WE wish to say, once for all, that we
do not make special terms with subscrib-
ers. The regular price to subscribers is
$3, except in the case of ministers. who
are charged $3.50.
For limited time last year we offered
the paper at So 25 for the first gear to new
subscribers, and this year we are offering
1t In the same way to new subscribers for
S2. All those new subscribers who got
the paper for one year under the So. 25
proposition, will have to pay So after the
hrst year, as we explained at the time.
We cannot afford to publish at lower
rates than the great religious weeklies of
the North, some of which have 10000
subscribers.
We made nothing at 1926 for enc year,
and our expectation was to reimburse
ourselves by holding such new subscribers
for many years, provided they were
pleased with the paper.

B0 THE NEW YEAR. wa
A Premium of One Dollar.

We are anxious to extend the circulation of
this paper, and with this object, we now offer
ONE DOLLAR in money for every new sub.
scriber whose name shall be sent between this
and the LIST day of February. We hereby re-
quest every man, woman, and child who reads
the CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN to become an
AGENT, and thus help to place it in every Pres
byterian family. We believe the best way to
obtain new subscribers is to give all an oppor-
tunity to see the paper, and we pay this premi-
um with the expectation of retaining such new
subscribers for many years.
The person procuring the new subscriber may,
If he prefers, give the benefit of this premium
to the subscriber, any one may subscribe in
this way without the Intervention of the agent.
This proposition practically gives the paper
to new subscribers at So per annum tor the
hrst year. We shall make nothing at this fig
ure, and could not afford to publish at any such
price. Our sole object is to add new subscrib
ers to our list, with the hope, as we have said,
of retaining them afterwards permanently on the
regular terms

the work of the Assembly's committee

the Presbyteries may then take action in

THE FOLLOWING is a statement of the
grounds on which the United Presbyte-
rians and other exclusive psalm-singing
Presbyterians rest their practice:
" Those who advocate the use of inspired Psalms
alone in the worship of God do not deny that
uninspired hymns and songs may be made and
used in other ways. A minister uses manv books
which he would not put in his pulpit beside or
in place of his Bible, to preach to his congrega-
ton; so we may read or sing hymns in our de-
votlonal frames, or for instruction and to awaken
spiritual emotions; but when we come to ,7or-
ship God, we take the Bible and the Psalms
which he has required at our hands,"
The Psalm-singers are not welded to any
version; but agree that better one than any
extant is greatly to be desired. Our versions
are open to grave criticisms, and it is devoutlv
wished that the Evangelical churches would in
vite Christian scholars and poets to give prayer
tul effort to the preparation of an exact trans
lation for chanting and another in various
metres for singing. Until this is done we do
not expect that the hymns In use will be super
seeded"
This is an extract from communica-
ton from DR.. Milligan in the Christian,
IntelJgencer.
1t appears to us that consistency would
require that those who will use nothing
but an inspired psalmody in the Church,
should also exclude all uninspired preach
ing. They should confne themselves to
the sermons Of Moses, Solomon, Ezra,
Peter, Stephen, Paul, and the rest.
And so Of the prayers.

HE SAN FRANCISCO correspondent of
the Herald and PreS6yter gives an ac-
count of Mr.. Moody's services in that
city. He had been preaching in Oak
land (across the bay) and in the First
Presbyterian church, San Francisco (for-
merly DR.. Eells) to crowded houses.
Hundreds of inquirers filled the lecture
room after the sermon. Last night
says the writer, the lecture room, which
will hold three or four hundred, was full
when [ visited it at nine o'clock. And
at the same hour the Baptist church ad-
joining was full of people who could not
get into the inquiry meeting" He con-
tinues:
Last Sabbath Mr.. Moody preached at 8
o'clock P. NJ. to ladies only. No men were ad-
mitted but the singers and the ushers. Not only
all the seats were filled, but the aisles and the
vestibule, and many had to go away 1t was
strange sight. l was admitted as a reporter, and

In the evening Mr. Moody preached the same
sermon to men only. The number who crowded

Iren@us (Rev. DR.. Prince writes in

Aieheeus \neV. Dr. Prme) writes In
the ". Y. Observer:
One evening, in this city, at public meeting
IN Baptist church, | was in the pulpit with
ministers of several different denominations,
when one OF them told a story the point of which
was to make light OF the rite of baptism by i'm
mersion. The bad taste, the bad manners the
atrocity of the thing, shocked me, and must have
been painful to every right-minded person in
the house. And no one rite is more frequently
made matter of feeble wittcism than the bap
tism OF infants by sprinkling and the baptism of
adults by immersion. When Baptist speaks
OF baby sprinklers" or a Pedo- Baptist speaks
OF immersionists as clippers" they are both of
tenders against Christian decorum In like man
ner the Amens of the Methodists and the forms
and vestments of Epscopalians are often made
fun OF by those who do not stop to reflect that
our peculiarties are the most sensitive places in
our system. and whoever laughs at them wounds
to the quick.

The Presbyterianism Of the United States is of
