Several native artists have con- tributed, but the scheme is the conception of a new stamp artist, who has evolved a distinctive pro- cess of stamp printing, and intro- duced a new stamp printery. The work has been done in Vienna-a far ery from the Arctic Circle.

"But when I look round the con- gregations I notice there are quite as many young people as any other kind. I dare say they don't go as much as they used to, or as much as they ought, but they do go to church as much as anybody else.", Modern youth was extremely sensitive to any lack of reality in religion, and young people to-day were critical of the ways in which prayera and praise were conducted. "Therefore", added the Arch. bishop, "do not let us sink to being merely, animated gramophones."
