MiSSionf. rs speaker of the day. whose
subject was The Early History of the
Presbyterian Church." n continuation
of series of talks and lectures given
along this line before thu club.
AT present, there are twelve
branches of the Presbyterian Church.
DR.. Sclfridge said. (which are emu
mcratcd rs follows: Presbyt aridn
Church of the United States of Amer
lea: Presbyterian Church of the

Cumberland Presbyterian Reformed

hyt,rian of America; Dutch Reformed
Presbyterian German Reformed Pres
byterian. and Calvinistic Methodist
(Which is Presbyterian in doctrine but
Methodist in government.l"
"The First Church of San Antonio
belongs to the Presbyterian branch OF
the Tnia d States, with headquarters
at Richmond. NA.ui -,n,
There are number of good reasons
for this division of churches and for
the existing branches of the Presbg-
torian Church. which is no drawback
to the Presbyterian doctrine and for
what the Presbyterian Church or
church,s stand for DIR. Selfridge
said.
Zone thing our church strongly op-
poses. and that is the minglng OF
church with state affairs, for while
we advocate clean politics and proper
legislation. yet we believe that the in.
dividual member of the church should
use his asst efforts as voter and q
citizen. but the church itself should
not interfere in any matters what
ever pertaining to state or government
affairs"
The next meeting Of the club will
be hid ut the Menger Hotel. at 6
o'clock dinner, Tuesday evening, No
vember Is.
