Sir Cland Severn said he thought the suggested mission was very good thing but it was no good having it if it was not well done. He had the opportunity off going home last year and he met on the voyage the Dean of Man- chester who had been on the mis- sion to India.

THE EVENING SESSION.

A Mission of Help Wanted? At the evening session the ebiel! speaker was Bishop Molony of Cheklang, who introduced the salc ject of the "Need of a Mission of Help in the Far East," and in the abrence of Blashop Ferguson-Davies : Singapore, who did not orgive in time to speak, went on to die- cuss "Some Practical Suggestions." The President, the Bishop of Vic- toria. again presided.

Bishop Molony aid he had been staying at the Peak for three days and so might be qualified to speak of Hongkong.j From the Peak he could look down on a view that was stimulating to Briton. He could see the Law Courts, the statue to the memory of the glorious dead. There were the statues in the square, one of Queen Victoria, whose memory, in spite of Mr. Strachey. they still revered. Britons could think .of what had been done here in the last eighty years and they had something of the feelings Nebuchadnezzar, "This is great Babylon." He had been asked to speak on the subject of the need of A Mission of Heip. Was it needed! All he could look down upon in Hongkong was not really Babylon; they were not purely material things he saw Those law ́çodi:- | stood for British justice in a land / where it was notorious that justice was difficult to obtain..

Civilization and religion had been brought here and placed be-| fore the Chinese. They should be proud of it, and thankful to God! that something has been done here. The Bishop, went on to speak of the position of the young man, who came from England to China. Here club life took the place of home life. At home he might never have tasted anything stranger than.scft drinks, but here he learned what cocktails 'and

Severn the matter was adjourned till a day later in the week when the Bishop of Singapore could be present to speak ca the matter.
