VERYIMPORTANTSTEP
Taken by the House of Deputies
in the General Episcopal
Convention.
PROPOSES A VARIATION OF RITUAL
SO That in Certain Cases Congre-
cations Can Go Outside
the Prayer Book.

San Francisco, Oct. S.-Yesterday
Was day of Oratory in the house of
deputies of the Episcopal general con-
VentiCn. The debate, which began
last Saturday. on the proposed addi-
prescribing the form of worship. was
continued all day and finally resulted
in its adoption. AS adopted ii reads
as follows: But provision may be
made by canon for temporary use of
old forms and directories of worship
by congregations not in union with this
church who are willing to accept the
spiritual oversight Of the bishop of the
diocese or missionary district The
vote was as follows: Clerical-Ayes.

80; nays. II: divided =.
Raised Quite a Lively Debate.
The debate was very animated, and
until the result was made known it
wns the prevailing opinion that the
vote would be much more evenly divid-
ed than ii was. 1t was strongly urged
by the advocates of the proposed
change that its adoption would open
the way to a great increase in the
membership of the church. while its
opponents regarded it as too radical an
innovation.
DIR. Huntington'a Final Plea.
Rev. DR.. Huntington. of New York.
made the closing argument. He de-
clared it to be his purpose to bring in
Il canon embodying all the provisions
of his original resolution. If the
amendment should be adopted such
canon would be possible. The four
great questions. he said, which con
front the American people are the sane
tity of the home, the publication OF
the municipal life of our great cities,
the relation between capital and labor,
and. towering up over all the others
because entering into all others-was
the question whether we can thorough
l. and uniformly consolidate all the
religious forces of the republic. He
eloquently argued that the step which
is now proposed TO he taken by the
Episcopal church would he in the di
rcction of such conclusion.
Presiding Bishop Made Elective.
The house of bishops adopted the
amendment to Article |. Section 13. OF
the constitution, already approved by
the deputies. which. in effect. makes
the presiding bishop of the church elec-
tive for term of three years by n ma

transacted much routiue business.

One thing that impressed mo very
much was our visit TO the state industri-

we're 106 girls in the home. The State

able TO say Jasper county is reIr sentcd
~ twenty.eight girls: more than one
fourth the number there. L, like many
Others know Of the home but scarcely
gave it thought only as would see by
our county paper now and then where
the court had sent some poor, unfortun-
ate girl to the Industrial home. The
greater Tart Of these girls have mothers
in name only.) l wish every mother
in jasper county could visit that home
and especially these who could hut do
not attend s. 8. They would not say to
their children on Sunday morning, you
50 to Sunday school, but would go with
them. Oh, that more mothers could
realize how much they are needed la the
S. S. work. feel the need of greater
work 10 jasper county TO try TO sa?c the
boys and girls an know Of no bettor
place to reach them than in the S. S.
But very few OF those girls had ever
attended Sunday school before entering
the Industrial home but am glad to
say they have an ideal one in the home.
Every Thursday night they have teach
ers meeting. On Saturday night each
teacher takes her class to a room and
they study their lesson together.
Sunday morning both teacher and pu
pill go to the Sunday school room with
the lesson well repaired.
