SUPERINTENDENT’S LETTERS.

KYAW, RUSTIC. Dear Fellow -W orkoi s,--At last Convention 1 was appointed Superintendent of Evangelistic Department. This year, almost more than ever before, the need for th's department is manifest; therefore 1 would urge all our Unions to appoint a local Superintendent to look after the spiritual part of their work. There is so much sorrow in the* world, caused by the terrible war, that we need to pray much, and intercessory services might be arranged for, with Bible readings or addresses. The sick should be visited in their homes, hospitals, or other institutions, for there are lonely hearts to cherish as the days are going by. W ill all Unions be sure to notify me of any work done in this department ? Yours in the Master’s service, M. A. JOHNSTON WRIGHT.

NOTABLE DAYS. “Franchise Day” is on September iqth. The collection goes to our N.Z. Fund. Those in need of an educational paper for that afternoon will see in Mrs Young’s list in last June number several most suitable, such as “Has the Enfranchisement of Women Made Any Material Difference to N.Z. Politics?” “Work for the Enfranchised,” “Women as Citizens,” “The Fitness of Women for the Franchise,” also “Woman: Her Power.” We trust new papers will be written by some of our women for that date; also, w here it is possible, su table addresses given. It is we ll to refer to our back numbers, illy our special Franchise number, which is very interesting and instructive. Trusting you may have happy and profitable meetings when celebrating “Franchise Day.”- Yours in the* work, L. HARRISON, Supt. Notable Days.
