PRAYERb00K
Convention Denies Women
Membership in House
Of Bishops.
BY Universal Service.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 22.-Declar-
ing ii, Apostles and Niccne creeds
were sufficient statements Of their
Christian faith, the house Of deputies
of the Episcopal convention today
voted TO eliminate the 30 articles Of
religion of their church from the book
Of common prayer. The articles have
been included in the prayer book of
the American church since 1901. and
in the English since the time of the
Reformation, 1855 being the date OF
their inclusion.
The vote for omission was Clerical.

More active participation in the Fed
eral Council of Churches by the Epis-
copal church than proposed by the
house of bishops was voted in the
house of deputies of the general con-
vention.
Women were denied membership in
the house of deputies By an overwhelm-
ing vote.
The women began their effort 10
gain recognition in the legislative body
of the church last week when the depu-
ties voted to give them equal rights
in the home by ordering the word
obey" stricken from the marriage
ritual.
The house Of bishops of the church
at its session defeated a resolution
already passed by the house of depu-
ties which provided for the appoint
ment of women lay readers in the
church.
The move was defeated on the ground
that it would create a large surplus
of lay readers.
The house Of deputies of the Epis-
copal convention STAYED off the ques-
tion of Christian healing until the next
convention. three years hence.

she reached womanhood,
and she suffered dreadfully
every month from cramps,
terrible headaches and pains
in her back. She wouldn't

so nervous she couldn't
