ATLANTIC CITY. May 1S.-The Presby.
terry of New York will not be ousted by
the 12Sth Presbyterian General Assembly
1t may be reprimanded by the Assembly,
which convenes here today in a ten-day
annual session.
The authority for this statement Is DR..
John Grant Newman, of the Judiciary Com
mittee of the General Assembly and pastor
OF the Chambers-Wylie Memorial Presby-
terian Church of Philadelphia. Doctor
Newman himself is graduate of the Union
Theological Seminary the bone of conten-.
tion of the General Assembly.
In speaking of the communication sent

Presbytery. the Fort Wayne Presbytery
and the Northumberland (Pa.) Presbytery.
asking the General Assembly to oust IL
necessary the New York Presbytery on ac-
count of the licensing of graduates of the
Union Theological Seminary who admitted
they questioned the virgin birth and other
miracles of the Bible. Doctor Newman
waxed eloquent. He said;
'It is all very we'll to talk of ousting
the New York Presbytery. but 1t will never
be done at this General Assembly, There
is no proof of the statements attributed

prove the young men said these things.
There Is no court evidence which could be

passed requiring all examinations of ap-
plicants for license as Presbyterian min
listers be written instead of oral examina-

that the 12sth General Assembly will not
attempt to oust the New York Presbytery,"
Doctor Newman and a lay delegate, Ora.

not attempt to conceal their mirth when
talking of the $1,S40,O00 added endowment

why has not the world long before now
been under the Transforming, uniting power
OF Christian faith and love? The progress
of the Church at the beginning. when all
were of one mind and of one heart. gave
promise of speedy world conquest. The
achievements of sprt-flled men down
through the ages, the recorded triumphs of
missions, the adequated resources of the
Church, all the promises Of Gods word
converge on the possibility and the urgency
of bringing every living creature under the
power Of Christian truth and hope. Why
has this not been done? Largely because
of divided Chrlstendom and unmutual and
competitive church life and a failure to
manifest the unity and love of God

what calomel is. It's mercury; quick

When you feel bilious, sluggish, con-

you need dose Of dangerous calomel just
remember that your druggist sells for

Tone, which IS entirely vegetable and
pleasant to take and is perfect substi-
