The session of the Presbyterian Assembly just concluded was noticeable for its placidity (according to the Dunedin "Star”). Very larely’ was the contentious note heard. Not often was the Moderator called on for a ruling. The ut-arost approach to a warm debate was over tho Bible-in-schools question. Two or three speakers spoke so seriously as to suggest that they courted the stake and the faggot. But it was only their way. When the vote was put the voices were apparently all in favour of the committee’s proposal to withdraw from the league’s platform; and it was only after repeated inquiry that the minority of three declared themselves, one of the three doing so in words which said plainly that he was no longer to be counted with the opposition. It seemed to be a case of instantaneous conversion all round after hearing the convener of the committee. Perhaps the feature of the Assembly business was the single-handed fighting of the treasurer against apnoals for unauthorised and sometimes illegal generosity in dealing with the funds. The Rev. W. J. Comrie, in his own nice way, had repeatedly to tell his unworldly brethren that twice two is not five. The laying of the electric transmission lino from Waipori to Milton being completed, the men who were on that work are now- employed in helping the others to' push on t'he pole-laying on tlie Peninsula (reports the Dunedin "Star”). Macandrew’s Bay is connected and lit, and the E.P. and 1,. Committee hopes to have the light into Broad Bay and Portobello before the summer season is over. The supply of light and power to Milton entails work and negotiating, and it will probably be a little while before the power is actually turned on there. Several very interesting meetings were held at the Salvation Army Citadel yesterday. on the occasion of the voung people’s anniversary. Brigadier Hoare, who for the past nine years has filled the position of youn- people’s secretary for the Dominion, was in charge of all the meetings. The children, under the baton of Mr. J. Kirk, rendered excellent songs throughout the day, «nd gave an attractive programme of vocal items to a largo audience in the afternoon. Tonight another excellent programme of action songs, recitations, and vocal items will be rendered.
