CHURCH CONFERENCE ON PORTLAND CLASSIS OF REFORMED DENOMINATION BEING HELD. Portland Jurisdiction Represent Largely Home Missions TlionBTn Some Congregatlona Pay Way. The Portland classis or conference of the Riformed Church in the United States is in convention at the Third Reformed Church, at Lents. This Is the thirty-seventh annual meeting of the classis. The meeting Is important not merely because of the routine business and of receiving reports from the vari ous congregations constituting the classis. but because it celebrates the quarto-centenary of the founding of the Reformed Church. The Reformed Church is one of the two great churches of the Reformation of the sixteenth century, whence also its name. This great historic church did not originate in the desire of es tablishing a new and separate church, but because a revival was sought of the old church which had existed since the. days .of the apostles. Against what many believe'd to be abuses in the church the Reformers arose. Luther in Germany and Zwingli in Swlt'.erland, were the leaders. The Reformed Church grew strong in Switzerland and spread thence, to nearly all parts of the world. The various Reformed and Presbyterian synods are represented in the council of the Reformed Churches In America and their membership totals millions. Ulric Zwingli lost his life in the battle of Cappel. but others carried on the work begun by him. Prominent a.ong them were Bullinger. Farel, Calvin, Beza, Knox and A. Lasco. The Portland classis represents for the most part a field of home mis sions, although it has within its bounds a number of well-established self supporting congregations. There will be three special services on Sunday, and lu the afternoon there will be missionary rally. SLOOP FUNERAL IS TODAY Accident Victim Will Be Burled at Damascus.
