THE CHINESE IN AUSTRALIA.
"FANTASTIC TYPES
OF BELIEF."
DR. BARNES'S VIEWS.
Preaching to an overflowing con- gregation at Allerton on the occa sion of the Liverpool diocesan jubilee, the Bishop of Birmingham (Dr. Barnes) said few could be ignorant of the moral and intel- lectual disturbance that now. exist- ed in England, but he was sure 3 that fundamental moral instincts had not been blunted or destroy- @cd.
G
Every disturbance of established idens made for religious disorder, and in the turmoil superstition had S revived. Religion had degenerated, 1 and fantastic types of belief, such as apiritualism, Christian Science," 10 and magical sacramentalism, had gained new vitality. These crudities showed that the changes of out- look due to enlarged knowledge, while they enlightened the wise only drove the simple and convinced enthusiasts to resuscitate moribund fancies.

Frankly, I did not expect the difference to be any thing more than ten shots, and even Grimmitt's rink, which I throught would come through with fying colours, had a hopeless tusk against the team-work of Basa's riak:

At tea time the difference was! 11 shots in favour of Craigengower on all rinks. Up to this time. the Civil Service premier rink and their next best (Gregory's rink) were both down by about the same number, while Brawn and Omar were just about equare. On arming, Craigengower went after the jack with a vengeance and out- bowled their opponents. Brad. bury, who was opposed to Gregory, had a

WHERE IS THE MONEY? GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP BET
TING MYSTERY.
Consternation and indignation were caused among golf enthu siasts in Roanoke, Virginia, by n cable from London bearing the sad tiding that a provincial pari-mutuel with which many persons had betted on the result of the British Open Championship has apparently vanished into thin air.
Several weeks ago an attractively worded circular was received by scores of American country clubs from the company in question, who were willing to bet as much as 150 to that the British hops, F. Robson (Cooden Beach) would not
"stars" win. Many American were also quoted, the lowest cdds being 10 to 1 against Bobby Jones. Many local fans" pooled their bets and sent the money over to Britain, one Virginian town being reported to have contributed $1,800 (£368). Naturally many Atlantans backed their fellow townsman, Bobby Jones.
Now everybody is wondering what has happened to their money.
