Vhot 10 SiLdl WUIh'
The sum of the whole interesting dis
cussion was that unity of work and
practical obliteration of denominational
lines were both vital to the full sue
cess OF missionary work because of the
tremendous opposition. In non-Chris-
| tian lands, to divided church and the
individualism that belongs to denomina-
Sional organizations. That there is
danger in furthering this feeling in the
| mind Of the none Christian people by
either advocating or consummating or
ganic union of churches. or whether the
best plan is not TO maintain denomina
| tlonal organizations and work in such
| perfect unity and harmony that the nom
| Christian mind will have its prejudice
against denomina tionalism removed, is
question upon which the delegates are
not agreed. One delegate spoke a most
important truth when be said that the
small differences that now exist be-
| tween the denominations did not hinder
the work of Christian missions so much
as the bitterness that is sometimes ex-
hibited over these differences. He af-
| frmed that the nom Christian mind re-
| spected the differences Of Christian men
but did not respect any bitterness that
might characterize these differences.

discussion and the creation and work OF

the different denominations in the for
eign field or wider separation than has
ever existed. While the separation may
only be the beginning of closer union,
nevertheless it will follow this discus
sion unless closer union comes very
soon. Second-The mont Christian people
will know all about the discussion in a
very short time and, In their present
state of mind about denominatioualism
will expect unity if not organic union,
or the work Of foreign missions will
meet with such opposition as no amount
of money or workers can overcome.

point, which was point well taken,
that no unity of work would be possible
IN any mission field unless members,
who so desired, could be. transferred

their rights as members by the church

out during the discussion, that West

toward unity of work, having now a

hymnal.
The statement was made, and not dis
puted, that without adding one single
missionary nor the use of an additional
dollar of money in the foreign field, the
results could be doubled by full coop

ences in no way interfere with our doing
this work
With scores of other speakers voicing
these same, and even stronger, senti-
ments Of church unity and organic
union, it is not at all strange that the
question of church unity closed with a
discussion of such intensity. All agreed
that unity of method and work, such
as would obliterate the visible lines Of
oeuominationalism was required for the
foreign field. The Chinese delegates
frankly said the Chinese mind would
not understand, mol. would it accept,
the idea Of denominationalism. The
sugar coating was extremely thick, as
delegate after delegate spoke. But ono
frank and practical delegate from Eu-
| rope at last called attention to the fact
that the whole trend and ultimate of
the talk and proposed action. If it meant
anything but "hot air" meant organic
church union and the obIiteration Of all
UNCONVENTIONAL lines After that the
frmed that unity and cooperation of
work was perfectly compatible with

of the discussion, provided that what
was called a continuation committee be
| appointed "to maintain in prominence

boards in any steps which they may be

luton, after being amended (the amend
ment being accepted by the commits
sion, by stating that the things com
mitted to the continuation committee
care interdenominational and do not
involve the idea of organic and ec
clesiastical union was unanimously
adopted. The chief reason for this ac
tion does not lie in agreement Of unity
of churches nor organic union OF
churches, but In the desire to present
the claims of Christianity to the non
Christian mind in the most attractive
manner. The action came, also, because
of the fact that the laymen who are
now giving for missionary work and
who are expected to give the money tc
carry forward the mighty missionary
movements that are rapidly springinl
to the very front of all church work
are business men and financiers, anG
that they will not give money to be
spent in duplicating and overlapping
missionary work simply to support de
nominationalism.

Presbyterian Foreign Missions.
The Rev, Arthur Judson Brown, one
Of the secretaries Of the Presbyterian
board of foreign missions, made an ,eX-
tended tour of China, Japan and Korea
last year, completing his important trip
in December. A summary of his Off
clal report is now issued by the board,
giving the views of an expert on the
status of missions and of affairs in
general in those countries: There are
now nearly 600 organized churches in
Japan. More than one-fourth are self
supporting. These churches have a
membership exceeding 10000. Last year
the membership increased 10 per cent,
There are nearly 500 ordained japanese
workers. 600 unordained male workers,
200 Bible women. and nearly 100000
scholars are taught in over 1000 Sun
day schools. There are about 1000 stu
dents in Christian boarding schools, and
there are 100 Christian Mndergartens
and other day schools where 5000 schol-
ars are taught. About 400 students are
trained in the theological schools, and
$50 women in women Bible schools. Sew.
eral of the larger churches have organ
lied missionary societies which are ex-
tending the work in Japan and in For
mosa, Korea, Manchuria and China. The
! Protestant Christians gave for Chris
tian work last year nearly 100000 yen
| ($150,000).
Workers in Japan.
In most countries Christianity made
its first converts among the lower strata
of society, but in Japan it has won its
greatest successes among the Samurai,
or knightly class. This IS the class
which has furnished the majority Of the
