2 C TlEARST'S SUNDAY AMERICAN. ATLANTA, GA„ SUNDAY, MAY 11, 1913. J REV."CHARLES A. MACHINE POLITICS BARRED Continued From Page 1. preacher. Hi* theater meetings on Sunday In Pittsburg: have become famous. One Nominating Speech. Only one speech nominating a can didate for moderator ran be made, limited to 10 minutes, and only one speech, and that not to exceed 5 minute, can be made in aeconding the nomination of a c andidate. I’reabyterianisni haH always had more or less to do with the Gov- ernment of the United States in the sense that it furnished a large per centage of its leaders. This is par ticularly true with regard to the present administration, as President Wilson, Vice President Thomas R. Marshall and Hecretary William Jen nings Bryan arc prominent elders in the Presbyterian churches of which they are members. There are also other members of the Cabinet who are Presbyterians. No doubt this fact will be mentioned not a few’ times at the coining assembly, but it has long been boasted by the Pres byterians of this country that the form of the United States Govern ment bad its origin in the* Presby terian church. Indeed, it is almost an exact copy of the system which has been in operation in the Presby terian Church since iin organisation. The General Assembly is the high est judicatory of the Presbyterian Church. Besides the assembly there are oth er Judicatories in the \arious Htates, cities and more local groups, hut in every case the form of government is thoroughly representative of the people-, and thoroughly democratic in Its administration, anil the represen tatives in every Judioatory are made up equally of ministers and laymen, excepting In the local church, where it is made up entirely of laymen, with the minister as presiding officer. In view of this fact, the possibilities In an average General Assembly are great when it comes to a question of doing things quickly and thoroughly, for here It is actually believed that "the voire of the people is the voice of God." With the Presbyterians nothing ever "happens’ It has been "predestined" from the beginning of time, but in spite of this apparent fatalistic* view, the most thorough democracy of opinion prevails at a General Assembly, for the commis sioners have Just as profound a oon- \iction Vith regard to the doctrine of the free will" of man. With such a combination there is the utmost lib erty ami confidence in legislative af fairs, as well a« a grimness which makes the proceedirigs of an assem bly very real. Presbyterian Women Also Hold National Conventions The work of over a thousand wom en, local and visiting, will be one of the biggest features of the great gen eral assemblies of the Presbyterians opening in Atlanta next Thur?duy. Besides lending their support to the various religious movements and at tending the general night gatherings nt the Auditorium and the social fea tures of the week, they will have sep arate assemblies all their own. These assemblies will go on at the same ’iine as the sessions of the ministers, but In different buildings. This is carrying out the usual custom ob served by the Presbyterian women’s general organizations to meet yearly in the same city and on the same davs as the national assemblies of their laymen As early as Tuesday women dele gates and missionaries from all parts of the United States will begin to arrive, and according to local ma trons, they ar** going to be royally entertained 'W hile they are here. They will be met at the station by Atlanta hostesses, who will pin badges on them and take them under their wings, as it were. Two Assemblies of Women. The missionaries—about twenty in number—will be entertained directly in Atlanta homes, as well us a group of fourteen women composing the Synodical Board of the Southern Presbyterian Church. As is usual, the expenses of regular de-legates will be paid by their home bodies sending them as representatives, but local women have spotted boarding houses and hotels for them and will see to it that they are escorted or directed to them in proper style. There will be two women’s assem blies—the Presbyterian IT. S. A., or Northern, and the Southern Presby terian The United Presbyterian or ganization for some reason set its general meeting at a later date and in another city. Tlu* organization of the Southern Presbyterian women is known as the Women's Council, and its sessions will be closed, ns is customary. They will crowd their program into three days, ami w ill begin Wednesday, a day ahead of the- men's general as semblies and the women of the* Northern Presbyterian Church, and end their sessions Friday afternoon. These meetings will be in the North Avenue Church house, which adjoins ihe church where the Southern Pres byterians will be meeting. Northern Presbvtenan Women. Tiie Northern Presbyterian Wom en will have a lengthier program, ex tending from Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock to the Tuesday afternoon following. Their organizations to be represented are the Women’s Boards of both home and foreign missions, and these meetings, which will be op^n to the public, will be in the Central Congregational Church, in close proximity to the Baptist Tab ernacle. where the Northern Presby terian men will awsemh’e. While it is necessary to meet in separate organization s. one Atlanta woman sa iid Saturday: ' V, | ■ that we’n not going to feel at all lurch peoples— ? separate cl don't you believe it! We women are going to have one jj rreat organized good tim« • together!’’ For thi s reason a large luncheon at which both the delegates and mis sionaries of the Northern and South ern Presbyterian women will be guests, has been arranged at the Piedmont Driving Club Saturday at 1 o’clock. As this is the day set for the large reception to both men and women of the general assemblies, the Women will go immediately from the clun u> Agr.ci; Scott College. The luncheon is to he a beautiful affair, and has been arranged under the su pervision of Mrs. John Grant and a committee of women she appointed to assist her in making it a success. Luncheon at Capital City. Another social function of promi nence will her a luncheon Friday at 1 o'clock at the Capital City Club to be given especially for the fourteen women of the Southern Presbyterian Synodical Board, representing as many States. The hostesses will be 25 women of the exee*utive commit tee of the local Southern Presbyterian Society. Mrs. Clyde King is direct ing the affair. It will be followed by an automobile ride around Atlanta. While the women offered their services, they will not this year serve lunch in the basements of the va rious churches where the men’s as semblies are in session. The space was required for displays of litera ture and other church features. 7 he women will have a special home ajid foreign missionary exhibit in the Central Congregational Church. In it will be shown the work done by children of mission schools throughout the United States and abroad. Miss Margaret Rue, of Phil adelphia. will arrive Monday to be gin the placing of It. A large number of prominent wom en will be among theme here to at tend the conclaves. Miss Margaret Hodge. of Philadelphia. known throughout the country, will be one of the speakers on Foreign Mission Day, which will be Monday, at the Central Congregational Church.

Lack of Men to Join Clergy Is Presbyterian Trouble Among many important reports that will be submitted to the general assembly of the Southern Presbyterian Church in meeting in Atlanta will be one from the exeuiivo committee of the Christian Education ami Ministerial Relief. It will dwell on the problem created hv the marked lack in the last 10 years of young men entering the ministry of all Protestant denominations. There has been a growing real ization by all denominations that the fund provided to aid worthy young men studying for the min istry and the fund provided for the livelihood of retired minis ters are far from adequate. It is probable that funds provided by the Southern Presbyterian Church are larger than those of a number of other denominations in the South, but the church is reminded from year to year that they arc not what they should be. In the past twelve years the num ber of candidates for the Presbyte- \ rian ministry has increased steadily from year to veer, but contribution? from the church to aid a large num ber of these candidates have been fluctuating and have not kept pace i with the needs of the work. The re quirement of all candidates for the ministry >s that they take a college course of four years and course of three years in a theological semi nary before beginning the* regular work of the church as ordained min isters. Committee Aids 303. This year 303 candidates have been recommended for aid in the work of completion of their education. This recommendation was made to the executive committee of Christian Ed ucation and Ministerial Relief. A signed statement that each is in actual need of assistance accompanied every request for aid from the com mittee. Each candidate is promised aid to the amount of $100 a year until hie schooling is completed. but the amount of money received from the church by the- committee this year for this purpose has not been suf ficient to allow the committee to pro vide candidates with more than $70. The committee is making special ap peal to the church In the interest of. this fund with the hope that before the* meeting of the general assembly they may send the full amount lo each candidate. Rev. Henry H. Sweets, D.D., of Louisville, Ky., is secretary of the executive committee of Christian Ed ucation and Ministerial Reiief. He devotes his entire time