ROTARY AND RELIGION.
PAPAL ANNOUNCEMENT. Christchurch, Yesterday. The seventh annual conference- of Notary Clubs opened this morning, when the delegates*were welcomed iby the Mayor (the Rev. J. Archer). The District Governor, Sir Alexander Roberts, in the course of an address, referred to the Papal announcement recently published. He said that it had caused the greatest surprise to all Rotarians in this country. The movement cared nothing for either' creed or politics. In every clu'b there were many religions, and All creeds worked together with one object. It would be a great disaster if anything occurred to upset the harmony at present existing. In his own club in Wellington he could not tell the religion of one-quarter of the members, no more than their political leaning's. It was a great pity that the question should ever have been raised. He hoped that the fiftythird district would be well clear of it.
