It is estimated that £40,- 000 will require to be spent. Al- ready £18,000 has been contributed and promised by members or the congregation and £3,000 has so far been received from the public.

Demolition work was begun on September 30 and is still going on. Two-thirds of the dividing stone wall which must be removed to restore the church to its original size (at present it consists of an "east and a west portion) have been demolished, and when this work is finished, within the next week or so, it will be possible to obtain the necessary particulars to enable the plans for the restoration to be pro- ceeded with. The entire scheme of demolition and restoration is in the hands of Mr. James Miller, F.R.I.- B.A., Glasgow, a member of the church. The restoration work will include the erection of a new '£7,- 000 organ, the gift of an anony- mous subscriber.

The entire length of the restored edifice will be 196ft. The north and south aisles which extend throughout the length of the build- ing, .are constructed with stone groining.

Unfortunately certain portions of the original masonry were removed or destroyed to pro- vide accommodation for the vestries and session house, which have been constructed over what is now the entrance vestibule to both churches. These defects will be rectified by the restoration. The organ, which at present occupies a position in the apse in the East Church, will be removed, and a new organ chamber will be provid- ed in the north transept; the choir stalis will be placed in front of the organ, while the organ consale, instead of being directly attached to the instrument; will be placed in a position immediately opposite, where the organist will command a full view of his choir and also of the pulpit.

TWO CHURCHES IN ONE

It is not known then the first church was erected on the site of the Holy Rude. There is, however, definite evidence of a twelfth- century. building in a charter by King David I, states Mr. David B. Morris, Town Clerk of Stirling. In 1406 a great fire destroyed Stir- ling and the church was burned. A new chufch was erected by stages, stretching over a consider- able period. On July 29, 1567, the infant King James VI was crown- ed in church, John Knox preach ing the sermon and the crown be Ing held over the young king's hend by the Earl of Mar, ancestor of the chairman of the present Na- tional Restoration Committee. At the Reformation the church had. the good fortune to escape the ruthless violence of the reforming mob, to be preserved for the future accommodation of Presbyteria worshippers.

Death is attributed to heart fai- lura

Captain Wistina was born in Larvik in 1871. He went to sea at the age of 16, joined the Marina Corps at Horten in 1882, and took up whaling in Icelandic waters in 1993

It was in 1909 that Wisting came Into touch with Amundsen, and in the following spring he joined the explorer in the Fram expedition to the Bauth Pole.

He was one of the four men se pr lected by Amundsen to accompany him across the ice to the Pole, and was present when the Norwegian flag was hoisted there.

Flow In The Norge During the World War, Wisting served at Horten until December 1917, when he joined the Polar ship Maud as mate.. He remained with the Maud until the end of its prolonged drift in the Arctic ice In 1925 and for the last four years was its captain."

The ship was held in the ice- pack for two years while attempt ing to drift across the Polar Sea.

In 1928, Wisting WES with Amundsen and Nobile in the air ship Norge on its fight over the North Pole. After his return home from this trip, he was raised to the rank of naval captain, but only served actively in that capacity until June 1928.

NEW USE FOR

HELIUM

Tests On Asthma Patients

Hellum gas is best known as the non-infiammable light gas used for filling airships. It is now, an- nounced in the current issue of "The Lancet” tbat a novel use has been found for helium as a gas for treating certain respiratory diseases.

By mixing hellum and oxygen so that the latter gas is present in the same percentage "as in at- mospheric air it is possible to ob- tain a gas mixture which is only one-third the density of air- helium being so much lighter than the

atmospheric nitrogen. With

the less dense oxygen mixtures obtained by using helium sa the diluent patients with respiratory difficulty have to use much iesa muscular effort.

Great Cost

In the treatment of the severer attacks of asthma the hellum- uxygen mixtures are said to give relief when all other measures have failed; and in cases with ob- struction of the respiratory ap- paratus it is stated that use of the

new mixture has in some Instan- ces obviated the necessity for the operation of trachetomy whereby an artificial emergency opening is made below the larynx.

The only difficulty about the use of helium in this way has been its great cost, but it is stated that in the United States, where these Bill has already passed several experiments have been made, a

The division of the building into twa churches in 1658 was the re- sult of an ecclesiastical upheaval in 1855-56 over election of a minis- ter. The Rev. James Guthrie, with one or two elders and a minority of the incorporations, ap- pointed Robert Rule as his suc- cessor in opposition to the great body of the inhabitants. Feeling rose high, and it is stated that on one occasion the mob rose against Guthrie as he was going to church. and pelted him with stones and mud.