to this spe cial work. There have been 492 ministers or dained in the Southern Presbyterian Church in the past ten years and 169 ministers received from other church es, making a total gain of ministers 661. In the same period of years 305 ministers have died, 42 have been retired and 77 have been dismissed, making the total loss to the church 424. This leaves a net gain of 237 ministers. New Churches Number 363. The net gain of churches in this denomination during the past ten years has been 363. In this time 663 churches have been organized and 300 dissolved. There are 735 vacant churches in the Southern Presbyterian Church this year and. there have been op portunities for organizing 275 new churches, making 1010 the number of churches without asters this year. In addition to ministers needed for woVk at home maqV are needed also for work in the s< veil foreign mis sion fields of the c. urch, as only 98 missionaries wnt tc these fields by the church this yeal have been or dained. There is n^ed for an in crease of 410 men to the ministry of the church immediitely. for home and foreign mission work. 210 for work in the home mission fields and 200 for work in foreign mission fields. The report of the executive com mittee will emphasize all of these needs to the general a Memblv. It is estimated that the rale of increase of candidates for the min istry is one candidate fur every four ministers, seven churcaes and 630 members* PRETTY GIRLS 10 TAG’ FDR CHARITY Continued From Page One. one cent, five cents, ten cents or ninny dollars as you please. Some of the tag ladies have been known to take in several hundred dollars for tagging, and last year over $5,000 was raised for the benefit of the little children whose mothers and sinters and grandmothers have to go out and make a living. These little children are being given a chance In life, and with this tag money they are provided with lunches, dinners the heat is stifling or the air im pure. Tag Oay, Holiday. Tag Day has become a holiday in Atlanta since it v as started several years ago. Other organizations have tried to follow the idea with variou and careful attentions when their proper guardians are pegging away at some loom or in some shop where enterprises but there has never been, and never will be, but one Tag Day for this city, and that is the one the Sheltering Arms women provide for the public in flower-blooming time each year.

The three General Assemblies will hold business sessions during the day in separate churches of the city and certain evenings joint meetings will be held In the City Auditorium, which has a seating capacity of 7,000. Mem bers of the different assemblies will address the joint meetings on topics j of interest to all of the bodies.

While the General Assemblies are In session, the annual meeting of the Council of the Women’s Missionary j Society of the Southern Presbyterian Church will be held in Atlanta at the j Harris Street Presbyterian Church. | Gavels of Historic Interest. Gavels have been made for the use of the Moderators of the three As semblies and these will prove of his toric as well as interesting value. The gavel for the Moderator of the Southern Presbyterian Assembly is made of wood from several points of special interest to the church—from the First Presbyterian Church at Au gusta, Ga., where the first General Assembly of the church was held, from the old Midway Church in Lib erty County, Ga., where the first Presbytery and first ordination in Georgia were held, from the room in in Thalian Hall, Oglethorpe Univer sity, that was occupied by the poet, Sidney Lanier, and from a tree plant ed by President Talmage. The gavel for the Moderator of the Northern Presbyterian Assembly is made of wood from the First Presby terian Church at Newburyport, Mass, founded by George Whitefleld, where he preached, and under the pulpit of which he is buried. Combined with this is wood where Whitefleld’® Beth- fteda stood, near Savannah. Banded With Gold. Wood taken from a building of what is claimed to be the first Theo logical Seminary on this continent, at Service. Pa.. Is that from which the gavel for the Moderator of the Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church has been made. One has been made aleo for the presiding officer of the Joint meeting* of the three assemblies. Thia one is made of wooa from seminary build ings at Service, Pa., Princeton, N. J., Hampden Sydney, Va., and Due Weat, S. C., recognized as the four oldest Theological Seminary buildings. Around each gavel is a band of Geor gia gold and on each band Is a suit able inscription. The Assembly of tht* year will b# the fifty-third General Assembly of the Southern Presbyterian Church and this will be the third Assembly of that church to be held in Atlanta, one having been held here in 1882 and another in 1900.
