weekly collections finance this, leaving the Ladies Aid tree to do the more important social work and sick visiting and looking up newcomers. Much has been written about the "awful" things that are to follow Church Union. Your readers may he intvrested to know how Union is working out in Cobalt. I most glad- ly give you my impressions of the re- sults so far as we see them hora. The Union here was brought about after two trys and the atmosphereto some seemed anything but favorable, but happily their fears have not been rpalized and it would be hard indeed to find anyone in this town of five thousand who would go back to the old days. I would go further and say that I do not believe that you could find am olllcial of either church who held office before the Union and are here today who would think of going back to the old days. C.

Owing to the war, the Assembly ot 1917 decid ed to postpone discussion and action till one year after the close ot the war, but the whole Presbyterian church was unanimous in agreeing to cooperation with other churches, un- der an affiliation plan as to disposal of mission money, etc. As a result of this policy independent union church- es number at this time 1245 charges and 3000 preaching stations. There is cooperation in text books, immi- gration, Sunday Schools, etc. The Professors in the colleges at present, are cooperating in the teach- ing of theology. Many Sunday School papers are used in common by both Methodist and Presbyterian churches and are cooperating in fullest meas- ure In Sunday School work as well as with Young Peoples' work. He then dealt with the much talked‘ of basis under a number of divisions) the f1rat being "doctrine." Every tit) trine. he said, "was born flrst in‘the heart of man." The Basis is thel substance ot modern christian; thought. and it was marvellous how few differences there were. The statement of doctrine was not sup- posed to be infallible. The Contos. sion of Faith 'never claimed that it was infallible. The union of the Presbyterian churches in 1875 was based on a revision of this confes- sion. The Word or God was the on- ly infallible rule of faith and conduct. No minister now is ever asked to be- lieve the Confession of Faith infallib- “I never heard of any Christian 'church which did not believe this," iand he quoted part of Methodist be 'iiiet that Christ was at the right hand of God "and there sltteth until He ‘1'eturns.” Dr Denney urged that a 'sumcient creed for any person was, I“! believe in God through Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord and I Saviour." in the new church the educational standard is to be the attainment of the BA. degree and three years in the study of Theology, and at least one year ot actual work before ordin- ation: or three years in Arts and three years in Theology: or two years' study under Presbytery while preaching on a mission with a tour year mixed Arts and Theology course: and besides shall be examined by rigorous questions. Every minister at present is expec- ted to sign a document, is asked "Are you willing to sign the formula," he assents. but his oral assent only is required : he, the speaker, never saw this signed once. The word of every faithful applicant is not doubt. ed, Fears It is guaranteed in the Basis that "no terms of admission to full mem- bership shall be described other than those laid down in the New Testa- ment and that the freedom of war- ship at present enjoyed in the nego- tiatlng churches shall not be inter- tered with in the United Church." In closing ho made-a strong appeal for harmony in thought. word and deed. It was your church, not mine, (ministers have no vote). "i Mit want anyone to form opinions bu my action." if you look for human lead- ership consider the action of over four fifths or our ministers who say they are going into Union and he made a strong appeal for them to ac- cept the leadership of Jesus Christ in His teachingr and example.
