THE CONGREGATIONAL CHRISTIAN CHURCHES
PRINCIPLES OF CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP
The Congregational Christian Churches of the United States by delegates assembled, reserving all the rights and cherished memories of their historic past and affirming loyalty to the basic principles of unity and democracy in church polity, hereby set forth the principles of Chris- tian fellowship immemorially held by these churches.
We hold sacred the freedom of the individual soul and the right of private judgment. We stand for the autonomy of the local church and its independence of ecclesiastical control. We cherish the fellowship of churches, united in district, state and national bodies for counsel and co-operation. Affirming these convictions we hold to the unity of the Church of Christ, and wiU unite with all its branches in fellowship and hearty co-operatiori; and we earnestly seek that the prayer of our Lord for the unity of his followers may be speedily answered. _
We find in the Bible the supreme rule of faith and life, but recognize wide roorn for differ- ences in interpretation. We therefore base our union upon the acceptance of Christianity as primarilj- a way of life and not upon uniformity of theological opinion or any uniform practice of ordinances. (From the preamble of the Constitution of the General Council of the Congrega- tional Christian Churches.)
Form — Congregational Christian Churches are bodies of self-governing Christian believers organized on a democratic basis in close association with a great body of similar churches throughout the world, convenanting together for worship, work, and fellowship.
Origin — Congregationalism has been implicit in Christianity from the beginning, but did not emerge in its present corporate form until in England, in the sixteenth century, the pressure of state control of religious worship forced into separate existence that part of the Church in which Congregational principles were cherished.
The Christian Churches originated spontaneously in several parts of the United States in the latter part of the eighteenth century. In each instance the movement was directed toward freedom from excessive ecclesiastical authority over local churches and ministers.
Principles — The Congregational Churches are characterized by their faith in God, their fellowship in Christ, and their freedom in the Spirit.
Practice — Acknowledging Christ as the only authoritative head of the Church, Congre- gational Christian Churches exalt nothing trivial or sectarian, repudiate dogmatisni and all legis- lative control, ecclesiastical or civil, of the spiritual life, regard a living Christian faith as the only prerequisite for church membership, and seek to develop educational efficiency in the church, evangelistic zeal, and unselfish devotion to the extension of the Kingdom of God.
Achievements — The old world and the new are indebted largely to Congregationalism for the establishment and progress of the principle of religious toleration. Congregationalism sailed to America in the Maj^ower as the church of the Pilgrim Fathers. Settling first at Ply- mouth, then later fusing with the Puritan coloiusts that followed them, these founders of Con- gregationalism spread over New England, and through their democratic ideals laid the foun- dations for the free church, the free state, the free school, and the free social life of our country. The Congregational Churches have been the pioneer Protestant churches of our nation in the promotion of education, missions, evangelism, and in most movements for Christian union, religious progress, and social reform.
While the Christian Church originated later, and therefore did not have the original impact upon the nation's life, and while its numbers and resources have not been so large, its ideals and principles have been identical with those of the Congregational Churches.
Tlie Local Cliurch — The local church is self-administering and is the final arbiter of all questions relating to its own life.
Tlie Association — A church is recognized denominationally by securing membership in some association of churches, usually consisting of from ten to fifty such churches, located in geographical proximity to one another. These associations are for the purpose of mutual stimula- tion, the holding of ministerial credentials for ordained ministers and the performance of com- mon Christian service.
Tiie State Conference — The state or district conference is made up of the churches within its bounds holding membership in the several associations. Mutual helpfulness to all the churches, and as ordinarily organized, the carrying forward of church extension and missionary work within its own borders, are the functions of the conference. Usually the conference main- tains a paid superintendent and a central office.
Tlie General Council — What the State Conference is to the state the General Council is to the nation, with appropriate variations. It also becomes the unifying agency for co-ordinating the organization and work of the missionary societies. (See following pages.)
Year Book, Congregational Christian Churches [1940
GENERAL COUNCIL ORGANIZATION
The General Council of the Congregational Christian Churches was organized on June 27, 1931, at Seattle, Washington, for the purpose of carrying on the functions hitherto performed by the National Council of the Congregational Churches and the General Convention of the Christian Church. The older organizations continue their formal existence for the time being for possible legal requirements. Details of organization will be found on the following pages.
