LORD’S PRAYER
RECITAL IN WELLINGTON SCHOOLS [Per United Press Association.] WELLINGTON, September 18. Though, in the opinion of the chairman, the motion had the effect of making the board usurp the function of Parliament, the Wellington Education Board this morning, by 11 votes to 3, resolved that in future all schools in the board’s district be opened each morning with the Lord’s Prayer, subject to the approval of the school committees and the head teachers concerned. The board deferred to next meeting consideration of representations by various bodies on tne decision to refuse the Navy League permission to enter the schools during school hours. A deputation from the R.S.A. urged that the motion be rescinded.
