A Facetious Cleric
In the course of remarks at the welcome social to Synod delegates at St. Paul's Church, Cambridge, on Tuesday night, the chairman, the Rev. W. J. Oxbrow, caused hearty laughter at the expense of the New Zealand Railways, when he said that he fully realised the extent of the South Auckland Methodist territory for he often had to make long and tedious journeys by rail. On one occasion he was complaining at the slowness of •the trains to a friend. His friend had replied that he should be the last to crlticise tlfe New Zealand railways as they were actually mentioned in the Bible. It said, "God made all creeping things."
