Rising costs are making themselves felt in every sphere, and they gave rise to a discussion in Prebytery in Auckland as to whether the clerk should continue to send to members as in the past the monthly agenda and minutes. Mr H. B. Burnett said the postage had doubled and the cost of the .paper used had doubled, and he estimated the extra annual cost of the present service at £5 or £6. The clerk of Presbytery, the Rev G. Budd, mentioned that the cost of the paper on which The Outlook is printed had increased 300 per cent. It was decided to effect a saving by having abbreviated agenda and minutes posted together instead of separately.
