" 'Wealth' is purely and simply a relative term," said tho Bishop of Melanesia, Dr. Wood, when addressing tho Young AVomen's Christian Association Conference in Christchurcli on Friday evening. "Wherever one goes, one sees different stages of wealth. There may bo a wealthy man in this street, but in tho next street tho wealthy man of the community may bo in a very different position financially from his wealthy neighbour of the next street. Then, again, even in the slums of tho Baet End of London, there is the wealthy man, who, if he were in another quarter, would probably be ono of tho poor, or the poorer class. "Wealth, I say, is a relative term, and its valuo depends on the environment of tho man to whom tho term is applied. And that is why I. say that pno must be careful when using the term 'wealth.' " Two girls earn for the Government ono hundred times their salaries by going through tho waste-paper baskets 7n the Treasury Department at AVusliington. Their prize find Htis a £2000 United States gold bond.
