NEW YORK, Dec 24.-Private ad-
vices received here today say the fam
inc in China has so far affected three
million persons and that $1OOO,OOO is
urgently needed for their relief.
The Rev Dr. Arthur j. Brown, chair
man of the committee of reference and
council representing the boards and
societies of foreign missions in the
United States and Canada, made public
here the following cable messages from
the interdenominational committee Of
foreign missionaries in Shanghai:
Famine to a great extent over the
northern part of Kiang Su and Anhui
provinces. Three million people affect
ed. Chinese government and people
generously contributing relief. Accord
ing to reports of missionaries in the
district affected, relief is insufficient.
international committee organized
in Shanghai proposes that missionaries
cooperate with generous Chinese to
raise funds. A million dollars needed
Help must be carried on until May.
Please communicate this to mission
airy societies, church papers and Chris
tian Herald, urgently requesting con-
tributions. Ferguson chairman"
The combined population of the two
provinces named in the cable is 3D.
650,54
In greater detail the Rev. Edwin c.
Lobenstine, a Presbyterian missionary
on the spot, describes the conditions in
a letter, in part as follows:
LARGE REGION FLOODED
1--WE are passing through another
time of famine here. The past years
have been marked by repeated floods
and this year both the spring and fall
crops have been an almost total failure
in large sections.
a region of thirty-three miles wide
by nearly sixty miles long has been
swept by the greatest flood within the
memory Of man. The people lost every
thing they had.
THE imperial government has votel
10000 taels for the twelve devastated
counties, but it is a mere drop in the
bucket.
Taking China as a whole, this par
ticular district flooded is a small one;
but there also are famine conditions in
other part of China, and the imperial
government Is in such straits financial
ly that it is very much to be feared
that adequate assistance cannot be
given.
AT the best, It Will be only tenn
porary and will not strike at the real
difficulty. The people are desperate.
1t is hard to preach a gospel of love
to those who are starving or on the
verge thereof unless at the same time
one can help their physical needs"
The reference committee refers con-
tributions to the treasurers of the vari-
Gus boards of foreign missions of the
Red Cross society.

MAN-MADE CREEDS
Continued from page II

tizo0 cannot mean immersion. There
fore in each case we must look to the
context to determine the precise mean
ing, and in thus determining the mean |
ing men honestly differ. {
The instances Of baptism mentioned
in the Bible were then taken up. From
the description given of some of these
it can easily be inferred that immersion
was practiced, while in others the facts
stated raise strong presumption that
there was no immersion. Christ's
baptism by John forms no precedent
for Christian baptism, since that was
according to the rites of the Jewish
Church, and was not baptism to re-
pentance but conservation to the
priesthood. Besides, the strong prob
ability is that Christ was not miners
ed. The baptism of Saul and Cornell
ius evidently took place in the house,
and it is very unlikely that there could
have been immersion. The Pentecostal
baptism of 5000 took place where a
sufficient body of water for immersion
would be difficult to find, and the fact
that SO large number were baptized
by IL apostles is strong circumstance
arguing against immersion.
| paul tells us that the Children of
Israel were all baptized unto Moses in
the cloud and in the sea, and yet the
record tells us that they passed over on
dry ground, and that event is celebrated
in the 77th psalm, which speaks of the
clouds that poured out water. The
only immersion in connection with it
was of the Egyptians, and that was
fatal, for they were all drowned. :"
Whatever the form of baptism, it is
merely symbolical of the publication
of the spirit. No form of baptism has
any essential virtue in itself There is
great danger in concentrating our
attention upon mere forms or symbols
that we may become imbued with the
idea that they are intrinsically valuable
and necessary. Christ impressed this
fact upon Peter, when the latter, hav-
| ing had his feet washed, desired that
his whole body be washed. Jesus
answered, "He that is washed needeth
not save to wash his feet but his body
is clean every whit.
when man or company of men
sit down and write out what they think
the Bible says on certain points and
call it creed, would like to have it
explained to me how that is essentially
different from man standing up and
stating in sermon what he thinks the
Bible says" No creed consisting of
rules honestly interpreted from the
Bible can be impugned as man-made
creed, and no Church has a monopoly
of Interpretation. We have no right
to scott at or ridicule the honest relig-
ious belief of another
Brushing all controversy aside,
am determined not to know anything
among you save Jesus Christ and Him
crucifed; clasp the hand of every be-
lever in Him as brother, show q
brothers love, and cooperate with him
to exalt the name of Jesus.

down but was also unsuccessful in rem
dering assistance to his companions.
