PRESBYTERIAN GAIN IS THE GREATEST JN HISTORY OF CHURCH Additional Members 54,961 in Last Fiscal Year; More Ministers Ordained.. , Presbyterian church growth last year broke all records in all directions. Reports tabulated for the church year,, ehow a membership of 1,513,046, an Increase of 54,961 last year. This is the greatest increase ever made by this church in a single year by other than consolidation, and it fol lows a year when 110,000 persons were examined by elders with a view to membership. This -last figure is larger by 25,000 than ever applied for Pres byterian membership since there was a Presbyterian church in America. Ttfore Ministers Added. Some years ago there was an un usual rise in Presbyterian figures through union of the Cumberland branch, but last year's figures for the year and for all years broke even"the record of the Cumberland year. The number of ministers is largest, and so is the number of Sunday school pupils. Within the last 10 years the Presby terian church has added 500,300 to its membership, and 350.000 to its Sunday schoql rolls. More new ministers were ordained last year than in any other year in its history, and the number of its ministers 9670 is the largest since the church was formed. Finances Keep Apac-e. Finances keep apace with numbers in the same church. The total gifts of the 1,513,000 Presbyterians now reach $27,784,000, a gain of $10,000,000 in the last 10 years. In lines of spe cific effort last year's receipts break the records in several directions. Home missions fell just a little under $2. 000,000, and foreign went to $1,812,000, both of them high water figures save the foreign in 1911, when a single be quest sent receipts to almost $2,500, U00. The educational, the church erec tion and freedman funds also broke all records. . Eight of the months covered by these reports were those covered also by the European war period. Social Partakes Nature of Farewell On Thursday evening in the First Congregational church, was held the monthly church-at-home service and social. The meeting was conducted by Rev. A. Binkhorst, who is soon to leave Portland to assume his .duties as pastor of the First Congregational church of Tucson, Arizona.

A movement is on foot to create the American Methodist church. If successful, as now seems prob able, it will mean a body of 6,000,000 actual members, possibly 8.000,000, or a Methodist population of 18,000,000 to 20,000,000, or the largest religious body in America. While there Is opposition in some quarters, especially in the north, de tails are being Ironed out, it is said, and the plan is more than likely to go through. Split Was Over Slavery. American Methodism was split over slavery, the break coming as early as 1844, at a general conference held in New York city. Now the unique plan is proposed, and already approved by Methodists South, of creating one Methodist ' church that has four parts to it. Each of the parts wifl have its distinct board of bishops, and its own quadrennial conference. Then over all will be a supreme body, composed of delegates from the four general ones. The plan is not a merger of Method ism, but the reorganization of all and the creation of a wholly new American Methodist church. The four bodies proposed are the white Methodists of the- south, the col ored . Methodists of t he south, the Methodists of the east and the .Meth odists of the west. Would Divide Northern Body. Opposition has come from sorrte quarters over what looks like a di vision of the great northern body of Methodists as at present constituted, but it is said to be the growing opin ion that east and west involve such distances if not differences that for mere matters of administration bish ops and a general conference for each will save time and expense, and lead to closer supervision and larger growth. The question of general boards, so far as determined, favor one of each kind for all American Methodism. Presence of Eastern Pastor Significant One of the prominent men in the Presbyterian ministry will occupy Westminster Presbyterian pulpit to morrow morning when Dr. George A. Liggett- of Springfield, N. J., preaches. Whether this is significant or not, It is interesting to note that Dr. Henry Marcotte, the pastor of the church, still has under consideration an offer of an important office in the national educational branch of the church and is, it is stated, holding the Westmin ster pastorate only for the present. Dr. Liggett will remain in Portland for the next fortnight and will be heard from the First Presbyterian pul pit on Sunday, August 15. Los Angeles Pastor To Supply Pulpit if' "God's Providence in the Affairs of Men," will be the topic of a sermon to morrow by Rev. J.
