CONGREGATIONA PLAN
INNOVATION IN COUNCIL,

Out of their national council meet
ing in Kansas City in October, Congre-
gatiOnalists will try to develop some
thing quite new IN religious concerns.
| Continuing to bar II from legislative
/ control, quite impossible in this body,
and maintaining puritant independent
notions IN their purity, they would
have of the council a leader in Chris
tan activity This is wholly out of the
Ordinary-picked men to plan new
things, and bring the whole church up
to the point OF putting those plans into
effect. 1t marks a step comparable
with the most up TO date trusts, so
il is admitted on all sides.
A second great aim that is to be
furthered by the council, if possible, is
to readjust the relations of benevolence
to the congregational churches and to
each other. 1t is now proposed that
delegates to the council shall be the
controlling men in the benevolences.
This plan, with a few notifications,
is to cover the American board as well
as the other organizations. It is reck-
Oned also a long step in advance 1t
is considered likely that il will be
agreed to, so carefully has been car
ried on for some years policy OF ed
ucation of the denomination.
Finally, a change that is said to be
coming in Congregational affairs is an
extension of the policy to make state
organizations autonomous, and to give
to them full control of their missionary,
educational and other correctional at
fairs Already nineteen organizations
in as many states have well worked out
local and national plans An increase
to other states seems now certain TO
follow.
part of the new leadership plan
of the national council is the election
of a secretary who shall, in some re-
spects, be the head of the Congrega-
tiOnal body of the country. This need
of one head, giving most of his time,
started with the national council mod
orator It worked so well that per-
manent secretary is proposed, and half
a dozen foremost clergymen are men
toned in connection with the import
ant office. A report on the subject
is to be made at Kansas City next
month

L osition to change the name Of
the protestant Episcopal church is to
come before its approaching general
convention next month has been agreed
upon. It is in the form Of a memorial
from the diocesan convention of Cal
ifornia- 1t outlines a new style of
wording for the title page Of the Book
OF Common prayer, and provides for the
appointment by the general convention
OF 1913 Of a commission Of five biSh-
ops, five presbyters and five laymen to
prepare such legislation as viii put
the constitution and canons of the
Episcopal church in harmony with this
proposed title page wording, and pre-
sent II TO the general convention meet
ing three years hence.
The proposed wording Of the prayer

The Book Of Common Prayer and
Administration Of the Sacraments and
other Rites and Ceremonies of the Holy
Catholic church, according to the use
of that branch thereof known as the
Episcopal church IN the United States

tains three new and unusual things.
All are to be incorporated in the

from the church founded by Jesus
Christ; CD that it is loyal to the prin-
ciples established by and through the
reformation of the church of England
as enshrined in the Book of Common
PRAYER. and. (c) the church'S Catholic
and comprehensive character.

will be subpitted three years hence,
should this proposition go through at
this time, when it shall have been
drawn up by the Is representative men

10 believe that this proposition may
be adopted next month without long
or bitter debate. They say it would
seem to satisfy both sides to the con-
trOTersy, and give neither one a chance
10 claim a victory over the other. Al
ready some leaders, foremost among
the deputies this year, have agreed, IL