PURPOSE
The purpose of the General Council is to foster and express the substantial unity of the Congregational and Christian Churches in faith, purpose, polity and work; to consult upon and devise measures and maintain agencies for the promotion of the common interests of the King- dom of God; to co-operate with anj' corporation or body under control of or affiliated with the Congregational or Christian Churches or any of them; and to do and promote the work of these churches in their national, international and interdenominational relations, and in general so far as legally possible to perform on behalf of the united churches the various functions hitherto performed by the National Council for the Congregational Churches and by the General Con- vention for the Christian Church, it being understood that where technical legal questions may be involved the action of the separate bodies shall be secured. (Article II of the Constitution.)
FUNCTIONS
As the name indicates, the General Council is a voluntary organization of Congregational and Christian Churches for the purpose of conference regarding their common interests. The central function of the Council is to provide a gathering for useful discussion of questions of con- cern to the churches, and so to furnish inspiration for increased devotion and effectiveness.
Associated with the function of discussion and inspiration is that of the election of officers and agencies for carrying on the common work of the churches. Specifically, the Council provides for gathering and publishing annually the statistics for the churches as given in this Year Book. For the purpose of stimulating fellowship and of co-ordinating the various agencies, offices are maintained with a small staff of secretaries.
MEMBERS
Each State Conference or similar organization of churches is entitled as such to elect four delegates, and four additional delegates for each 5.000 members. In each delegation there is an equal number of ministers and lay people, and of lay men and lay women. Each college and theological seminary recognized by the Council is entitled to one delegate. The Moderator, the Secretaries, the Treasurer and editors of national church periodicals are members ex-officiis.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Between the sessions of the Council an Executive Committee chosen by the Council attends to details of business, arranging for the meetings and submitting programs for the same, and seeks to correlate the administration of the several missionary societies and boards affiliated with the Council in the interest of economy and efficiency. This committee is also the agency for cor- relating the activities of the several Commissions.
COMMISSIONS
The Commission on Evangelism and Devotional Life maintains an office for service to the churches in the vital field indicated by its name. There are several other Commissions, none of them being charged with executive functions to any extent but rather with study and report, each in its own field, with such co-operation with the executive agencies of the denomination as seems feasible.
MISSIONARY SOCIETIES
The American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions and the Board of Home Mis- sions of the Congregational Christian Churches have as their controlling membership the mern- bersliip of the General Council itself. Meeting in separate sessions under the direction of their own officers, the membership of each of these societies is in large majority identical with that of the General Council, so that in matters of common concern action taken by the General Council may usually be taken by each of the societies without further discussion, thus giving unity of operation in matters of common concern and making the missionary societies the instruments of the churches themselves.
MEETINGS
Meetings of the General Council are held biennially in the even numbered years. The next meeting will be held at Hanover, New Hampshire, in June 1942.

A STATEMENT OF SOCIAL IDEALS
Adopted by the National Council of the Congregational Churches of the United States, October 24, 1925.
We believe in making the social and spiritual ideals of Jesus our test for community as well as for individual life; in strengthening and deepening the inner personal relationship of the individual with God, and recognizing his obligation and duty to society. This is crystallized in the two commandments of Jesus: "Love thy God and love thy neighbor." We believe this pattern ideal for a Cliristian social order involves the recognition of the sacredness of life, the supreme worth of each single personality and our common membership in one anotlier — the brotherhood of all. In short, it means creative activity in co-operation with our fellow human beings, and with God, in the everyday life of society and in the development of a new and better world social order. Translating this ideal:
I. Into Education Means:
1. The building of a social order in which every child has the best opportunity for develop- ment.
2. Adequate and equal educational opportunity for all, with the possibility of extended training for those competent.
3. A thorough and scientific program of religious and secular education designed to Chris- tianize everyday life and conduct.
4. Conservation of health, including careful instruction in sex hygiene and home building, abundant and wholesome recreation facilities, and education for leisure, including a nation-wide system of adult education.
5. Insistence on constitutional rights and duties, including freedom of speech, of the press , and of peaceable assemblage.
6. Constructive education and Christian care of dependents, defectives, and delinquents, in order to restore them to normal life whenever possible, with kindly segregation for those who are hopelessly feebleminded. (This means that such institutions as the jails, prisons, and orphan asylums should be so conducted as to be genuine centers for education and health.)
