In praising the Y.M.C.A. work in Egypt, Major-General Sir Alexander Godley wrote: "Your efforts to provide shelter, refreshments, facilities for correspondence, literature, etc., have been wonderfully successful, and I am very glad to express how much we are all indebted to you and your association for making our stay here such a pleasant one." In order that this valuable work among New Zealand's soldiers at home and abroad may be extended, the Wellington Y.M.C.A. is organising a "Rose Day," to be held on November 12 and 13. To ensure the success of this effort large quantities of flowers will be required, something like 60,000 roses and 10,000 carnations being the aim of the committee. These flowers will not be wanted before November 11, but in the meantime intending donors are asked to inform Mr. A. Verney, general secretary, Y.M.C.A., of their willingness to assist. • FEAR OF NASTY MEDICINE. The fear of having to take a nasty medicine causes many a child to hide irregularity of the bowels. Chamberlain's Tablets are so pleasant and easy to take and so free from harsh effect that they can be given with safety to children. Every mother should keep Chamberlain's Tablets in her medicine chest. Sold by all chemists and storekeepers. "The time is coming," said Dean Carrington at the Anglican Synod meeting in Christchurch, "when the Church will have to depend far more than it does now on single clergymen." The problem of stipends, he said, was greatly increased by the number of married men in the clergy. The single man could take the rough with the smooth, but the married man had duties to others than himself. As he went through the country parishes of the diocese it was a source of continual wonder to him how some of the clergy managed to "make both ends meet" and keep a cheerful countenance. He hoped that the laity would make more generous offers to the clergy of gifts in kind, and that the clergy would not think it not the correct thing to accept these gifts.
