from a committee Of the Synod Of

nual meeting in Westminster Church. /

Dr. Wallace Radcliffe, representing
the presbytery OF Washington; DR.
John Mclllmoyle, representing the
presbytery of New Castle, and the
Rev. Edward S. Niles, Of the Balti-
more presbytery. sought TO impress
upon the Synodical the fact that
while the Synod was not tired OF
meeting with the Synodical nor was
IT, making any effort to get rid Of the
women. they thought a change in the
meeting places and time was prac-
teal
Dr Radcliffe. as chairman Of the
committee, who presented the COM
municatlon from the Synod. pointed
out how the entertainment Of the

ings. After DR.. Radcliffe had spoken.
/ Dr McElmoyle added a few remarks
