WHY MONEY IS SHORT
UNREST THE CAUSE BISHOP WILL MEET GRANTS When the question of the curtailing of grants to the baekblocks was under discussion to-day, Mr. Wynyard said that, if they could remove the unrest the finances would improve. The Rev. R. L. Connolly, Cambridge, said that the shortage of money was not due to the meanness of the people, but to another cause which had been touched on. Mrs. D. Hay, St. Peter’s, was referring to an incident at a chapter meeting. and mentioned Dean Barnett. The dean rose to a point of order, but was ordered to sit down by the bishop. Mr. Hay went on to say that some did nothing but pull things to pieces. He urged all to do right and the difficulties would then disappear. “Let’s get back to Christian duties.” Mr. W. O. Garland. Matamata, was making a reference to the bishop resigning, but was ruled out of order. After the motion had been passed the bishop said he was not going to let the grants fail. What he could not collect he would pay himself. Synod adjourned for lunch and in the afternoon the laity will continue their conference with the bishop.
