Heard in New Hebrides

ome HE Rey. W. V. Milne, writing from Nguna, New Hebrides, says that they have had the privilege of hearing the Moderator’s voice over the wireless. "On Sunday, June 8, I turned on to Auckland. Service had already started, and it sounded Presbyterian, so I hung on, though the voice was very faint and static was bad. It was only between bursts of statie that I could hear anything at all. During the first reading, Isaiah 40, I called Mrs. Milne to come and listen because the voice sounded very like Mr, Budd’s. I was pretty sure of it when I heard him intimate that Mrs. Riddle, from India, whose father had been so long in the New Hebrides, would speak in the S.S. Hall. , We did not get any good of. the ser: mon, I am sorry to say, on account of static and the voice being so faint. Finally, it was announced from 1YA that it was the Rev. G. Budd preaching in St. David’s, so I was right in my supposition."