7. A scientifically planned program of international education promoting peace and good- will and exposing the evils of war, intoxicants, illiteracy, and other social sins.
II. Into Industrial and Economic Relationship Means:
1. A reciprocity of service — that group interests, whether of labor or capital, must always be integrated with the welfare of society as a whole, and that society in its turn must insure justice to each group.
2. A frank abandonment of all efforts to secure something for nothing, and recognition that all ownership is a social trust involving Christian administration for the good of all and that the unlimited exercise of the right of private ownership is undesirable.
3. Abolishing child labor and establishing standards for the employment of minors which will insure maximum physical, intellectual and moral development.
4. Freedom from employment one day in seven, the eight-hour day as the present maximum for all industrial workers.
5. Providing safe and sanitary industrial conditions especially protecting women; adequate accident, sickness, and unemployment insurance, together with suitable provision for old age.
6. An effective national system of public employment bureaus to make possible the proper distribution of the labor forces of America.
7. That the first charge upon industry should be a minimum comfort wage and that all labor should give an honest day's work for an honest day's pay.
8. Adequate provision for impartial investigation and publicity, conciliation and arbitration in industrial disputes.
9. The right of labor to organize with representatives of its own choosing and, where able, to share in the management of industrial relations.
10. Encouragement of the organization of consumers' co-operatives for the more equitable distribution of the essentials of life.
12 Year Book, Congregational Christian Churches [1940
11. The supremacy of the service rather than the profit motive in the acquisition and use of property on the part of both labor and capital, and the most equitable division of the product of industry that can be devised.
III. Into Aqriculturb Means:
1. That the farmer shall have access to the land he works, on such terms as will insure him personal freedom and economic encouragement, while society is amply protected by efficient production and conservation of fertility.
2. That the cost of market distribution from farmer to consumer shall be cut to the lowest possible terms, both farmers and consumers sharing in these economies.
3. That there shall be every encouragement to the organization of farmers for economic ends, particularly for co-operative sales and purchases.
4. That an efficient system of both vocational and general education of youths and adults living on farms shall be available.
5. That special efforts shall be made to insure the farmer adequate social institutions, in- cluding the church, the school, the library, means of recreation, good local government, and particularly the best possible farm home.
G. That there shall be a widespread development of organized rural communities, thor- oughly democratic, completely co-operative, and possessed with the spirit of the common welfare.
7. That there shall be the fullest measure of friendly reciprocal co-operation between the rural and city workers.
IV. Into Racial Relations Means:
1. The practice of the American principle of the same protection and rights for all races who share our common life.
2. The elimination of racial discrimination, and substitution of full brotherly treatment for all races in America.
3. The fullest co-operation between the churches of various races even though of different denominations.
4. Educational and social equipment for the special needs of immigrants, with government information bureaus.
V. Into International Relations Means:
1. The removal of every unjust barrier of trade, color, creed, and race, and the practice of equal justice for all nations.
2. The administration of the property and privileges within each country so that they will be of the greatest benefit not only to that nation hut to all the world.
3. Discouragement of all propaganda tending to mislead peoples in their international rela- tions or to create prejudice.
4. The replacement of selfish imperialism by such disinterested treatment of backward na- tions as to contribute the maximum to the welfare of each nation and of all the world.
5. The abolition of military armaments by all nations except for an internal police force.
6. That the church of Christ as an institution should not be used as an instrument or an agency in the support of war.
7. A permanent association of the nations for world peace and good-will, the outlawry of war, and the settling of all differences between nations by conference, arbitration, or by an inter- national court.
We believe it is the duty of every church to investigate local, moral and economic conditions as well as to know world needs. We believe that it is only as our churches themselves follow the example and spirit of Jesus in the fullest sense — translating these social ideals into the daily life of the church and the community ■ — that we can ever hope to build the Kingdom of God on earth.
These affirmations we make as Christians and loyal citizens of our beloved country. We present them as an expression of our faith and patriotism. We urge upon all our citizens the support of our cherished institutions, faithfulness at the ballot, respect for law, and loyal support of its administrators. We believe that our country can and will make a great contribution to the realization of Christian ideals throughout the world.

