The first of a series of meetings of the Young People's Society of the Church of the Epiphany. at which the proposed changes in the “Book of Common_ Prayer” will be discussed, will be held at the church tomorrow afternoon at 6:30 o'clock. Miss Margaret Sherman Burt, leader of the first meeting, will have for her subject the proposed changes in the services of morning and evening pravers, .prayers and thankskiving and the litany. A social hour will be held following the meeting. This series of discussions, which will embrace every proposed change in the “Prayer Book.' was started by Rev. Raymond Wolven, assistarmt rector, and has aroused a great deal of interest among not only the young people but the older parishioners of the church. It is deemed likely that suggestions offered by the youns people will be put into shape and presented to one of the committees at the gemeral convention in Port- land Oregon. ‘Wldespread interest has resulted from the proposal to change certain Bervices in so far as ritual is con- cerned. and the younger people of the local diocese have shown interest to the extent of making certain sugges- tions for consideration at Portland. It was due to this that Mr. Wolven decided to have the meetings in or- der to give the voung people an op- rortunity to voice their own views regarding the changes. It is to be remembered, the minister the young people of today backbone of the church of tomorrow and should be given an opportunity 1o present their own views regarding any changes which might be made in services.

It is to be understood. the instructions say. that the meetings are to be entirely voluntary and that bishops are not bound to attend either in person or by representative. It is also to be understood, the instruction: at the decisions of the bishops hese meetings have nothing in common with conciliar legislation. which is governed by a preseript of | the sacred canons. The meetings are to be merely for friendly conference about measures of common public in- terest for the safeguarding of the church's work in the United States.

It is suzgested that the bishops consider the advisability of changing | the name the “National Catholic Wel- | fare Council” to the “National Catho- lic Welfare Committee,” as the use of the word council, it is thought, is-open to some misunderstanding. The | bishops in their general meeting are to choose the administrative commit- tee of the council as heretofore. Those who are selected to serve on this committée will hold office from meeting to_meeting and must make reports to the hierarchy. The administrative committee of the National Catholic Welfare Council met in Chicago on August 12 to con- sider the new decree, and, acting in accordance with it, have arranged for a_meeting of the bishops at Catholic University on September 27 and 28.

The united thank offering was instituted in 1889. 1In| that year the total offering amounted to $2,188.64. Three years later itl amounted to $56,198.35. The $100,000 ! was reached in 1901, and three years later it went out to $150,000. Thus, | by leaps and bounds, the triennial gift increased until, at the last gen- | eral convention of the church at De- troit, the auxiliary’s gift, handed to | the church on this historic alms basin, | totaled $465,060.41.
