SECT TENETS NOT VII 111 MISSIONS Dr. Mullowney Says Principals of Christianity Are All Important That the churches attempting to carry the Gospel to the Chinese should not teach the tenets of their sects, but should try to teach them the prin ciples of Christianity only, is the opinion expressed by Dr. John J. Mul lowney, assistant chief medical in spector of the State Department of Health, speaking at the annual ban quet of the Men's Brotherhood of Covenant Presbyterian Church last night Dr. Mullowney was a teacher for four years at the Union Medical Col lege of North China at Peking. He saw the interior of China in his work for the Red Cross Society during the Chinese revolution. He said the ex penditure of money by the American churches in building schools of "higher education" !s wrong, in his opinion, as the Chinese can take care of them selves, and the money could better be spent for spreading the gospel by printed matter and preaching. He showed views of the interior of China. Will Kitchen, the entertainer, gave half a dozen humorous readings, which kept the party in a laugh. The Rev. Harvey Klaer was toastmaster. There were no other speakers. The Rev. C. O. Bosserman, a former pastor, made the invocation. He and E. J. Stack pole were guests of the brotherhood. Sixty-one were present.