THE GENERAL CONVENTION OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Organized Windham, Connecticut, 1819, as the General Christian Conference or Conven- tion. United with the National Council of the Congregational Churches, June 27, 1931, at Seattle, Washington. Its corporate life is continued for the time being for the purpose of meeting necessary legal requirements. This has been accomplished by constituting the membership of the Convention of the members of its Executive Committee. Only such officers as are necessary to its operations are maintained.

1940] General Council 17
Organization
1. Membership. T)ie Missions Council consists of tlie thirty-sLx elected members together i^dth the President and the Vice Presidents of The Board of Home Missions, the thirty-six elected members with the President and Vice Presidents of the American Board, and the Secre- tary of the General Council, ex officio.
2. Joint Cabinet. The work of the Missions Council is administered by the Joint Cabinet, thus providing the Executive Secretary with a connecting link to the administrative heads of the National Societies and of the State Conferences.
Article IX of the Rules of the Missions Council provides that the Executive Secretary, the Executive Vice Presidents of The Board of Home Missions and of The American Board, the Associate Executive Secretary who shall be a woman, and one State Superintendent elected by the State Superintendents' Conference as hereinafter provided, shall constitute the Joint Cabi- net of the Missions Council. This Cabinet meets regularly. It is responsible for formulating promotional plans and policies and is the connecting link between the executive boards and the promotional staff.
3. Ad Interim Committee. The Ad Interim Committee is composed of nineteen persons chosen as follows: Four members of The Board of Directors of the Board of Home Missions designated by The Board of Home Missions, four members of the Prudential Committee of the American Board designated by the Prudential Committee, together with the following members ex officiLs, the Chairman of the Missions Council, the President of The Board of Home Missions, the President of the American Board, the members of the Joint Cabinet of the Missions Council, two State Superintendents elected by the State Superintendents' Conference, and the Chairman of the Women State Presidents.
4. Joint Staff. The Joint Staff operates under the chairmanship and direction of the Executive Secretary and includes the secretaries of missionary education and promotion of both the home and foreign boards, with two representatives from the Conference of State Superin- tendents and the Chairman of the Women State Presidents.
Processes
1. Meetings. The Missions Council meets ordinarily but once a year. This mesting takes place in connection with the midwinter gathering of the Board of Directors of The Board of Home Missions and of the Prudential Committee of the American Board, thus economizing in time and travel expenses. At the annual midwinter meeting the Survey Committee of the General Coimcil, the members of the Council for Social Action, the State Conference Superin- tendents, the Women State Presidents and secretaries of the societies sit with the Missions Council in joint session as corresponding members.
2. Literature. One of the important functions of the Missions Council is the pubhcation of literature setting forth our entire missionary enterprise.
3. Field Work. Under the direction of the Executive Secretary the members of the Joint Staff co-operate in a imified program of education and promotion. This work is conducted through the state organizations and endeavors to develop through actual contact with the churches those processes which seem to be most effective for disseminating missionary informa- tion and stimulating benevolent contributions. This process is so intimately related to the financial operations of the local churches that this latter interest is combined with the former, thus helping the churches to financial strength.
Information
The support of our Mission Boards depends upon current gifts, legacies and the income from invested funds. Through the Missions Council, donors, lawyers and trust officers are supplied with confidential and impartial information concerning the financial standing, fields of work, needs and opportunities of any or all Congregational Christian Corporations, in- cluding the General Council and its Commissions, the Home and Foreign Missionary Boards, State Conferences, citj' extension societies and the local churches.
The local church may ordinarily secure information directly from its own state office. Per- sons not knowing to whom to write locally are invited to communicate direct with the Missions Council.

The A. B. C. F. M. is the mother of mission boards in North America. Founded in 1810 to make possible the realization of the vision of the men of the Haystack, it immediately invited the Presbyterian General Assembly to form a similar society with which it could cooperate, but the Assembly replied that one organization of the sort was enough and "urged its churches to adopt the American Board as their foreign missionary agency." The Baptist Missionary Union was formed when some of the first American Board Missionaries became Baptists. By 1826, the Presbyterians and the Reformed Church in America had developed the United Foreign Mission- ary Society, which in that year was merged with the American Board. The process of segmenta- tion began in 1837 when the "Old School" Presbyterians left the American Board, followed in 1839 by the Central and Southern auxiliary boards. In 1846, "because of differences of opinion aa to the Board's attitude toward slavery, some members withdrew to aid in organizing the Amer- ican Missionary Association." In 1857, the Reformed Church in America withdrew to form its own Board and in 1870, the "New School" Presbyterians rejoined their "Old School" associates and transferred their support to the foreign mission board which they had formed.
