Diocese of Auckland

(From our own Correspondent.) January 20. Owing to the unfortunate outbreak of infantile paralysis throughout the district all Catholic schools must remain closed indefinitely. This will be a very serious setback for the coming year, and it is unlikely that work will be resinned before the end of February. Several changes have been made in the staff of the Sacred Heart College. Brother Hippolyte, who has been with us for so long and is very, well-known throughout Auckland has been transferred to Christchurch. His loss is greatly regretted. Bro-

ther Benignus, formerly director of the College, ' has now taken charge of the Brothers’ Novitiate at Tuakau. The new arrivals here will be Brother ’ Palladins and Brother Martin. With the termination of the holidays and of the Retreat of the clergy now in progress at the Sacred Heart College, we may soon expect a resumption of Catholic activities for the coming year. Some of the parishes are already settling down to active preparations, and it is to he expected that with such an early start this will he a highly successful year from every point of view.
