THE PRE8BYTBBI4
To the Women
By Met ji. W. c. WiNf\
.Most excellent suggestions have recently
been made to the Missionary
Women of our Church toy the Assembly's
Committee on Woman's Work and
the Woman's Council. If studied and ,
adopted by our women, the result will
be a wonderful increase in the efficiency
of our organizations. Let us consider
some of them.
1. That we include iu our work all
of the departments of the Church.
In the past our Societies have worked
for and contributed only to the Home
and Foreign Departments of our Church
work.
The Bristol Assembly directed that we
Bhould broaden our horizon and include
all the work of the Church in our study
and offerings. This means much educational
work on the part of our leaders.
A closer Btudy is urged of the
agencies through which our church is
accomplishing her great 'Missionary
Program. This will reveal the distinctively
missionary features of each department.
The Committee of Publication
and Sunday School Extension at Rich
mond and the Committee or Christian
Education and Ministerial Relief at
lx>uisville, have prepared especial leaflets
explaining their work, for the use
of societies and individuals. Send for
these and give them wide distribution
in your church.
We are not only to study these departments
but we are asked to give to
all of them of our gifts, in the proportion
directed by the General Assembly:
60 per cent., Foreign; 21 per cent., Assembly's
Home Missions; 14 per cent.,
Christian Education and Ministerial Relief,
and 5 per cent. Publication and
Sunday School Extension. This will
mean that all Societies, Presbyterlals
and Synodicals will have to change their
constitutions.
You are asked by the Assembly's
Committee to appoint among your officers,
a secretary to represent each of
the four departments; Secretary of Assembly's
Home Missions, Secretary of
Foreign Missions, Secretary of Ohrls
tian Education and Ministerial Relief
and Secretary of Young People and
Sunday School Work.
You will notice that the first-named
is responsible for the Assembly's Home
Mission only. You will need to have also
the Secretary of local Home Missions,
who wiil Include in her department all
Synodical and Presbyterial Home Mission
Work. Model suggestive constitutions
for Presbyterials and Societies
are in preparaton at this office and will
be gladly furnished on request.
2. 20 per cent, increase in gifts on the
part of every member of every Society:
Urgent calls are coming to us from all
ikn ~ 9 ^.1. 11 o
Ui iuu ill IDOlUli IICIV19 u L UUI VUUlbU, ftl
home and abroad, for more workers and
better equipment. Shall we be content
to do no more this year than last?
A definite goal was set for us by the
Woman's Council in session at 'Montreal,
an increase of 20 per cent, ir
gifts, all along the line.
Will not the individual who gave $5.00
last year, give $6.00 this year? If all of
the members of a Society do this then
the Society which gave $1,000 last year
will reach $1,200 this, and the same
proportion will prevail in the records of
Synodlcals and Prea'byterialg.
Let every officer, in every organization
feel personally responsible for urging
this on the Individual members of
the Society and be content with nothing
less than 20 per cent, increase over
last year's record.
8. 10 per cent. Increase In membership
of the Societies.
There Is no earnest society of ten

members which cannot add oae member
to its roll. Cannot the Society of fifty
members canvass the church roll am.
add five new names? This seemB u
small thing to do, but it every society
in the church will carry out this nlan
and add 10 per cent, to its membership,
the close of the fiscal year will find
more than six thousand new names enlisted
under the banner of missions.
Isn't it worth working for?
4. To the Presidents of Preshjterials:
(a) Will you not make an especiai
effort to urge new Societies in your
Presbyterial? Make a careful study of
the churches in your Presbytery, which
have no Society and do not let the year
close without a faithful effort to establish
in each one a live Mlssionary
Society. This may be done in different
ways in different localities. Sometimes
the President can go in person, often
the Presbyterial visitor is the agent;
frequently some efficient woman living
within readh of the needy church can be
commissioned to go to them and assist
in organizing. The responsibility is
yours, as president of the Presbyterial.
Study, plan and pray about the matter.
(b) It is urged that you co-operate
promptly and cordially with the Treasurer
of the Woman's Auxiliary, Mrs. A.
W. Howison, Staunton, Va. She was appointed
by the Assembly's Committee to
direct the financing of the department
of Woman's Work for the two years,
during which the Auxiliary has undertaken
the duty and desires the hearty
co-operation of all of the women. See
that the societies in your Presbyterla!
do their part in meeting thlB obligation.
5. To the Corresponding Secretaries:
Will you not send to this office
promptly once a year your complete report
with list of your officers and time
and place of meeting
L<et the Society send this in April,
with copy of Year Book or Program, if
possible.
The reports of Presbyterials and Synodicals
should be sent immediately after
annual meeting. You cannot afford to
neglect this. We are organized to help
you. We cannot do It unless you cooperate
with us in giving us required
reports and names of officers. Blanks
for these reports will soon be mailed to
you.
6. To tlie Teasurers:
(a) You are asked to devlBe some
plan "by which your Synodical President
will be enahled to attend the annual
meeting of the Woman's Council.
At these meetings the Assembly's
Committee meets with the Council and