1940]
National Societies 19
The American Board maintains missions in East, West and South Africa, China, Japan, India, Ceylon, the Philippines, Micronesia, Mexico, Bulgaria, Turkey, Groeoc and Syria. The work in Micronesia is now a part of that in Japan.
In nearly all fields, in spite of reduced appropriations and depleted staff, the work has moved forward, and the people have been ready to take over new responsibilities. In South Africa ex- ploitation, the race issue, and the social effects of industrialization have created many problems. In East Asia war clouds continue to hover, and Ufe is regimented. Christian living is difficult. The serious political developments of recent months have made it necessary to leave on the fields only those men and women who are in vigorous health and able to withstand present and potential hardships, but the work goes on with Chinese and Japanese staffs. New appointments for China are being made to be ready for peace. Nationalism is hindering progress in some countries. The spirit of evangelism is especially strong in the Philippines and in West Africa. And in India the five-year plan is producing results, in church membership and in native leadership. The loss in the number of missionaries still continues, but the native workers have more than held their own. More trained leaders are needed to take over the work started and developed under mis- sionary leadership.
The year closed August 31, 1940 with an operating surplus of $4,753.32 made possible by strict economy in expenditures and the sacrificial giving of 2,300 individual donors who contrib- uted $85,834.30, or $4.39.20 more than last year. The accumulated debt was reduced to $27,775.34. The total income for the year including gifts designated for objects outside the regular budget was $1,037,013.18.
Statistical Summary
The American Board is responsible for a foreign parish of 43,661,817 people. There are 13 missions under 8 difi'erent flags. The missionaries under life appointment are 388 and include 91 ordained men, 38 unordained men, 123 wives and 137 single women. There are 31 associates who are serving for shorter periods, making a grand total of 419 missionaries. The native force of workers is 6,289. The places of service number 2,953. There are 810 organized churches with 119,817 communicants. In 1939, 7,802 members were added to the church roUs. The total Chris- tian community numbers 276,054. There are 1,330 Sunday Schools and 73,154 pupils. The edu- cational work has 44 theological and training schools with 2,898 pupils and 10 colleges with 4,457 students. Below these are 49 secondary and middle schools with 15,538 pupils, 892 primary and elementary schools with 73,034 pupils. The schools of all grades are 995 and the total under instruction is 95,927. The medical statistics show that the Board has 24 hospitals and 39 dis- pensaries, with which are connected 25 physicians and 21 foreign nurses. The records show that there were 41,854 hospital patients and 198,378 dispensary patients. The total treatments were 665,355, or over 1,600 treatments per day. Major operations numbered 3,562; and minor, 7,920. The native contributions for church work were $187,957, and for all purposes $585,440.
FORM OF BEQUEST
I give and bequeath to the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts in 1812, the sum of Dollars.
Woman's Boards of Missions The reorganization of the American Board and the three Woman's Boards took place January 1, 1927. Each of the Woman's Boards continues as a holding company in order to care for funds and to receive legacies written in the name of the Board.
The treasurers respectively are: Woman's Board of Missions, Mr. Frederick A. Gaskins, Miss E. Mabel Plumer, Assistant Treasurer, 14 Beacon Street, Boston; Woman's Board of Mis- sions of the Interior, Mrs. W. T.

The support of the work of The Board of Home Missions depends upon current gifts and the income from invested funds. Bequests and conditional gifts are earnestly solicited.
FORM OF BEQUEST — I give and bequeath to the Board of Home Missions of the Con- gregational and Christian Churches, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the States of Connecticut and New York and of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, incorporated
in 1937, the sum of Dollars to be applied for the
uses and purposes of said corporation.
The Board of Home Missions of the Congregational and Christian Churches has been appointed as agent by each of the following corporations. The field work of these corporations is now administered by this one Board, but the original corporations are still in existence and hold title to their ov n assets. Any bequests, therefore, may run directly to these corporations.
