order has been approved by the assembly The assembly has decreed that the lang10e of Caesar and Cicero In truth a dead language should not be employed in the church laws or books In paragraph 76 of the book of church order the Latin phrase "ex animo" was stricken out and the English word "sincerely" substituted The ad interim committee on revision which recommended this change said: "Your committee believes that English equivalents should be substituted for all Latin phrases in the book Latin is being less used than formerly and Latin phrases fail to convey any meaning to a great many people" The proposed change adopted by the assembly together with other changes in the book of church order must be referred to the presbyteries for final approval before they can become the law of the church An effort has been made by the assembly to raise and to fix more clearly the standards of educational requirements for candidates to the ministry The committee felt it should enunciate these standards "in these days when the tendency is to lower educational requirements" The paragraph adopted on this point reads: "A candidate for licensure shall be required to present a diploma of bachelor or master of arts from some approved college or university or authentfc testimonials of having taken a regular course of academic studies A candidate for ordination shall also be required to present a diploma from some approved theological seminary or at least authentice testimonials of having gone through a regular course of theological studies" Changes in the ordination and installation of ministers ruling elders and deacons attending the constitution cf the church congregational meetings and the rules of discipline are yet to be decided on 1 0 A Continucd on Last Page I 1 Part of

subscribed to it at the hands of the chief justice of your supreme court and I have done so of my own free will and without any mental reservation whatsoever It completes the orderly processes by which a free people have nominated and elected and installed their governor and binds me now and henceforth as their servant to move forward to the performance of those things which shall count for their welfare and their happiness And It binds you too my people who by a majority of nearly 35000 have commissioned me as your leader after a campaign in which I have carried to every hamlet and

compliment paid me by the individual voters fthis Mate for not one anywhere or at any time ever asked an explanation or ever heckled me with a single question And so I believe I have the right to say
