In the United Church, a few yards to the north the Women's Home Mis- sionary Federation opened its annual meeting at the same morning hour. The council session was followed by the business meeting of the Congre- gational Sunday School and Publish- ing society. Recommendations First Business, The first matters taken up were recommendations submitted by the executive committee in which cer- tain subects on which discussions at length are expected, such as church unity, evangelism, temperance and finances were made the order for spe- cial times. Rev. Raymond Calkins of Cambridge, Mass., for the commission on comity, federation and unity, in a report said that the commission’s ac- tivities had been directed to the sup- port on behalf of the Congregational churches of the federal council of the Churches of Christ in America. Actual working co-operation exists among the great maority of American Protestant churches which are being | welded together in *‘an expression of the Christian conscience of the mil- This Mo THESE MEN MAY BE ENVOYS TO AND FROM MEXICO | lions of Christian people whom they represent.” The federal council offi- cially unites in their activities 138,- 000 churches with 17,000,000 mem- bers, Reports on Church Unitey. Rev. William H. Ward reported on the movements towards union with other denominations saying that a plan of union with the United Breth- ern and the Methodist Protestants which 'have been accepted by a ma- ority of their local conference seem almost certain of adoption at their forthcoming general conferences. The report further said that organic union is a world movement. In the mis- sion flelds union is making rapid progress. It has come to be the rule that kindred denominations working in any country must unite their churches into one national body. The existence at present of over one hun- dred denominations is not creditable to American Protestantism. This gives a sting to every criticism by the Roman Catholic church. Surely it is time for Congregationalists to do their part in reducing the divisions of Protestant Christendom Exccutive Committee Reports. Rev. Dr. C. F. Carter of Hartford, Conn., ag chairman, reported for the executive committee which made these recommendations, which among others were adopted: Placing the council's accounting on the basis of the calendar year; to have churches make a per capita contribution of four cents each year on gross mem- bership for council expenses; that council commissions be those on evangelism, social service, Treligious education, comity, federation and amity, public worship and temperance, each with a membership of seven; that the executive committee try to gecure uniformity of nomenclature in states having double organization, that fellowship churches make pro- vision for observance of the 400th an- ersary of Protestant reformation, October 31, 1917, and that the ten- centenary of the Pilgrims landing be observed. Rev. Hubert C. Herring of Boston was re-elected secretary of the coun- cil. The following were olected: Execu- tive committee for four years, Her- bert J. Brown, Portland, Me., O. J. Hill, Kasas City, Mo., and D. M. Ferry, Detroit; commission on mis- sions for your years: Arthur L. Ship- man, Connecticut, Burton Payne Gray, Massachusetts, David P. Jones, Min- nesota, President H. C. King, Ober- lin college, Ohio, Roger Leavitt, fowa, Albert Parker Fitch, Massachusetts and Rev. Lewis T. Reed, New York; for two years to fill vacancies, H. W. Darling, Kansas, Rev. Archibald Had~ don, Michigan, and Frank Kimball, Iliinois. On the same board from | societies, Rev. E. M. Noyes, Massa- chusetts from the American board, Dyer B.

London, Oct. 21, 3:48 a. m.—The Dadly Chronicle says it understands that Great Britain has communicated to her allies her offer of the Island of Cyprus to Greece, and that the offer is now under consideration by the Greek government. The paper in an editorial says: “The mass of the Greek nation is not behind M. Zaimis (the Greck premier) but behind M. Venizelos (the former premier) and in order that its will may prevail over German influ- ence in high places at Athens the allies must give tangible evidence of two things—their good will toward Hellenism and their power. As a proof of good will they have offered Cyprus. “The offer is a notable one, not only tecause of its magnitude but because we are offering something already in our hands to give, and if the Greek nations allows the Zaimis government to reject the world will have to re- vise its views of tthe seriousness of Hellenic aspirations.” SHELLS FROM INDIA, Shipment Sent to Allles From Brit- tish Posession.

We made eighty prisoners, four of whom were officers, and the rest of the Austrian garrison fled. Occupy Heights. “In the Lagarina valley we com- pleted our action of the 18th by con- quering the heights north and north- east of Brassano, also defended by many strong entrenchments. From San Bernardo, on Mount Diaena, the enemy attempted by a violent artillery fire to dislodge us from the positions we occupied, but without success- “On the upper Cordevole the attack continued throughout yesterday which made us masters of Sief, on the slopes of Col di Lana. In the Falzarego zone our Alpines reached Piceolo and Lagazuof.
