MINISTER'S OF
TWO CITIES IN
JOINT MEETING
Mandan and Bismarck Minis.
ters Decide Not to Press
Controversial Subjects
INTEREST is GAINING
AccessiOns to Churches Grow
ing From Year to Year in
Two Cities, They Report

Pastors who are members of the
Bismarck and Mandan ministerial as
sociations, in joint meeting held in
Mandan late yesterday afternoon, de-
cided not to enter the field Of con-
troversy in the church at this time
on the differences between those
holding to fundamentalist and mo-
dernist interpretations of the Bible.
The question was discussed at some
length by the pastors, who reviewed
the agitation along this line, parti-
cularly in the East, and it was held
better that the pastors should en-
phasize the non-contrOversial doc
trincs of the church in their sermons
and in their church work.
The meeting, which was the first
joint meeting of the ministerial as
sociations of the two churches, was
held in the Methodist Church at
Mandan, with Rev. S. +. Halfyard,
Bismarck, president of the local min
isterial association presiding. The
ministers, a dozen in number, were
cussion and it was decided by the
Bismarck ministers to invite the
Mandan ministers here for joint
discussion of church problems later
in the spring.
Membership in the church, the Eas-
ter programs and general church pro-
blems were discussed. Every minis
ter reported gain in membership
from year to year, Rev. Halfyard
said. The reports, he said, .showed
that interest in the churches and
church organizations was gaining in
spite of the many obstacles met by
them in their work of advancing the
church. Various new translations of
the Bible and other religious works
were discussed by the pastors.
After the meeting all were enter
tained at dinner at the home Of Rev.
Mr. Davenport.
