An old woman was before the Auckland Police Court the other day charged with fyeing unlawfully on the premises, the said premises being All Saints' Church. It must be mentioned that the old girl Was shikkered at the time. It's coming to something, though, when the House of God cannot be sought as a haven of rest from the outside wicked and wearying world. Time was when churches were never closed and were .sanctuaries for all-comers. Truly this is a degenerate age.
