Canon Sparrow Simpson, who opened the debate referred to St Paul's writing on the position of women, "and said it was no derogation to women when St. Paul said, "Let women keep silence in the church" They must have overwhelm THURSDAYS - ing evidence that St. Paul was in con- flict with the teaching of Christ when hel laid down the injunction. The guidance of other ancient Churches in Christendom was against women preachers. Either it "must be contended thng the fauetion of men and women in the church was, the samo or that it was different. "If the former, there was no place in the hier- archy of the Church from which women could be excluded. He could imagine it conceivable, certainly permissible—that in such a case his Grace of Canterbury. should at some date marry her Grace of York, so that the two provinces of the Anglican communion should be united in the domestic sphere sa in the ecclesiasti.. cal sphere. (Laughter.)

Mrs. Pagot, in a paper on the same.. subject, declared that she was opposed to the priesthood for women, and yet was convinced by practical experience that women were called to take up and use the spiritual gifts given at baptism, con- firmation, and communion, as much in the Church na in the State. To meet the present urgent needs they as women were offered the deaconesa; but it was also necessary that every big parish, should have its woman worker, who must have a fair salary, a pension scheme, and fair conditions of work; and she must be trained and qualified.

."

The Rev. A. V. Magee said, when they were told that the Churches had been slowly prepared for the bour-which had now come when the public offices of the Church should be thrown open to women, the sufficient answer of Church people was: We have no such custom, neither have the Churches of God." No conces sions from Lambeth or elsewhere would satisfy those who had determined to pro- mote the priesthood of women at all coste and hazards. There were grave pay- chological reasons for refusing to extend the ministry to women in the Church, and he saw a growing lack of womanliness in those who moved much and spoke often. in the turmoil of public life. (Some cries of dissent.)

Canon Guy Rogers, Vicar of West Ham, aaid when women showed a growing sense of vocation for the ministry, he believed they were in the presence of something natural, human, and apparently God- directed-not sometching warped, blas- phemous, and wicked. He did not agree that in the study of this subject they must begin with St. Paul. If it were proved that the call to women was of God, it could not eventually be denied.

LONDON STREETS.

It may be, as the National Geographic' Society seeks to prove, that New York is properly to be glassified as a larger city than London, but, anys the New York Times, in its wealth of streets and street names the British capital is far superior, An article in Cornhill Magazine reckons the number of Londoe street names at
