bly's Home and School; an executive
committee on foreign missions and an

nevoIence was recommended to he

cences of the church be separated from

1t was recommended also that the
number of special collections be re-
duced to eight. two each for foreign
missions, home missions and ministe-
rial education and relief, one each for
Sab bath school missions and publica-
ton and for the Bible cause.
Before the report of this committee

Quoted by DR.. f. w. McCorkle, of Ken
lucky. a communication was received
from the Independent Presbyterian

This church. as its name implies, has
no connection with any other church.

was the first moderator of the Presby-
tcrian General Assembly of that coun-
Cry. He gave a very encouraging ac-
count of the work In that country and
the growth of the church. Though n
native Brazilian, he uses the English
language with great facility, and made
a very favorable impression on the AS
scmbly.
The moderator, DR.. Bachman. made a
very appropriate response. In speak
ing of the characteristics of the Bra
zilians he mentioned the fact that a