The American Missionary Association
The Association represents the brotherly helping hand of the Congregational Christians stretched out to the disadvantaged groups of America — • particularly the Negro, Indian, Puerto Rican and Southern Highlander. It remains, as it began, a Crusade of Brotherhood standing in a day of race friction and class discrimination for the undiluted application to human relations of Jesus' way of life.
Upon foundations put down in earlier days by the Association there stand today Hampton, Atlanta and Fisk Universities, Berea College. Talladega, Tougaloo, Tillotson and LeMoyne Colleges still depend on the Association for a large share of their support. A substantial appro- priatioQ is made to Dillard University in New Orleans, and a modest grant to Fisk University.

The Annuity Fund for Congregational Ministers provides age annuities for Congregational Christian ministers and incidental protection against the minister's permanent total disability occurring during the years of active service, and for his family in case of his untimely death.
Its resources are derived from payments by the minister himself, contributions of churches and individuals, legacies and conditional gifts and the distributable income of the Pilgrim Memorial Fund.
The amount of annuity at annuity age depends on the accumulations to a member's credit.
Assets, December 31, 1940, $8,248,496; membership including annuitants, 3,631, a net in- crease during the year of 72; annuity payments, $472,918, an increase of $13,017. Contribu- tions in the form of gifts and legacies are urgently needed to help in paying the churches' share of the annuities of the older members. The Annuity Fund for Congregational Ministers has an exceptional place among the private annuity funds for its soundness and its liberal benefits to members.

Fund and death benefits for their widows and minor orphan children.

The Council for Social Action was created by the General Council at Oberlin in June, 1934. The motivating spirit behind that action is clearly indicated in the words of the vote:
"Stirred by the deep need of humanity for justice, security, and spiritual freedom and growth, aware of the urgent demand within our churches for action to match our gospel, and clearly persuaded that the Gospel of Jesus can be the solvent of social as of all other problems, we hereby vote:
" That the General Council create the Council for Social Action of the Congregational and Christian Churches of the United States of America.
" That the purposes of this Council for Social Action shall be to help the churches to make the Christian gospel more effective in society, national and world-wide, through research, education, and action, in cooperation with the Home and Foreign Boards, Conferences and Associations, and local churches. It is proposed that the Council shall increasingly cooperate with the Federal Council of Churches in the creation of a program which shall be genuinely interdenominational. In its research, the Council will aim to be impartial, its only bias being that of the Christian view of life; its educational efforts will be directed primarily toward the local churches but will also envisage the cultivation of pubhc opinion; in action, the Council may, on occasion, intercede directly in specific situations. . . .
"That in launching this Council for Social Action we envisage a new kind of churchman- ship which, enlisting the volunteer services of a group of eighteen outstanding men and women of social vision, wisdom, and Christian purpose, and commanding the services of five or six strong leaders in the fields of international relations, race relations, and economic statesman- ship, will carry the campaign of education and action based on careful research out among our entire constituency at home and abroad. Believing that the church will find itself as it loses it- self in the struggle to achieve a warless, just, and brotherly world, we launch this venture, dedicating ourselves to unremitting work for a day in which all men find peace, security and abundant life."
The Council for Social Action invites each church to organize a local committee or council or Social Action and welcomes the opportunity to co-operate with such local groups in planning for the larger effectiveness of the social program of the church.
The Council for Social Action invites correspondence from ministers and laymen.

The former organization transferred to the new Corporation more than $200,000 worth of real estate and other assets, including land and buildings in Boston and Vineyard Haven and invested funds.
The Society is devoted to the material, social and religious welfare of seamen of all nations. Has finely equipped Bethels at 287 Hanover St., Boston, and at Vineyard Haven, and a reading room at Cape Cod Canal. The Society provides dormitory accommodations, reading and recrea- tion rooms, pool tables, and games of many kinds, a canteen, shower baths, postal and banking facilities, and a check room for seamen's baggage. Free entertainments and religious services are held weekly. Sick, destitute and ship-wrecked sailors are cared for. Books and magazines are placed aboard ships.

