The Bishop mentioned the formation of a ladies' advisory Committee but the matter was left over. It is to be hoped that at an early date the services of women will be given a more prominent place. They could do most ex- cellent work for the Cathedral even perhaps better than they have done in the past-if their efforts were organised and given more recognition. Governmen by mere men is becoming delightfully ald fashioned,
We are glad to learn that an effort is shortly to be made to increase the size and scope of the Cathedral Church notes which are Issued monthly. There is an ex- cellent parish publication issued by St. Andrew's, Kowloon, and something s ambitious as this would doubtless be welcomed and widely read in Hongkong. MANGALA PRAYER.
