An united meeting was held when it

were regarded as absolutely necessary.
Each OF the four churches decided to
adopt the recommendation so that the
rule is now strictly enforced.
1t ought, however, to be observed
that the movement was entirely taken
up and supported by the lay members
of the various churches and was not
the outcome of the personal feelings of