Andover Seminary has become affiliated with The Newton Theological Institution to form the new Andover Newton Theological School which is located at Newton Centre, in the vicinity of Boston. The combination of the two schools and the location, in greater Boston, make new and unusual advantages possible for theological students interested in taking their professional study in New England. The combined resources provide for an enrichment of the curriculum and an enlargement of the faculty. The library facilities are unexcelled.
The Andover Newton Theological School in affiliation with Harvard gives the students the privilege of taking any work in Harvard open to theological students and without additional expense. In greater Boston and New England are many of the oldest and most famous of the educational institutions of the country. As Andover Newton is in the midst of them, the students can enjoy the cultural and traditional advantages which bring college and professional students to Boston, not only from all over the country but from all over the world.
The co-operation of the churches in the vicinity offers many opportunities where, on the basis of co-operative scholarships, students can make their way and at the same time gain valua- ble and practical experience. The School offers scholarship grants, as far as it is able, to students dependent upon self-support and seeks to aid in securing for them church positions in which service can be given in return. Special fellowships are awarded to exceptional students.
The School grants three degrees: b. d., s. t. m., and m. r. e. The b. d. is granted after three years' study to students who have had a college course. The M. R. e. is granted to women students with similar preparation after two years' study. The s. t. m. is granted after at least a year of graduate study and the presentation of satisfactory thesis.

The Chicago Theological Seminary, established in 1855 to furnish training for Christian leadership according to the highest academic standards, has been a pioneer in the introduction into the theological curriculum of several unique features designed to meet the changing spiritual needs of succeeding generations. For example, Dr. Graham Taylor was called to the chair of Christian Economics when such a professorship was practically unknown. Recent developments have been in the fields of research in personality problems; in studies of the city and rural churches; in culture through art and drama, literature and music; and in the supervision of the practical work of students with a view to their development as leaders of the institutions of religion in the modern world.
In 1915 the institution removed to the neighborhood of the University of Chicago, with which it is affihated through the Divinity School of the University. Thus Seminary students en- joy the advantages of a University which is internationally known for its high standards and academic productiveness. In June, 1928, the new buildings of the Seminary were completed and dedicated.
The Seminary is open to both men and women on equal terms. A catalog will be gladly sent on request.

The School of Religious Education trains men and women for positions of leadership in the field of religious education, and provides a thorough practical training for lay workers in other forms of church service. A two-years' course for those who have had two years of college work or are graduates of normal school leads to the degree of b. r. e. or b. s. For college graduates a more advanced course is offered, leading to m. r. e., m. a., or ph. d.
The Kennedy School of Missions furnishes Special Missionary Preparation for missionaries, candidates and appointees of all Mission Boards. It has served most of the large Mission Boards of the United States and Canada. Its alumni are in all the great mission fields. Degrees of M. a. and ph. d. are granted for advanced work.

The Graduate School of Theology provides the opportunity for college graduates to get adequate training for Christian service in the ministry of the church, secretaryship of the Young Women's Christian Association or Young Men's Christian Association at home or abroad, for leadership in religious education at home or abroad and for Christian social service in city or country communities. Throughout its history, though independent by charter, Oberlin has sustained the most friendly relationship with Congregational churches and work.
Equipment — In September of 1931 the School of Theology moved into its present quarters. It occupies a group of buildings designed by Mr. Cass Gilbert and made possible b.v the gener- ous gift of two friends of the School, the late Mrs. D. Willis James and Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. The theological group, built in North Italian style, is composed of two buildings connected b.v cloisters to form a quadrangle. One of these buildings is used for classroom, chapel and ad- ministration purposes, and the other for dormitories for single and married students, a refectory, a library, a recreation room and a gymnasium. These buildings compose a quadrangle of unusual beauty and utility. Students in the School of Theology use the main library of Oberlin College which contains 404,715 bound volumes and as many pamphlets. The library files include the leading secular and religious newspapers and the leading monthlies and quarterlies. The Oberlin library is one of the largest college libraries in the United States. The library and seminar rooms in the theological quadrangle house about twenty thousand of the most active books in the theological section and the periodicals required by the theological students. The gymnasium and recreation rooms in the quadrangle are well equipped for physical training and indoor games. The athletic fields and tennis courts of Oberlin College provide amply for outdoor exercise.
Terms of Admission — College graduation and church membership are required. Men and women of any denomination or race are admitted. This year seventeen denominations are repre- sented in the student body.
