The last General Conference organized
its finance commission to unity the
presentation Of missionary benevolences
to the local church. Previous to this
year each board has drawn up its own
budget and made its own apportion-
ments. Now a single authority, the finan-
cial secretary, works out the official esti-
mates after the boards have all been
represented in hearings before the
finance commission. Now comes the
'interboard parliament" The country
has been mapped into districts. to which
all the boards will jointly carry their
messages. The first OF these parliaments
has been tried out at Seattle the first
week in April, and already an attend
ance of over 1000 representative Meth
odists is promised. The district superin-

Sunday school, education. women's and
temperance work. The obvious ideal OF
the plan. and it's success also, lies in a
closer and more Executive presentation to
the local church. The great, unified task
of Methodism is brought as nearly to-
gether into the local community as pos
sible.
