LL the fun of the Fair is in full swing at the various sites where the Chinese New Year Fair is being held this year. Stallholders are having a much better trade turn-over this year, than was the case in 1936; when a number of tho participants failed to carry through their enterprise until Chinese New Year's Eve.

Successive sessions have discussed the matter al length since the pre- sentation of the repart of the Joint) Committee on the Church and Mar- riage to the Convocations in June, 1935.

Recent events have brought leading Churchmen to the view that it is more than ever necessary for the Church to draw up a final, un- equivocal code, which will lay down definite principles from which there will be

no departure, for com- municant members of the Church of England.

A verdict of death by misadventure was returned.