Degrees in Course — The degree of Bachelor of Divinity is granted at the completion of a three years' course covering ninety semester hours of work chosen from a broad range of courses set up in a curriculum which recently has been restudied and revised. The degrees of Master of Arts and Master of Theology are also offered.
Special Assets — Students in the Graduate School of Theology have the advantage of being a part of the student body of one of the most cosmopolitan colleges in America. They share in the university privileges and the scholarly standards and fine Christian ideals of Oberlin. Oberlin is a center of unique and broad missionary interests, and has contributed largely to the mission- ary forces of the Congregational Church. The Oberlin Conservatory of Music is one of the leading conservatories of the world, and makes available unusual musical advantages. Oberlin is equipped with a splendid Art Building, a fine Art Library which includes a collection of over 60,000 stereopticon art slides. Living expense is moderate and scholarships with the opportunities for self-help in the community make complete self-support possible.

46 Year Book, Congregational Christian Churches [1940
ANNUAL STATISTICS OF THE CHURCHES
See pages 413-414 for last minute revisions.
The statistics are collected by the Registrars of the conferences and compiled in the offices of the General Council. They are of date of January 1, 1941, and cover the year 1940. Changes in pastorates are corrected as far as reported until copy is complete. Such revisions and author's corrections in statistics are not involved in the summaries. Correspondence should be ad- dressed to the Registrars of the conferences.
The schedules are arranged by conferences rather than by geographical state lines. For ex- ample, all the states in the Middle Atlantic Conference are listed under "Middle Atlantic," but with subheads for each state. The conference summaries are given at the end of the schedules.
Persons noting errors are earnestly requested to report the same, especially when the mis- takes involve benevolent contributions. Here it should be noted that money received in any national, district or state office to and including January 10, is credited to the preceding year unless otherwise requested.
The first name in the list of churches is usually the name of the town or city in which the meeting house is located. This is also the name of its post office unless followed by a name in heavy-faced type. If this postal word is an adjective it goes with the preceding name, e.g., Newton, West, signifying West Newton. If itself a name it supersedes the other, as "Newton, Auburndale," meaning Auburndale in the town of Newton.
Reference marks are used as follows:
y Pastor serves more than one church. (See list of yoked churches in Conference Summary.)
[] Around a pastor's name signify he is not in full standing as a Congregational or Chris- tian minister, nor a denominational licentiate, nor an approved lay preacher.
i Pastor installed by Council.
r Pastor recognized by Council.
§ For address see alphabetical list.
— No answer can be given.
c Sunday School membership includes Cradle Roll.
# Contribution amounts to less than 50 cents.
z Includes under "Other Gifts" contributions to objects similar to Nat'l. Soc. causes; under "Am. Board" gifts through Board for Armenian work, amount being in- cluded for totals of church under "Other Gifts."
* Value of church property includes parsonage.
II When a church has made no report, items of membenship in church, Sunday School and young peoples' organizations, also home expense and value of property, are inserted from the previous Year Book and marked |1 in the first column of the statistical report. This is done that these items may be included in the summaries and comparative tables, thus minimizing the danger of falsifying the comparisons. All apportionment figures are from societies' reports.
The tables are not a postal guide. For addresses of ministers and clerks refer to alphabetical lists in the back of the book. Names of Sunday School superintendents, church treasurers, treas- urers of benevolence and chairmen of boards of trustees, are on file in state offices, as are also certain other data.
Under church "Members" the number "Absent" are included in the "Total." Amount of "Home Expenses" includes all salaries, together with missionary aid received, operating ex- penses and repairs for church, Sunday School, choir and parish. Cost of new buildings and im- provements paid for during 1940 are not included, but churches which report this item are listed by church number at end of each conference schedule.
Information regarding "Budgeted Apportionment," Unbudgeted Apportionment" and "Other Gifts" appears on page 246. Contributions to the Committee for Assistance to War Victims are included under "Other Gifts."
A Summary of the German Conference appears on page 76. The churches constituting this Conference are recorded, together with their statistical data, in the various state conferences with which they hold fellowship.
The Summaries give important data by conferences in Table I and national data by years in Table II. The less important items appear in the supplemental summary. Additional totals appear in footings of conference schedules.
