}

PREACHES AND MEETS CONGREGATION

There was a large congregation at St. Andrew's Church, Kowloon, last evening, when the Right Rev. Bishop Ronald Hall paid his first visit to the church. Prayers were said by the Vicar, the Rov. W. Walton Rogers, and Mr. J.H. Hunt, O.B.E. Lay Reader, while the Bishop read the second lesson and also preached.

The Blahop took ng his text "We are no more Borvants, but sons," and "Christ divested Him- self of Illa Glory and camo em bodied us a son."Modern science, he sald, did not drive out faith in God. We must be servanta song, and in the top storey of man's soul was the sure belief in God's fatherhood, in the ordering of the world, and a rejection of blind causation without design.

Subsequently, a reception was held in the Chruch Hall, when members of the congregation were, Introduced to the Bishop.

ENJOYABLE TEA DANCE AT SHAMEEN

Shameon, Jan. 7. The sailors from the gunboats stationed in Canton wore onter- tained to a tea dance yesterday by the ladies of Shameen at the Canton Club. The afternoon was such a success that extension was grant ed to the men who were allowed to stay longer than the leave grant- ed them.

The Churchwardens also spoke -briefly, saying how much they hoped the Bishop would be able to visit them fcquently, and, if possible in a few canes in their homes, as he had himself express. ed a wish. On the other hand the enormous extent of the dio- cese was rentised and the immense nature of the Bishop's task.

The Bishop, in reply said that it greatly heartened him to feel that St. Andrew's congregation had made him one of themselves. That was what he wished. Bishop Hall appealed again to all friends to "pass the time of day" when they saw him and to forgive him If he failed to remember them per- Honally. Friendship of this kind would be a real help to him.

The result was that seats near the piano were always in great demand at his recitals, for his comments were usually quaint and amusing. He spoke Russian, French and English, which he was apt to use indiscriminately, taking n word from one language when he could not recall it in the other. He recalled with pride his friend ship with Liszt and the fact that after he had played to Wagner a Chopin Ballade the great composer said to him: "One day, my child, you will be the greatest pianist in the world."

An impressive group of public men, civil servants, and scientists appeared on the platform to plead for more biology in education. Viscount Chelmsford, Sir Stephen Tallents, Sir Walter Fletcher, Sir William Hardy, Professor A. V. Hill, and other speakers showed that they were concerned with the world's prosent social crisis, and were looking. to biology to give youth biological outlook which

Professor Hill contended that as human beings are living beings, they themselves and their society could not be understood without Civilisation, he said, biology.

was a product of a certain sort of biological organism, ourselves, and was therefore a biological entity. Consequently, civilisation was incomprehensible without n knowledge of biology.

A Pressing Need. The Rev. S. A. McDowall open- ed a discussion on the methods of teaching biology. He is the biology master at Winchester College, and spoke on the pro- blem as he saw it in a public Achool. He stated his belief that while the supply of suitable biology courses was one of the most pressing needs in public schools, these courses should come Inte in the general science course. The boy was human and most humanly interested in his body: he was also humanly rational and wanted to know something of his mind and its place in the universe. He wanted to know something of | the functions of digestion, spiration, and secretion. Such a course required a previous study of physics and chemistry, and u fairly developed mind. For this Buitable reason biology was not aubject for school certificate ex- aminations,

Dr. R. H. Crawley, Senior Medical Officer of the Board of Education, related the teaching of biology in elementary schools with

public health. New health educa- tion, he said, was no simple mat- ter, and it could not be

done without being grounded in biology. The contemporary discussions of sex-teaching in schools, were real- ly a result of the failure to teach biology properly. Every child who left school at fourteen years of age should have a clear know ledge of the function of sex in; Animals, plants, and himself,

Mr. D. Ward Cutler, biologist to the Rothamsted Experimental Station, argued that biology lent itself to interesting teaching, especially for young children. They were usually interested in animals, and this interest might be used as the foundation for sound teaching. It was necessary to realise that human beings were the product of evolution, and that their nature was based on animal nature. No child should leave school without knowing this. When the relation of human and animal nature was understood the pupil came to see that evolution and civilsation were a product of. aclf-control.
